Discussion in 'Portable Vaporizers' started by magicflight, May 16, 2009.
i must say the PA 2.0 is really amazing. going to order a herbal blend and whip soon. cant wait
So I've been kinda babying the box with these new batteries and not drawing for longer than say 7 seconds. Can I still take those nice 20 second draws like I used to with the old batteries?
Only one way that I know of to find out. Take a rip and count to twenty and let us know how it goes! Drawspeed is key, of course.
I just bought the Power Adapter 2.0. I'm excited to see how this will change how I vape with the MFLB and how I extract the goodies from the herb.
I received the new glyph batteries yesterday and after multiple tests i am truly amazed by the improvement with everything from charging time to output. I have been using the original batteries that where paired with my first mflb years ago. I am now curious with the new power adaptor but the portability and power these new batteries have I don't think i would utilize the PA 2.0 if purchased. Anyone who owns a MFLB needs the Glyph Batteries.
I now am using BOTH Power adapters, and find that they work identically.
The only difference I can discern is visual.. new slimmer lines.
(and the battery surrogate fits more snuggly)
Any1 know which batteries come with the Launch Box stock, if I just ordered from puffitup? Is it the new good ones or...
That would depend on how old the stock is it at PIU. Randy does a brisk volume I think, I suspect they're the new version. Why not ask him if you want to know?
I agree about the glyph batteries, but I think you underestimate the value of the PA. The benefit of a PA is the ability to set it at your sweet spot. If you use your LB in a fixed location, such as at your desk as I did for a long time, then the PA makes life much simpler. I set the power at about 40%, which meant I never had to worry about combustion and I was getting tasty low temperature vapour, the kind I like most. I resisted getting a PA for quite a while after they were released, and wound up kicking myself in the ass for not getting one sooner. Don't make the same mistake.
Hello friends,
I have a question about AVB. I usually vape until black, not on purpose but the glyphs darken my load at about the 6-7th draw.
Yesterday I ate 1.5G of it at work in a smoothie and felt absolutely nothing...what a waste carrying it around.
So I realized that I'm not even conserving that much with ABV - for every 2G I have a possibility of getting stoned on abv...lol.
Just throwing abv into a smoothie and not processing it or anything is probably one of the least effective ways you could use your abv. Don't get me wrong, it'll work as the bud is already decarbed from the vape, but its gonna take alot more to feel anything. You should try actually cooking with it, make some brownies or some cannacaps or something... at the very least, even firecreackers will probably work better then just throwing some abv into a smoothie
If youre interested, heres a recepie for some cannacaps that i plan on trying as soon as i have a decent amount of abv: http://imgur.com/a/56oIN
Nice recipe dude ,
I've never thought of making gelatin canna-caps .
But I would like to try it with top shelf buds tho , and not with ABV .
So I'm guessing the formula will differ a little , with pure buds .
Any thoughts on the % formula 420JG ?
Thanks for the advice, and for the great recipe! The cannacups look fantastic.
While the newer batteries seem to provide a faster heat up... the old batteries are no slouches and are not inferior.
Many users had their batteries for many months, and bit by bit the batteries degrade.
They then bought Glyph batteries and found them a large improvement.
I feel that had they bought new "older" type batteries that also would have been a large improvement.
I keep ample sets of new batteries on hand, to share with the community.
I have used both sets of new batteries extensively, and while the new ones are improved... they were not enough different to make it matter to me personally, which I used.
This is irrelevant, as one day they will all be new type...
BUT when local patients saw that I had new type batteries, and looked envious,
I freely traded them for the "older" type"... which still work great.
I disagree.
I save all ABV from MFLB and have for years... and use it many ways.
Vito's ABV notes
I make Iso reductions... Everclear reductions (edible)
I make flour and bake with it.....
AND I pour it down my gullet straight... or in smoothies.
ABV is already carbolated (at around 375º) and is "ready to go".
~No processing required... unless so desired~
I throw a spoonful in instant oatmeal too.
I've also had great and predictable highs eating ABV raw, a la "toss and wash" as well as mixed into some peanut butter/yogurt/etc. If you ate it and felt nothing, then either you vaped the load thoroughly and there are no more active cannabinoids left in the material, or your tolerance is higher than what you ate. Maybe both.
How would one distinguish when there are no more cannabinoids in it?
I mean, going past light brown is so tempting . I'm at light brown after the 4th hit, but I take it with me for the day with no extra trenches so OF COURSE I'm baseline by the afternoon and take 4 more draws to get flighty again (8 hits in total until blackish herb). This unequivocally renders ABV useless in my situation - my tolerance is very low.
Aztec Deity, when would you stop vaping when using the glyphs? Is there a sweet spot wherein you can vape *almost* all the cannabinoids and terpenoids while still leaving enough *bang* for edible greenery?
Keep your AVB light brown /dark tan if you want to keep and use it . I take mine to dark chocolate brown and get everything out in Vapor .
