partially veiled said:Maybe a more important thing to consider is how you like your hit to feel. Either perc will provide ample amounts of diffusion for vapor but the feeling of the hit should be a little different. The circs should be slightly "airier" (if that's a word) with more uniform bubbles and a little less drag. The trees should be a little tighter, with chuggier bubbles and slightly more restriction or drag. In real life the actual differences are quite small honestly, and it takes a lot of experience and a lot of attention to really "get it"

The tree design should be slightly quieter, while the showerdome will have less drag. This is all spelled out in more detail, just one page back, in a repost by me, and a post by partially veiled.Pete Jones said:Which HT would be quieter, and which would be smoother (in terms of needing just an even inhalation)?

Max: I appreciate the reference, but I asked my question because the description that you earlier supplied is not clear about which would be quieter: "ShowerDome - Drag free, nice rumble, great diffusion, medium sized bubbles. HydraTree - 'smoother' sounding, instead of rumble, more of a fizzy sound." That post describes different sounds, but does not speak to volume. Perhaps you were assuming, or suggesting that I should assume, that a fizz is quieter than a rumble, but that certainly is not always true, particularly in the way that sound travels. Thanks.

Would you say it's loud enough to draw unwanted attention if you are vaping in a house that frowns upon pot? Lost my apartment a few months ago and I'm back with the parents. If the Cloud is too noisy I may have a real problem on my hands.IAmKrazy2 said:Either HT will not be uber loud, but please consider the VX itself makes a whistle as the air bounces around the vape path.

he did say he lives back with his parents, im sure he's got the smell issue down with either a sploof or just blowin it out the window and makin sure none of it gets in the room. Honestly its prob nothing like a bong sound, because the loudest most noticeable part of a bong is when you pull your slide, in this case you wouldnt, unless you lift the unit out and essentially "clear" it every hit if you must have toIAmKrazy2 said:You could always hit lighter for less whisle, in my head smell would be much much more of an issue. The sound wouldn't be heard in another room, or over a tv or a little music. Its not very loud, and don't see why anyone would have issues unless riping right by someone else, like behind their back in a quiet room or something.
Still am baffled this could be an issue for stealth vs smell inside.

I have a HEPA Air Purifier and use a Smoke Buddy for exhaling. The Smoke Buddy is a true godsend. The only issues I have with smell are when I'm grinding the bud, but I've learned to pre-grind a few days worth and do so with an open window and fan on low. My guess is the sound just seems louder in the videos, thanks for clarifying IAmKrazy2.IAmKrazy2 said:Still am baffled this could be an issue for stealth vs smell inside.
