Phase3 Vaporizers

Chicken No Name

Dazed and confused
Bodged together a stand for the zx from a CH stand and a reducer or chopped downstem.

In my case I cut the downstem so I had just the top. As this was a slightly loose fit I wrapped with PTFE/teflon tape to create a snug fit. Note: I have 3 Ch stands and all had a different id so be aware when fitting the glass.



Seems to work fine.





My only concerns are:
Thermal expansion of 3 different materials. I don't want the zx head to crack. So far no sticking of zx to glass. Slides out easy.

PTFE tape over heating. Safe op temp is advertised as 500f, which is what I have my pid at. But that is the coil temp, and not how hot the head gets. Using my infrared thermometer the hottest part of the glass interface is 200f and the Ch stand doesn't get hotter than 100f so I think the PTFE tape is fine.

Been using a few days now and no issues so far with sticking head or smells from PTFE tape.

ZXL work with the CH PID ? Wick kind of stand for it ? CH hangar sit post work ?

i love this idea! i have some reducers on the way, maybe i will try this! minus the ptfe tape maybe some high temp silicone might work depending on the temp rating
