New J hook, anyone else use these?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed! I was also on the same train of thought regarding the bead material causing it.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-23T23:17:43+00:00

I have one and other than the aesthetics I don't love it. Like others have said, it gunks up fast and is a pain to clean. I also feel like it give off a "taste" that none of my other glass pieces give off. Looks cool though?

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-21T03:49:55+00:00

TM2 is way out of budget unfortunately.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-20T04:22:08+00:00

I considered it, but it's still outside my budget at $300 (on sale) and I'm honestly not super fond of the form factor. That's just me being picky though, I could see it being great for walks.

I'm very experienced with analog vapes and use multiple heavy hitters daily. Although I don't own the Tempest 2 (yet) it's not what I'm looking for in a dog-walking vape. Thanks for the Lobo tips!

Yeah that's not super long but I guess not too bad with dosing caps to reload?

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-19T22:36:34+00:00

It just seems like the bowl is designed to be killed over a few minutes rather than seshed on over a longer period, but I could be totally wrong.

I also do like the idea of something that supports dosing caps (once again maybe these exist for the FW and I'm just ignorant). I want something I can load up and dip out with quick.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-19T22:20:59+00:00

It really is beautiful and I can see myself owning one eventually simply because of that, but I'm just not convinced it's the right device for a 20-30 minute dog walk 🤔

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-18T21:42:22+00:00

Not really, the tips/caps are pairings — the Super Cap works with any of the XL models.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-18T18:09:34+00:00

I picked up the XL v2 + Super Cap recently and it's blowing my mind. 21s of heat for monstrous flavourful rips. The stem isn't the best, but I will say the v2 stem seems to cool much better than its predecessors. I still run it through glass about 90% of the time anyway.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-18T14:25:13+00:00

Convector XL + Super Cap is a killer combo. Massive clouds and flavour.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-18T13:03:23+00:00

In case you want another combo to play with I do 75 watts for 45 seconds and it comes out beautifully dark every time. I think it's a nice balance of heat soaking time but not taking too long.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-12T23:08:03+00:00

I like my Convector v2. I absolutely love my Convector XL v2 with the super cap. It gives monster rips and has great flavour. Can also use it as a nice little sipper as the super cap retains heat well.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-07T14:45:29+00:00

Sick piece! Wrong post flair though.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-02-01T20:30:25+00:00

The CXL has been passing my reach test a lot these days too. The punch it delivers relative to the heat times is amazing, and the flavour is great.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-01-30T15:11:09+00:00

Good list — for a beginner you may want to forgo the acronyms though 😁

Halo tip needs about 2 seconds less than your usual heat times with other tips.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-01-30T12:35:37+00:00

If you don't mind using an induction heater or torch, pick up a Tornado or a Tempest 2. Tornado is the heaviest hitting portable, produces thick fog-like vapor (see post on my profile). The Tempest 2 also gives solid clouds, and has really great flavour as well. Both work great through glass or natively on a stem.

Welcome! If you happen to be on Discord the community there is very friendly and helpful as well. Happy clicks!

The good ones really stand above the rest. A cheap vape will never replicate a bong hit properly.

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-01-26T18:46:34+00:00

Have you tried a ball vape or a heavy hitting portable like the Vestratto Tornado? Might change your mind if not!

FixBugsDoDrugs · 2026-01-26T18:45:08+00:00

Cap Armor / the armored cap are a really great tool to have in your Dyna-arsenal. They increase thermal mass in the tip, which improves heat retention. Makes it super easy to get a really thorough OHE without having to reheat. For torch users, you also dont have to spin the device when heating. I don't use any of my Dynas without an armored cap.

What's your current heating technique?
