Hey Zeuss, my lungs can't handle the particulate in the vapor... I actually found it really hard to convert from smoking to vaping because of that. The solution for me, was filtering the vapor. It's quite gratifying to see the micro particles that get filtered out... This is my old setup with a cheap ass water pipe off dhgate. And it worked very nicely, I even replaced the water pipe when I broke it a while back... But then one day, it occurred to me that the whip elbow was a standard ground glass joint that would fit in my other bong lol (A bigger and better cheap arse bong from dhgate lol) And I find that this one draws a lot easier. I don't understand the physics of that, but maybe a bigger bong is better. Maybe the whip length affects the difficulty of the draw as well?? Would love anyone to chime in that understands this shit. And I don't like bags... feel like a tard sucking out of one lol
