Probably DNS?

Nice. Happy vaping!

Quite a haul! Always nice to add to the collection.

True #StonerEngineering!

Ingenious.

I mean, by like Group Policy, sure, but typically random websites don’t get to set policy on machines that visit them!

I can’t think of any server -side implementation that would achieve that, and no client-side scripts should have that access/privilege. At that point, your “browser” is full RAT/malware anyway

Noice. Stay frosty my frient.

If budget is restricted the Anvil is probably not the vape you are looking for! That is one of the probably valid criticisms that can be levelled at it, and at Dyna too for that matter.

I have never tried a Volcano or Crafty, but I have a Mighty, and the OG Pax was actually my first vape. I would reach for the Dyna/Anvil over both 90% of the time, fwiw.

Yeah, iirc the clicker is in the top of the chamber, not in the oven, and there’s a lot of thermal mass in the copper core overn, so by the time you get that click it’s had a fair bit of time to heat-soak.

For reference, using my single flame torch it typically takes around 45 seconds or so to get to the first click on the Anvil, versus 20-something for my Dynas.

Good question! It actually has a much more distinct click, and ‘they’ say this vape is all about riding the line (RTL, for those unfamiliar with the phrase, means “riding the line” between vaping and combustion, so a full spectrum big hit is the goal. Not for temp steppers!); which the clicks facilitate.

It uses convection, mostly; the actual chamber is kinda suspended in the oven - you heat the oven, then inhalation draws hot air through the chamber, vaopourising the material.

It has some detractors, largely (as often seems to be the case in vaping world) based on the maker, Vestratto, which I won’t rehash here, but in that respect is remarkably similar to recent drama surroudnding Dynavap and Simrell, for instance. So there are parallels that extend beyond the form factor/tech!

I think it’s not too controversial to say that most of those who hate it don’t have one and wouldn’t get one, while those who have one tend to love it and discount the drama.

I love it! i actually use it most on a Simrell MVS, I find it smoother than the stock stem.

Good points! I also use a dimpled long stem [with the TM] about 60% of the time, it’s not pocket-friendly but gottdamm it’s good in the house. I have a bong, but most of the time I’ll use the 3D stem or the J Hook.

That’s a really good point

That stem looks like it would be a bastard to store/transport; and enough of a joy to use you don’t give a shit!

Can you decap the Dyna with that interesting top section of your grinder, or does it just provide a convenient rest?

Now that is a salutation I can get behind! Blessed day to you also frient!

Sounds like it tickes all the boxes! How do you cope with the ever expanding range of vapes, accessories and cleaning products, or are you superhuman and immune to VAS??

Nothing savage about blazin da herb, although it’s definitely not the best for your health. I started smoking spliffs when I was 13, so the muscle memory and association means that as soon as I start rolling I get this Pavlovian relaxation effect, no actual combusion/ingestion required. I’m not quite there with vaping, which I’ve “only” been doing for about nine years. I still have the occasional zoot, but for health reasons I try to restrict it to holidays and special occasions. But nothing wrong with bunning the occasional zoot, I reckon, whatever the purists might say.

Yeah, from my perspective, the main reason you use water with combustion is to cool the smoke down so it’s not as harsh. Vapour is cooler than smoke, and if you put your vapour through water, it stands to reason that you are going to filter out some small percentage of the volatile terpenes etc. At the very least, it doesn’t taste as fruity; and at worst you’re reducing the amount of good stuff getting to your lungs. I can see how if you have particularly sensitive lungs/throat, that might be a trade-off you’re willing to take. At least one of my mates finds even vapour too harsh for them, and for them I think water might be a good choice. I also think that for vaping, if you are going to use water, warm water makes sense. Again, we’re not really going for cooling; and adding moisture back into the dry vapour would make sense from that perspective for smoothness’ sake.

The Kaiju Crush is a solid brew. Aus has a thriving microbrewery industry, and I always like choosing a six pack of something I haven’t trtied before. I’m also partial to a cup of tea with my cannabis partaking, whether vaping or combustion.

Hah! I have the GRAV j-hook, and I have to confess I’ve never put water in it; I can def see the appeal of the eloquently-described purring sensation. As I noted in that other post, I rarely put water in ‘water’ pieces, but you make it sound eminently attractive.

I have to say I’m surprised the TM hasn’t found a home in your bounteous collection. As far as battery portables go, it’s pretty nearly end-game for what I would imagine would be a majority of users. There are more powerful vapes, and more beatiful ones, but not available without going on waiting lists and shit; ain’t nobody got time for that. Well, maybe I do. But I don’t have the budget at this stage.

No worries! It’s a great vape, I suspect any detractors have not got the technique down pat (altho, as I prove, you don’t need to have perfect technique to enjoy it!). It is often described as functional art, and I have to say I can’t disagree. It’s definitely a connoisseur’s vape - not in a snobby way, but those who just want to get from A to B as fast as possible will likely have no truck with it; it’s something to be savoured and enjoyed, for those who enjoy the Ritual™. If that’s you, and you like butane vapes, it’s a lock afaiac.
