That's the way it works for me as well. Travels are better when the mood and energy is right.

Let us know how it works out next week Tim 🖖

BTW I have made a short e-mesh howto with images here:

I made a fixed mesh with the 100 micron ss. My voopoo drag read it at .16 ohms. It seems that if my ohms on my voopoo drag on not in the .2-.25 my temp is way off. My drag was set at 100 degrees celsius on my drag and the my temperature radar device read it at 300 degrees celsius.

The mesh doesn't touch the rda bottom? And glow evenly on top?
TCR?

I suppose the mesh glows bright?

Sounds weird. Can you please provide more information about your setup, and possibly pics?

Instead of manual TCR he uses a SS preset with unknown TCR. I think the voodoo might give a too high temp with that preset. Seems like the Voodoo also has stability issues measuring the correct resistance.

mattw1994, In my opinion TC is superior to Wattage mode, but.. If you are up for it you could experiment with Watts to add data to the discussion. I got 22W to work, but that's a single try by a single person. Watts would be a 'one setting fits all devices' solution. You eliminate wrong temps and don't need to mess with TCR. Would help people who own a modbox without TC or with poor a TC algorithm.

Teamleary, I was wondering how you were doing. Nice to hear back from you with good news! Oh I know that voice in the head all too well saying now is not the right time. But like Prop says I guess it makes sense to feel when the timing is better. 'Better' is good enough as 'right' never comes lol.

Propello, great post in the vape section! I think we can consider this tek solid now.

Aum_Shanti, great respect to you for thinking this tool up! Can't believe I didn't notice and ignored your initial posts when you first mentioned the idea. Glad you later posted about it again, gave some more info and that Prop created this topic.

Let's celebrate where we are with some quotes of people's e-mesh reactions:

I am not sure how you guys fit your spice on top of the vandy vape spool. It is too thin and I have dropped a ton everytime. Buying the fixed sheet the propello recommended is way better and makes it so much easier to load. My Voopoo drag 2 has an automatic SS preset choice which I am choosing so I do not have the choice to change my tcr but it does show the ohms and thats it. I have a temperature gun that I would highly recommend. You can get it on amazon for 12 bucks and you can see if your mod is putting out the right temp. It seems with the fixed sheet that I am putting on my voopoo it is giving me .14 ohms. With this I can see it glowing at 100 degrees celsius. This should not happen. I tested the gun on it and it said over 300 degrees celsius. I think this is because the voopoo drag 2 cannot read the thicker wire for this fixed mesh properly.

I pushed the mesh further down into the rda and screwed it in and the readings seem to be a little more accurate. I get the faint glow at 155 degrees celsius in the dark but the glow seems to be close to the sides where it is plugged in.

Matt
The legs will glow a bit brighter. Which max wattage do you have on your Voopoo?

The resistance sounds good

If you see the faint red glow, you can try it out. Should be correct.

Some one
Thanks for your work 👍

I think he uses 35W limit, right Matt? When the ohm is correct, does your modbox display the same temp as the temp gun?
Just give it a try like Prop says. And if you feel like it give Wattage mode a test like I mentioned in my previous post.

The VV spool is a bit narrow indeed, but can be used for testing purposes. Instead of loading 30mg at ones, you can load 10mg, melt in and repeat 2 more times. It works, but takes effort and care not to spill on the RDA. When you are happy with the device you should preferably either:

- buy a 100 mesh screen which you cut wider as per Propello tek, loading spice vertically
- buy a 100 mesh screen which you cut longer as per Aum_Shanti tek, loading spice horizontally and build a custom RDA top

Yea I have it set up 35 watts. Have not tried any dose with the fixed 100 micron mesh that I bought. The fixed mesh cut into Propello recommendations makes it so much easier to load. With the vandy vape spool 150 micron mesh I spilled half of my spice each time I loaded it and probly lost some in the process so I never knew the actual dose that landed on the mesh.I tried loading the spice on the 100 micron fixed mesh and did not spill a crumb. Now I can actually know the exact amount I am taking in.

By the way, I could not find Lindsays drip tip online. Some one I like your drip tip a lot. What is the name of your drip tip? I tried to look online and could not find it. My drip tip makes my set up look more sketchy like it is used for drugs and it is also hard to see vapor coming in even though it is clear. Right now I am using the transparent bent drip tip(comes up in google search as first pic)

810 drip tip:
https://articulo.mercadolibre.co...ble-entrada-tipo-810-_JM

I don’t live in that region so I can’t buy it Lindsay

The advantage of the VV mesh roll is that when you load around 100mg without scale, half will fall off and save your baked ass from hyperslap spanking


It's been a while, I can't remember where I bought mine. But.. The VV RDA has a 810 opening, but comes with a cross-over to narrow the opening to 510. Meaning you can either buy a 510 or 810 glass drip tip (search both). For example on ebay.

