I'm going to have rig up an inline fan or something for my room. Two or three sub rips and it is very foggy. Need fresh air in here. It is real vapey real quick.

my favourite thing about the sub, is getting subbed as fuck and hopping on this forum and trying to open my eyes to post to tell you guys how awesome it is "IN MY OPINION" :D had to jab guys . The amount of people actually smoking on the sub is mindblowing, so to have this forum to discuss with you guys and get excited about the product together is just wonderful. Just thought I'd point out the sunshine happiness and rainbows on this forum as I have only been here for a few months but I love the community on here. Time to get more subbed. Also on another note, if anyone ever wonders, unless you are a huge concentrate user and have constant cheap access to concentrates, I would not recommend the E-nail at all. Its a great piece but im finding my Apollo is still finding much heavier usage and the E-nail and being put up in the closet only to come out when I get a fresh jug of some honey. In my opinion, I would rather do a double decker out of the Apollo 70-80% of the time compared to a giant glob on my E-nail. Random post for me, its been a while. keep on subbin talk to yall soon.

nice to hear from you Brayden, and yeah the sub is a thing of beauty eh? :D

thx for the tip on the e-nail. I felt the same way and couldn't justify picking it up also.

these days my absolute fave concentrate is sub oil. I wont be doing any butane runs anytime soon. :D How can I beat such a wonderful product that takes 0 pollutants to make it?


Could anyone explain how to correctly salvage oil when you iso wash everything and how to correctly extract the left over actives from the abv? I've never done any of that stuff before and haven't had much success figuring it out on my own.

it's not really relevant to this topic so ill pm you instead ok?

Playing lawyer with the rules to attack another member is inexcusable. Warning point issued.
@Liberty, don't take this the wrong way, but.. Whether or not anyone thought that what you posted was fact, is irrelevant IMO.. That rule is not for no reason.. Why leave things up to Assumption when you can be more clear about it.. Especially when/if you think some one might have an issue w/ it.. It will help you be more clearly understood, the way you fActually mean to be.. I'm assuming that you would like that.:peace:

Don't worry, I didn't take it the wrong way. In fact, I believe that I understood your post to be exactly what you intended, to wit: a needless meddling in the already amicably resolved dispute between two other forum members.

And, because I know you're a stickler for rules (i.e., "That rule is not for no reason [sic]"), here's another one that you may have violated (with your pedantic jackassery): Under the heading General Posting Guidelines, "Put some effort into your posting. Before creating a thread or posting a reply, please ask yourself: “Am I making a thread which is either funny, informative, or interesting? Does my reply offer any significant advice or help contribute to the conversation in any fashion? Is it on topic?”. Avoid making a new thread that consists of a link or copy/paste without adding a decent personal summary."

You see, we can all be obnoxious and this thread can go totally off-topic. Your post did not fall within any of the aforementioned acceptable reasons to add a post. It simply restated @VapeNStone's contention that my post was unclear as to whether it was an opinion or a statement of fact. And, @VapeNStone and I had already resolved the dispute (@VapeNStone was gracious enough to explain his point and we amicably agreed to disagree) 20 minutes earlier.

Also, your statement that "That rule is not for no reason [sic]" appears to be a violation of the Rules on two other counts. First, it doesn't specify if that is your opinion or a statement of fact for which you did not provide any proof. Second, it appears to violate the rule under General Posting Guidelines, "[p]roofread your posts for clarity and quality. Semantics, spelling, punctuation and grammar are important when conveying thoughts and information in a text-based medium." Your marginally literate missive had many defects for which the rules clearly require us check.

Or, we could all be gracious toward one another, make good faith attempts to understand the posts of others, and do our best to keep this thread on the topic for which it was created, i.e., the Sub.

mod note: Leave moderating and rules interpretation to moderators. If someone is breaking a rule, do not post, make a report.

I am who I am and your approval isn't needed!
My only complaint so far with the Sub is that being a 'light' (but frequent) user, both herb & dabs, is the lack of yet producing ANY of this highly regarded reclaim :(
Hell, I 'force' drop in friends to use it when they visit and still only see minor building up on the cone walls of this red oil.

Don't get me wrong..... I continue to love the use & effect the Sub gives me without a doubt ! Maybe I just need more friends, because an 'O' can last me for quite a long time now that I vape, that, and with my near 40 yrs of daily use forever low tolerance :shrug:

Update : 3months on and my Apollo is now only pulling 39watts at max. It is the LE kit version with the timer box.
Use it daily and started letting it 'cool off' after every 30mins of being on.
Interestingly, I noticed the max wattage dropping a lot more drastically since I started letting it cool-off.

My friend and I both did. The sub floored both of us.

its such a beast eh!

i kept telling my most vapor knowledgeable friend about my new toy, id say 'this is the vape we have been looking for!'. his response was always luke warm enthusiasm, hes heard me spout off about many different vapes, but none have truly provided what we were looking for. so i am sure he took my praise of the sub with a grain of salt.

well after he tried it for the first time he just turned to me and clapped his hands once, and a long pregnant pause with him standing there with a stupid smile on his face, then he clapped again followed by a shorter pause, and e both started howling!

so to the sublimator crew!

Sorry to hear, please be sure to let us know how your situation is remedied. Has your timer box started to make a buzzing sound? Mine started buzzing and dropped off a bit recently, now it seems seems to have settled down. I tapped it a few times with my fingers and it stopped buzzing. For now.

