Salutations Tom,
You have obvious good engineering skills and are pretty good at math. I can follow (I think) your designs, but I lack the physical dexterity to physically construct such devices...
It's only an
impression caused by my
writer style, the modding project itself requires ZERO diploma besides a 6th grade IMO, otherwise it would be too difficult and hence defeat my DiY invitations to Duplicate & Peer Review. In reality only few relatively basic tools, 1 saw-blade and a handful 3/64" (or even 1/32") titanium-treated drill bits were necessary, though i'd have much preferred water-jet/LASER machines controlled by CAD software... Please allow me to include a few more hints:
Anyway i'm quite ready to bet Egzoset's customized VaporGenie pipe as illustrated above would still work in practically anyone's hands, even if its functional principles shall partly remain a mystery. All it takes it to pre-heat its SiC Front Puck until a
dim-red incandescent dot appears, then as an option i can block the On-Top Core-PinHole with my right-hand thumb while "pumping" the older handle PH with my left-hand one... If not blocked then half of that Sphere's PH path works in "permanent" PH mode, in any case oxygenation of the path takes places at a grand total of 3 separate locations.
...
In retrospective that later On-Top Core-PinHole system helps to loosen up resistance to inhalation in presence of an Hybrid Core. Fresh Air directly injected near its output (right above its associate bowl) complements the internal Metal Disc shielding effect i would say, which contributes to delay bowl parasitic heating further more... Then the Heat Charge moves into that bowl only to exit with a broadband spectrum load of noble vaporized molecules which leave just as fast almost in absence of thermalization, while Fresh Air depletes my core to promote "conservation" as the risk of skin-burns gets reduced further by virtue of "Micro-Bursting" being dense &
brief.
Etc., etc.
Just out of curiosity, how little are you using in one hit/use?...
Long ago my initial estimations were around 2 ~ 3 tasty tokes followed by as many more neutral ones, out of a 125 mg bowl or so. The range of applications is huge but i'd say it costs around 20 ~ 30 mg per toke, which implies i can toke over 3 dozen times a day while 3 ~ 4 times every 3 ~ 4 hours should suffice to ride the tolerance barrier without ever requiring a "T-Break", never again!...
?
In addition, as we may have discussed "Harm Reduction" by promoting self-awareness in the past, i'm proud to demonstrate a full-blown transformation which is modest and yet still managed to stick to that early design criteria. In other words the on-demand nature of its consumption mode and ritual feels like a much closer emulation of my former smoker habit than slow-steady sipping from a balloon, for example... Except the red-hot tip doesn't contaminate its cannabic path with self-poisoning toxic combustion compounds as with cigarettes/"joints"; equally saving nearly half the goodies from destruction by fire as a bonus. Consequently it's easy and convenient to forget the pipe where it stands after a relatively quick session under morning sunrays (in opposition to mesmerizing paraphernalia)!
Have a most pleasant afternoon Tom! (y)
Good day, have fun!! ☮