I'm not saying that it'd be totally ineffective, I've heard of people eating abv raw and having great effects. But I would assume that because THC is fat soluble you'd have better results if you were to actually cool your abv into some kind of fat... Whether that be coconut oil or whatever. People decarb fresh bud as well but usually they will cook it into something instead of just eating it raw (though I'm sure it'd still work if you did). If I didn't have access to tools and equipment to cook with I wouldn't mind eating abv straight, but if you have access to even the most basic kitchen I don't see why you wouldn't. Plus, I couldn't even imagine how awful the texture of raw abv must be.
I would think you'd still follow the same basic recipie. This isn't my recipie, but when I asked the guy who made this write up told me to use 45 ml of oil to every quarter of bud. Also, if anyone knows how the hell I could convert 45 ml into some kind of American measurement it'd be great... Lol
mod note: Please avoid back-to-back posts, use Edit instead. Two posts merged.
It's 1.5 flOz if that helps
The Googles are your friends.
I'm actually at this crossroad myself right now. Vaped a quarter down into a few grams (if that), and I'm not sure what I want to do with it. It's pretty well vaped, I'd say, so I would have to eat probably all of it if I wanted to feel something.
How thoroughly I vape it depends on what I want out of the current situation: do I want to vape off some THC and the terpenes and other low-temp cannabinoids and save more of the cannabinoid content for edibles/revaping, or do I need to get as many cannabinoids in me as possible right now? I've saved some stuff that I'll "half-vape" (subjective, my half-done is different than yours), and save for edibles later, and achieved a nice high. I don't know how much experience with ABV you have, but the high is a bit different compared to regular edibles. It's more sedating and hypnotic, and to me it's a pretty "empty" high with no real head change although it's quite effective for sleeping, pain, nausea, etc. All the stuff CBD is good for since it has a higher vape temp.
I appreciate this response Vitolo helped me out a lot=)
Let me know, I'm hesitant to spend the money because I don't know if you can set it to a particular temperature and know what that temperature is, or just
Personally, I feel like letting it go to black kills some of the cannabinoids and I don't like the taste. I tried using the sip method, but that technique made me cough up a nard. No idea why, so what I do now is hold my tongue against the end of the glass draw pipe. Then, when I inhale I can feel the heat coming from the box. It's basically the sip method slightly modified. After using the "tongue sip" method for a few loads I have a really good feel for vape temps, only bad thing is that I can't know the temp for sure. There is a time/temp. chart in the MFLB manual, but unless you use the same battery they did, the heating times can be longer or shorter than the chart says, but it's a great guide. I actually need to call them and ask a few q's. ANYWHOOOO... To ensure getting the most cannabinoids I can, I only hold the battery in for about 3-4 seconds. I do this for 3-4 vapes to try get the cannabinoids that have a lower boiling/vaporizing temperature. Check out this chart for cannabinoid boiling/vaporizing temperatures. This also heats up and dries out the load a bit. Then I vape at the higher temperature for the remainder of the load.
As far as the ABV is concerned, I used to re-vape like MFLB suggests, but it gets too dark and nasty. After many experiments with ABV, I've found that I need 2g's to really get the effect I want.
For faster absorption, I crush the ABV again to almost a powder, then simmer it in melted butter for a minute or two. Then I add pasta sauce and simmer for about 15 mins. I really enjoy the flavor of the sauce. You can add 1/4 Cup of H2O in the sauce to keep it from getting thicker, if that's what you prefer. Sometimes the effect kicks in, in as little as 40-50 mins., but only if my stomach is empty and I drink a lot of water. Water helps digestion and absorption, as does the empty stomach.
For slower absorption, I simmer the ABV in butter for a minute or two, just like before, then add a few eggs and scramble. I think absorption is slower because it takes your body longer to breakdown the egg around the ABV. That's my guess anyway. The effect usually hits me in 1.5 - 2 hours.
One last suggestion is to season moderately as this helps mask some of the ABV flavah. For both recipes I season with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning (or basil and oregano), pepper and [salt (eggs only)]. Season to your own taste. Season lightly at first, then taste,then make small additions. You can always add more seasoning but you can't take it out.
Both recipes can be taken out and about in a tupperware container.
A few nights ago I decided to take my (well-vaped) ABV and poured it inside of half of an Ensure drink, shook for a bit, and finished it in a couple of gulps. Effects came on around 1hr, noticeable dry mouth at 1.5hrs, and I don't remember what happened after because I just fell asleep. That's about as easy as I can get it down.
I've been using a bootleg bubbler made out of a juice bottle to revape light brown
ABV until it looks like chocolate, light chocolate.
I use a PA at 3/4 max and stand guard for any combustion.
The bubbler kills any heat,. so I really had to experiment to come
up with the right temps and right bubbles.
This is how I roll when the meds. get scarce.
This is also why I lightly vape my herb when I can.

