Sublimator or "a log" your thoughts?

[Vapor_Eyes]

Think the sub is out of the running to much work and to much expense (yes it still boils down to money haha) shown the homegrown log and s3 to the better half she loves the log look so think I'm onto a winner there but the s3 fills her mind with danger because of the torch, heat given off by the heat sink etc. We don't have kids but have a dog and a carpet to think of, I get where she's coming from I suppose but hitting that thing would be epic .

Aesthetics shouldn't come into it but I'm afraid it does to a point, I'd sooner have a plug in s3 but I'm not sure if they are available, thought ed was in the process of creating one that plugs into a wall and looks a bit more "normal"

I don't want to make the decision more complicated, but I would like to recommend the Sticky Brick in place of the Supreme if you are worried about aesthetics and safety.

I definitely want a Supreme eventually, but I probably wouldn't use it regularly because of the drawbacks. I bought my Brick to use as a special occasion vape and I find myself using it all the time now, it's just a great vape all around. Instant on demand convection, it's butane but you're not heating anything but air so it's a lot safer. The glass heat intake gets hot but it cools quickly.

The brick hits hard, it's no Evo/Sub/Supreme but out of the vapes I own it hits the hardest. And aesthetically they are just awesome!

Ok guys I've sent homegrown logs (Rasta) a PM with regard a order from me, still yet to hear back but I'm sure he won't take to long to get in line, fiancé is happy I've at least picked that one. As for the supreme v3 haven't heard back yet about them being in stock, despite the aesthetic limitations it looks like it hits like a train so it's still viewed by me as a possible purchase.

Sticky brick is another choice to consider but I'm still very much in flavour the supreme overall cheers @Vapor_Eyes

Ed at supreme got back to me last night turns out I can order one direct from him sent via usps international tracking so it's looking like the supreme is getting sorted now for the log, still nothing back and he's been online I'm guessing he's busy chopping wood

I know rasta over at hgl has had some health issues recently so may be why hes not answered.

Its not going to be an instant process eith hgl (mines being built currently) but it will be worth the wait.

S3 looks interesting i would love to hit one. Not sure about the aesthetics though?

How much in sterling all in shipped for a s3?

I'm aware of hgl having some health problems and being snowed under with orders probably isn't helping matters much, I check every so often to see what he's been doing (believe me when I say I'm not a stalker ) and see he's been online for a few hours then off again I'd inviting he's responding to PM most of that time. I have zero trouble waiting in line being British we are accustom to such things .

That's the biggest down side I feel for the supreme but if you can get over it which I'm sure once hit you no doubt will you'll be more than happy with it sitting on the table beside you, it's a funny looking contraption that's for damn sure. As for payment and price ed sent me a email stating how to pay but not the price, price I beleive is $150 for the starter kit which includes one bowl, he suggested getting at least one more for $12 each, add to that the postage of $35 tracked via usps from Cali it comes in at close to makes no difference $200.

Cost in sterling is around the £150 give or take, PayPal will also charge a nominal fee for exchanging from pounds to dollars at least they did with my Milaana which was around £12. So all in all I'd say around £160 all in

Ye it starts to add up a little bit shipping over from US especially with poor exchange rate atm. Watch you dont get caught with import duties either (not quite sure how they work tho)

Just realised you wanted something for bubble .. maybe a vapman w heat station might be fun ... just throwing more options at you to confuse you haha!

 

[anasrzi]

Always confused me @VapourHaze i don't mind you adding to the confusion hehe. Yeah ed did mention import tax to me and to take note it may apply however I got a Milaana a good while back and as I said to ed they didn't charge me anything for import on that, it was around £125 all in so I'm not sure what rules apply with regard importing stuff (no doubt they make it up as they go along).

Even with that considered overall I don't feel it's a big price not to be paid, I mean if you look at any sub rig or even the standalone adapt a kit your talking towards £400 at least (with the adapter kit you need a glass piece too, cheap dh gate one would be fine and of course cheap) but a rig with all the bells and whistles is likely to set you back a cool £500 for a similar extraction process compared to £160 or so plus possible taxes, for that I could even get a vap man, supreme and log with change to spare

 

[VapourHaze]

Exactly .. sub just cant justify the price tag for me.

My suggestion would be the Supreme 3!
It is a vape that requires a butane/propane torch to heat the exchanger.

I asked someone on the Supreme forum to comment on how similar it is to the Sub and the responses were really good towards the S3! Apparently it hits like a sub can and it is a super potent vape!
Amazing flavor and HUGE clouds!!
Some videos i made at different temps to see vapor density:

And this excellent one from member @IAmKrazy2

Who made the glass in your second and third videos?

Who made the glass in your second and third videos?

I originally bought mine as "American Made" glass from the States quite a few years back...
Live and learn and find FC and here it is, the exact same piece of glass for 1/4 the price!

It's a really sweet piece of glass with very low diffusion and i like the 19mm joint on top!
Sometimes i will place my HydraTube on top for those monster cool hits!

i do the same thing with my Supreme 3 and my Log vapes when i owned them!

 

[anasrzi]

Finally given in and have ordered a supreme as my next home based vaporizer and I can't wait to try it out, I'll be getting a log vape as well from homegrown logs too in the future will be a race for both to get to my door for some serious testing .

For me the form factor of the supreme does leave a little to be desired it's a funny looking piece of kit from the offset, if I had to describe it I'd be hard pushed to get it into words but it's function that's more important over form and I feel once I've blasted off with the s3 once I'll warm to her obscure nature.

Will be looking thru wood thanks to hgl very soon, will be a hard decision on which to go with they all look so good. Thanks be to you guys too for all the help good to know there's sound vaping advice out there when needed .
