Easy to miss here! Yeah I actually edited a little further above not sure if you saw since your quote doesn't have my latest final post lol
Yeah it was what I expected as well, but with everyone talking about the pill stems, I had to try for myself to confirm and compare directly... You can tell there is more air flow, strong flavor, but hot air, more similar to the Phineas stems in that regard, although those seem to cool more than the HA, even if not as much as the GVB options...
Yeah something about the pearls, whichever style size configuration, allows the vapor path to be pretty comprehensively and consistently obstructed with plenty of cooling surface. Often I don't feel the vapor until it is too late and I've already taken too big of a hit lol a good problem to have?
Yeah I am actually using my HA stem, with a flat half-inch screen, that GVB uses with his clear stems, fits more perfectly in his stem, with his spikes, but it also did fit in the HA stem, so the ID must be similar? Glass always has variation though and it does seem like the HA Glass is not quite as, robust?
Yeah they were sold out quick, the TM stems in particular, but he seems to be making more, he already added more to the site, of other stems, so best to keep an eye on it!
People are people, we make virtual friends, and we gravitate towards certain post styles that probably appeal to us, being a melting pot, you get all sorts of styles, some people don't mesh with other people, but then they may connect with others... It's helpful to share different perspectives, your post above is a good one, but I know I might have been hard on you for previous posts you made? Sorry, they have value, do not want to scare you away, but you are of course free to react however you wish, cannot control the feelings, though it can be helpful in a public community to not take things too personally (much easier said than
Also, about asking the same questions over and over, we've all been guilty of it, I think there is a bit more forgiveness when it is a well-known member popping in to ask a question in a thread they do not frequent, even if it is a question that has answers already even recently, as opposed to a brand new member who pops in to ask the question, which is funny because you'd think the well-known member should know better to skim back reading through a thread instead of just posting a question, but I guess a lot of us expect a new member to be reading and researching, even obsessively the way we were when we were getting into it, before just asking the questions that have many answers already...? Just like life, you see it all, examples of everything everywhere here, if you pay attention
