If using on the stem and your heating on an induction heater without the handle and screw does the cap not screw in or hold in place ?
@PHONO that’s awesome, great idea! I have that CXL stem in a drawer so I’ll have to get it out. My glass wpa is much thicker than the glass stem that broke. It was hard to fit in there too.. just asking for trouble. Luckily just two pieces broke off that I found later while the Solaris was left dangling on the end of it
Finally have a wooden wpa on the way.
@liwanra I am using the handle to lock down the cap when using on a stem since it would most likely fall off ![]()
Yeah i still use the handle on native stem use as well. Just feels like you have one of those old fancy cig holders rofl.
It will also stay on just from the force from sucking, but have to keep it ever so slightly tilted up and risk having the hot ass cap fall off if you accidentally tilt it too forward and aren’t actively pulling at the time.
Any word on the new cap preorder/release?
According to idB, should have wpa’s and new caps in hand to send out this upcoming week.
Hope its the case!
I just checked this morning, nothing has shipped. First purchase from CC, are these types of delays typical? Or just global logistics issues? I feel like in general, makers in this space tend to be overly optimistic when they announce preorders.![]()
Yeah originally they were delayed a tad bc of the shop needing to correct one of the pieces and are supposed to be to him by end of this week for him to start shipping out this coming week.
This is only my 2nd order from him.
First one was the og solaris, which took like a week or 2 after the initial predicted dateframe to ship out.
We are right at 2 weeks from the predicted ship date on this round. If they go out in the next few days, I’d consider it a success. I’m entering my third month past the predicted ship date on another preorder. So this isn’t bad at all. ![]()
Yes, this is very much par for course for CC. On Reddit/vaporents they had the recommended budget ball vape for awhile, but lost out to the Ruby Twist solely because they could never quite work out supply side.
CC makes great products, but you gotta be patient.
Any updates anyone …lol, it has been a while since the target date.
