I am seriously considering buying a glass bat VG very soon, I need something more portable, but had a couple of questions for those who have gone before me.

I have been using the Sherlock for years, and when using it, I put the spice right in the middle of the screen, which is facing upwards, any spice which falls to the side mostly does not vape, but the opening on the bat does not curve up, does one have to hold the pipe straight up, or what is the difference if any?

Also, I use a screen/pad for a volcano vaporizer that I cut to fit on my Sherlock, it is perfect, works the best. When I tried even 10 regular screens, the spice still just fell right through. Would I be able to cut to fit a volcano vaporizer pad on the bat as well?

Any other differences, similarities, suggestions?

I appreciate it.

Peace
