I need to pick up a new ashcatcher in the upcoming week(my roor one broke), and now comes the question, which style do you prefer? im really trying to decide between a multiple arm downstem(like a treetop perc), or an inline style one? What would be the benefit to either one? Or, would i be better off just sticking with a regular single downstem ashcatcher? hopefully this makes sense, ate an edible earlier and just finished smoking a bowl of chemdawg thanks in advance!! -brian
I would go with either a showerhead or inline. I'm just not a big fan of tree-style ash catchers. How much are you looking to spend?
completely forgot about showerhead ashcatchers, haha was looking to keep under $150(cheaper the better too, im just looking for clear glass, nothing worked) how do inlines and showerheads hit? never hit either style
I went with a Kind Creations inline AC for 150. You can get the mouth piece to turn it into a bubbler for another 20 as well. The thing is quality and milks up really nice. Also looks cool to so that doesnt hurt the cause =)
I can pretty much guarantee you'll be satisfied with a nice inline, preferably a nice ssfg, you wont regret it.
http://forum.grasscity.com/toking-tools/605474-fresh-delta-nine-custom-inline-ash-catcher.html Thats my jaunt... custom INLINE with showerhead diffuser... i think that thing hits so smooth... so to answer your question, thats what I would do. You wont regret it
thanks guys, im gonna look into the ssfg inlines after i check out some local shops to see what they have first its gonna be going on a 16" royalty 8 arm perc tube
inlines have a lot more diffusion. will probably add some drag but if your tube already rips you shouldnt have a problem. next would be disc. trees are great and all but cant deny that inlines and trees have more percs..and in the end thats what you should be getting along with quality
SSFG inline for sure, i hit one last weekend and i'm definitely getting one to compliment my SB. PS, @Romain, getting rid of the everest already?
check your rep Showerheads/circs are the best but I think they depend on how the A/C will be angled in order for them to diffuse optimally. Inlines do not matter regarding the angle although the long stem with slits varying in distance does not diffuse perfectly either. Both are good but it kind of depends on what you're rocking for a tube, although the differences are minimal in terms of being smooth are minimal. Both require a lot of maintenance in order to keep the small diffuser holes clean so don't function the best for an ash catcher but its mostly personal preference
yeah carbon filters are good for smaller tubes or ones that have more than enough diffusion as it is. theyre usually a lot cheaper too. im getting a tube with a fixed circ downstem so a showerhead AC seems kind of excessive to me, so I actually am thinking about a standard carbon filter as well
