@Modicum, see the above post about Teflon tape. Got some at Home Depot. Works for me. You probably have to re-wrap it after cleaning.
If you look up a couple posts to the sidecar style mouthpiece I am using, it is actually being held snug by teflon tape. Never gets near hot enough to be a problem for teflon and outside the vapor path.
Edit: I have been getting INCREDIBLE results with my current setup. I have compared with equally sized packs in my hydrobrick and Milaana and am getting much better flavor, longevity of flavor, and number of hits from the Milaana. I love it! The setup is the following:
- The mouthpiece pictured a few posts up on this page. Sidecar style with 18mm male on both ends.
- regular screen placed on the "rim" inside the 18mm joint like in a 7th floor vaporizer
- Arizer dome screen to cap the end of the joint
- Samsung 30q batteries
- Medium fine grind
- Pack 1/4-1/2 way up 18mm joint
This allows the bud to circulate and stir itself within the capped pack, and allows easy shaking which negates the need to open the pack up and stir. I have been getting extremely even extraction and a ton of hits per load. I appreciate that this vape can microdose really well but I appreciate even more the way it handles the medium sized loads I am used to from the hydrobrick.
The mouthpiece is absolutely perfect and gives good feedback without being hot at all, and it can be rotated to a couple really comfortable drawing positions.
The 30q batteries run cooler than some others, but have amazing life and honestly they make the learning curve easier because you can just preheat 5 seconds and draw at medium speed while riding the heat and not combust.
WOW. This thing has exceeded my expectations big time, and I hope everybody has tried out a setup like this or can at least find this style of mouthpiece at a local head shop.