Hardware will never be more valuable than on the day it hits your loading dock. Each day new servers are not deployed to production the business is losing money. While Moore's Law is typically cited to explain the exponential density growth of chips, a critical consequence of this is rapid depreciation of servers. The hardware for clustered systems (e.g., Hadoop, OpenStack) tends to be significant capital expenses. In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Mason Katz, CTO and co-founder of StackIQ, to discuss how infrastructure teams should be aware of the capitalization and depreciation model of these expenses to fully understand when and where automation is critical.

Most of today's hardware manufacturers are building servers with at least one SATA Port, but not every systems engineer utilizes them. This is considered a loss in the game of maximizing potential storage space in a fixed unit. The SATADOM Series was created by Innodisk as a high-performance, small form factor boot drive with low power consumption to be plugged into the unused SATA port on your server board as an alternative to hard drive or USB boot-up. Built for 1U systems, this powerful device is smaller than a one dollar coin, and frees up otherwise dead space on your motherboard. To meet the requirements of tomorrow's cloud hardware, Innodisk invested internal R&D resources to develop our SATA III series of products. The SATA III SATADOM boasts 500/180MBs R/W Speeds respectively, or double R/W Speed of SATA II products.

Enterprises require the performance, agility and on-demand access of the public cloud, and the management, security and compatibility of the private cloud. The solution? In his session at 15th Cloud Expo, Simone Brunozzi, VP and Chief Technologist(global role) for VMware, will explore how to unlock the power of the hybrid cloud and the steps to get there. He'll discuss the challenges that conventional approaches to both public and private cloud computing, and outline the tough decisions that must be made to accelerate the journey to the hybrid cloud. As part of the transition, an Infrastructure-as-a-Service model will enable enterprise IT to build services beyond their data center while owning what gets moved, when to move it, and for how long. IT can then move forward on what matters most to the organization that it supports – availability, agility and efficiency.

A warning would be that it is a relatively long way from the centre, definitely not walking as it is a long boring stretch along a main road.

Dragon Tiger Tower
Built in 1976, Dragon Tiger Tower consists of two pagodas, the Dragon and the Tiger.Both pagodas are seven-story high, symbolizing the meaning of the seven-leveled stupa in Buddhism.Each level of the pagodas features twelve angles, yellow walls, red pillars and orange roof tiles.As the sun shines, the image of the pagodas in saturated colors reflects on the pond.The reflection has always attracted visitors to stop and take photos.

Asia is the biggest continent on Earth, a darling little gem floating around in space.
Hm, what is Asia? Who's in on it?
China and India are safe bets for Asian nations. Korea, Japan, Thailand, you're fine.
Europe? No. Europe would sort of be on the "Asian continent" if not for those pesky Ural mountains dividing things up in the middle, and then also the whole lineage of kings and wealth and nations and the EU and all that "give me my respect" stuff.
Russia would probably be happiest as its own continent, so for now we'll leave it in "Eurasia" and just hope the natural gas supplies keep flowing.
Pakistan and Afghanistan are dang close to Asia, but politically they show up in "Middle East" news stories an awful lot. Verdict: Eurasia.
I guess we'll actually have to consider everything from Turkey on eastward to be "Eurasian", although the moniker seems overlappitory of the territory.
The Asian economy is now officially raging like a wild furnace of lava that consumes everything in its path. Japan has had the largest individual economy in Asia for decades, but it is forecast that both India and China will outstrip Japan within twenty years.
China is the largest holder of United States debt and is positioned to become the world's next superpower, provided that Godzilla doesn't return and decide to stomp everybody back into the Shang Dynasty.

