    So I have a hands free vaporizer, the newer model with mineral heater.

    So last night, while i was bong vaping all by myself, i was already really high, i bong vaped like 1 or 2 bowls fine, and was definitively toasted of trainwreck. So I loaded a third, this one i remember packing sorta tight, and i placed it on there, took one hit, and i guess i was high and forgot it was sitting in front of me while i browse GC. I take a hit and it filled tooooo slow, almost like smoke, and indeed, smoke was coming out the vape. I am confused, this has only happended twice, did i put tooo much bud in this one time and it got to hot and combusted? Because the tube now tastes like shit, so does that glass.

    Right now I am about to clean the whip again... :/

    About to let rubbing alcohol sit in the tube for a while, and then rinse with salt and repeat, and boil it in some water over the stove. As for the glass parts those will be hand rinsed and washed with iso and salt.

    I usually just set it to 12 o clock and leave it some times.

    I've had it happen a few times, I called it "flash"...pulling slowly and suddenly have a weird taste and the whip is full of thick nasty tasting smoke...yuck!:eek:

    I clean it out and use less herb for the next session.

    Yes, I was doing small little inhales on the bong, what i think it is, is i put to much, didn't stir it, and i just let it shit on the vape and heat up the whole session.

    turn the temprature down, inhale a little faster, or change the screen if it's clogged

    I put my temp at 10-11. Never had that problem and I can still get big rips off of mine without setting it to anything above 12.

    Happy vaping. :wave:

    i agrree with tazed. only happened to me when i first got the unit and was turning it too high. 10-11 is where you want it. start off hitting faster.

    This happened to me once using my buddha in a dorm room.

    My only conclusion was that a power fluctuation caused the temp to spike, combusting the herb.

    Usually I keep the bowl on the vape the whole time, never really removing it. Should i remove it inbetween hits?

    It's either that you set the temp too high or you pulled too slwly, OR a combination of both.

    no you dont have to remove it in between hits, thats the whole point of the hands free....just keep the temo around 12 ish and find the draw speed your comfortable with and you shouldnt have problems
