Pnwt rocks with the dog! Sometimes I don't even grind, but 2 piece should work great! I'm excited for you Vicky!
The dog pack is strong!
I'm definitely going to try not grinding, just to see how it works. I'm glad you've done it with success!

Great Scott!
I think you'll be surprised just how little herb actually fits in the stems. The NONG I can't imagine not grinding. Its like 40th of a gram honestly. I love the efficiency of the underdog.

I got 2 Nylon direct draw, 1 glass direct draw, and 1-14mm gong. I think that's a good variety to try, you think?
I may very well have to end up grinding, I just would have liked to avoid it. I could have hubby do it for me.

Great choices! The glass direct and Gong can do no grind. The nylons will do better with ground herbs, I believe.I got 2 Nylon direct draw, 1 glass direct draw, and 1-14mm gong. I think that's a good variety to try, you think?

I can always get my husband to grind up some for the nylon direct draw, that way I'll have it. I'm glad the glass direct needs no grind. It kinda reminds me of my Solo glass direct draw stems.

I honestly like inner core stems and nylon stems with the basket pushed to the edge of the stem, then load in a tiny pellet. But even ground material just enough to fill that basket is nice.

Hi everyone, having a bit of a UD related problem. I am sure it is not unique to me.
The "problem" is that I like using it too much! How do you guys limit your consumption with this thing?
It's like if I turn it on it seems silly just to have one stem and leave it at that. It is obviously not as bad if I am using the nylon stems but I swear I could just sit there all night hitting stem after stem after stem with those. A full basket load in the glass stem is my favourite way to use it but if I have three basket-fulls that seems like a lot of weed for me to use compared to what I used to go through with my MFLB.
Solutions I have thought of:
1. Have more willpower.
2. Spin bud with herbal mix.
3. Buy a Vapman (rationalizing VAS
!) to keep my hands busy with smaller loads that take longer to consume.
Does anyone else have a Vapman? I feel like the key to my MFLB efficiency was that it took like a half hour to finish a trench while the UD I can use the same amount in one stem and kill it in one/two draws.
I think I might get a Vapman anyway - seems like it would partner well with an Underdog.

Don't get me wrong - I'm not trying to say the UD itself is inefficient - more that my usage patterns are . I greatly enjoy every draw from the UD but I literally have stop myself from just doubling up straight after I finish a stem.
Efficient vaping takes patience and restraint. Must make myself wait 15 minutes before reloading

I will! I'm going to plug it in as soon as it arrives. USPS is usually here by 3PM.
I'm going to have to buy an extension cord for my new UD so I can keep both the UD and AromaDog on my desk. Do I need any specific kind or voltage?
I hope everyone is having a good Mother's Day!
Do you mean an AC extension cord to go from the wall to the power supply or a DC one to go between the power supply and the vape?

An A/C extension cord to go from the wall to the power supply.

My UnderDog has arrived! I plugged it in at 2PM, and already had my first session. I decided to try the PNWT my first session, and it was great! I included a picture: (I did not grind)
I'm going to have to grind some up for the nylon stems. That is a small bowl, wow!
I also want to publicly thank the anonymous donor that gifted this UnderDog to me! I am very grateful, and I love it!
Thank you SO much!!

Wow, I think I came close to combustion! (some of the ABV was definitely black) I tried a session with the nylon stem, with grinded material. I had to pull the stem out quickly to prevent combustion. I'm definitely going to have to master my technique. I'll remember back to my MFLB days, and it will come back to me. I do like that the UD vapes on the high temp end, though.

Thank you for the tip! I actually added the extension cord when I plugged it in for the first time. I'm still running pretty hot. I have tried all stems, nylon direct draw, glass direct draw, and gong. I have decided that this in my preferred way to use my UD:
Did I mention how much I love the smell of new wood? Damn, I love it!!
I was just thinking how many people would buy more vaporizers if they just had a chance to try them. I can't believe how much I love this UD already. I honestly probably wouldn't have wanted one, but having the AromaDog really made me want one. I know which of my vaporizers will be getting my full attention for the foreseeable future.