I was in 1st grade and soooooo excited. I tried to catch the flurries but they melted before they got to me:( It was a very cool thing to see in Belle Glade, Florida.
Love, from a Flroida native.
I was at John F.Kennedy Jr. High I remember when we had the snow (Flurry). I agree with JBW929 because I remember being in class and we looked out the window and saw the snow on the grass and they sent us home early.
I was 18 and running around with short sleeves. Certainly did not seem as cold to me then as it does now! I live in West Boynton...the birds could skate on the bird bath this morning...
I was 15 at the time (a student at LWHS), and I recall my Mom waking me and my sister. I was so excited at my first snow that I (1) nearly rolled over 2 kittens sleeping with me while getting out of bed and (2) ran outside in my babydoll PJs forgetting my robe. LOL!!! I was so excited that I really did not notice the cold.
YES! I remember the day well; it was my first time seeing snow.
At the time, I was a junior at Atlantic H.S. and had mid-term exams that morning. Our teacher, knowing many of us were Florida born, encouraged us to enjoy the snow while it last and gave everyone a B for our exam grade.
I was a student at Melaleuca Elementary, 3rd grade, when this happened. Being 41 now and never having seen snow except for this I was hoping to see some flakes again with this cold spell.
I was at twin lakes H.S. 9th grade. I was attempting to be a bad ass and wore a t shirt. I ended up being a froze ass. I had moved from NY year before (Roosevlt middle school) I thought I could handle it. I stayed at school all day in t shirt anyway. everybody was freaking out but it was a very light snow flurry with very little sticking to ground.
I was also a 7th grader at Conniston on this day. I remember the school was SO cold and by the time we got out of first period, it had stopped. School was cancelled for the following day.
I remember that there was a small bit of snow on my surfboard which was upside down in the side yard,, recall that there were a few flakes on the wipers of my car on the way to Palm Beach Jr. College.. people still think this was a dream.. Thanks for reminding!
I was in Jr. High school-Conniston. I remember the day well....my mom woke me and my sister with "It's snowing"! We ran outside and sure enough-the flurries had accumulated on the grass. It was so neat. Schools were closed for two days, and it was really "cool"-no pun intended!
I have this same clipping saved..........I remember it very well, I was in High School then.....thanks for the reminder.

Quentin Tarantino has a penchant for dropping hints about prequels to his well-known films that somehow never quite happen. We have been led to believe that more Kill Bill movies might be on their way, as well as a feature focused on the early years of the Vega brothers, played so memorably by John Travolta and Michael Madsen in Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs respectively.
- Inglourious Basterds
- Production year: 2009
- Countries: Germany, USA
- Cert (UK): 18
- Runtime: 152 mins
- Directors: Quentin Tarantino
- Cast: Brad Pitt, Christian Berkel, Christoph Waltz, Cloris Leachman, Daniel Bruhl, Diane Kruger, Eli Roth, Maggie Cheung, Melanie Laurent, Michael Fassbender, Mike Myers, Samuel L Jackson, Til Schweiger
Now it seems Tarantino has one eye on a prequel to Inglourious Basterds, his forthcoming wartime romp starring Brad Pitt, Eli Roth and Diane Kruger. And this time he's got the backing of longtime producer Harvey Weinstein.
"Brad wants to do Inglourious II. We all want to do it. And the movie hasn't even come out yet!" the movie mogul told GQ magazine. "But unfortunately I cannot give away the plot."
Weinstein reports that Tarantino has so much material mapped out for the Inglourious Basterds universe that there was talk at one point of making a Band of Brothers style TV series.
"We could do two movies, three movies. I was begging for the movies, but Quentin wanted to do the TV series, Bob [Weinstein, Harvey's partner in The Weinstein Company] wanted to do the TV series, so it was like two against one, you know?
"And I was getting outvoted all over the place, so I just figured, All right, forget it, I'm not gonna be a loser, I'll jump to the winning side. And then Quentin turns it into one movie. Go figure."
Whether a prequel to Inglourious Basterds ever sees the light of day will be largely dependent on the movie's box-office performance when it arrives in cinemas on 21 August. The film has so far had a mixed reception from the critics after competing for the Palme d'Or at Cannes. The Guardian's Peter Bradshaw called it "achtung-achtung-ach-mein-Gott atrocious".
He continued: "It isn't funny; it isn't exciting; it isn't a realistic war movie, yet neither is it an entertaining genre spoof or a clever counterfactual wartime yarn. It isn't emotionally involving or deliciously ironic or a brilliant tissue of trash-pop references. Nothing like that.
"Brad Pitt gives the worst performance of his life, with a permanent smirk as if he's had the left side of his jaw injected with cement, and which he must uncomfortably maintain for long scenes on camera without dialogue."

