I only have a 2inch man, and I regret it every single run lol for quality neutral I can only take off around 600ish ml an hr otherwise my abv drops and I get smearing. So for a 45l charge of tpw with heatup time and equalisation its 8-9 hrs. With a good length 3inch you'd be looking at over 1l an hr :handgestures-thumbupleft:
