theotherone31415 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 So something occured to me: i don't think many people use diffusers for their hookah.I do. I don't think I ever didn't...so. Who uses it, why, and is there much of a differene?Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJE03 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Used to use mine, won't fit on my KM stem so I no longer use it. Was nice because it made it quieter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alademuerte Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I cant vouch that it makes a difference in filtering anything at all (though my water does get pretty different even when using a phunnel)...But I can say that it makes it quieter, cuts down on the big bubbles so its a smoother pull, no vibrations through the hookah and hoses.My hookahs have always had a diffuser.. I like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbean422 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 i like my diffuser even though i dont know weither or not it makes a difference in filtering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shisha fan Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 i use my heba diffuser when i`m watching a movie and it makes the hookah a little quieter, and the smoke also seems a little thicker sometimes. unfortunately it doesn`t fit on my favorite hookah, so i don`t use it very much anymore.

Codename067 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Never used one because I know it would never fit my KM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireMeetsIce Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I have a small one inside a large one and I love them. It's like a pistol silencer...but for bubbles. I don't know if the smoke is smoother, but the pull is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggaenerator Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Large doesnt fit my Saturn, small seems too small, and i dont really feel the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anxiety Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 the large does fit over the km, and imo it makes a pretty nice difference. I can't smoke with out it now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manic007 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 I use a diffuser, it stops the vibrations on my smaller shisha. And I'm fairly sure the smoke is cooler, but it could just be psychological Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theotherone31415 Posted May 1, 2008 Author Share Posted May 1, 2008 yeah, it definitely quiets it down. but the reason i use it is cause apparently it increases the surface area of smoke by breaking it down into a lot of small bubbles which increases smoke denisty. a science-guy friend of mine told me this was the logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisrbts Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 i use my heba diffuser almost everytime i smokeit makes it so the water doesn't bubble which keeps the smoke in the water more so it feels cooler and you can take bigger hitswon't smoke without one now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Devils Playground Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) Heres a funny concept. I drop the water level down in hookahs to make them hit easier in the lounge and people Bytch theres not enough water. If you take that water level way down it gets very quiet also. But Maybe I have to remember My customer base is not like the normal world. lolThey seriously like all that dam Noise. Weird if you ask me.

nathan_Choi Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I don't think I could ever quite find the sweet spot for water, even after all this time with my hookah. If I put too little, it seems hard to hit, too much and I get water in the hose. I've heard half inch above them stem is good, but when I put that much in it always seems like too little.I used to have a diffuser, but I lost it. I can't really say if it filters it or not, but it does make it quieter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggaenerator Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Green with stars. No way it fits and no way MYA makes different holes for different base styles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I use one on my pharoh and my mini mya. my mya obelisk's won't fit down into the base, neck of the vase is two narrow.I love them personally...working on a mod for the obelisk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikemyusername Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 the best way to make one that i'e found is to use sprinkler head filters, they are kinda big but you can file them perfectly on a piece of cementand theyre about 10 cents apeice. however i havent found there to be a major difference in the smoke quality as far as harshness smoothness flavor thickness or any of that. as to weather or not they filter the smoke better, thats debatable but they definitley do make it quieter.

No way it fits and no way MYA makes different holes for different base styles maybe you guys are using a different diffusor, i think heba makes a small and a large but i haven't checked them out in a while. sprinkler head filters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
