WOW! I leave for a day and you guys go nuts! Thanks for the review IRD3. So glad you like your pipe.
We do have ego hubs on the way. It shouldn't be long before these are standard on the pipes. I think it will be a good remedy for the ce2 and carto fans. You could use the eGo cone and then a sleeve type stem. This is another reason why the 510 sleeve stem isn't out yet, I knew this option was coming soon and I wanted to be able to incorporate it into the 510 stem.

Also the 306 stem is coming but there is one issue... If i could get some opinions it would be appreciated.
The 306 is also a sleeve fit stem with no o-rings. Essentially it stays on the atty by friction alone. Just like the Cannon.
I have had the stem release from the atty resulting in my pipe hitting the dirt (it was hanging in my mouth).
This only happened once but I am afraid that with such a small, compact pipe, It is far too tempting to hang it from your mouth which could result in a broken pipe if the stem disconnects from the atty. I want to release it, but we can't be responsible for broken pipes due to this issue...

Let me know what you guys think.

you may want to talk with a local machine shop... chances are really good..(really good)... that they can cut/thread both the hub and a custom cone that would extend past the atty / carto... and perhaps still fit your customized pipe mouth piece.......

Yeah, I've had the same thing happen with the Mega type B. When hot, the mouthpiece stays in great. But as soon as the atty cools, the mouthpiece loosens up.

What if, instead of having the drip tip friction fit to the 306 atty, you had it friction fit to the battery connection? You'd have to use a tapered bit probably, instead of a saddle bit, but it should solve the problem.

I am looking into this but it's not cheap and you have to buy quantity. We are growing and changing so fast it's hard to commit to 1000 of anything.

This is actually the plan we are currently working on. Air flow becomes an issue by covering the atty hub, but a couple small drill holes may fix that. This may decrease the chance of the mouthpiece separating from the pipe but the risk is still there.

Hey Matt,

You might also want to investigate some Mountain Laurel. We have a local guy that makes some great-looking pipes out of it. Really nice grain too.

I happen to be in NC with the express purpose of getting wood. I will definitely check out some mountain laurel.
Thanks!
