I bought a backpack with built in battery and was wondering if it would charge my shiny new pinnacle pro which arrives today? Here are the specs and the manufacturer website.

Powerbag BackPack website: http://www.mypowerbag.com/backpacks/backpack.html

  • Battery: 3000mAh Lithium Polymer, weight: 0.2 lbs
  • Input: 12VDC, 1.2A
  • Micro-USB, Mini-USB Output: 5VDC, 800mA combined
  • Apple Connector Output: 5VDC, 1A
  • USB Output: 5VDC, 1-2.1A

They also have a newer version which I didnt buy that may work too. Can you tell me which one would work? Hopefully both. See here: http://www.mypowerbag.com/backpacks/backpack-6000.html

  • Battery: 6000mAh Lithium Polymer, weight: 0.4 lbs
  • Input: 12VDC, 1.2A
  • Micro-USB, Mini-USB Output: 5VDC, 800mA combined
  • Apple Connector Output: 5VDC, 1A
  • USB Output: 5VDC, 1-2.1A

Hi @Engineering, I was hoping you could give me feedback on the post above. If that the backpack charger would not work, how about this charger? http://www.plxdevices.com/product_info.php?id=MOBLLEGION110

I been lurking the forums for a few years now. I used to have an account here before but I forgot my username. Anyways, I am thinking of getting a Pinnacle Pro because I am so fed up smoking all the time. Just a few questions really. How does this device handle the following substances?

Shatter
Wax
Budder
Hash

What is the best website for me to purchase one of these items ? I understand there is a black friday sale coming up. To be honest, my choices for what vape to purchase next are arizer solo or ascent. PAX is out of the question because a friend of mine just bought one and i have been using his for a bit. Impressed with that, but if i were to read these forums, it looks Pinnacle Pro looks better overall.

I been out of the vape scene for a while now. I used to own a VaporGenie (wooden one). Enlighten me.

Speaking from my history you will NOT be dissapointed in the SOLO. I will tell you that after seeing a few very trusted members speak highly of the pinnacle it made me decide to sell the SOLO for a pinnacle.

If your more of a concentrate user though it seems the pinnacle is a better choice than the solo.

@TherealVaporblunt, before you post the details of your bf sale,
I would recommend that you put a link to your online store in your sig.
:tup:

If I was to heat it up, take about 3 draws and then turn it off, would the pinnacle still cook my herb that was in the chamber? Would it be better just to take out the bullet each time I take a break?

You can limit that effect by turning the pnp off after the first hit or two,
then draw a hit or two while it's cooling down.

I appreciate your honesty. As I stated before, i been lurking these forums for a while now and I know or at least sense the more trusted members. I thought about going with the SOLO but I don't like the glass tube. Question, why did the original Pinnacle get so much bad reviews? I understand that the PRO (this one) is much better overall. Sometimes when i read reviews from other websites, a lot of people are somewhat biased towards this product due the previous version but this particular product seems like the "under dog" when it comes to portable vapes which is why I am leaning towards this unit. It's getting a heck of whole lot good reviews.

Just pulled the trigger and ordered the Pn Pro from Planetavape With the 10% off got it for $215 total with Free Shipping..

Will now wait for the Black Friday sale and pick up the WT(Hopefully 20% off)

2 Questions..

Been reading page 50 forward of this thread..

1. So most people never stir their Bullet correct? No need to?
2. How long does a well packed(not too packed) bullet last?


Thanks.. Cant wait to get it..

No need to stir. The only time I counted I got 42 hits on level 2 with a pretty solid pack. It has an auto shut off after 8 minutes so I would say the 42 hits took me about 25 minutes.

I have a pinnacle hydrotube question and hope it is ok to ask here. I bought the tube for $50 during the recent sale from their ebay seller. It seems that the water does not all drain from the top chamber into the water chamber, almost like the holes are too small at the bottom. I was at my buddies earlier today and his didnt have any water on top (it splashes your face a lot). Has anyone else had this issue or know of a fix? I have tried cleaning it with alcohol and using distilled water but no luck.

I watched the video. About to try wax for first time. Can you give me a step by step to use the pnp with wax. How much wax to put in the fmj? What temp to start on? Do I heat it up with rhe fmj in or out? Thanks.

i wish i could answer you with confidence but i posted my first time experience with wax in the FMJ a few pages back i will say, unless my technique was flawed (which i will fully admit it might be) i was not pleased with the way my pong got so messed up using wax in the FMJ. my pong is so messed up i have to buy a new one and that was with only ONE use of wax in the FMJ. the outer ring of what hold the screen in is degraded and not smooth anymore. it feels like it melted some but i am not going to say that is for sure what happened. i cleaned away all the wax residue the best i could using 70% iso on a q-tip and the surface feel rough and not smooth anymore. looking at it closely it looks likes its "breaking down" i am not sure what exactly or how to describe it but i know until i read something that makes me go "ah ha" i will not be using wax in the FMJ again

Thanks for the reply. If I end up with a better experience I will let you know.

M, I think maybe you got an old pong, bunch a pages back there is is side by side of new and old. Your looking for a thick wall just like the MP. They'll send you the right one. I haven't been using it as much but so far so good on the new thick walled one.

its a thick walled one. i bought my unit used from @VaPeD&CoNfUsEd and he gave me extra pongs and i compared the thickness of them all 2 were old OG pinnacle pongs and i gifted them to a friend who needed them. the other two were thick walled ones and one of those two were the one i used and is messed up. i still have one more thick walled one but have decided not to use it for anything other than herbs

Can somone answer my question please. Is it too harsh to hit at around 390 degrees without the water tube?
I dont have one yet but Id like to know this as well???
390 Is this considered setting 2 or 3 ????
What setting produces the combination of nice clouds and smoothness?

Thanks in advance

Oh shit. So even the newest ones are doing it. That sucks.

Are plastic and iso usually incompatible?

Iso never seemed to hurt the plastic parts of the pax as I recall...

I actually got lucky and happened to fo in a store and buy the last one. I've had the pro since beginning of october. I'll share my experience so far.
I vape mostly on 2 or the 390 setting. More than enough for one. Different flowers poduce different clouds. I suggest packing whatever you plan to smoke straight through. I deliver pizza and I put a little in each bullet (I have 6) and then I wrap foil over tge top and put them in a little container. I would imagine I put .1 or so in. Less than halfway full.
That will last me through the 8 minute timer. That seems to work better than packing it full and having multiple sessions.
If I am with others I will pack it full light tamp, and turn it on 3 with the water tube. I also turn it up a level to make sure I get it all.

I have been using it on setting 3 with no water tube and i dont find it very harsh at all, I never use water filtration when i vape but i dont find it any more or less harsh than my other vapes. It tickles my throat a little bit but not bad at all.

Depending on the quality of herb I've had a well packed bullet last for 3 sessions.
