![]() Take the white Teflon lid containing the OA and push it onto the bowl (be careful the vaporizer bowl is very HOT!) Place the still inverted vaporizer stem (with lid attached) into the drilled hole then turn the vaporizer right side up and tap the lid. ![]() One gram is almost ¼ teaspoon, so on a two brood chamber hive you would use ½ a teaspoon. Use one gram per brood chamber no matter the size be it mediums or deeps, eight or ten frame. Do NOT pack the OA in the lid rather place it loosely. In the white Teflon lids (recess side up) place the appropriate amount of OA. The red sequence readout will display 230 when ready. It will take approximately 2 minutes to reach operating temperature. ![]() With a number of these pre-drilled sticks, you can easily “march right down the line” vaporizing.Ĭonnect the vaporizer to your 110 volt power source. Slide the stick over the stem and you have an effective vapor block. Rather than closing the entrance with rags or whatever you choose and inserting the vaporizer in an open area, simply take a paint stick, cut it to the desired length and drill a ¼” hole in the center of the paint stick. You can use the ProVap in the front entrances as well if you wish. Should you wish to close the hole after vaporizing, a plastic golf tee works great and is easily removed for next time. The bees will readily propolize this small hole. The friction between the stem and drilled hole also holds the vaporizer in place during vaporization, which allows you time to prepare the next dose. Using a hole in the back of the hive and at this place (we believe) is easiest as it eliminates the nuisance of flying bees. You want the vapors to rise up through the frames throughout the hive. This hole is needed to accommodate the vaporizer stem. This vaporizer is most easily used from the back of the hive, where a small (¼”) hole is drilled in the back center of the ¾” rim of the bottom board that supports the bottom brood box. ![]() This sublimator (a more accurate term than vaporizer, but we’ll use the term vaporizer as most know it by this name) is strictly for use in a grounded 110 volt (3 prong) socket. This is the one you’ve waited for and now it’s here! Details and Instructions: The vaporizer is a 110 volt electrical appliance, 330 watts, 3.3 amps. Just plug it in to an inexpensive inverter, generator or use house current. Finally, a FAST Sideliner/Commercial Vaporizer at a Reasonable Price! We’re talking 20 seconds per hive! No wand to insert, just point and shoot! No guessing on dosage! No compressor or battery! ![]()