Guess what Sub Culture? My max is pulling 53-54 (mostly 53) watts and I have had this unit for quite some time now. Arrived on 09/06/13. I use 32-33w for flowers and 37-40w for full extraction because some of my buds are really sticky still. Medium brownish coffee like look is what I aim for. Any darker and the screens will get clogged faster. If you got the funds and supply, do it Enrico's way and dump it out after a pull or two.

Also, found out a way to effectively clean the screen out. I was having a hard time and ended up thinking force is what we need so I grabbed a cylindrical capsule (you know, the squeeze caps) and put the screen in another container. This time I found a small wax capsule works well for holding the 91% ISO and it is screw-threaded so it is tight with really little leakage. Might wanna not inhale the fumes you get from the ISO. Nothing a mask won't fix. Anyways, shake vigorously (small capsule inside bigger capsule) until you feel it is time to check to see if you did the trick. I think of it as a shake weight cleaner haha. If it looks like it needs another run, dump and refill w/ more ISO and try again. After that just rinse everything and there you have it. Clean screens for the neat freaks like me.

Initially, I didn't get any sublimate build up until at least 20g were vaped. Throw in some bubble, sift, or scissor for heavy oil production. I am getting probably at least 12 dabs worth a day of sublimate without using BHO in the Apollo.

I use jambandphans technique to clean my screens. Needle nose pliers,a small blue flame torch, Iso, tooth brush, hot water. I have been using same stock screen for 3 months. They are well built. The ultrafine screens for lower atomizer aren't as durable, so stock up on them when one orders.

Maxing out between 35 to 40 watts. Really want to hold out for that Ti Apollo for my RMA.

Wonder if she will keep dropping or stay put?

I think the sublimate occurs faster with the UFO because mine spills out. Even if I clean the whole unit. And I think it's because you have to torch the whole unit all the time that the oil drips down faster and is maybe heated more? I find I get easily 1 gram every 14g. I have a massive glob inmy freezer that I add too and take from. I try to save but it's hard. My favorite thing is massive dabs without herb in my UFO. Massive taste!

TLDR: use iso to clean the screen.

sorry m8, but i found that 2nd paragraph difficult to read. but thats the jist of it right?

*edit: ok i re read. im too subbed!! ;)

so you have it double enclosed . i assume this add more vibrational energy to your cleaning process?

interesting tip. could do the same with it and stones, marbles, salt or broken glass. in a container with your iso too. this would give a similar addition of energy i would imagine.

personally jsut in iso and then ran under hot water works for me. but more methods are welcome!

Um, your personal low usage pattern is a flaw of the Sublimator? How is that so? Unless you were joking?

yea, i'd say it's ur usage @smokum.
it makes sense that the more you use, the more buildup.
the buildup isn't massive by any means. i have to hit around half a gram within a day for the oil to buildup enough to clump and melt down to the bottom. i am thinking that those with low intake aren't getting enough buildup when runny and are just VERY lightly and repeatedly coating their atomizer stem. it's a theory anyway

Last night my screen was getting clogged. I ripped the sub about 12 times In a row, at around 40 watts, with an empty bowl. My screens freed up and a bunch of oil dripped own the atomizer. The atomizer really heated up and got things flowing nicely.

Give it a try.

@weedemon personally, hot water and iso almost does the trick but if you are a daily user and through eighths in 3-6 days water doesn't get rid of the gunk that's stuck fast enough even with ISO. My screen gets dirty often but I find my method to be faster and more accomodating than using a toothpick/sewing pin to get rid of hash particles stuck in the screen holes.

So for those of you that wants your Sublimator screens clean and QUICK (because cleaning everything else is and always was a hassle) I will revise the steps.

You will need:

1 Pop Squeeze Capsule (8th sized)
1 Wax screw-threaded capsule (airtight so ISO won't make a mess)
91% ISO (cleans better than weaker 71% IMO)

Fill the wax capsule with enough ISO and put subscreen inside. Screw air-tight and insert into your pop squeeze capsule and shake vigorously until satisfied (I usually shake 3-4 times very fast). This way it loosens up all the sticky residue on your screen and all you have to do is rinse and take out the few remaining specks with a sewing pin (I find toothpicks to be too thick for the holes.) Hope this helps anybody who is in need of serious cleaning.

Is it me or does Enrico's videos cause more confusion than enlightenment?

If he was going to showcase a new launch tube it would have been nice if he explained what was new about it and showed its functionality compared to its predecessor so we can decide whether or not the upgrade is beneficial to each individual.

Watching two guys get high on the Sub doesnt do much for anyone except the two guys getting high. I dont think any of us doubt that this thing has a serious kick to it any more and I dont think the videos had anything to do with that, it was word of mouth from FC users. I cant speak for everyone but functionality is more important factor for me at this point. A video of disassembling the atomizer would be nice, things of this nature would be much appreciated.

Hopefully this didnt come off as naggy and leaned more towards constructive criticism as it was intended.

This is great for us to hear, we need feedback on what you guys want and need to see. Again, apologize for my absense, denver was not so great for me and I've been in the hospital since Friday, but hopefully getting released tomorrow.

Reading through the thread, the key informative videos we should produce are:
Product comparison videos
Apollo Cleaning instructions

Anything else, please let me know and I will bug Enrico to make them!

I'd love to see a UFO instructional video and an oil reclamation how to video.
