Thank you for the info it helps a lot it's a big decision for me ha, and oo wow I didn't notice that it didn't have a valve to soak for a long time, iv seen those open blast tubes that have valves so you can shut it and leave it pressurized for a while then release it. Do you think those are any good iv seen them for like 200 at my local smoke shop.
Do you think the smaller 60-90 gram one would be better for the smaller tube?
It's like $500 cheaper also.
Yeah id get this one:

That way you have everything to run minus butane and vac but you can get the package with their vac or grab one of your own either way youll be fine.
The best part is that to upgrade you could buy parts from places like glacier tanks. Get another 12"x1.5" tube, another gasket or 2, a tri clamp and boom youve doubled your material tube for under $100. Then if you really wanna go hard buy either another 12"x1.5" tube on top of those 2, or just get a 2 foot tube to begin with and a 6x6 spool, gasket and tri clamp and for under $200 you can now run a half lb or so pretty easily.
And the best best part is that its all interchangable. Lets say you get a big bag of trim to run, you strap up the big tubes with teh big collection chamber. Then maybe youre runnin a couple zip nug run, you drop down to 1 or 2 of the tubes and maybe keep the extra big collection chamber to give yourself a little more pull through the tube.
Either way youll have somethin good. Grab the can tapper and vac pump in the combo order if you dont have either of them because you will need them.
As far as supplies for recovery you could get 2 coolers. Or a cooler and a hot plate pot big enough to fit the extractor
If you really want to go hard you can get an emersion cooker heating element. Some have digital controls, some analog, some are just fixed to only heat to a certain temp. Either way if youre just using it for recovery youre good.
Hope that helped!
