[option 1] 18mm male injector ball vape housing mounted in a ceramic cup with the male joint pointing up, 18mm cooling stem as a bowl and mouthpiece (like an Elev8r wand)
The tinymight stem just fits onto the ruby twist ball housing? I have a TM2 stem I was messing around with and was wondering if it would fit into any ball vape heads so that’s good to know if it does. @Rodney
Yes it fits very loosely and I think that is why it hits so well.
I posted this several times over the years - I have multiple ball vapes and most of the best portable vapes but nothing hits quite like the Ruby Twist with the TM2 long dimpled stem. Its like the a mega powered TM2 with no batteries and precise temperature control.
This is me using it, sorry its upside down. I have the micro dose bowl and used that with a bong but this just hits so so much better.
To clean all you do is run really hot water threw it down the drain. None of the water and gunk hits my sink as I hold it so it just goes straight down the sink.
I run it at 280OC-290OC and I heat soak it for 20-50 seconds before I inhale. It never ever combusts. Tastes much better at 280
The only other vape I own that hits as good is the Dani Fusion 2 but I dont like manual vapes much and it is not that easy to clean compared to this and the O rings get destroyed each time you use it.
The only other thing to add is it only works so well like this with the rimmed basket screens. I tried multiple different screens with this and not exactly sure why, something to do with the metal from the vape contacting the rim from screen and conduction.
My mini-ball vape quickly became one of my favorite setups to use around the house. Amazingly portable and the hits I get from this tiny setup rock. The IH, TM2 bowl, the Crown and the small water pipe fit perfectly in an old digital camera case.
I like smaller logs a lot, but if you want heavyish hits and an 18 mm format with really clean and almost endless power, I can vouch for the the DBV with the baller upgrade.
I was able to get a factory second dbv from elev8 for $150US and the baller upgrade was something like $70 I think. Maybe just slightly over your budget but the power is easily ball vape level in a log format.
