Evilsquirrel Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 So I'm preparing to do about a $100 dollar budget order at Hookahjohn.com. I'm down to my last $15 and cant decide between another 250g of Nakhla and a Egyptian bowl, or a small phunnel bowl. Being a jobless full time student, I got to make my money last. HELP MEEE haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Small phunnel, hands down. It's a better investment IMHO. I love mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majid Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Those phunnels need a lot of tobacco, since money is an issue here i would go for the nakhla+egyptian bowl, phunnel would eat up your tobacco money quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A small phunnel packed lightly with Nakhla will make the tobacco last plenty long. It might not provide big clouds like packing it tightly would though.

Arcane Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 i'd vote for the nak and egyptian...if you're trying to make this last, an egyptian + nak will give you more sessions (if you only smoke for an hour or 2 at a time)...the phunnel may give you longer sessions, but fewer of them...let's look at it like this:egyptian: 750g total/20g per bowl = ~37 bowls x 1hr sessions = 37 hours of smoking.phunnel: 500g total/40g per bowl = ~12 bowls x 3hrs per session = 36hrs.the total smoke time is about the same, but you get quite a bit more sessions with the egyptian. also, the phunnel isn't so cost effective if you don't cash the bowl every session. you'll end up throwing away unused shisha.

indian_villager Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Get the small phunnel. It will improve the naklah sessions like you wouldn't belive (use mattarios' method, its what I've been doing since before he posted it). And if you want to free up some cash consider switching your bambino for a qt. I think I like the Qt's better as there is more to it and it is far less likely to tip over.

NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 gotta go with the small phunnel bowl if money is tight, the nak will come and go with nothing but memories to show for the money spent, but the phunnel bowl will be there forever to help create future memories for a long time to come..long has you dont break it..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evilsquirrel Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 I knew I shouldn't have waited, now im stuck between the Bambino and the QT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joytron Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 get the bambino. The heart is smooth versus whereas the QT's is rough. The only reason to get a QT is if you really want to turn it into a two hose. I got a mya used that had the rough heart and could never get the foul smell out of it.

Evilsquirrel Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 you can make the Bambino a 2 hose witha a Syrian hose adapter where the purge valve is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
