IAmFromJamany Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I heard someone once talking about nice hoses that have a valve inside of them, but i'm kinda new so i can't find any. Anyone know if these exist/ where you can get them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boss Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I can't say that I've ever heard of such hoses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olooko Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 are you talking about auto sealing. If so they are apart of the connector, not the hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allia22 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 ...Why would you get this hose for a single hose hookah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you (the manufacturer) could add a thumb button that would lift the ball to allow for purging. Helluva lot easier than in the adaptor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echo_419 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 http://mnhookahs.com/product_info.php?cPat...;products_id=94It does exsist but its not the hose.Its a stem adapter. It looks like a normal input for a hose that actually has a ball bearing at the bottom. When u inhale through the hose the ball bearing lifts up but when you suck on the other hose it bulls the ball back creating a seal, inorder to clean out the stale smoke, just blow into the hose thats not using the adaptar and the smoke will blow out the one with the adaptar. Hope this Helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sznapsy Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 That would be a way to add autoseal to non-autosealing hookahs, have the valve inside the hose rather then the adaptor...someone should get on that...of course you'd only buy it for multi hose hookahs and not for a single hose.

Sonthert Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I think I have seen valve type things that fit between a hose and the hose port. I don't know where, when or anything else. I remember because I used to think it would be a good invention, and then I saw them and said "crap, they took another one of my ideas". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SafeSearchOff Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 its pretty easy to mod a hose plug to have an auto seal if you really want to.get a drill, and a super short screw. drill a hole in one side of the plug for the screw. throw in a ball bearing big enouhg not to fall down the hole or get nice and stuck. screw in the screw, make surei ts long enough to cover 80% of the distance to the other side of the plug.ta-daaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
