Woo hoo! I finally heard from The Maker (aka Lainaus - that’s how he signed his messages) about my accessories order and inquiring about the large clear oring atop the glass cylinder. Here’s what he said:
“Sure I can do that [adding these to my existing order]. it was difficult to source the right sized ring so we had to use the little bit oversized one and those didn't fit ideally and this had happened to you too [and VapeKnight too]. But the new ones seem to stay nicely in place!
Lainaus”
I asked to put a few of these on my order for both of us (good to have an extra too). My PayPal hasn’t been charged yet but he responded and he has the extra orings which was my biggest concern. It will be great to have an extra Cooling Unit and short stem when the others need cleaning, for backup in case the stem breaks, and a pre-packed stem for on-the-go use (though my TM is primarily relegated to the house, for now).
And I’ve been altering my TM routine as of late too. I usually get 2 sessions out of a .15-.2g load. Up until recently it’s been all on-demand but I’ve been enjoying session mode lately and using that more in my second session to finish off a load - and it think it extracts a bit better using session mode to finish. Just me and my unscientific preference but a nice balance - and flexibility - with such a great vape!
