I found this article interesting, the only confirmed case so far in Canada was a 50 year old who only started vaping in the last 6 months and was vaping legal nicotine carts.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/vaping-related-illness-quebec-1.5299487

There's one other case in Canada so far that I can easily find, a teen a couple weeks ago likely related, but not yet confirmed.

I've rarely ever stirred my Fury Edge. Usually I just run a bowl till I stop getting vapor and its all evenly brown at that point all the way through without stirring so I've never bothered.

Seems like the vape mail/shipping ban is going to make it rough to get a vape in the US shortly without jumping through an assload of hoops. Get one while you can.

I run mine at 430f mostly lately. After 18 months of daily use or so I get about twelve 5 min cycles which means roughly six bowls for me. ymmv.

I only use at home so I just leave it plugged in when not in use.

I'm not an expert so I'd recommend people look up the specifics themselves but the basic gist is that all e-cigs/vapes are getting added into the existing rules regarding mailing cigarette and smokeless tabacco products. The USPS wont ship those, UPS and Fedex I believe have also said they intend to follow the USPS decisions. And the new rules appear to take effect end of March.

Here is an article that covers most of it in regards to vaping as of a couple days ago. https://vaping360.com/vape-news/108577/vape-shipping-and-the-pact-act-what-we-know-so-far/

The current rule is:

quote:

Except as provided in 472.2, all cigarettes (including roll-your-own tobacco) and smokeless tobacco are nonmailable and shall not be deposited in or carried through the Postal Service mailstream. Nonmailable cigarettes and smokeless tobacco deposited in the mail are subject to seizure and forfeiture. Any nonmailable cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products seized and forfeited shall be destroyed or retained by the federal government for the detection or prosecution of crimes or related investigations and then destroyed. Senders of nonmailable cigarettes and smokeless tobacco may be subject to seizure and forfeiture of assets, criminal fines, imprisonment, and civil penalties. The Postal Service will not accept for delivery or transmit any package that it knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, contains nonmailable cigarettes or smokeless tobacco. If the Postal Service reasonably suspects that a mailer is tendering nonmailable cigarettes or smokeless tobacco, then the mailer bears the burden of proof in establishing eligibility to mail. The Postal Service has reasonable cause not to accept for delivery or transmit a package based on:

A statement on a publicly available website, or an advertisement, by any person that the person will mail matter which is nonmailable under this section in return for payment; or
The fact that the mailer or other person on whose behalf a mailing is being made is on the U.S. Attorney General‘s List of Unregistered or Noncompliant Delivery Sellers.

There are some exceptions, but its generally lovely.

quote:

Online retailers will be required to:

Verify age of customers using a commercially available database
Use private shipping services that collect an adult signature at the point of delivery
Register with the ATF and the U.S. Attorney General
Register with state and local tax administrators in all states and localities where business is done
Collect and pay all applicable local and state taxes, and affix any required tax stamps to the products sold
Each month, a list of all transactions must be sent to each state’s tax administrator that includes the names and addresses of each customer sold to, the quantities and type of each product sold, and the name, address, and phone number of the person delivering the shipment to the recipient

Another great use of the Fury Edge dosing caps is making little mixed bowl sandwiches. I like to make them with shatter and kief.

Like so:
---------
Weed
Tiny Bit o' Shatter
Sprinkle of Kief
Weed
---------

Can do the same thing without the dosing caps for sure, but the caps make keeping everything clean a bit easier. If the caps get gooped up, you just drop them in a bit of iso and shake them up. Good to go.

Here in Canada it has pretty much shaken out to Flower, Concentrates, Edibles, and Topicals. Method of consumption seems to have become the default because if you just walk in and ask for some dank or whatever its not really enough info given the available options. Though really it just invites a few more questions about what exactly you are looking for.

Plus half the dispensaries now look like Apple stores and they are trying to maintain a certain level of professionalism because its important at this sort of early stage of rec legal to maintain that image to some extent.

Little stainless steel bowls basically. Yeah you fill them, drop one in, vape it, swap for the next one. Keeps it clean and works a bit better for keif/shatter flower stacks.

Empty the caps and drop them in iso. Makes cleanup a breeze at the cost of loading the caps being a bit finicky.

I made an electronically cooled bong.



I've managed to get it down to 7.6C using a single peltier modue. I'm adding a 2nd one that's twice as powerful on the weekend, and I'm going to try to aim for sub zero cooling.

I made this awhile ago.

Ultrasonic humidifier bong. Weed Vapor passed through a couple downstems connected by a perforated tube. Vape would pickup just a bit of nice cool ultrasonic water vapor. Was good for dry mouth and nice flavor.

And then I knocked it over one time and shattered it. Was fun while it lasted though.

Don't remember if it was this thread or the TCC one but I'll advise that if you add ultrasonic vapor it will probably make you cough until you get the ratio adjusted just right. I found that too much water vapor caused immediate coughing. Which is not really that odd, you're breathing in water, but still something to consider.

Was going to combine it with this thing I built https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KCZxWcBrHvBQlFKVkQCHuzNtuFEQeSX09vFU8ZxMvIY/ but then covid got worse, parts were backordered etc and never got back to it.

I've never seen anything conclusive. Anecdotally ice bongs have never given me a problem but I also don't use them all the time.

By the time it's in your mouth and throat I doubt it's still freezing anyway, just colder than it would be otherwise. Though with your setup it pretty far past the basic ice bong.

Either way inhaling anything too hot or too cold can cause damage so its something to keep in mind at least.

You probably don’t. Not if you enjoy flower, because that’s tough to enjoy when half a one-hitter may be too much.

Ever tried a dry herb vape? That's a nice use case for one if you want to try flower microdosing. It's very doable.
