Floataround Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 So, while I would not buy this, H-S sent me one for free with my last order. I have tried to use it , and I can not get a good seal on it. I plug in the standard mouthpiece and its perfect again, so I know it is not a hose malfunction. Has anyone else had any issues with these? I still get clouds, but not nearly what I should and do with a normal mouth piece, and can hear the air I am getting clearly. When I cupped the entrance to the hose port, it helped some, but not a lot. Anyone else experience this? Suggestions? Its not a lose on my end either way, but it would be cool if I could get it to function as it should. For those not 100% sure with what I am referring to...see here.

Epoch Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I hear the diameter of the "fancy" tips are smaller than the normal ones. More restrictive pull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I have one... piece of junk, IMO. It screws apart, no? Mine does. Then again, mine came from Hookahset, so it may not be real... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Try wrapping a little electrical tape around where it fits into the hose. Give it a little more width to fit in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will give it a shot just to try it once with the tap, and then back to the random box it goes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grock Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Looks too similar to the original Namoor mouth pieces for me to justify even trying it. HOWEVER, I'm DYING to get these KM mouth pieces for my incoming Tri-metal: [url="http://5starhookah.com/Khalil-Mamoon-Copper-Hose-Tip-CT211.htm"]http://5starhookah.com/Khalil-Mamoon-Copper-Hose-Tip-CT211.htm[/url] [url="http://5starhookah.com/Khalil-Mamoon-Oxide-Hose-Tip-OHT125.htm"]http://5starhookah.com/Khalil-Mamoon-Oxide-Hose-Tip-OHT125.htm[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 I don't think they are that great. I have one. I don't recall a seal problem. I just don't like the metal tip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grock Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I cant really complain, some of the cheapest shisha Ive found so far, and a very large selection of tangiers bowls, at around $14 or $15. Ordered on friday night, arrived Tuesday. Not half bad considering Im on the east coast and they ship from CA. I'll check out hookah company though.

Zildjian Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 grock ill sell you my metal tips. I have one of each color. I dont like them, they are really pretty, but the mouthpiece is the same diameter as a mya wide, about half of a regular km/nammor/etc hose.

Rani Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 You're not going to believe what I use mine for...... (Gutter, mind, OUT!) (They gave it to me with a Nammor order and I didn't have a clue about the freakin' thing.) On my smaller hookahs (-28") I fit it over the purge to balance the weight of the hose. No more tilt due to weight of the hose! 'Rani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
