GlueBee69 and Jacked:
Way back when, ware Ibee pulled off regular shorter timed HI/RP rxns, the guiding ratio was the one jacked points out above. Never had a problem with a single one. It helped having LG RP and I
2.
Plus, 1oz LG RP afforded many extra runs before it fizzled out primarily because of the cleanliness of the feedstock at the time.
On average he'd get 4 runs before it lost it's potency. Of course those runs were incrimentally smaller each run due to the rp that was used up. To the point that extra fresh was added to the greyish RP in the last run.
Dipping into a sack for precursors sure was sweet compared to all that scraping and tinc messes!
In the begining of the LWR trials...those ratio's weren't changed until problems were encountered in the longer rxns.
Mainly the first problem encountered was drying out which led to the increase in dh
2o. After that it was noted that HI wasn't strong enough to completely reduce the pfed...then UP went the I
2, but the RP stayed the same for fear of flask fire...(once you've fried a rxn from excess RP you learn quick not to be too heavy handed
)...then came the ole
.
If it's wet...it won't get hot enough to fry anything and so came the optimal realization that had been handed down from those saying "slow/controlled" is more favorable than the hotter
uncontrollable ones.
So UP went the RP ratio as well!
As geez points out...any unused RP is recovered post-rxn so why sell yourself short by using .06 RP and coming up with unreacted.
This evened out to the optimal LWR ratio that guarantees putting bees through the window of success.
This proved to be the case time and again.
So any confusion in ratio around here can be directly blamed on Ibee and Geez!
The P/P should be carried out with the Jacked ratio! Success will be had!
The LWR should be carried out with either the Geez ratio or the Wareami ratio! Success will be had also!
We agree to disagree because they both work and we have fun giving each other a
from time to time
