I'm having a lot of difficulty finding a US sized connector and I'd really like to put the thing through water.
Has anyone tried putting a silicone o-ring around an 18 mm male ISO joint to make a tight seal? Are there any issues with doing that which might affect the device?
Crazy, I have found countless ways to hit my Milaana through water recently lol. In fact I was over at my friends house last night with nothing but a shorty stem and a little masking tape was enough to widen enough to seal to an 18mm piece.
The actual size you need is listed most places as 19/22 if that helps. Also I could just buy a bunch of them from a glass place here in the US if they are hard to come by for some of you. Just send me a PM and I will get an order together so we can combine the shipping and save $$. I think they have glass that will work for stems too available, I just need to see how long they come.
So my girlfriend picked this thing up and had it mastered in about 2 hits. My best friend who I bought a Haze 3.0 for at Christmas caught on immediately too and asked if he could trade his HAze for my Milaana. I told him, no thanks I already have 2x Hazes BUT I will be glad to get him one of his own.
He is a minimalist yogi so the simplistic steam punk design and wooden body were very attractive to him. But the real draw is that most of the time he just wants to take a quick hit or 2 and doesn't want a whole session. The Milaana not only beats the Haze but pretty much any other portable I have in this department. You can actually take 2 hits and catch a buzz in 30 seconds without wasting the rest of your bowl! All in a package that can white wall any water piece without cords, sweet!
Just out of curiosity who would suggest the best "sipping" vap out there for people that can`t for whatever reason take long slow drawers? I am similar to your mate because of a medical problem but have found a large resistance to vapeing due mainly to the sipping versus long drawers. My solo I can sip on where many convection vaps in particular, you have to 'prime" them for a while.
You actually just nailed it, try a conduction vape. My mom cant take more than a 3 second hit due to lung problems. I give her my Mighty and she gets the tiniest hit when I blow huge clouds. She can use the Milaana but she has to prime for 8 seconds or so at least and gets a slight char to achieve a hit. I suggest breathing exercises to get your inhale time up to around 8 seconds at least for proper convection vaping. Although that's easier said than done with emphysema or other lung problems!
In light of this she actually prefers and gets bigger hits off on conduction based portables like the Haze or CFX. If you are only taking a 3-4 second draw conduction vapes win over convection IMO.
agreed, I am likewise glad you are participating here and working on a similarly unregulated battery powered convection design for your next creation!
