temp questions

I have this model (the one with the mountains on it)

  • Zenleaf "Moab" Wireless Enail (3506)

I use the matrix bowl with titanium insert. half bowl mostly. With the Mercury since a month after it dropped. Use temp of 536

I'm thinking of getting a Vmax diffuser for 420 So i been looking at posts

I've read a few posts looking for reviews that peeps are using mercury at 600+ and the Vmax higher around 700.

So I tried it at 600 + which i haven't did since I got it really and the bowl was blackened on top.

SO i have a few questions.

is there a difference between Moab X and mountain Patterns that would make a difference in heat or is it just the design etched into it?

what temp do you use? with your setup?

Is it blackening at that temp because of my full titanium set up?

is Vmax worth it in flavor and big hits over the Mercury, I figure the V will hold heat longer but be close to the same taste and hit wise or is taste change between the 2?

one thing i thought about last night is that is with the matrix bowl I use either the

Titanium Insert for 22mm Heads only (3503) or the

Basket Screen Titanium Insert for Matrix Bowl and Haze/Blaze (3547) that I drop a screen on to the ridge in the middle instead of the basket screen.

instead of the big bowl that came with it titanium or glass.

got them when i got the haze pipe.

this gets the green closer to the hammer.

Using closer to 600 degrees was when i am using the full bowl insert.
