I use coconut oil instead of butter but I'm 99% sure I hit the max saturation point. I used about 1.5 ounces of flower/AVB in 1/3 cup of oil and it wasn't super strong like I had expected

they solved the problem where cords have a lovely shape but now cords that seem the same may not be, so usb c has been kind of a wash

cable and unit works right, it has something to do with the combination of USB solutions the (tablet? iirc) charger & cable vs the FE unit decided to implement, probably CC pins being wired weirdly but idk. Less to do with these specific units and more just bellyaching about the sad state of affairs in USB atm.

Got excited last night and made some straws...? So far seems like a nice unit, can probably do something cool for a mouthpiece as long as it terminated in a ~12mm tube.

usb c is a nightmare because it's just the shape of the port. a "usb c" shaped cable can be:

- charge-only
- usb 2.0
- usb 3.0
- usb 3.1
- thunderbolt 3
- probably more?

with varying levels of compatibility depending on the device they're being plugged into and the quality of the cable itself

I usually just buy Anker type-c charge cables (which are usually USB 2.0) as they tend to work with every device I've tried them on and they're inexpensive

Anker makes some seriously good USB poo poo that feels (and is priced) dirt cheap, but goddamn does it ever loving work.

if you buy anything from them that’s >$20 though it’s as good as it comes. I got a 20-port USB hub and I swear I could beat someone to death with it and it’d still work fine.

it’s a weird dichotomy they have in their lineup.

yeah for a device that costs ~$200 and is virtually just a ceramic rod heater with a screen over it surrounded by a little hunk of wood, you'd think they'd spring for a slightly thicker power cord. they do sell a fancier cord like this:



..but it costs loving $40 and the cord itself is probably the same flimsy bullshit as the stock one... i'm assuming they just re-house the standard cord's guts in a piece of wood and use a guitar volume knob instead of a generic dial.

though honestly if you're even remotely handy you can probably just make your own replacement with any standard non-polarized C7 power cord, just splice the new cable onto the old dial. looks like the dial just comes apart w/2 screws.

e - yeah after researching it's clear this is just a standard 150 watt lamp dimmer switch with a C7 plug at the end instead of a light bulb socket. at least now i know if my cord ever shits out i can just make my own out of better components.

you can run the same oil you've made with multiple batches of ABV and save all the cannabinoids up in it. it's the only way to make it "not weak"

Yeah, I considered doing so, but I'm not sure that I trust my skills when it comes to AC power that's going to be a) frequently stressed and b) near me while inebriated. I think I'll pick up a bubble stem and a cord and treat it as a lil' paraphernalia treat. (probably get the boring black one again because the boxed version noticeably does not show the end connector)

I never thought to do this because I figured the fat was already completely saturated by THC - like if I put the same amount of shake/AVB into a full cup of oil it felt "stronger" but maybe I just hosed up that tiny batch

Kinda tempted to try 2 ounces of shake + AVB in a full cup next time

there is distressingly little hard science out there on the saturation of fats with THC and CBD but anecdotally I’ll back the “as long as you store and handle it properly you can continue to infuse your fats using ABV at least one or two more times.”

I just literally finished making 40g of ABV into a little more than half a cup of usable, strained butter, had it in the water bath for almost 20 hours, and despite having done this repeatedly I can’t tell you if I get more saturation from a longer infusion, a smaller ratio of ABV:butter, or a combination of the two because there’s nothing truly concrete out there yet.
