    don't forget a couple thousand feet of extension cord so you can carry it around with you outside on a cloudy day

    Oh, I get it. You're trolling us for some reason....?

    that youtube video you link to is sweet! I used a hakko like device before and it seemed fine. I think everyone just has their own preferences. they are all good methods in my opinion, each with their +'s and -'s. Happy Labor Day weekend?

    Oh god...you didn't take the metal off? I hope..for your own sake...you're trolling. But some people really are like this...

    I could be wrong, but would a Hakko even work AT ALL to ignite a bowl if the metal soldering tip assembly were left in place? I'm not going to experiment, but....

    Yeah, I think Friendly was being sarcastic.

    It would I think, would still get hot, but yeah please don't experiment =p lead is no bueno.

    Inert ceramic on the other hand is virtually identical to using a glass rod.

    I hope NOBODY is using a Soldering Iron to light their bowls. It might have residual lead and tin on the tip. Even new irons are pre-tinned with solder at the factory. Not good to get metal poisoning.

    Oh come on. You aren't serious are you? When people say soldering iron, its assumed they've removed the metal tip. That's ridiculously obvious. Its just inert ceramic after that. No residual lead, no residual tin. The almighty and all expensive herb iron is literally just this. Get a hakko and don't freak.

    I ordered some Humboldt hempwick last week. Can't wait to try it out, everyone says it's the shit. Butane tastes like crapstains.

    You're tired of yourself? :confused: I dono if I have a good solution to that.

    my favorite part about hemp wick is that it isn't nasty like a hakko aka soldering iron. I know people that use hakkos- to solder with! hahaha

    Congrats! I know people that solder too. I'm also intelligent enough to know they solder with metal ;), not ceramic.

    Also, the soot is a bit nasty. I don't have any of that :wave:. Using a hakko is like cherrying the whole bowl, its as if you didn't start lighting it at all

    While I LOVE the taste of classic combustion with hempwick, I definitely say you can taste your herb much more supremely with a hakko/herb iron. And yeah a Hakko is 100% safe to use as long as you A)take off the metal soldering tip and B)Let all factory oils burn off the inert ceramic heating element before use. Follow those steps and youre set!
     
  18. #58 ddog7x, Oct 20, 2012

    do you understand that the metal tip is not used, but rather the clean, inert ceramic heating element within? that there is no metal anywhere near the weed?

    i assume you do and are just trolling.

    He's trolling. It's been explained enough times for him to know better.
