The Screwball (The GOAT heavy hitter) by Vapvana has been meticulously designed to be what is currently the heaviest hitting diffuser style dry herb diffuser on the market. It can be run as either a convection heavy or as true hyrbid setup, making use of convection (hot air) and conduction (hot surface) if the bowl is left to heat soak for around 15 seconds!

The Screwball has the fastest extractions and runs at the lowest and most accurate temperatures, so when you set the numbers on the PID they're almost identical to the actual vaping temperatures making it very easy to use and fine tune. The Flavour is the best we've come across from a full titanium setup and the temperature accuracy means it even rivals the all glass/quartz setups which are currently available. Initial heat time is around 3 minutes and there is no need to allow it to recharge between inhales due to the extended housing and coil design.

As mentioned the Screwball can be used as more of a convection vape if you place the housing on the bowl and inhale straight away, or you can turn the temps down, heat soak the bowl and use it as a hybrid! Due to the thickness, or thinness, of the Titanium bowl it provides the fastest heat soak of any hybrid diffuser vape currently on the market.

The Screwball comes as a full kit with everything you need to get started and is fully set up from the factory making basically plug and play! No need to mess around loading in rubies, installing a handle or anything else. Just plug the coil into the PID controller, the PID controller into the power outlet, set the temperature and wait for it to heat!

Having gone through many prototype iterations it is very finely tuned and well set up, with machining tolerances to envy. The bowl capacity is around 0.3-0.4g with a ridge set into the middle of the bowl to allow for half packs of around 0.15-0.2g for those of you who'd prefer to use a little less. For the absolute best performance it's advisable to keep your herb level with the top of the bowl, so if you prefer to use less, adjusting the screen to the relevant height is highly recommended.

Making use of a custom size 25mm Heater Coil, a housing filled with gemstone cut rubies and a wide shallow Titanium bowl which fits up inside the housing, the ScrewBall provides the fastest extractions of any diffuser (or ball vape) on the market. This makes for almost instantiations and thick vapor production with the ability to clear the entire bowl contents in one large inhale when run at the higher end of the suggested temperature range. The stand has also been designed to provide minimal contact with the heated housing so that the heat stays where it should be, inside the housing, making for an especially thermally stable setup.

The Screwball provides very free flowing airflow for natural inhales without much restriction at all, if you prefer a little more restriction running it through a bubbler which provides this is advisable. Being such a finely tuned setup, the glassware you run this through can make a significant difference to the overall experience. We advise using a medium grind with this Diffuser to allow the airflow to pass through the herb for maximum performance, a fine grind can also be used, though for perfection in this instance we suggest giving the bowl a little heat soak of around 15 seconds before inhaling.

We now have the new version in stock which has an updated airflow cap that has moved the air intake holes to the side instead of having them on top (shown in the last image). This updated setup provides even more airflow through the device and helps retain more heat in the gemstone cut rubies inside the housing for a slightly upgrade in performance.

Loading and settings

The suggested temperature range for this diffuser is between 440-500F or 226-260C. You can use it at temperatures as low as 420F or 215C especially with longer heat soaks. We would not advise going higher than 545F or 285C as you risk combustion, at these higher temperatures do not heat soak the bowl.
Always load the Screwball bowl to the rim, then adjust the herb with the included SQP (Scoop and Tamper) to ensure none is sticking up above the rim.
The same applies if using the Screwball bowl set up as a half pack, as mentioned this is advisable to get the best experience if it's being used with smaller loads.
You can tamp the Screwball bowl, but only do this very gently. Tamping will make for even faster initial vapor production and the ability to load a little more inside, however if you tamp too hard and create a puck inside, the bottom herb will be slightly lighter than the top unless you give the bowl a little heat soak before inhaling.

Cleaning

Maintenance here is very easy...
When residue starts to build up inside the bowl this can be very easily wiped off with a q-tip, do this while the bowl is still warm after use and you can avoid the need to soak it in ISO or use any cleaning solvents.
After some time residues will start to build up in the herb chamber section of the bowl. To remove this you can use a q-tip soaked in ISO to wipe it off or you can pop the bowl (remove the handle and screen first) in ISO for an hour, then then wipe it off.
If using solvents always allow the bowl to dry fully before use.
Using the included brush you can easily keep the screen free of residues for a long time. When it starts to clog up simply pop it out and replace it, or if you have a blowtorch lighter you can hold the screen with tweezers, torch it until the residues have turned white, then when it's cooled brush it off and pop it back into your bowl!
The housing does not need to be cleaned. Though like most devices, before first use it's a good idea to turn the PID up to 280C and leave it for 10 minutes, just to ensure any residues from manufacture or packing have been burned off. Then turn it back down to vaping temperatures.
