Leave everything in the stem and dump it in some ISO. Dismantling everything is insane. O-rings cost pennies and I haven't had one degrade yet in 3 years. ISO is liquid, I'm pretty darn sure liquid can find it's way in and around everything in the stem. The only thing I'll say is this, yes, maybe there's the tiniest of tiny gunk still left somewhere, and I suppose if your really really really sensitive to those things than go ahead and knock yourself out and take everything apart. I came home for lunch today and tossed three stems in a baggie with some ISO, just got home from work and they look spotless and ready to roll to me.I forgot to ask in my last post. For others who have filled up their cooling unit with ball bearings, how have you cleaned it after use?
I had experimented with some stainless steel mesh. It got pretty gunked up so I got rid of it.
Specifically, are you just removing the O rings and soaking in iso? Or, do you have to open it all up, dump the bearings and soak all of it?
For some reason, I suspect to get it clean I might have to dump the bearings....but I hope not which is why I ask :-) ....extra work!
I also had the idea, don't know if anyone did it, of using two cooling units in the 80 mm tube. I have one coming....might be a little tight to do this....and perhaps unnecessary....but l have the bad habit of liking to tinker.
Last night I returned to using the Tinymight with my OGB hook. For the last while I've mostly been using some custom stems. And I have been using a log a lot more lately.
Anyway, in the a state of expanded consciousness, I had the thought, "why does anyone have any other vapes besides the tinymight?"
Thankfully the moment passed but I appreciated the chance to experience that insight.
It's easier to dose 50mg in a vapcap (half bowl setting). It's nicer to sesh with a solo 2 (imo).
Lol.... Absolutely. I am all in for keeping it simple.Leave everything in the stem and dump it in some ISO. Dismantling everything is insane.

Do you happen to know the type and size of the O rings the CU uses? I would imagine they are just silicone which are perfect for withstanding both the heat and probably the iso.
I for one am not a perfectionist. There really is no point :-). It was designed to be used and its simple design keeps it pretty clean overall anyway.
Now, for those who might be perfectionists with respect to keeping their lungs clean, I wonder how these might work....or might they be too efficient and filter out everything! :-)

Coolness!tiny titanium wpa???? yes apparently
Looks like some part of the NewVape hardware.Coolness!
From where?
I understand where pmt is coming from. His point was that the question "why doesn't everyone have a TM" has valid answers.I guess his point is that the TM is extremely versatile. The Dynavaps and the Solo are reputable devices, but the TM has a much wider range of possible use case scenarios. You can use it „natively“ or pair it with a j-hook or a bong, tinker with filling the cooling unit with balls, set it to any amount from .05g to .3g, use it on-demand or as a session device... I understand where he's coming from.

"It's Aloha Friiiiiday, no work till Monday............a doo be doo, doo doo be, doo be doo be doo be doo!!!!!!!!!!" Peace EZ!
Yeah, the product page says the plug is to put in mouthpiece when you want to invert "for loading, etc."I am guessing the included white plug has to be used. Add a tiny amount of H2O, put the plug in, turn upside down, add herb, put in TM, remove plug....
And, I suspect you have to put the plug back before removing it or else water will go where you don't want it.
Seems like it might be a pain on a regular basis so not sure I will keep it.
Coolness!
From where?
yes that is right it is a 18mm shovelhead post. the od is the same as a stem but it id is to big for a cooling unit. it works but not that well, the load is far from the heater and the stem doesn't reach all the way to the bottom, a lot of heat is lost to the oven walls before it gets to the herb. so it works but you have to go higher than you reg settings.Looks like some part of the NewVape hardware.
Just as I thought lolYeah, the product page says the plug is to put in mouthpiece when you want to invert "for loading, etc."
I don't own this piece (or a TM!) but usually these bubblers can be filled (the water part) by inserting the chamber end into a glass of water, then drawing on mouthpiece, using mouth's suction to draw water up into the bubbler ONLY as far as you want it to be, which is just above the holes, so yeah its not much water.
At the point when water is where you want it, immediately withdraw the bubbler from water (while maintaining suction).
When the chamber part is dry, sometimes (on some bubblers) you can fill by hoovering.
Another good use for small bubblers (if they're not too draw-restrictive) is dry. Almost the same cooling, better flavor, far less hassle or risk.
but what are you waiting for?... you have to pull over the mighty and try this machine...I don't own this piece (or a TM!)
I second the Octotaster. No screen though.Hey all. New Tinymight owner here and am loving it! I have tried multiple stem variations so far but my faves are the 3d long stem with a basket screen only. The flavor at 6.5 is right where I like it. Second best setup so far is an octotaster with basket screen. The octo screen does the cooling and the flavor is clean.
I tried without the screen first and it was good but too restricted and I didn’t get a full burn and seemed to waste some medicine. With the screen, it is a little small dose but I seem to be able to milk all of the goodness!I second the Octotaster. No screen though.
On second thought, having no basket screen was not restrictive, I was just getting Scooby snacks and not fully extracting all the bowl.I tried without the screen first and it was good but too restricted and I didn’t get a full burn and seemed to waste some medicine.

It was mostly a joke, though an actual thought that I had. To be clear, I understand why different vapes exist. I literally own dozens of cannabis vapes.I understand where pmt is coming from. His point was that the question "why doesn't everyone have a TM" has valid answers.
In time.but what are you waiting for?... you have to pull over the mighty and try this machine...
Understood on the snacks. I try to use a course grind so keeps snacks to a minimum. As for extraction, while sides are a lighter color than then middle, it’s certainly not green. I think I’m getting all of it. Maybe a stir would give me one more puff, but I’m satisfied with it. I’m trying to avoid the metal if I can if for no other reason than tasteI tried without the screen first and it was good but too restricted and I didn’t get a full burn and seemed to waste some medicine.

You probably won’t need the TM then, unless you just want more of a portable design.In time.
I know resistance is futile.
At the moment I'm still on honeymoon with a Taffee Bowle.
