That looks quite nice, thanks for linking - screwball handles confirmed to fit the pinch hitter?
You could check with them but I can't think why it wouldn't, unless they've chosen coils from different mfrs.

I think I'd like to sell my Pinch Hitter heater (not the pid or the bowl). I'm feeling like going wireless is in my future. :) I would get the heater that Vapvana is calling their Ace Heater, and put together a hot-hole from somewhere.

Good day folks. It looks like the Pinch Hitter is not listed on Vapvana's site and may be discontinued.
The Pinch Hitter bowl has been renamed to the Screwball 15mm hybrid bowl. I am an Early Adopter
since August 3rd 2024. The smaller head was made the same size as the bowl. It is more then is needed
to fully vape one hit and be done or several smaller smooth pulls. The Screwball double the rubes with
the 3.5mm changed to a 2.5mm size. The difference in price includes the Screwball Hybrid Bowl and bigger
SQP all for $130 more. The Pinch Hitter at $259 made it affordable. You would think there would be a solid
market for less then the $389 price range with excellent safe and rapid flavorful extraction. What should I
recommend at the $250 price point with similar results?

Under $250 for an injector made by the same manuf in China, I'd say the Ruby Twist. 2.5mm rubies. Fits several common bowl types and even works as a diffuser with the right glass. It can be had for well-under $200 on most shops currently.

"For added safety, The Pinch Hitter features an auto shut-off function, which you can activate by pressing the centre button five times. It’s a great feature to prevent accidental overheating."

However, if I press the minus button 5 times while it is off, a menu pops up that allows me to enter a number from 000 to 999. What is this menu for??

These friggen matrix bowls from Vapvana are one of the worst triggers for the OCD that cannabis is supposed to help treat.

Do other people just not take them apart to clean them? I so rarely use them, cos they get stuck - even with replacement bowls with replacement o-rings, and the once a month I do bring one out quickly reminds me of how much stress and anxiety the inability to get it apart and properly clean it causes.

I would love to know other people's experience of it. Did other people end up getting replacement bowls and/or o-rings that resolved the problem?

the day i got both my hybrid bowls (pinch hitter and normal) i tried swapping out the joints for 18mm since they came in 14 and both my 18mm adapters broke instantly. the 14mm i have in now (that i have to use with an adapter) are basically impossible to remove now and i think i'd break them if i tried too hard.
i DO like the halfbowl size on the bigger hybrid bowl and the formfactor of the pinchhitter one but i prefer 18mm airflow so yeah... similar experience here.