510 drip tip = 8.5mm in diameter
810 drip tip = 12.5mm in diameter

Let us know what temp your temp-gun measures your mesh to be at the correct ohm and if you ever try wattage mode.

Matt, use s dab tool, load some spice, melt, load some spice etc. One hand should always keep the mod stable on the table, while loading the spice with the other hand.
I also find it easy to load the spice with a folded piece of paper/carton. business cards with coateing are superb.

Touching the mesh is a disaster with spice bouncing everywhere, and you need to start all over scaling etc. As you say, the fitted e-mesh eliminates the loading troubles, but those who use the vandy vape mesh roll strips must be careful to avoid spice falling off the mesh surface.

Please always scale your dose. There is no going back with this method

Safe travels 🖖

Hi again!

After many experiments, I'd like to share my final setup.

Parts

Standard stuff:

1) a mod (I’m using Vaporesso Gen),
2) Wotofo Profile RDA (the bottom part),
3) VandyVape SS316L 150 mesh,

Innovation:

4) GlassCo ISO 29/32 joint tube (002.202.07) @ http://glasscolabs.com/p...-cone-unprinted-din-iso/
5) two O-rings (thickness: 1.5 mm, inner diameter: 18 mm - these are ideal - buy more!)

Optionally:

6) GlassCo 29/32->19/26 adapter (014.202.04) for a 19 mm water filter (there's also one for 14 mm available) @ http://glasscolabs.com/product/expansion-adapter/
7) a water filter/bubbler/whatnot

Setup

You need to drill a single Ø 5 mm hole, starting ↔ 10 mm from the tube edge (see the photo). This configuration works best, IMO.

Notes

I suggest buying a few more tubes, just in case, because glass is hard to drill in. I had it drilled by a local glazier for around $2.50. Be persistent, because at first my guy said it's impossible, but then was able to drill all 4 holes I commissioned just fine. This lab glass is probably sturdier than he expected.

Thanks to using glass, everything inside is visible to the sitter, so they know precisely when to take the device out of your hands. I prefer to set the temperature to 240°C (in TC mode), to have everything vaporized in a single 2-3 second toke.

The connection between glass and RDA using those bigger O-rings feels very tight, sturdy, it doesn't wobble at all. I was surprised, it's like a single piece.

Also, a fun quirk is that this particular hole configuration (Ø 5 mm, ↔ 10 mm) whistles audibly, hah.

Photos

Nice and impressive setup Steffen!
I like the idea with the glass tube.
Is it one hole for airflow there, or is it two?

I suppose you need to hold the mod/rda horizontal when loading and vaping, and that can be a problem without spilling crystals.
Have you tried it? Would be nice to see an image with spice loaded and melted.

I think you need a tube with a 90 degrees angle to hold the mesh and gear horizontal in the last image. A connected water bong can be a bit stress if you travel without a sitter. Easier to just put the mod / rda somewhere at lift off in my humble opinion.

Please let us know how it works out with your setup when you have tried it out. I'll order a tube myself and try it with my fitted mesh setup as in your first image, but with horizontal fitted mesh.

Blessings

Hi, Propello! =)

Thank you. <3 It wouldn't happen without your invaluable ideas!

It's just one hole. I tried drilling two holes in my first tube, but then the airflow was too big. It felt weird, I had to seal it. On the other hand, a single Ø 5 mm feels great. (Notice that you're constantly sucking the air out of that tube, so it goes up anyway - it does not hit the glass walls and crystallize, as my first intuition was.)

You need to hold it horizontally when loading - yes. I got that idea from previous posts here - I think from "some one"?

I have never used more than 30 mg so far, so I can melt the crystals into that long mesh (on TC @ 100°C - minimal setting on my device) in a rather thin layer. Then you can hold the vape however you want - even upside down as in that last picture with the water filter. It works, and doesn't spill the hot crystals. I think it's because the melted layer is quite thin - it vaporizes pretty much instantly.

My favorite way is to lay down under a blanket, and vaporize horizontally (or even slightly upside down), without water filtration.

Indeed, I would never use a bong/water filter without a sitter, hah! But even then, it's just distilled water on your bed, so maybe some people will find it plausible.

But sure, I'll post a picture with 25 mg melted into it for reference, in a few days - I used it today and have to integrate the experience first.

I'm sure horizontal mesh will work as well! I just wanted to have large surface area, so that it vapes instantly (30 mg in less than 3 seconds), and can be held upside down (for my water filter).

Blessings to you, too! <3

Thanks for the information Steffen. Very interesting.

Safe travels mate 👍

SO TRUE!

Thank you for your thoughts! What a great community we have here.

I just tried again tonight (felt like the right moment), I'm gonna post about it now!

Cheers Teamleary.

Steffen335, thats a really cool hack you did there I love the glass. You seem to be using a higher temp. Are you on the SS316 preset or manual TCR mode (if TCR, which value)? Is the smoke hot /harsh that you need the water extension, or can you inhale straight from the glass join tube without issue?
