Hey, just got my Extreme Q the other day after about a year plus with the MFLB. Has anybody tried inserting the whip into a homemade bottle bong with a little carb on the side. This worked wonders with the MFLB and the Q has a fan so maybe it would be better.
Bob, first of all welcome to the forum! Mon!
The Q will work fine with a homemade bong, but the fan won't do shit for you with water. There is no real need for the fan anyways though when you're using water IMO.
Ok thanks mon! l will try the bong when i get to use the Q. Do you find the bong to be a more effective way of medicating than the whip/bags?
damn that's cool..Buildozer: I've done simliar thing, without stuffing silicone into vapor-path, nearer to the heater, better for inverse hitting:

I use this modded bowl personally every time and it's working great. The most herb-conserving bowl I have. Such a tiny ammount that can do it's job in so few hits.
Oldie, although i like how it hits, i noticed more congestion from the warm water bonging.. so i'm officially done w/ it ha.. liked it for about a week though... allergies might have played a little part in it too.IIRC Pappy started a thread about this, or more likely it was included in a broader health-related discussion. I'm pretty sure his doc cautioned against using warm water. Something about opening up the bronchi and making one more vulnerable to infection (???). I know it's popular with some folks, but Pappy's input convinced me not do it: When you're like we are, gotta take extra care.
*edit*sorry if this counts as a double post?
Right on m0sh... that's how i got mine, i plan to do the same thing when i eventually upgrade. the gift that keeps on giving ha
EDIT: ^^^haha, couldnt say bye huh
^^^ Cursed by the EQ!! haaEvery time I want to sell it, another vape of mine dies lol...
I only ever need to clean the elbows and screens. The unit it's self never gets dirty one bit BUT I only do elbow packs. I'm sure if your packing the bowl a lot then you would need to clean the bowl now and then. Once you move past the stock pvc whips and on to the silicone it's very easy to reach all that good so very good reclaim. Yeah I would say it's very easy compared to my two other vaporizers.
I was just wondering though how suitable is this vape for hash? I tend to prefer hash over bud. Is it possible to vape hash on its own (i.e. not sprinkled on bud) in this vape? I've heard that you have to be careful that nothing melts and drips down onto the heating element.
The Extreme Q is a Hash monster and beats the Volcano and Herbalaire in that department, if you ask me. Purchase a volcano liquid pad set and cut one up in approximately thirds. Form that third into a pad that fits into the Q's cyclone bowl you will have an amazing vaporizer for oils and waxes which is capable of much higher heat than the Volcano or HA. Coldwater or kif will work on a single, conventional screen or on a stack of screens if they are particularly gooey - or they can go on the liquid pad, too.
