I always wonder how one would measure the temperature? In the nano I feel it's becoming more of a binary, on/off type usage. My Air 2 claims certain temperature to 1° but who can you really trust? 
I was just praising the nano over on r/vaporents, and was moved to use it!
So nice!
Doing some heavy reading, 60 pages in half a day, that's pretty fast for me!

@UnevenPizza - there are inexpensive K-type thermocouple thermometers on Amazon (I bought this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XC6T8PX/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but there are some even less expensive.
The trick is going to be: 1) positioning the end of the thermocouple where your load will be located. This should not be too hard to do...just run the TC down the stem to where the load would be and; 2) having a regulated air source to draw air through the stem as like in real operation. This won't be that easy to do.
K-type TCs are the ones to use as they cover the temp range. But they also take some significant period of time to reach temp and settle so you ain't going to get it with just a lung draw. You will need someway to draw air through it, and hence over the TC, at a reasonable rate comparative to vaping.
You will see some claim to be instant read but that just means that the LCD display is instantly reading what the TC is sending, but it takes the TC a good while (minute or two?) to get up to temp when running at vape temps.
Doesn't seem worth the effort but if you are interested in doing so, this is how I see it.

What temp setting do you guys use? Does anyone stay at 6? I found the "best" results to be just above 6.5, but I'm pretty sure that's over 390F*.
*I'm doing some research on the whole "Stay under 390-295F for healthier vapors" issue. If anyone is or knows a chemist who could answer a few questions about toxin creation/release, send a PM my way.

Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing.
Right now I stay right around 6.25. But then, based on how dry my herb is, some loads get darker than others. I leave it at that same temp because I'm not concerned about slight differences in roasting. Also, this same nano used to run the same temp at 6.5 when I was using the original power cord. I switched cords because the dial was worn off. The new cord has my nano running a bit on the cooler side.
You find everyone has their own sweet spot. I do raise it up a half step when vaping concentrates. Sometimes I forget to lower it for the next session (cause I'm high) and I can taste the over-roasted herb instantly.

Just wondering. Someone told me a rumor that there was going to be a new battery powered enano coming with a wireless charging base. Has anyone heard of this? Kinda gave me a huge chub in front of everyone when I heard it and it won't go away. It's been more than 4 hours, please help.

Every time I change the dial setting I seem
I haven't heard that, it certainly would be a sea change in their product line. More third party manufactures for things like the electronics, new assembly process and an entry into a somewhat saturated portables market. However if it pops I will probably be willing to sell a kidney to try one. Where did you hear the news? I am sure if its on the web we can hunt up some more information.

It was actually in a dispensary I was in recently. They were talking about log vapes and I overheard then had to ask about it. I was hoping that it wasnt only a rumor but if no one here has heard about it then It's probably not true 
Damn wouldn't that be nice though. Put it down to charge while you're not takin a draw then take it around the house with you. Damn, about to pop through these pants again.

What number do you usually settle at for dry herb?
I go by feel mostly.
It has to feel CIVILIZED.
NANO'S feel right!

@EverythingsHazy I usually have mine set at 6,25 (or just anywhere between 6 and 6.5 for dry herb through water (small bubbler). For the straight dry stem I usually set it a bit lower, around 5 - 5.5.
This will of course vary depending on herb dryness/moisture content, draw speed, distance to the heater.
When I first got my nano I used others recommendations as a starting point. There is a lot of testing until you find out what works best for you/your desired use.
Recently I've been using the nano for massive rips through a beaker bong, so for me that means I have it a bit higher than usual (about 7) and inhale much more forcefully than with the bubbler, with which I take more "moderate" hits, that are shorter.
No problemo!
The nano is the first Vape I've owned (and seen) that can milk up my glass, with no special technique - just inhale and wham-bam face melt.
I guess nowadays there are more vapes (?) that have that capability, not sure. But the nano is so simple and for me, personally, the closest a vape has come to the "oldschool bong rip".
You may not be able to set it to a certain temp with 1° certainty, but you could never do that with classic b-loads using combustion anway.
For longer, more session type hits I've been using my Air 2. Mainly with the dry stem, haven't quite figured out the best way to do it through water (for that I actually think the OG solo may be better), but these things seem very specific/niche and I doubt anyone else would find that useful
) but I'm considering writing a detailed review soon.

