Fused quartz slide on cover
These are complex, precision, hand-made parts. They are all checked for fit. Appearance may vary.
This is a nice accessory addition to your UTH. Looks nice, and creates a slightly taller enclosed area around the crucible which contains the heat a little better. I personally have not dropped or lowered temps by using this top, rather I like that it makes the work area increased or hotter up higher on the barrel, which is less surface that's cold for oils to condense onto. It is a nice thickness of quartz, it does not fit tightly, it's a loose fit that it just rests on top. But it's fine for a safe and still dab station. I have to be a little more careful putting the banger in and out, as the quartz on quartz sound kinda rattles or unnerves me. It's kinda like that game growing up, Operation. With the tweezers and bones you try and pull out of a body on the table without setting off the buzzer. Kinda like that, lift up and down carefully and you're good. It's worth the extra carefulness to have to handle it intentionally, but so far the increased improved thermaldynamic properties is noticeable quickly in a few dabs, the difference I mean. And if you are someone searching for the best dabs possible, you try and get any extra +__% of performance you can. This top just allows just that, to refine an improve an already good product. The 1.1 was a milestone in improvement. Like next year's flagship drop type features.
This thing is awesome! Directs the heat perfectly and makes the top of the slurper hit more evenly. 10/10 would recommend nothing beats the dnail paired with this
I wasn't sure if I needed this until I got it and it made my whole experience with the heater. This helped me insulate heat away from my face and direct it up

The Pro: It does enhance the usability and experience of the Universal Heater, it is not just a deco top. It helps retain the heat in the tunnel and ultimately the nail, I have been able to lower the set temp on my PID an additional 10-20° to achieve the same result as without the top. Also, if you want to ‘hang’ a nail from the heater without it being attached to a rig, I would absolutely recommend the top. I am personally okay with hanging my own nails from it with the top on, but I wouldn’t do so without. The Con: It is a buck, on top of (figuratively and literally) the UH. To be fair it is a chunk of quartz and I’m sure it’s not simple to craft. IMHO, if you only intend to heat nails that are connected to a rig and tend to be cost conscious, you can certainly get everything you need without the topper. If you intend to hang nails with any frequency from the heater, or you can afford the extra expense, it is a worthwhile piece that is functional.
