Cooling stems for xmax v3 pro
Hey guys,
I use an Xmax v3 pro, I am the sort of person that has to tinker with everything, I just can't help myself.
My Xmax is great, and there are a few different mouthpiece options, I've got a few and had complaints about all of the standard options. The vape itself does everything I need it to, the mouthpiece is the only bit I dislike.
Standard plastic mouthpiece - can't be soaked in everclear for cleaning/resin reclaim. Plastic is Brittle.
Glass bubbler - too fiddly, hard to keep clean, water residue is appearing inside and I can't do anything about it. Filing with water is a faff, but this does effectively cool the vapour and works well dry.
Water pipe adapter - great but requires an additional water pipe for cooling, not very portable.
Glass mouthpiece - this was my goto, I can soak the metal and glass parts in everclear to claim back the resin, it's portable, it cools better than the standard plastic mouthpiece but not quite enough for my preference.
A bit of measuring and research online told me that the POTV lobo cooling stems will fit in the rubber gasket from the glass mouthpiece, upon arrival I tried it and they do technically fit but are a bit loose. I put some plumbers tape in to fill the gap and create a tight fit. I'm really happy with it. I have some o rings arriving soon so I'm hoping that will create a better looking end product.
This is very effective for cooling like the dry bubbler but allows for much easier cleaning.
Has anyone else done anything similar? Any glass pieces that work quite well?
