I originally got the solo 2 in late 2019 and then got a dynavap M 2020. After that I realized I wanted to use a bong with my dyna so I got a BB9. I used those for a while and they did me great but ended up getting the Arizer EQ.
Since I got that about a year and a half ago I haven’t got anything new. I think I have all the necessities when it comes to my use. I feel like I am one of the lucky ones (or unlucky) who had not been clutched by it!
Built a floodlamp/hurricane glove conduction vape from home depot parts back in '03, maybe. It worked, but not well enough to ignite the fire. Back in 2017 or so I wound up buying a battery powered vape (a gpen I think) which also failed to impress.
In 2019 I bought a dynavap on the rec from an internet stranger and it was the first real device I found that worked WELL.
I started making custom parts and offering anodization. One thing led to another and soon I’m releasing full artisan vapes, DIY vapes, customized artwork, accessories, and setting industry trends with a group of very intelligent colleagues. I’m even branching out into other industries (started screwing with keebs) and am now publishing a lot of my design work for others to enjoy in addition to the big open source contribs to the Vape community. The HLT and ATM are both still very popular and sell well!
It has been a wild ride so far and there is more work yet to be done… I still get VAS but I am more on the “supply” side of VAS now!
