Discontinued Vapor Lithe

[justcametomind]

I got it today, I chose the cheaper model on the site at the moment of ordering. I don't know if it's because of this, but the bottom of the chamber screen is quite loose imo, when pulling as seen in the videos above to pack the chamber, I get herb in my mouth. Should I try to put another screen inside?
They say not to pack the bowl too much, and to leave 4-5 mm, but hey even if I do like this I'll put almost 1 gram inside. It's too much for me! Is it ok to put small amounts or I'll just breath my small amount when trying fill up the vape?

I added a second screen that you just have to use a paper clip or something skinny to poke it out later when it gets gunked up. I found the holes too big in the built in screen too, for my grind. I only put about 1/3 to 1/2 full and get vapor, it just takes a bit more heating to get it going. Definite learning curve with this little vape, use a mirror to see the flame go into the end, you just want the very tip of the fire.

I added a second screen as well and connected to my little glass.

Do you have to apply the flame all the time on drawing? Or just flame it while drawing and then stop flaming and continuing drawing? Or you just have to apply the torch, warm it, and only then drawing.
I dont' remember how, but I got some tasty vapor a moment ago.

 

[jambandphan03]

I pull the tip of the flame (blue or yellow) into the little hole, with my draw, just the very tip. Then I just heat this way until I see vapor forming in the glass, then I remove the heat so I don't over do it, and continue to hit using the residual heat until the vapor thins then I clear it. If not using glass, I just go by taste/feel.

I really hope to like it flavorwise using a bic lighter.
I tried yesterday and it was fun to see the flame going "inside" the tip while pulling.
I think this should be the way to use it but I have a lot of tests to do still, and having the minivap around is not of any help.

I find the vapor lithe tastes alot like the mflb..very woodsy taste. I myself like to puff it like a pipe periodically and take low draws while it heats up.I have no set method, just go by taste..
I take my VL with me when I'm out in public, on the sneak tip..I'm having the same dilemma @justcametomind my mv is such an attention whore!

Who knows a good place to buy a quality torch lighter?
I use some inexpensive lighters got at dealextreme.com but they last me a session or 2.

 

[jambandphan03]

I've been using Vector small torch lighters. The Vector VOLT is a really nice one. Also if you want a larger fuel tank, the Blazer Torch is also a good brand with a larger tank. I found mine on amazon.com or ebay.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vector-KGM-...024?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20ce12d870

These are a couple of good brands to look at. That Vector Volt is a slick little lighter but doesn't hold much fuel.

Seems like I got the last unit or what?
http://vapquick.com/ I can't see any unit on sale recently. Also tried being logged in.

This is kinda a normal thing for the vapquick site, last time I bought one they didn't have any listed but a Gamma golden wood lithe about 10 days latter they had light brown and then nothing for a week or so more. I really hope the lithe is going to be produced for years to come its my favorite to gift to those I know.

 

[Nbajunkie]

I wonder what happened..Hope they are just updating the site.Id really like a purpleheart lithe vape. Thats the only way I would gift my lithevape

 

[RUDE BOY]

yeah NBA , I have 2 for my own use that aren't going anywhere , I give 'em for B-days and X-mas and
just to turn people on to vapor , at $50 you can't go wrong gifting one to any herb lover.

 

[justcametomind]

With this bong it's better, I'm capable of seeing the vapor and stop heating in time. I'm scared of using the Lithe without glass. I never combusted if not lightly and I don't want to risk to burn the wood on the inside.

 

[RUDE BOY]

I've never combusted in a lithe vape i only use bics I don't own any Glass, a friend of mine burned badly in thiers but the diffuser was unscrewed a bunch and using a large torch. I have gotten some Black chunks on the top from overfilling and not grinding the herb, although you can Vape small pieces
of bud in it if you don't overfill it [i use mine 1/2 to 2/3 of chamber] . Enjoy your day , I do Love the way the lithe looks with glass.

[jambandphan03]

@Jam, Lithe speed wrote me yesterday :lithe-speed 'Unfortunately the purple heart wood loses its beautiful purple color in a few months, the wood is one of the toughest out there, only the lightest tone opurple heart conserve its light purple tone , the brightest colored ones eventually turn brownish or black, that is the reason why I do not manufacture many vapes out of that kind of wood, some people feel diappointed with the new color.'
Hope that helps..
@Lithe-speed, Great to have you onboard! I cant wait to hear the insight you have to offer.Also I cant wait to see the new models..

 

[jambandphan03]

thanks for the update Nba good to know. I already have 2 lithes anyway. Looking forward to seeing the new design, if it works out.

Hello rude boy...That golden yellow wood is called "moral" here in Colombia,It is definitely a noble wood. good to cut, good to turn, good to drill ,good to finish.. can take a lot of heat without cracking... Doesnt have much wood taste.. since it is a clear wood, heat makes it turn progressively darker at the top, making an interesting seasoned color contrast.... fading from dark brown to golden yellow.

Well. The new model was conceived by listening to people´s complains.The present model has better looks, performance and size of the chamber are similar, the new model (if it ever sees production) is longer for more comfortable distance to the eye, the vaporizing unit is an aluminum assembly indepenedent of the wooden holder( it is split in two).It can be Adapted to any bubbler or similar pipe, can be thermaly abused without damage , Has removable screen which is held in place by a retaining nut.The exposed metal lends itsef for heating up/cooling down quickly but it also is kind of dangerous to handle , you have to be very aware that the thing is super hot.The vaporizing unit can be dunk in iso for thorough cleaning, the area in contact with metal has been reduced, making it hot only in a reduced area.

Sounds like it works, but A picture is worth a thousand words

Hi lithe-speed ... Any info on the long promised concentrate attachment ?

Hi lithe-speed ... Any info on the long promised concentrate attachment ?

Hello mr bulgarian dude..Yes I have conducted some tests on a concentrate attachment but I found that they en up being too messy because part of the oil migrates by capilarity and volatility into the vape which calls for frecuent cleaning, maybe with the new model(which is easier to clean) I´LL do some more testing of the Mentioned attachment. I believe however, that vaporization does the same(effectwise) as burning concentrated resin, with vaporization you are taking into your system only water vapor andTHC containing resin Which is entirely on the surface of the bud, leaving behind the cellulose and a host of other undesirable compounds natural to the combustion of any plant.

You can let some of the next FC guys that jump on the lithe test it too .. FC guys seem to be skillful users at most . Have u considered some kind of screen that can hold oils like the volcano or aromeds liquid pad . It would be awesome if you can vape via convection concentrates on the go , they are easier to carry than flowers and easier to hide .
