Since myas have auto seal ports and many people want auto seals and multi hose hookahs, wouldnt it be more efficient to get an auto seal hose? That way, no plugging is necessary and you can practically use it for any hookah out there!

actually....
sounds like a GREAT idea if you could implement it practically.

How can a ball be big enough not to fall through the end of the hose, but small enough to not effect the draw....




It cant be both!


hallow plastic ball like a mini pingpong ball with mesh over it so that it cant get sucked all the way up. also have the bottom shaped like \ / but the problem is you cant blow through the hose when crap gets in it

its a flawed idea, theres no way to get shit out of it once it gets in there

Couldn't you just blow the opposite way to get crap out? I'm seeing it acting exactly like a mya auto seal works, which doesn't really affect the draw. So I think it's a fantastic idea, hell you could probably do it on a hose you already have.

1st of all, there could be a mesh covering the hose PORT where the smoke comes in from the hookah, the bb will be bigger, approx 1 cm in diameter, when pulling, there will be a rod that prevents the bb from going all the way up, and also, to clean it, you shoot water through the end of the hose, not the tip

this hose would 1st, prevent crap from getting into the hose, would be washable so no crap would grow inside, and be useful for all those multi hosed, kms, mzs and so on. This makes all multi hookahs efficient, not only myas because of their auto seal ports. Also, it would be a plastic ball, making it even better than myas, because they wont get stuck

what about water getting sucked up? also you would still ahve to wash all the crap out through the mouth end which is gross


i think it's a horrible idea. none the less, for ingenuity's sake - make the tips removable: either both or just one. if you make them both removable then it's super bad ass and you can clean any and everything. if the end that goes into the pipe is the removable one then flush from the mouth tip side down like always and clean the auto-sealing port side separately. if the mouthpiece is removable, then just clean from the port-side 'up' through where the mouthpiece would be and clean the mouthpiece separately…et voilà

Or you can go to the plumbing section of lowes, namely around the pvc fittings and pick up a check valve and adapt that to your system.


That's my thought.

If you go this route, I hope you like big clunky things as those check valves aren't very small. I also highly recommend switching out the springs in them because they make the draw very restrictive.
