That's some serious shit. And here I am no longer even able to take a single puff without being thrust into another damn dimension.

Just seen the video, do you not put water in the bong? I'm using a similar bong and a ballvape. Your kinda-ballvape produces a good amount of smoke, looks nice

I appreciate it thanks for taking a look. The setup took a lot of work and creative thinking over the year slowly understanding what was needed and sourcing the aftermarket parts to get it extracting real nice. The extremeq is an excellent desktop vape done dirty by its stock parts.

I prefer using the orb dry more I like watching the turbulent vapor swirls completely fill up the piece. I do use water in it too when in the mood for it.

Water is good when you are vaping a lot and need some moisture to not get a dry throat. But it gets murky, starts to taste bad and contributes to reclaim deposits forming on the inner glass I think. It filters out some of the plant oils you want in the vapor.

I was absolutely surprised at how much vapor was produced with such little herb. The middle bowl here Is the one used in the video like maybe .05-.1 g?

If I had put the big 18mm omega wand bowl in there it would have really milked up the glass quick lol.

This setup is a microdosing dream!

500℉ set on the vape seems excessive, do you vape at that temp?

[–] Smokeydope@lemmy.world 4 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Good attetion to detail. I have ruby balls directly above the heater so it behaves more like a ball vape. They balance things out while improving the extraction.

Thank you! I added a video link to the description if you wanted to see it in action.

Well shit, that's an impressive looking setup

Any downsides?

Thank you for the reply! The glass orb doesn't take falls very well its a relatively fragile piece. However its cheap enough to replace from time to time.

The vaporizer itself requires no maintenance. The adapters and stuff inserted into it needs cleaning after awhile.

The glass orb is easy to clean, the pieces that insert into the vaporizer need cleaning from time to time. The metal omega wand extraction device works best with some melted beeswax covering it so it doesn't stick into the glass adapters it inserts into. It uses metal bowl screens which need cleaning.

I'm so glad I quit cannabis
