My e-mail only asked about the shirt size
I think the colour is going to be the same for all Fanatics (green?) ... and I'll choose the bent neck as well but the e-mail didn't ask about that.Edit: For shirt size what are you guys picking? I'm a medium or large depending on how big the shirts are made (I'm not a real big guy
) ... it would suck to have it to small to wear or too large so that I'm swimming in it though!

is the white one have black accents on it? already went with it, figure ill make it a blank canvas. my friend said he can make heat sleeve graphic covers no problem, just need the final specs. trying to get those now. i know im gnna have a nice custom paint job with the Tool third eye or some chet zar art. i went with straight and ice since i already have a bent neck evolver and it can still irritate me sometimes. figure the best of both worlds, can akways switch up hits, evolver bent, to turbine, to apix king to king to finish it off.lol. peace

You can put small pieces of ice down the mouthpiece but it doesn't work well.The Mobius bubblers are dewars with an air column down to the perc. Doesn't fly with any ice.
Ice is not overrated for those who need it.In my case, I am very sensitive from my throat down, and in my bronchial tubes. I seem to recall there are a few of us medical users here, some on the
side of life. Makes a surprising difference. And, there are those who like ice when the herb leaves a lot to be desired, i.e., it's hot.
Judging by the pick on indiegogo, the power switch is black but I wouldn't call it accents.hookedonvape said:

everyone going bent neck, is the straight really ergonomically different or just comfort. ive never used a straight yube with my vxc, is it easier or just more comfortable withe the bent. i just figurrd to have an option to use ice but at the cost of comfortability. i usually sit on my floor for a pow wow anyway.lol

Rarely use ice, but when I do it is either in my original gridded tree HT or in say a moby nano, or other tubes with ice pinches. The original gridded tree has a "splash guard" and since I rarely use ice in it it does not concern me. (no noob in the world would get within 10 yds of it!) Here is a pic, so you all can drool
Carry on...

Bent is nice but it encourages bad posture for me lol (makes me slouch)
Plus ice is the shit for those days you just want something special

was the gridded tree a special? why no noobs?lol. ive found recently my nano has taken a back seat to my evolver bub, green means go lets do this. three elbs, three strains, one couchlocked fool.lol peace. think ill stick with white and straight complete opposite of my cloud order. i think its great all the people with vas on here, its like one big support group. lol
i got ya og tube no umbrella protection. the og clouds are sexy, realigned my case buy nowhere near the perfecyion of yours. oh well function over form.lol. thats where i think the new evo is gonna kick ass

Actually I asked about the Fanatic HT when they emailed me about my early bird (I got both).
They said there is NO customization for Fanatic.
You get what they give you (and green is the limited edition Fanatic color)

I really, really hope that means they're doing something awesome like a removable mouthpiece setup where Fanatics get BOTH straight w/ pinches and skinny bent mouthpieces included.
I'd much rather see that and a single-chamber circ to turbine than a fixie mouthpiece and two discrete chambers that are a bitch to drain and clean. I think it better the extra cost goes into additional purty working or features rather than extra volume and plumbing. The fact is, a circ to single/dual turbine is probably already more than enough "diffusion" for most people, especially for vapour. Unless you're gonna get all fancy and make the water recycle down to a sump reservoir after being lifted through the turbine/s so that all the reciprocal volume doesn't eventually settle above the top turbine stage during longer draws, I think the Fanatic tube setup should just be a more decorated, more versatile version of the Early Bird tubes.

Personally, I prefer my tubes as one piece
To each his own I guess!

I disagree out of personal preference. I like all the chambers.. paying for a fanatic and not getting them, after this was already talked about & planned, would suck. I like lots of ice and lots of water filtration, because I feel my lungs feel better that way.
Cleaning isn't that much of a bitch. And if you want only 1 water chamber then can't you just fill 1 of them?

Well, the way I look at it, for something small(ish) like a Hydratube, adding a keck clip makes it almost as good as "one piece", but retains more versatility in terms of potential use modes, repairability and storage.

I agree there. Having an upper GonG with a mouthpiece would be very nice for the reasons you listed. Have another tube? Stack it. etc. I'm all for the versatility the upper GonG offers and have been vocal about it. That's a very good idea to make the fanatic level stand out that much more than the early bird.
However I don't think any chambers need to be sacrificed, as an upper GonG isn't substantially costly or hard to do anyway. I like having the option of filling all the chambers or just 1 to change up the drag/diffusion and would hate to see them take out a chamber.
You can give fanatics BOTH the bent neck and straight tube w/ ice pinches by having an upper GonG. Attach the straight tube at the top, or take it off and put on the bent neck attachment. Now that would be awesome. Because then you could also set both aside and stack another hydratube of yours or glycerin chamber on top of it.

We've never had a clear explanation of what the perk setup for the fanatic is, though, so it'd be hard to say you're missing out on something youwere never clearly promised. We've seen an incompete design and told it won't be that, but may be like that, somehow, and with "another chamber". It's a pretty vague description, though, and "another chamber" could be interpreted a buch of ways. If it was just a fixed dual-chamber like the Swagger double, it'd seem a bit old and stale (especially v.s. the funky Early Bird tubes). It could just mean it has a dual turbine and they're counting the division between them as creating a new chamber? It could be two discrete perk-to-turbine chambers? It could even be a chamber added to incorporate recycler functionality or some other as-yet unmentioned awesomeness. But until we know all we can do is speculate in wild circles. :/
Oh well, that's kinda fun too, I guess.
In the approach I proposed, you'd still have the option of using the straight mouthpiece with ice pinches. Go nuts with all the ice you want. Hell, if you're feeling good and fancy, put some dry ice in there, and now you don't have to worry about it evapourating and raising the water level (though it may carbonate your water slightly
).A lot of two-chamber designs are indeed a pain, as they can be very difficult to fully drain unless carefully designed to allow it. Unless you want to waste a lot of ISO, it's hard to get all of the inside shiny and clear without haze, streaks or droplet marks. Some blowers add drain plugs in such situations, but most leave them out for aesthetic reasons.
You can just fill one, but the empty chamber still adds drag to the draw. Much better to have a single chamber if you want a single. The main point of course is whether it's providing a sufficient conditioning level to satisfy you, but I really think a turbine setup would be more than sufficient for your needs, even single chamber. They create a lot of micro-droplets and folded bubble layers and other funky shit that gets the relative humidity in the charge up to maximum really quickly, and a moisture-saturated charge isn't going to pick up any new moisture from the lining of your lungs, which dramatically cuts the irritation factor.
Anyway, if the piece has a removable mouthpiece and you want a second chamber, you can just stack one on. And then put whatever sort of mouthpiece you want on top.
I agree, which is why my first post on this topic opened with this:

Lol! As cool as dry ice fog coming out of a bong would be, "dry ice" is solid carbon dioxide, so unfortunately it would also slightly suffocate you... or at least make you pretty dizzyHell, if you're feeling good and fancy, put some dry ice in there, and now you don't have to worry about it evapourating and raising the water level (though it may carbonate your water slightly

It wouldn't suffocate you if you were in a room filled with, well, air, but it would quite likely freeze all your water.
