I just got one of these things. My weed was supposed to arrive yesterday, and some ketamine, but only the vape arrived on time.
Was low-dosing my drug of addiction in anticipation of doing test and titration doses of the ket so I was absolutely crawling up the walls for the first half of the day until I knew nothing was coming.
But! This lil vape doohickey made for a pretty chill fidget toy during all that coping.
Do you have a dynavap or one of the clones, and do you rate them as highly as all the influencer mufuckaz that contributed to my buying one with what little cash I have to work with this fortnight?
I really didn't want to slip right back into combustion after my tolerance break, and my old vape's batteries are mostly worn out and it's filthy and falling apart so yea. Got one. Looking forward to hopefully trying it out today.
I LOVE mine. What I would do with the default cap is one hit pointing the torch at the tip, ceased right at the click, and a followup heating ~1 full second at the base to go to SPAAAAAAAAACE.
Your assessment of insufficient thermal mass for 1 hit extraction is correct.
There is an Official Armored Cap (non-affiliate link to a canadian vendor), along with a metal sleeve by Simrell collection (non-affiliate link to canadian store) which increase thermal mass for "I can't believe it's not a bong rip!".
Get the cheapest M you can find with either one of those for maximum dorifto.
I've had a 2018m and a 2021m, and a 2020 omni Ti tip and while they do genuinely improve each year, the basic functionality remains unchanged.
They also have the silicone B with a half bowl tip designed for one hit extraction where spinning is optional. It is also shaped to natively fit in a 14mm downstem, although I have not personally tried it.
My setup back in the day was a Simrell Techtonic stem + Omni Ti Tip + Perforated cap mated to a percless straight tube 14mm bong.
Don't buy a glass stem as your only option, but my bb6 was siiiiick while it lasted.
fuck yeah, thanks. I'll give your technique a go during my next session.
My tolerance must be rock bottom right now I'm still pretty lit, didn't pack it properly the first bowl and tipped it early, nearly combusted the second one (came so close to a teardown and clean fail, phew) very uneven ABV. I'll figure it out.
yeah I was thinking about getting an FMJ or smn, but I think it's wiser to learn the vape first then upgrade if I need to foolproof it for friends and/or simplify/perfect one hit extractions.
I'm messing around with the M7 XL.
I misspoke, I heat the bottom both times, one as a pre-heat terpy rip, and the second as the C L O U D S
You go any further than two* big hits on a standard cap?
I came so close to setting that bowl on fire that I had my non-smoking housemate come sniff the vape for me just to make sure. The ABV at the tip was right on the point of scorched, probably loaded too much in.
Gonna switch out the brulé torch for one of my uh, more classic utensils.
edit: typo'd
That's roughly the angle I would hold it above the torch as I rotated.
Also, if you are trying to get FUCKED, the dugout or stand with the magnet can remove a hot tip handsfree (with some practice) and cools it down significantly faster than air.
www.futo.ca (the OEM for the officially licensed dugout) and etsy have cheaper alternatives to the DYNAVAP DYNASTASH dugout. I think "LevatedCreations" was the one I had.
I am indeed generally trying to get completely toasted.
It was a tough call not spending the extra for one of those magnet cap remover / weed stash / abv container dealies. I'm glad I restrained cuz we've got unexpected expenses dropped in our lap, but yeah that's on the get next list.
Luckily before I got soft I did enough food service / "kitchen" work that many of my finger tips are basically like a kung fu warrior- very little nerve sensation. Dated a chef way back too, a lot of her young hard ass attitude rubbed off on me. Long story short I can just pop the cap off with the tip of the torch, reload and it's very little risk or discomfort getting the cap back on n situated. Still, the contraption is available locally and would make things easier, no sense in ongoing damage. Haven't burnt myself yet tho, heheh might change my cavalier tune.
Lol just remembered getting a disturbingly large burn working at a kebab shop and the boss freaking out and I'm like "BURN SPRAY? WHAT THE FUCK IS BURN SPRAY LET ME GET BACK TO WORK" lmao
Anyway. Thanks for the diagram.
No, but I personally like more potent abv, the color of a triple triple coffee.
I heat roughly where the bowl ends and heat dissipation fins begin as the "bottom". that i spin. Give me a minute and I will MSpaint a picture of a 2021 M.
Yo, by "bottom" can you describe exactly which end of the cap you're heating? Near the de-bowler or the end with the bimetalic bit in it and the "rim" that looks like an extractor could remove it from a firearm if it were a shell casing? If you get what I mean.
edit: seen a lot of people say aim for the N in the logo, but I was fucking around and just torched a bowl. Pretty convenient how you can just blow the abv out lol.
Honestly should probably have saved my money and gone with this but the silicone just doesn't appeal on a tactile level. When it's cold this thing is fun to fingerfuck.