Please remember that the actual temp resulting from a given rheostat setting will vary from one unit to another. Those rheostats are not precision devices and there are other very slight variances in construction that I can see possibly have a very small effect on temp-to-dial-position results.
I run right at 6.5 but anywhere around there is a good starting point then you need to use it a bit and find out what is your favorite setting(s) for you and your Nano.

Wow, thanks for the info!
In the future (the one where I am a millionaire playboy vape collector ;D ) I will definitely get something like that.
Are there any vape reviewers that test vapes in such a way?

I always like to Google the strains you mention @ataxian, seams you like mostly sativa?
I do also and my adhd/depression medication is c99 or any Thai land racer it seams
Something I can micro dosage and not feel baked basically + no munchies
Then off time I can go nuts on some hybrids

I love CANNABIS a lot!I always like to Google the strains you mention @ataxian, seams you like mostly sativa?

PHANTOM COOKIES = Loving this one.
GSC is higher in SATIVA mixture.
I love THAI.
I take this approach:
Pure SATIVA with COFFEE = MORNING's
HYBRID SATIVA leaning = AFTERNOON - 420
INDICA TV, Video's; MUSIC; SLEEP = EARLY EVENING until bed time.
I used my EVO however the NANO is working so well with my current set-up.
As a SURFER it was Cultural to have SATIVA before surf!
COLAS no seed or stems = CIVILIZED GIOS = grew it our self's! (no efford)
I must be a 8.757575645325 out of a 10 on a scale of MEDICATION
NANO can handle!

Been smoking herb since mid-80's
First rec only, mainly Mexican dirtweed/brick/schwag
Suddenly ill, wasting away (literally) late-80's
Doc said "Maybe smoke some weed?"
So med+rec for nearly 30 years?
@ataxian will forget more about cannabis than I can hope to learn? FACT.
Thank goodness we all have FC and Nanos + KINE to learn together.
When wifey retires & we return - settling in CIVILIZED society state.
I want that variety, accessibility, and community! Sounds like heaven.
Dang @Hjalmark sounds like you're doing well in the variety department these days! NICE!
Humbly asking for good vibes from the Nano fam if you can spare them, going under the knife tomorrow. I've had so many surgeries over the years, normally I wouldn't mind. But this time they're going inside my spinal cord, which has me a bit nervous because you know, what is the worst that could happen?!
I'm sure it'll all be fine, it's just reading the list of things that could go wrong freaks me out. A little.
EDIT: I too love CANNABIS a lot!

Your STATE/COUNTRY will be legal one day?
I started smoking joint's 1970 at a surf film!
The bathroom on the beach before and again when sitting?
Those were good'ole daz!
We had kind of a DARK AGE? (tide is turning)?
JACK HERER changed the LANDSCAPE of CANNABIS? (legally & MORALLY)
The NANO made it CIVILIZED!
CANNABIS is safer than MILK!

@pxl_jockey go off www.doctor.com and get some good rest for tomorrow!, I will be vaping bowls in your name all day tomorrow, good vapes a plenty as I will be sacrificing the bud to the gods
Hope we hear from you soon and following a raving success story!!
@ataxian sounds like my kind of menu for the day, I don't surfe in the ocean but do some surfing in the snow
Well stoned through the deep powder hills, with small trees and lots of jumps

Just manufactures, I believe. I don't believe anybody else has a regulated air flow or goes through all of that. Well, them and scientific labs, I'm sure.
My opinion only, temps on digital vapes are also just approximates. Probably pretty close, but just take them as relative temps and find the setting that works for you and you are good.
As in a bag vape? I have a Volcano and like it. Don't use it as much as my Nano or Evo, but don't want to sell it either.
I ran a load the other night with the reduced chamber with a dosing capsule of flower with 1.5 - 2 dabs in there and ran it hot to get the shatter going...ran it at top temp of 446.
Bag looked like a gallon of milk. Only get two bags and a wispy 3rd but it only takes two bags of that to blow me away.
Come to DC, my friend...we can play with vapes and compare notes.

Some friend's were making snowboard's in a surf shop taking them to MT HOOD - OREGON
PRO SURFER'S SNOWBOARDING before it was COMMERCIALIZED!
My friends from TAHOE, DENVER, SALT LAKE were better than most however we surfed bigger better waves.
Everybody got stoned out of their mind's.
We surfed and skied in the same day sometime's. (when we skied local) 2 hrs inland!
a NANO with an INVERT-ER + today's CANNABIS = CIVILIZED
@Baron23
I hope to do DC this spring?
You have a NANO?
That's cool you know what's up?
I never have had a bag?
I get so out there sometime with one load?
