U sure u cleaned out the bulb properly. There's alot of harsh chemicals inside of those things that you're DEFINITELY not supposed to smoke!

Probably didn't, just washed it out quite thoroughly with salt water and scrubbed it a little.. Better ways?
when i made mine a while ago when i was lighting it it would always get black residue where i was lighting... mind you i was using a lighter... but i would have to keep whiping it and i don't think it worked very well in the first place... idk i would like to try a good one too
On the outside of the bulb? Carbon monoxide bro, when the lighter fuel doesn't completely combust coz there's not enough air.
thanks man i would imagine it would be better to use a candleQuote:

From what i know you're supposed to put salt into the bulb and shake it around and it acts as an abrasive which removes the powder. Not sure if salt water would work the same or not.
u have to use just salt in a dry bulb to get the white shit off
Or you could use a clear bulb. Probably would be safer that way.
And doesn't the black smudge form on the outside of the bulb if you hold the lighter too close? Try holding it further away from the bulb, if it's blackening the bulb, you're probably scorching your weed too.
every time i see posts for these, all i think about is meth pipes... thats what people call them around here, you def. dont want to have one on you if you get busted in this part of the country. thats 3 years in the pen....