VO Financial Continues to Help Consumers VO Financial provides relief to agonizing regret.
EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, N.J., Sept. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Service provided by the VOFC: Debt Reduction/Inspired Vacations
Client: Mr. and Mrs. McRostie from Colorado 2012
"After agonizing with regret for our purchase of vacation "investment", which over time has been a progressive burden to us, we are so relieved to know there are a few honest people who still exist! The sweet talk of salespersons which pushed their agenda by deception and manipulation and by persistently ignoring their clients' efforts to decline upgrades and the increasing maintenance fees left us with debt we struggled to resolve.
Adding insult to injury, we also lost money and trust of groups who promised to help sell or rent our timeshare, to no avail. Having been burned several times, we were reticent to try one more time when we came into contact with VO Financial. You have been an answer to our prayers! Using your website to tell-it-like-it-is in exposing timeshare fraud helped convince us of your integrity.
How thankful we are to you, VO Financial, for your integrity, gentle spirit and mission focus of guiding us to see light at the end of the tunnel and find resolution in our desperation. You have stuck with us every step of the journey. Your assurance to us that the process would be done correctly will not be forgotten. We are grateful and relieved at the outcome. We cannot express adequately our appreciation of the quality of your Cape Cod and VO Financial personnel."
A personal word to the President and CEO of VO Financial:
We wish to take this opportunity to express our sincere thanks for the contact and help that Jake Laurie has been to us since late January this year. He has been consistent and reassuring in our phone conversations and guidance in the process of disengaging with our developer. Thank you, too, for being a firm that has shown integrity in exposing the deception in the timeshare vacation business on your website. And we are so grateful to have been offered a legal way out of debt. Jake has been a great consultant for us as he has walked us through the whole process and we now have in hand a letter from our developer confirming that our contract number has been cancelled and their collections activity has stopped.
We consider our contact with VO Financial to have been a God-send. Our best wishes for your continued aid to many hurting, well-intended people.
Thank You again

* Price shown: 05 Dec 2014 - IGV
Step back in time for Christmas
Don't miss this unique opportunity to experience the Christmas of a bygone era, at Blists Hill Victorian Town. Enjoy the celebrations, find perfect presents, and spend an afternoon at Birmingham's Frankfurt Christmas Market on a pre-Christmas break you'll remember for years to come.
Single rooms are available for a supplement
We leave the local area by coach this morning and travel to Birmingham, where we should arrive by early afternoon. The rest of the day is free for you to enjoy at your leisure.
Birmingham's Frankfurt Christmas Market is one of the largest outside Germany and features traditional wooden chalet-style stalls offering ceramics, candles, glasswork, jewellery and Christmas decorations, as well as traditional German items such as wooden toys, nativity scenes and marionettes.
Enjoy an early dinner before we re-board the coach and continue to our overnight hotel for a good night's sleep.
Following an English breakfast we will leave the hotel for a short visit to the Ironbridge Gorge, for the memorable sight of the famous 196-foot long bridge spanning the spectacular Severn Gorge. Afterwards, we head to Blists Hill - the award-winning recreated Victorian town where history really does come to life.
Experience festive celebrations from the 1800s as knowledgeable, costumed staff give you a fascinating insight into Victorian life. See the townsfolk prepare seasonal decorations and traditional presents. Browse the small seasonal market for unique crafts, gifts and local produce, as the sound of carol singers and brass bands fills the air.
Leaving in the early to mid afternoon, we should arrive back in the local area by mid to late evening depending on the traffic and distance to be travelled.
We recommend that you wear comfortable walking shoes, especially in the event of inclement weather. The Blists Hill Victorian Town site covers some 52 acres and is mainly outdoors.
Your Tour Manager will have allocated seats for you on the main coach in advance, taking into consideration any special requests wherever possible, and will advise you where to sit as you board the coach. This will be your seat for the duration of the tour. (Seats are not allocated on any connecting services to and from the main coach).
Your final travel documents, including the exact time and place of departure, will be sent to you approximately 10 days prior to departure, providing all payments have been made. We are unable to give exact departure times before this.
Where meals are not included, your Tour Manager will ensure there are suitable stops made for you to purchase and enjoy lunch and/or dinner each day.
If you have notified us of any special requirements, please check that they have been noted and acknowledged. This is especially important with any dietary needs you may have.
The majority of our tours involve a certain amount of walking, including a short walk from the coach stop to the town, attraction or venue you're visiting. If you are bringing a wheelchair or electric scooter, please let us know as soon as possible so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
