Got Wifey 1 of these for christmas & she loves it .
She can use it all day & still have enough left from a g for an albeit v smal joint just before bed should she want it :mrgreen:
1 battery charge was lasting all day , took roughly 2.5 - 3 hrs to fully charged it back up again in the morning but she now has the plug adapter so the battery is just for if she wants it on the go .
Going to look into a stealthy "holder" of sorts for her .
15mm screens slightly cut to size to stop bits falling through ,fit into the tube very nicely , Wifey has found that she gets a better hit if she grinds her weed :mrgreen:

All in all a great buy :mrgreen:

+we're saving AVB alot faster :wink:

Glad you're digging the vape, ft. I divide and store my already-been-vaped in two jars, marked indica and sativa, for more focused results.

:mrgreen: had thought of that & may still do it just unfortunatly don't get alot of sativa's so mixing everything in is easier :oops: :mrgreen:

AVB is very useful :mrgreen:

Does wifey have any tips on getting decent clouds? I'm struggling here. It's getting me high but it's taking way too long to get through a stem meaning only 2-3 stems per charge :| Sometimes I need to do 2 stems wo one session on a charge. It kind of defeats the point of having a portable vape if I have to take the charger everywhere.

Well both kind of. I want bigger hits so that I can get through a bowl quicker which in turn should improve the number of uses per battery charge. I think my question was a bit premature as now my stems are a bit looser I am getting better hits. Its still taking 20 mins to get through a 0.1g bowl though. Any hints or tips would be much appreciated. Thanks to you and wifey in advance :D

The cheese is very good in my part of the world too. I know where you're coming from :mrgreen:

Your right about the pipe screens. Theyre a must.

Do you preheat your stems with herbs?

Yeah. Im actually a lot happier now as the stems are a lot looser so im getting better airflow. I can now make an airtight seal around the stem and get good hits without putting strain on my lungs like before.

My consumption is down 2/3 - 3/4 now its working right. Couldn't be happier. Getting through the month on a lowish wage is gonna become a whole lot easier.

Any thoughts on PVHES? I'm happy with the stock stems for now but these do look interesting. Shame they're so expensive from the one UK supplier I know of. I got stung at customs buying a santa cruz shredder from the US so not really keen on ordering from there or Canada any more.

hi,you seem to have it, wifey says it is all about how tight the stem fits,1st few goes with new stem she doesn't like.
she prefers the bent stem's ,even with the screens,it help's stop the tiny specks getting to the throat.
she also gets the biggest hits using it upside down,the solo not her :wink: :lol: ,does screw the whole stealth issue though :wink:

Paco yeah the pvhes do look sick. They seem to sell out really fast so they must be good.
I'll let you know if I decide to get one.

ft thanks for enquiring. All it took was a little patience. I've only used the straight stems so far as I see myself having to chase the bent one around after a few hits :lol: Now they're nice and loose I don't really want to switch.
Not actually had any bits reach my throat but I don't like having the bits stuck in the stem. It just feels dirty so I've got some screens coming.

I put some pressed keif in it last night and it really hit the spot. Highly recommended.

got an airizer solo while in AMS last week.... waiting for it to arrive.

in the shop, it worked REALLY well.

had it set to 7 (the highest setting), loaded a bowl and the thing was vaping well.

I also just got a flashvape.... its cool, but more of a learning curve to get it vaping well.... i still cant get it as well as I see in the youtube videos.

...cheap, high-quality, fine enough for kief, and they ship free priority mail.
In Europe I guess you would order from S&B's mothership.

And kief/dry-sift is really nice through the vape, especially convection models- so much so that
I'm going to be hunting for as much unpressed hash variety as I can find while in mokum- grey
crystals are already on the shopping list.

Thanks EasilySuede ive ordered some cheap basil bush screens for now but il maybe try those next time.

Are you in the US dconstrukt? Solos are so cheap there it may have been better to buy locally. $160 I believe. Cheaper on ebay. They were €199 in dam when I looked. As long as your happy I guess. Nothings worse than waiting for packages. I feel your pain. 7's a bit high I usually start on 4 and end on 6. Its all personal preference though
