How long is a NAIL?
3 inches.

He would prob need to know exactly where the lip/edge at the top is also , like how far down from the top and also a measurement of that lip so it stays put in the bamboo.
Thank you!The lip is about 9mm from the top and measures about 1mm thick.
Uhhh... how on earth do you manage to do that?How long is a NAIL?

The EVO UNIT I LOVE!
So I need some NAILS that don't break?
Baskets that don't fall apart?
My new pack 3 day's use?
Like I said I love the EVO.Uhhh... how on earth do you manage to do that?
I'm imagining you as Andre The Giant trying to pack an ELB but just having such excessive size and strength you destroy each one. Eventually you just smash them out of frustration and let out giant roar.
I used to tear or crush them alot but that was when I used to squeeze and wiggle them as I held it upside down to unload. I since have switched to using a flat headscrewdriver to both pry the lid off and unload the elb. Since switching techniques I haven't had any problems.How long is a NAIL?

I expressed my concern and although Vapexhale is going to resell this bad turbine they promised it wouldn't be in a standard priced package this time and it will be sold as a scratch and dent. So that's a good thing.
I haven't seen the standard HT scratch and dent sales before but they must have had a lot of them by now with all of the returned glass.
How much do they usually sell them for? Heck if it's $50 or something that might be a hell of a deal for someone! I may even be in the market for a Scratch and dent HT for a discount when that sale happens again if the price is right?
I did only one dab out of each of the nails pictured below.
I gave them a hot ISO bath to get the black gunk out, but they still look the same.
I'm using high quality, clean concentrates.
What am I doing wrong or is this normal?
Congratulations to everyone here, because your evo club now has me in it!
My setup is evo -> whip -> water bong.
My review? 5/5
I'm taking bong rips like the good old days.
4-5 big hits at any pace I want and then I swap out the ELB for another round.
There are slight variations in both the bamboos and the elbs. I would ask to see if maybe they have a slightly larger one. I had the same problem and they were able to sort it out. My friend also had a problem with his bamboo being smaller than most, purchased during the "give thanks bundle" and they sorted that out as well but he had already sent it in to try to get the bamboo switched out for a slightly larger one, and the new correctly fitting elbs were the solution.Well I got my replacement elbs the other day from vapexhale that I was told would be checked before shipping and I guess they were not. Same problem , they are way to loose and fall out when inverted or rise up when not and inhaling. I don't like them like this. Good thing I still have two decent originals I just cleaned that fit perfect. I emailed them again , hoping they can help but to be quite honest , I really don't want loose fitting elbs so I have to worry about them falling out on me.
I think juist checking wouldn't help with a problem like this. They could have checked it in a slightly tigher bamboo.Well I got my replacement elbs the other day from vapexhale that I was told would be checked before shipping and I guess they were not.
Have you tried reshaping them so they fit better?Same problem , they are way to loose and fall out when inverted or rise up when not and inhaling.
What? I don't even...Baskets that don't fall apart?

In theory, this is what the temps should be at the different dial positions: http://chrisovercash.com/vapexhale-cloud-evo-temperature-settingsIs an infrared thermometer an accurate way to keep track of the bamboo? I'm getting 255 Fahrenheit at 4 o'clock.
@stickstones
How does the reclaim hemp fiber work? I tried reclaim by scraping the golden residue from the top of the female joint on my HT's. When I finally had enough to scrape into a nail I did such... and found the taste AWFUL (think I'm still coughing from that months later too!)
What was the highest temperature you achieved and at what position?In theory, this is what the temps should be at the different dial positions: http://chrisovercash.com/vapexhale-cloud-evo-temperature-settings
I did attempt to use an infrared thermometer to determine if they were accurate but I was unable to successfully get a consistent measurement within the bamboo.
I am so careful!Ugh, I'm so frustrated. My Evo is doing that thing again where it won't shut off, it only does if I unplug it. No amount of toggling the switch on/off with the dial in the reset position seems to be resolving the issue either. I guess I'll just leave it unplugged for a while and see if that helps the problem.
Obviously not the biggest issue compared to mangled ELBs and questionable glass craftsmanship, however. @ataxian I actually managed to accidentally squish an ELB beneath my foot the other day (it rolled off my table without my noticing) and even then its still usable and doesn't look half as bad as yours! You must really be putting them through some rugged use .
With the dial cranked to 5, the thermometer would sometimes show readings in the 700 degree range... which is what made me think it wasn't a super accurate read.What was the highest temperature you achieved and at what position?
Wow 700! I did the readings after 20 minutes went by and at 4 o'clock the highest temp I could achieve was 260 with my infrared. I was definitely getting hits and great flavor but im not sure if my gun is giving faulty readings or the unit. I'll give it a thorough testing today as the weekend is almost here!!With the dial cranked to 5, the thermometer would sometimes show readings in the 700 degree range... which is what made me think it wasn't a super accurate read.
