Nicholas, the French supplier of tinymight glass stems and j hooks has sent me his latest creation, the 'spikes and twists giant tinymight stem'.
The twists are a new addition to his spiked stems. It consists of 3 reducers which funnel the air through a smaller port, presumably creating more distortion and cooling.
My pictures are rubbish and don't do justice to the workmanship put into these.
A twist between 2 rows of spikes.
The first twist is visible just above the TM body. Next in middle and last at top.
These are priced at 26.90 Euro.
Nicholas now supplies a solid silver basket screen with each stem and sells them for 2 for 2.99 or 10 for 9.99.
Anyone who has already bought a stem and would like a basket screen, please contact Nicholas directly.
My thoughts.
I think it looks great.
It performs great also.
Is it substantially better than his others?
Probably not. I can't notice much more cooling but then his stems are very effective at cooling already. There may be a subtle difference but it's not dramatic.
If I already had one of his spiked stems I wouldn't rush to buy this one although it is very pretty (I've bought all the coloured dynavap m 2019s cause they look good so who am I to say!).
If you are planning on buying your first, I would recommend this one as it only costs a few euros more.
They are all good but this one is slightly better.
An added bonus is when you blow out the abv, this stem whistles, so it could be used in emergency situations to alert rescuers to your location!
Usual link. Nicholas still hasn't updated his site despite gentle prodding but he will reply and is a genuine nice guy who speaks perfect English..
