Oh my GOD, I can't believe I forgot about the opal on the turbine!
And that swagger logo
If I learn glassblowing... can I turn my piece into that??

Hi folks, hope all is well.
Just wanted to stop in and share an experience.
Last night I had buddies over for the fight, so my evo got some really solid use.
So I would load either a glob of EO, or a 2-cap full of bubble, unplug it, then send it around the circle. I always made my self the last one, as to test myself how much heat was left. Well after 4 guys ripping it, there was plenty of heat for me to get mine as well. Then it needed to be plugged in for 2 minutes or so, to heat back up for a second round.
I'm very impressed with the heat retention, and party mode is awesome!
I hope all you vaporists have a good new years!

We're here to fuck shit up.
Hmmmmm... So I tried another dab of wax and let the ELB sit in the unit a bit longer before I started pulling. Unfortunately, as soon as I started pulling the wax dropped right through the screen down into the water below. I was able to save it and then dab it off a nail.
I guess I'm going to have to wait for the concentrate accessory to get in on the fun.

Do you vape at 12 to 3 o'clock for flower? Or much lower than that?
It sounds to me that you have a "hot" evo, since yours can actually do concentrates.
If mine could do that I would probably be using it at max too, but remember all the glass breaking warnings...
Heating it to max and then unplugging it is pretty much the most stress you can put on the glass, I would just make sure you have a decent backup vape
Also, what party mode? Does yours do something like this:

I don't always dab but when I do I prefer to use dedicated tools like a pen, nail, or skillet.
I preserve my EVO for baking flowers.

I find I either forget to put the ELB in and then I take huge hits of nothing, or forget to take the ELB out and therefore cook the shit out of it.
Part of the pleasure in learning new tricks is that old dogs like me fuck up but have a good time along the way.

Your right, I suppose unplugging at max and then drawing cold air is about as rugged as it gets. But with out the air, it's the same as shutting off or timing out at max.
My unit came before the firmware upgrade, but I dont think I suffer from the runaway heat that others have.

Yeah and I bet it's all random depending on how they blew the bamboo glass, I'm sure there are units out there that would never crack even with higher heat!
What's your vaping range for flowers?

Try stuffing some ss concentrate pad in the top cap. This catches the oil and gives it a place to be vaped instead of sucking through the screen. I use volcano pad, but any concentrate ss pad should work. I hope that helps.Hmmmmm... So I tried another dab of wax and let the ELB sit in the unit a bit longer before I started pulling.

I think my EVO just doesn't get hot enough to vape concentrates the way I want. I want it all in one shot like a dab off a nail.

12 -3, and have accidentally had multiple 2-cap session over an elb that had abv.
By the time I realized it, I opened it up, and that stuff was as black as black can be, but no actual combustion happened. I was baffled as to why it didn't spark up.
@Deadshort480 I'm sorry if thats the case, but the pad is worth a shot. Only other thing is sometimes I have to prime it with a half of lung, cap the bottom of the bamboo, breathe out, then go to town. (if that makes sense).

found mine on Etsy.com@Fame Is A Vapor > Gotta get me one of them Barbacide rigs.
I've been doing both of these quite a lot lately, too! I chuckle every time. Even though I've got a "hot" EVO that I'll eventually send in for recalibration (or buy a backup), this thing still kicks my LSV's ass up and down the street. A little over 3 weeks now, and I'm still amazed at the way this thing delivers medication. Not only am I using far less MJ per session, but I'm also needing far fewer sessions. Currently down to 2-3 sessions per day, using no more than .2g per session. This is just blowing my mind! In my combustion days, I was smoking 3.5g a day, easy. Add a pack a day of cigs and I was absolutely killing my lungs and bank account
. That's when I took the year t-break and found the light (FC). With the LSV, I started at about .5-1g/day, but while waiting for the EVO I was well on my way up to 2g/day. But to now vape just .2-.6g, and get better benefits??? And it hasn't faded over 3+ weeks? 
Even with all of the delays, anxiety, and inconveniences, I'm really glad I made the $1000 investment in VXL.

I get no vapor - thin whispy vapor all the way to about 2:20. Somewhere between 2:20-3:30 I can spin up decent vapor, although technique is required. I've gotten combustion at least 2x from 3:15-3:50. (All approximations).
The combustion was a real bummer obviously, it was milking up nice and thick and then boom, a couple of small pieces combust. It's been so long since I've had that flavor, and it's so wrong after a nice tasty vape. Dumping the ELB shows the 3-4 flecks that reached combustion, and some still blonde even pale green.
No matter if I do 1/4 ELB or 3/4 ELB loose or tapped, ABV is uneven. As a result I get a lot of 'front loaded', hot hits. When I try for the full range by turning the dial up a bit, that's when i've run into the combustion problem.
I did try some bubble hash AK with flower buffer and that seemed to work well, but not the thick milk on demand.
So it sounds like I need to do a help ticket/return option to tweak it or whatevs. Not ready for a full evaluation until the temp range thing is worked out.
I have the EB Straight neck tube and it's a fantastic piece of glass. The opals are much cooler in person and convenient for holding the tube. Getting the sweet spot for the water level took some trial and error. The glass is very thick, the slits are all perfect and I dig the whirling action. There is no drag at all, since the Evo is almost pure convection, which can lead to empty primer hits to get the vapor spinning. The whistling sound was a surprise. I wanted to switch out to a bent neck, but now that I have the ice pinches, I plan on really giving it a shot and actually using ice.

The last time you tried, do you remember starting the draw off fairly slowly? If its slow the dab will just melt through. I always made that first second of the draw very hard and fast.
The fast draw with the hefty retained heat of the cloud *should* vape it all at once. However, I'd understand if the possibility of more lost oil doesn't fun.
Note: I only dab with the VapeXhale because I don't like my TI nail and don't want to buy another

I know exactly what your talking about! Interestingly the first time I tried the evo I dumped my bowl after the first hit and stirred, and that was by far the most even abv I've seen since.
I find the load inevitably gets pulled against the top cap and will clump after that first hit, leading to uneven abv (center darkest). I just load small amounts and use long steady draws and I get abv that's good enough for me, but if you get a paperclip and stir after the first hit you should see pretty much 100% even abv

I let it sit and I pull like I'd be pulling if I was hitting it off a nail and that's pretty hard. I figured it would need a fast shot of really hot air to get it going. I just can't get it done right.The last time you tried, do you remember starting the draw off fairly slowly? If its slow the dab will just melt through.

I'll try some cotton.
I've had great success adding wax to the ELB and vaping. I've never tried actually dabbing with the EVO - it would seem like more work than just heating a nail. Unless of your course you don't don't like Ti like SD.
I would love to hear more about this. And SD - is it that you don't like your Ti or any Ti?

Ohh no just my TI nail. It was a cheapo from eBay and I can't really trust the material safety of it.
I'd happily use a special concentrate ELB made out of Gr.2 titanium

Welcome to the family! I do remember both... and I'm sure I'll do them again, once EVO comes home.

Thats my man reporting in from the home rock baby!!! . . .
Edit: A little love for the Swagger team. The turbine is incredible and has become my daily driver. It is so smooth and mates with the EVO perfectly . . .
What is this piece???
It looks like it has a matrix perc on the outside!?
Great pic btw
Do you mean adding wax to flower or just straight wax?
