A question for people who use the case, does the magnetic cap cause any scratches on the Vi housing?
I stopped using the reload V2 cap as it scratched the crap out of my Tempest 1 & 2. Once the reload V3 came out I polished the scratches out. I know I’m being precious but I want to keep it shiny 
Just ordered a heater core. Prolly my karma or something, but I’ve lost about 10,000 balls by now when the screen inevitably falls out.

any feedback on the SS Heater Core?
I’ve had it about 2 weeks and I really like it.
Performance wise is very close to 3mm stainless steel balls, with a little bit of extra conduction.
If you want to puff on your Tempest like a J I would definitely recommend it. I’ve been using it with medium bowl setting and use the YLL around 85w x42 seconds
If i take small 2 second puffs it will stay hot for about 90 seconds, and can get 10+ hits off one bowl. If you want to do direct hits I’d drop the YLL down to 80w or you might get too close to the danger zone 
If you already have SS balls it’s not a must buy, but I think I’ll be using this in future for my MTL set up for the slightly stonier buzz

What settings have yall settled on for the SS core in the yll 3.0? I’ve been running it at 80-85 watts for 40-42 seconds. I can’t seem to get an even roast with the SS, the outer material vapes thoroughly but the centre is always undercooked. I have the airport closed off and the airflow on the head set around 50% open.

Would like to piggyback your post but wondering about the ti insert and if anyone has enough knowledge to know how similar the ss core experience will be thanks
I’m doing 85w x45 seconds and getting really good results.
I can get about 12 joint style toaks from one cycle, and then I drop the YLL to 80w x40 for a second cycle to finish it off
Question for other core owners, do you think you get more hybrid effects? I’ve just had my first Friday night session and I’m feeling very chilled out

I feel like I get a stonier high with the TI core, I also get a deeper more thorough roast. I defo prefer it over stock balls or rubies. I’m still trying to figure out the SS core.

Rubies are still my favourite for bong rips. I use the big bowl setting and have been getting full even roast using 85w x44 seconds. I’ve got the same settings for the SS core but prefer puffing on it
I use the Ti the same way as zirconia 80w x42 & I do think you are right about the hybrid stony effects
I’m looking forward to trying the new stainless steel Slim with the heat cores. I’m getting a black one I think

Rubies defo give the best experience at 85W 41 Seconds however after having a ball screen incident in a car park and losing a pack of balls, the SS core at 85W 42 seconds holds up pretty well. Also gives a really satisfying rattle haha
