Edit: (well now i'm thinking i wouldn't use both UFOs, they are sort of similar. Pete's UFO is just so ugly lmao.
so maybe just the FC-UFO, and a nice tall bong that would remind me of my high school years?
)
Edit 2: Ok one last question i swear guys...
I am using my mobius trying to figure out what it "lacks"
And i think it IS, not enough flavor...
Now i am not a connoseiur or "flavor chaser" by any means, but i think the lack of flavor just
makes it seem like i'm smoking nothing. And maybe thats why "ah ain't satisfied!" hmmph
Also i dont like the sidecar position!
i would rather go straight-on...I'm a traditional kinda gal
So any way...i watched some videos of a Rattlecan, which is supposed to be great for flavor, right?
Perhaps that and the FC-UFO would be a good combination...but where would my tall bong fit in?
i have $90 to spend.
Edit3:
i've ordered the FC-UFO and the FC-710 (Diffusion Pump). wish me luck!
Haha yeah so there's no reason to get the Sneaky Pete UFO if you don't even like the looks of it! Never seen anyone using that piece around here before anyway...
Yeah that is why I sold my matrix, aside from the deeper female joint in it, and not liking the mouthpiece (mine was not a sidecar) it really diffuses way too much compared to others I've tried... Also it was just too big?
Yeah the FC UFO will be very versatile, allows you to add hydro tubes and other crazy mouthpiece options... Seems like a good balance of diffusion and flavor with that big circ perc (I like those much better than matrix, which is why I chose that style for the FC-Mod I got, which is a knock off of vxl devastator for hydrotube connection)
I understand the temptation to grab a classic tube bong, but they're really not so effective for most vapes in my experience, I think you will get more good use out of that FC710, I've never tried a rattle can either but does sound pretty nice!
Of course best flavor with dry cooling J hooks etc....
In the end I think you made a good choice with different types of glass that compliment what you already have. You could have made other choices and still been happy, but these should serve you well. The UFO is an excellent base piece for building or for using alone and with the jointed mouthpiece provides the most flexibility of my collection. The 710 is very similar to the Rattlecan that I truly enjoy and is a great hand held piece. I think it has a male joint, however, and that may be an issue for you. You hadn't mentioned it in your ruminations. A female to female adapter should resolve any issues.
Damn yeah, I forgot I do kind of want to get FC UFO for myself still even though I have no need, I think I would like it more than the FC Mod I got, short fat can instead of tall narrow can, though I guess they really would work similarly? I have been tempted to sell my FC mod so I can replace it with one of those Sunshine store Hydra Base knock-offs instead, they have male 18 mm joint for the mouthpiece hydro tube instead of female like the FC UFO, but not sure what would really be different practically??
Seems like rattle can maybe should be the next thing on my list finally though...
Nonono...let me reiterate! i think the "flavor" is what lets me sense when to stop inhaling. Since it's sort of wisp-y and nothingness, and i have seen others say the same about glass with these "matrix percs"
Anyway since its like that, i was guessing its flavor, but maybe there is a better word for it.
Yeah air flow is really a different thing, dependent on the vape and the glass, how you load and you yourself how you are inhaling!
Aw crud. I already need like seven adapters but they're coming via dhGate so they are taking for-evvvv-er!
if I need any small accessories i'll go to my local smoke shop
I so despise squinting
at glass adapters on a screen!
Oh you ordered adapters from DHgate? I would have told you not to, better to order them from eBay so you can choose local suppliers, much much faster shipping and still super cheap... Even Amazon has some stuff sometimes, and many other US online stores, but yeah if you can go to a local shop and pick something up in person that would be very nice and hopefully not overpriced!
The Rattlecan and the 710 are interesting. The vapor spends a lot of it's voyage under water, but inside the glass channel. Most of the cooling takes place there. There is only an inch or so that it actually spends in the water. It is surprising that as much cooling takes place as it does, but I think the small distance it travels through water is why it retains flavor so well. I use mine quite a bit. It uses a lot of water so requires the most CE of any of my pieces.
The D020 is a small basic piece. I think it may have been the first glass piece I bought as a vaper. It works fine for what it is as long as you aren't expecting too much.
My favorite piece of the D020 family is the D022. It is tall and kinda thin, basicly of the Sheldon Black style like the Goo Roo pieces. That is frankly what makes me want one of them. It also has a removable downstem which I like. The D022 has kinda a "tumor" on the stem side that is inconvenient to clean. The originals of this design don't have that and that is why I lust for them, but I do love the D022, tumor and all. I'll include a link or pic...
Didn't have a pic. Had to take one.
BTW, there IS an upside to the "tumor". It extends the stem out significantly so you can get a good look at the can when you are taking a hit so it is easier to know what to expect. If/when I get the Goo Roo I may well use one of my stems that angle me away from the can.
I remember that one! It also always tempted me in the past, I had skipped the D020 originally and got one with ratchet perc instead, then honeycomb ashcatcher, used with LSV and underdog, before I got my inline honeycomb rig that replaced them... That one is just so broadly effective, good balance of flavor and diffusion, good air flow, solid form factor, to use with any vape at all and even for dabbing (though a recycler is more fun for that do I have a little one of those now too) but yeah seems like I should be looking into the rattle can now after all!
sucks
