    CFL reflector flood

    23w 5000K are available from my distibutor for $13.99 CAD (in stock, no minimum purchase requirement). They are the most efficient too! 26w 2700K for flowering are also available for about the same price from the local big-box store. Also, the T4 tubes inside have higher intensity than the T5...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    The biggest cost is the CD/DVD spindles, which is Memorex. I called Memorex and they won't sell me the empty spindles, so the cost will depend on whether you have a use for blank CDs/DVDs. The base unit uses one 50-pack and one 25-pack. Yes, this is a conspiracy to get stoners buying blank media.

    Filament Vaporizer!

    I finally put a friend's DVM (Digital Volt Meter) on the G3 unit, to measure both current and voltage, to determine the power in Watts. 2.12 V 1.82 A 3.86 W Less than four watts! And boy does it put out the vapor... this kind of power efficiency means you can breath COLD vapor, rather...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    Thanks for the feedback! If you want I can make a unit and send it by mail... they are fairly cheap to make (most of the cost is in buying the 25 and a 50 spindles of Memorex CDs/DVDs). But if you use CDs/DVDs then it would be quite cheap. Oh and I wish you were my neighbor, my real ones are...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    Spindle Vaporizer [G3] Codename: Harmony Yesterday I completed the third-generation filament vaporizer device! It was tested last night and works like a charm, much cleaner than G2... I feel so fortunate to have had the opportunity to make this unit. Below is my...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    The underside is the most revealing. Note the following in the pic below: 1. Black zap-straps holding down the dual D-cell holders 2. Blue single-strand ethernet wire holding down the four sockets 3. White socket-wire travelling through holes from inside of unit to switch on outer rim. The...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    Parts List Note that two items are not used: electrical tape (made of PVC plastic, off-gasses terrible, PVC is highly toxic when overheated (vinyl chloride) and solder. These systems should not use such highly toxic metals (even lead-free solder contains toxic low-melting heavy metals)...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    Finally, the G2 Spindle Vape is complete! I omitted LEDs but they can easily be added later. It uses quad filaments (Quad Damage :) and delivers a massive increase in vapor production over the PBJ unit. The switch is side-mounted, so the unit rests evenly on a flat surface. First, here's...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    Ah, but this is only the first model. A product doesn't start by being made commercially. It starts by being made as one-off 'by hand' models. A mass-produced unit would obviously be more refined, as parts would be custom built. For now, though, I'm just enjoying it myself... who knows if...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    Are you saying this isn't a 'real' vaporizer? "Real" vaporizers that put out enormous heat to inefficiently cook crude plant materials and your lungs too? This unit is far superior to anything on the market today, in my opinion. It produces what no other unit can: a truly 'cold' vapor, and is...

    Filament Vaporizer!

    After some weeks of planning and construction, I'm excited to reveal this excellent device... the Filament Vaporizer! The idea was to make a vaporizer which would deliver just exactly the energy needed to the smallest, highest purity sample of material. After I came up with the idea I did...
