Yeah TI has me super sketched at this point. too much bullshit goin around and price doesnt mean anything. Theres probably a bunch of people sellin garbage ass TI and just because theyre chargin around normal price of HEs stuff people are probably convinced its real.

Really tryin to stick to quartz or ceramic even. Cant wait for domeless.com to drop their new shit. Been talkin to him a little more tryin to get stuff figured out so i can inform more people.

That was always my favorite thing i saw. Someone take a quartz domeless nail, heat it up til it just started to get red which takes a while for quartz, then drop it in a thing of water. pull it out and boom, not a single crack, solid as can be. Best of all the "nail tests" ive ever seen. No magnet bullshit haha.

I can vouch for a seller on ebay. My coil was and is legit.

I've looked into the group buy from alibaba. You really need to order 20+ units for it to make sense with the shipping.

Were talkin about TI nails not coils haha. Ive seen a few online and theyre at a reasonable price between 75 and 90.

Got it. Either way, my HE DualTI I got with my coil from ebay is legit. I only paid an extra 50 for it. The coil wraps around it perfectly. I like how it wraps around the head of the nail a lot more too.

Nice! Thats not a bad price i think i saw that same one the other day. The nylon white/tan cord for the coil?? Had the option to add a nail for like 50 so im assuming it was the same one. Feel free to throw links down for potential buyers. Like racer said though try to put some writing in it or some pictures of the shit so it doesnt get deleted because someone thinks its spam.

Heres the link to the coil I'm talking about. The HE DualTi for an extra 50 for a total of 130. The cable is golden fiberglass. It is VERY flexible and does not tip my rig over like the steel braided coil did.

Sorry about the orientation. I posted a couple pictures to show you how the coil mounts to the nail. Its super solid.

Yup thats the exact same one i saw on ebay the other day. That setup looks nice! Does the coil rest on a heat sink or something??

Also, probably gonna get one of these

With you on that one budbro I went to the head shop to look around and all the quartz honey holes were sold out.

like the drop down brov. I'm going to get one from a local blower "Etch Glass" with some honey drip on it for 95 and no work for 40.

Thats a good price! You should talk to him about making some quartz e-nail domeless nails!!! Ive been lookin everywhere for someone to make them!!

I cant see them being more than 75 to 100 which would be nice compared to the 175-250 those d-nail ones cost.

I've had an idea for a solution for a quartz nail for a while now but I have yet to try it. I see the the ice wax guys love the screen on top of an e nail and it would be worth a shot to design a quartz cup that rest in or on your existing TI. The heat transfer might not be very good, but I know these coils are not at their upper limits.

Yeah people have started using ceramic pieces that sit on their nails as well as ceramic screens and ti screens

I usually just get it a little more hot than usual and dab it even if its not the fullest melt.haha Orderin parts to day cause i had some shit to take care of over the weekend so hopin their shippings fast.

Aubers in Georgia i think so shouldnt take too long.

Gotta get this show on the ROAD!

There Designed and Engineered in Alpharetta, Ga I grew up there and im about 30 mins from there. But they are built in China. This is not a bad thing. As long as you do all the R&D here then have the product made in China it will be a better product. A example would be the PAX by PLOOM. Designed and Engineered in the San Fran but built in China. But one of the best handheld vapes ever. I use mine ALL THE TIME.

Remember there is a difference between MADE in China & BUILT in China. So anyone worried about the brand this will make you feel better.

Hey i dont mind certain things made in china. Had a ph meter that i broke the other day. Lasted almost 2 years and id calibrate it about once every 2 or 3 months and it was never off by more than .1 or .2 and i treated this thing like something that cost 8 bucks haha. Exact same as the yellow hanna meters, probably exact same internals, just no name brand. Imagine how many cheap ass iphones thered be on ebay if apple wasnt such a patent whore.


And like you said as long as R&D is done by a quality company. Canon and nikon are both Japanese companies and they make killer stuff. Apple as well makes all of their shit in china but do the hardcore R&D and thats what youre paying for.

Its the same thing with the coils as well. Theres really no place ive heard of getting them besides china. haha so many people give them shit when its the creator of the product who should get the shit. And alot of times its probably a US maker who wants to cut corners to profit more and all the factories get told is how to make what at what specifications.

Same thing with the TI. If i knew the person making it there and got it tested and it came back to be the grade 2 they said it would be id support the hell out of them.

I did find one or two companies that make coil heaters w/ Thermocouples in the U.S. Forgot then websites maybe find them again just have too look there just pricey. I'll look them up.

and I'm with you on a company that test there TI ill fucks with them.

(then we'll fox with each other... How high)

Hahahaha Fuck you, buy us! Too classic.

But yeah cant even go on a "certificate of authenticity" because anyone with photoshop and google images can make one saying whatever they want.

Good news is i found the new HE ti enail domeless nails from an instagram headshop for only 90. Which makes me think if we "wholesale" order em ourselves there must be a pretty good discount for a headshop to sell em for 90.

One step closer to figuring it out!
