Snoopy1966 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Holy French Toast!! I love that first one. The second one...no, it is not my cup of tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alademuerte Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 One of my friends really wants to buy one... But I dont know.Never really looked into them that much, just didnt seem to really interest me. I heard that the ice chambers themselves would rust and all. I just figure that having cold water would work cheaper and more effectively then having to freeze an ice chamber which would melt considering that coals would be directly above it in the ashtray.Seems like hype to me. Hopefully someone else can answer better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassman65 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 The general verdict on ice chambers seems to be that they don't make a noticeable difference since most people just put ice in the base anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLD Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I have the ice torrent. The bowl does rust if you leave water in it as does anything that is bare steel. I do this revolutionary thing, I whip the bowl. Nothing is sweeter then throwing a couple chunks of dry ice in your ice chamber and watch as half of your stem and your whole ice chamber is covered with frosty snow like ice. Its about the most refreshing smoke you can get. The ice torrent is a good starter hookah, my only complaint is the pull isnt as light as it should be. If you remove the ball bearing from the autoseal system it will pull just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*HOT&SMOKING* Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Never used an ice chamber before, but IMHO, it seems to me that it is just easier to put ice in the base. There you go problem solved, and then you don't have to worry about rust prevention.-H&S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, you'll be inhaling the fumes from it instead of your hookah smoke, and asphyxiating yourself in the process. It won't kill you or anything, just make you feel like you have to cough or that you need to breathe in more air or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CO2 would leak out the top of the chamber up and away from the bowl and stem. Putting dry ice in the base would be bad. Just a though never used an Ice Chamber, maybe someone that owns one could verify it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickReppinThe909 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 IMO they are a waste of money just trhow some crushed ice in the base and then put the base in a bucket and surround it with crushed ice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
