searching “510 soldering iron” on Amazon brings up a bunch of generic vape batteries with pointy tips screwed on.

that has to be a way to list a banned product, because there’s no way it works for soldering

Are there any reviews from anyone who thought they were getting a soldering device?

Sure, it's a way to get around vape ban. Just like "510 flashlight" though those were around years and years ago.

It's theoretically possible to solder with one. The lovely iron I had as a kid was maybe 15 watts? 40-60 watts is typical for a good iron and that's well within single 18650 ecig range.

These aren’t 18650 size. Just junk stick batteries. Most of the reviews are *wink wink* about it https://a.co/d/iu5chOq

Lots of these pipe-style ones. It’s weird that Amazon want to bundle it with a tub of rosin, since none of these reviewers are soldering https://a.co/d/6AbPu85

I've used lab condensers in DIY bongs in the past, and using warmed pure alcohol, I was able to get them spotless with very little effort:

I added the second condenser. There's over 1m of narrow twisty glass pathyway in there, which will be water cooled from an ice bucket when the pump arrives tomorrow. It'll produce the coolest vapour imaginable, allowing me to take even milkier hits. The ice water cooling may be too much, but I won't know until I try.

As for price, it's a really cheap setup. The condensers are £8 each, the stand £7, the globe bong £15... in fact, the most expensive part is the sneaky pete sidewinder stem (£22) that gave me the inspiration to look into lab condensers.

Is it safe for my old man with cirrhosis to take a few hits off a THCO pen? I ask because I know it’s metabolized by the liver and also because I know you are all, down to the last, certified physicians.

Scrotum Modem

your liver ain't gonna metabolize it if you vape it into your lungs which goes directly into your bloodstream

e: article from a weed seed website, apparently reviewed by a legit MD https://sensiseeds.com/en/blog/cannabis-cirrhosis-of-the-liver-can-cannabis-cause-liver-damage/ (archive.org link if the site isn't responding)

This has more to do with studies regarding the effects of THC and CBD on a dying liver via its CB1 and CB2 receptors in the central nervous system which is accessed via bloodstream. Read for yourself but in a nutshell it's not conclusive that him putting those drugs in his bloodstream will shorten the life of his liver even more. I'd be more interested in what prescribed drugs he's using for his liver, if any, and how his weed compound of choice will interact with it.

Honestly I'd have more trust in the risks of him vaping CBD or delta 9 THC - starting in small amounts of course - over something like THC-O. I'm reading some people get a shroom-like hallucinatory headspace from THC-O and prefer plain THC to it, but I've never tried it myself.

lol how bout 1/4 of a hit for a start. this is no different than a normal weed vape cart in concentration and THC-O supposedly giving you a more psychedelic-like high that's stronger than regular THC? come on now. unless he's already a heavy stoner already

that would make me guess there's something wrong with the vaporization on the 510 pen rather than your body imo - you're getting visible vapor when hitting the pen yeah? might be worth giving the battery a quick recharge just to make sure it's actually got power stored (2 weeks without usage might've gotten it into a state where it's not really vaporizing anything if it was near dead iirc?) and that should force you to reset the cartridge connection too

anyways not sure what's going on but the big chain dispensary seems to have a long running bogo sale on vape carts; weirdly enough they're being very explicit on it being bogo not 50% off but I guess I shouldn't complain. wonder if their suppliers somehow got access to some of the overstock weed from the PNW to make into secondary products as a workaround, that'd be funny if so. shame they're owned by an ex-cop

I want to buy another ash catcher so when I go to smoke and notice how dirty it is I have one to swap in while I clean the other one instead of just going 'I'll clean it tomorrow' and forgetting.

I can get what I already have, which works fine, but... anyone have any suggestions for any unique or cool ash catchers? 18mm.

I thought the -O designation meant it was synthesized from chemicals and bath salts or someshit. Which was banned from the farm bill recently.

Well, I got it, and he seems to like it. He’s obsessively reading medical journals about cannabinoid hepatotoxicity (he’s an MD) right now. He also told me it was schedule one right when you did and we both did exasperated Larry David faces.
