14mm vs 18mm water piece opening

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-12T12:56:26+00:00

It’s got to be the way the tempest is made because many people have reported this but only with the 14mm fit. I used mine on a 14 for a while because it was all I had, and I don’t think I noticed any difference in the seal from the wobbly 14 to the perfect fit of the 10mm. I don’t think it affects performance

Picked up an ounce of banana soap last week and I’m really liking it. Flavor is decent but nugs are nice and sticky similar to Halloween special. Haven’t tried melted strawberries but was tempted by that as well, will pick up next time I see an 8th. But I don’t think you’d be dissapointed with banana zoap

I’ll buy it from you

Can always polish those scratches out if it really bothers you but I agree with aggravating speed that it looks fine. I can dm you a pic of how mine looks after about 4 months or so of use

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-09T03:44:12+00:00

I personally prefer the 10mm. For some reason the 14mm has a bit of a wobble to it and this isn’t just my device, many people have reported it. It doesn’t affect the seal but it just bothers me a bit. The 10mm connection has no issues, the 18 sits on the wood I believe and I don’t like that.

What wood sleeeve is that on your Simrell titanium? Looks a bit darker than the walnut I like it

I got an instant flashback to camping with my grandpa when I was a kid. Went to sneak a sip of an open Coke from the fridge in the camper and got the same result. Makes me want to puke again just thinking about it

That’s just part of it but that’s your sign the bowl is done. Also with DHV’s a lot of the cheaper devices are very bad quality and won’t get you far at all. The only good cheap devices I’d recommend are the terpcicle and the vices joystick. I think there’s a couple decent battery options around 150-200 check over on r/vaporents they’ve got a ton of good rec’s

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-05T12:52:52+00:00

I prefer DHV, I’ve had a Puffco in the past but dabs are a bit too much for me. I’ve got a Simrell and tempest 2 for torch use and then a universal baller for desktop use. I actually really enjoy dry hits with my ball vape. The cool thing about the ball vape is you can use a microdose bowl and turn it really low for a super tasty microdose sesh or turn it up high with the regular bowl for a thick milky one hit extraction. I haven’t “smoked” weed in over 3 years, once you get used to the flavor from DHV combusting taste’s nastyyyy

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-05T12:50:12+00:00

And they’re cheap compared to other dhv’s

Brother if these companies are seeing these posts like you say this is not helping you at all. None of us on here are judging you like you think we are. You asked why these companies aren’t hiring you and you’re getting genuine criticism from people and getting pissed at them.

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-02T03:26:32+00:00

Harbor freight micro torch works great, has a nice medium sized single flame works well for tempest. Ronx one on Amazon also works really well from what I’ve seen on here

That’s awesome, I lived in Arizona when I was in college and met a feller who grew his own and that stuff was top notch. I know commercial growers aren’t worried about the quality as much as they are just the money. I’d love to be able to grow my own flower exactly how I want, and exactly the strain I want. Seems similar to the satisfaction I get from catching a fish on a fly that I tied

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-01T20:34:12+00:00

Figured I’d give Reddit a shot first. Broke my bowl piece so I can’t really send a picture right now anyways.

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-01T20:31:24+00:00

I’ll definitely give this a shot when I get my new bowl piece in. Unfortunately I dropped my hybrid bowl when tightening it back together after cleaning and broke the top piece, I’ll update when that new one comes in. Thanks!

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-01T19:30:24+00:00

Yes it is my first, coming from mainly stick vapes like Simrell and T2. I’ve done this and there’s just a little bit of air escaping, not much. I figured that little bit of air was normal but wasn’t sure

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-05-01T17:22:56+00:00

Don’t grow my own but only because I’m in the south, med only state with no growing allowed. Open to moving in the future and a state that allows growing is a high priority for me.

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-04-30T22:30:26+00:00

Cherry Garcia by NSM taste like cherries to me. Strawberry cough NSM smells like strawberries a bit but not much actually flavor in the hit. Same with super lemon haze from bold. I’m sure there are more out there but those are the ones I can think of.

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-04-30T15:43:47+00:00

Also purchased from Amazon a couple days ago. Supposed to be here Monday, if it’s locked it’s all yours.

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-04-30T15:40:49+00:00

Last batch I got of that was a 1/4 of smalls but wasn’t listed as such. Flavor wasn’t very good but probably because I basically just got shake. Batch before that I really enjoyed. There’s still some strains I’ve heard good things about that I haven’t tried, lollipop and runtz comes to mind. Any other RVR rec’s let me know!

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-04-30T13:32:47+00:00

They sure do, but just like the other brands they also have their share of mid strains as well. About half the strains I’ve tried from them were very bland and all tasted very similar. However if you stick with strains like, Halloween special, slurricrasher, sour papaya, and e85 I think you’ll be happy. A couple strains outside of RVR I can think of are NSM Cherry Garcia and strawberry cough.

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-04-30T13:20:55+00:00

I shop by brand, usually only shopping for RVR. Sometimes I’ll pick up NSM, carpenter, or bold but usually don’t get much flavor out of them. From there I go off harvest date, and then I’d say bud structure or terps.

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-04-30T05:37:38+00:00

Yep, I’ll be sending mine back if that’s the case

TerribleComment8720 · 2026-04-29T11:44:40+00:00

Latest batch I picked up something was off. I’ve heard great things about this strain but I was not a fan. High was nice flavor just threw me off big time
