Canon Posted November 15, 2007 Author Share Posted November 15, 2007 well, im wanting to know how hot it gets so i can know what i can and cannot use if i make another home made hookah. i dont want to use something that will possibly melt and end up hurting me.

Canon Posted November 15, 2007 Author Share Posted November 15, 2007 my first hookah didnt go well because i was being impatient. but it was an awesome design. it had the hose come out the bottom, that way the smoke goes through the water 2 times, letting it cool off a little more. unfortunately, instead of using caulk, i used hot glue and that didnt work too well for the leak (i kept making it worse) but im wanting my 2nd hookah to be a little more tough. (still want the same design though) so no one has any idea how hot it gets? (except Zildjian) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekon Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Pretty sure it gets to about the coals temperature. Maybe a bit more. So i'm going to say close to 150-200 degrees F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canon Posted November 15, 2007 Author Share Posted November 15, 2007 its quick lights, i start it in my hand by lighting the little dimple then put it on the bowl and let it finish quick lighting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 This is a very good question though. I've been looking into getting one of those temperature probes that you can plug into a pc thats much more accurate than the $1 one of your average egg timer. That information would be very useful in designing a hookah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheese// Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 That's what I do.I grab the edge.Light a match then hold it there.It burns my handbut I just say "FUCK!" on the inside.And for my next trick I shall light a natural coal in feet.

GiantSquid Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I'll check it with a digital thermometer after my classes. The bowl AND the shisha though? I've never really noticed the shisha being excessively hot. The only time I ever get burned is when I touch the bowl or when quicklights shoot sparks at me.
