The thing is I never tightened the atomizer by bracing against the handle and spinning the heater so I never abused it. When I got my unit the top and bottom of the atomizer were very loosely screwed together. When I hand tightened them the c-clip popped out a little I guess and when I tested the glass bushing on the seal it snagged the c-clip and completely removed it. I assumed it was literally junk metal as my sublimator atomizer and even the bushing seems to be solid and work fine. I've never had my c-clip on it fell off within 10 minutes of taking it out of the box. It appeared to have no functionality impact as my sublimator doesn't seem to come loose and the bushing hasn't moved. If it isn't under warranty I'm not going to replace it anyway.
*EDITED*man...i would love to try the new titanium sub.
That was exactly what I was thinking. Pretend its like batteries slowly dying by charging over and over again until it can't hold power.Hopefully if you (or myself) screwed anything up so badly that it needs repair/replacement Sublimator will cover it under warranty, as there were absolutely no maintenance instructions provided with the units.
@grokit did you get to try out the UFO yet? I'm finding that the airflow on the UFO is heaps better then the Adapt-A-BONG. Even started getting these light headaches after using the adapt-a-bong after drawing. Tried everything, slow draw... u name it. Just wondering what your findings where. Maybe i need to clean my atomizer or something but then again i would be having the same prob with the UFO. Starting to get afraid at first my core was compromised with some sort of residue giving me headaches and shit but.. argh guess this is just me :/
After speaking at length with robert at Planet Vape....apparently heat up time is faster...cool down time is faster,and titanium being a natural element offers a much cleaner taste. titanium is also much more durable and lighter weight.This would make my future setup a little less top heavy as well.He also said that they would have a ss/titanium trade in promo in the future.I don't see how tightening something that has become loose could be termed abuse anyways. My c-clip is now exposed and the atomizer is now oozing from both ends of the ptfe. I suppose I need to tighten it but I'm afraid it will never come apart if I do, so I guess I will try and disassemble it before I turn it off later.

I wonder if they do trade in for sublimators not purchased from PV.

Place the Apollo heat injector on to the top of the cone and place both parts as an assembled unit in to your water tool that has a minimum 4” base, large enough to support the Apollo and Atomizer safely. Do Not use on a small bubbler that is unstable!
On a brand new Sublimator, turn your Sublimator on by rotating the temp selector wheel on the power cord to the full power position and pressing the 30 minute button. Let it run at full temp for 30-60 minutes to burn off any manufacturing oils
If a screen is not already installed at the bottom of the cone, insert a screen (included) from the top of the cone and push it down all the way until properly seated (past the first visible ledge).
Once thermal equilibrium has been reached, using the upper handle lift off the heat injector and place 0.1 gram – 0.15 gram of dried herbs in to the top of the cone and give it a quick stir with a heat proof stir tool to ensure your herbs are not clumped together.
If you let it heat up in the bong or glass bushing you won't be able to get it out until it cools off.
Yes, I also got the lowpro reducer, so getting stuck shouldnt be an issue, was just worried about cracking.damn, ya sorry. I'm using the 14 to 18 reducer.
I wouldn't stir if you are balancing the screen on the top ledge area as you could flip the load down into the atomizer. Personally I agree with PV's suggestion to let it rest on the second ledge. It fits perfectly there and seems like it is by design. If your screen is securely set in place, I recommend a stir (once during each bowl).
Was there any hint at how far in the future?
I definitely agree that its the best "device" on the market at the moment. Ive let soo many people try it and not one of them had something bad to say about it. Only complaint ive heard is that it gets you soo stoned, this device is honestly soo veratile and efficient I would definitely recommend it to anyone and I do on a daily basis. Props EnricoSublimator is def best vaporizer on market, its killing my cloud an ssv. just a tiny pinch will give one massive hit, few tiny hits im rocked an im a big guy. love this thing
