Wick - Nextel Braided Ceramic -6" - DiscountVapers.com
Has anyone used something like this before?? If it works the way I'm thinking it would, it might allow for some builds that are quite different from the type we're used to seeing...
While it is braided and not ceramic wafers or slabs, traditional vaporizers (I.e. the ones used for organic materials) utilize ceramic-surround heating elements. Granted, they are much more powerful, but the "coils" in them last indefinitely- years at least, and I've seen a few that are over a decade old. Mine is just pushing 5 years this year and still going strong. So, it stands to reason that with appropriate materials, we can at least extend the life of our comparatively-smaller units, while possibly vaping on safer equipment at the same time.
Any thoughts?
