My og peak polished sic dish from jcvap arrived today
Super quick post
It is really good quality and the polished floor is brilliant
No taper
I had to clean the top edge and bottom underside quite a lot with iso qtips, it took a few to get all the sic dust off
The sides and inner bottom were pretty clean
It fits absolutely perfectly, like it was factory made
The Carta sic dish with SS sleeve fits inside the peak dish easily for size reference
I cut the sleeve I had for the Carta one down the side and wrapped it around the peak sic
At first I was worried as when I went to slide it in the reclaim cup it only got about half way and then started to get stuck
Remembering
@LesPlenty mentioned one got stuck I stopped while I could use tweezers and just managed to extract the dish and sleeve
I fiddled for a while and was disappointed thinking I'd need to use a different method to heat the dish
Then I used a hammer to gently and slowly tap the sleeve on the bent bits from stretching while it was on the dish making it perfectly (ish) round to the walls and no angles sticking out
Then I tried putting the metal sleeve into the reclaim cup first and slowly pushing the sic in evenly around the lip bit by bit after
This actually worked out fine and all fits in perfectly now, it's a very tight fit
There is no movement when cleaning which makes it easier and all is snug
One qtip/2 max and it's clean
Super duper clean, the polish is brilliant
Snug fitting dish makes clean up a breeze even more so than before
I've left the extra piece of metal out for now on the side because of the tight fit - I think that it should be fine as sic is so conductive - this is why they work only being heated from the bottom on coil rigs - if it is an issue down the track I'll try squeezing the extra bit in or a washer underneath
I have only had one dab so far and the 260° I was using with the much smaller Carta fish is not enough
I had to manual mode to get the dab going
Tasted lovely, better than the Carta one, produced top quality vapour and cleaned up easier than even a halo can
I'll have to play with temps and see where it sits
I'm think maybe around 300 might be the spot for the bigger fish without washers underneath
Also might add an extra pearl or a bigger sic pearl too
Will find out
This now absolutely makes the Daab a beast for me
Flavour is as good as anything else, hits like a beast with good clouds, CLEAN UP is sooo easy now - this is good for camping purposes now
Clean airpath
The only downside if you see it that way is the SS sleeve in the airpath
Otherwise it's the cleanest airpath going with a hard hitting unit that cleans easy af and tastes great
The bigger dish over the Carta or the factory cups is a huge benefit too - easier to use, clean, take bigger dabs and to make better use of the carb cap and moving it around
Especially with the price point I'd only be looking at size and pocketability as a need to buy something else for dabbing now - maybe a true portable
Really happy with this as a mod
Ispire really need to look at this as it makes their unit truly formidable with some of the rigs that cost a lot more
I liked the sic mod before but with proper fitting parts it makes it perfect and easier/better to use
If they do something like this from factory they will be onto something for their marketing
Daab + polished og peak sic dish = yes please
