Small Phunnel Question

[bassman65]

Do you think that, generally, the small phunnel will conserve your shisha stash in party situations. I like to bring my hookahs to parties as most do. However, last night, I realized how much shisha we go through. Probably like 6 bowls throughout the night, so that's approximately 90 grams of shisha over 5 hours. Seeing as people say that the phunnel lasts a good few hours and many believe it to improve smoke quality, I think it'd be a good investment for my situation, However, the only thing that I'm concerned about is the amount of shisha the HC website says it holds (40-50 grams). I'm thinking this might not be economical if we're not smoking for the 4 hours straight (people rotate between rooms), or have the tendency to get sick of the flavor.
So, my real question is, are the numbers given by the HC website (40-50 grams) accurate? Also, how little can you pack in the bowl to still get an good, long lasting smoke?

ALSO, does anyone use this bowl for short, solo sessions?

My other questions:
1. I'm going camping this summer, can I use coal from the campfire with my hookah? Will heat management be hard?
2. I might be going to Egypt this winter. Is there a limit do you think to how many hookahs I can take back? I was planning on picking myself up another 1-2, and another stem for my friend.

Yes it would. It lasts forever and packs a decent amount.

1. I would not. Never have, but I believe that, that sort of wood would need constant heat to stay one, and once taken away from the fire pit, it will start to gradually go black.

2. I believe 2. Not so sure.

I wouldn't use regular charcoal. I've heard it has a strong woody smell to it even after its turned all red, and often it produces a lot of carbon monoxide.

The small funnel holds about 25-30g without a mod, and 15-20 with a mod. you can order the mod from hookahcompany.

I recommend it highly.
