Checked out the vid about 5 times trying to figure out where exactly the herb chamber is ..... waiting for the picture, im very inquisitive to know where exactly the herb sits ?stonemonkey55 said:
Im guessing the chamber is in the female wand end part of the hydra tube ?

Thinking about the mechanics of it My guess would be that the herb goes in the male portion of the GonG joint attached to the cloud when used with the hydra tubes.audiodelic said:
Something like this maybe?
(excuse the sketch)
Seems like a very solid design if thats how it in fact works (just guessing on my part). The only thing I would be curious about is how hard it is to clean the bowl and remove the screens. I know with my SSV and PD usage its usually easiest to blow air through backwards while the finished load is still hot...but not sure how that would work in the cloud if my assumptions are correct.

The heating element surrounds the glass in base so I would imagine there is no way water could even touch any electronic portion of the cloud.Willeh said:

hey thanks for the diagram now i understand much better and it actually looks quite badass if that is the actual design with two screens and all.ILoveRadiohead! said:
@stonemonkey : please confirm that the bowl is like described in the diagram

Remeber I'm just speculating based on the pics and vid shown so far.audiodelic said:
Thats the other though I had as well. Though from the youtube vid it would be probably housed inside the case.B. said:
Maybe functions like this?
@willeh - the electronics are completely separated from the vapor path, so from that perspective, the electronics are safe. With that said, I would HIGHLY advise anyone from blowing into the HydraTube. Hopefully common sense will prevail when using the Cloud and in our instructions, it will be abundantly clear that the HydraTube is for inhaling not blowing. 
@ ILoveRadiohead! - You finished two drawings before I even got to mine. Think of the Cloud as housing a recessed male conical GonG joint that you can drop the bowl on top of. The bowl is essentially a female to male GonG adapter that utilizes two screens to hold the herb in place so that you can use it right side up, or upside down.
The female portion of the bowl that is attached to the male joint that is recessed in the Cloud, will feature a mechanism that allows that connection to be "stickier" than the connection from the bowl to the Cloud so you can safely lift your HydraTube off of the Cloud without worrying about the bowl coming off.
Hope this helps you visualize the bowl.

wow.. thanks for the pic SM. Great drawing/explanation.
this thing looks amazing, and my interest in it goes up each time something new is revealed about it... Never been excited over a vape as much as I have with this one.

Thanks for the official diagram SM 
I see how it will be easy for you to eventually offer "party" and "solo" sized bowls now as well.
How hard is it (or easy ) to remove one of the screens? Is one of them meant to be more permanent?

i like your style sunshine, i like it a lot. the hydratubes look pretty special too, like a musket thats for vaporisers instead of hot knives. gonna have to save up my pennies for the release date, with a steady hand i think i could make it work with the trusty old extremen

I just put myself on the alerts list and thought I would drop by and check out this thread.
It's great that we are getting more information on this thing(slowly). I can't wait to see this thing in person.
I thought I saw earlier in this thread that there are multiple size bowls for this vape. How small is the single hitter style bowl?

Looks like just the standard bowl for now, the other sized bowls are probably not even in production yet but will follow some time after the initial release.stonemonkey55 said:

thanks for that diagram stonemonkey, design looks sweet and very versatile.
now i can see how different bowls are a compatible with this vape, i will definitely need the single hitter bowl precisely for using pressed hash or for that matter any kind of hash as it would be more concentraation of thc and also expensive, we would need to use way less hashish than a standard sized bowl can hold to use effectively and efficiently so the conservation/single hitter bowl can make that a reality.
cant wait for 220v model to release , im buying one for sure once the different size bowls come out and initial reviews are in.

Quomist, if you notice, the Cloud is actually thinner on one side exactly for these situations. I can't guarantee it will work on all stemless tubes, but it should work on almost all of them unless the joint is so close to the tube where there is very little room for anything other than the slide.quomist said:

The device seems really bulky... I was hoping for more of a handheld device that was about 3-4 inches in length and a lot more slender. Perhaps I am being unrealistic, but it looks like it would be a pain to use on small glass and smaller bubblers.quomist said:
I think I will try to build my own vaporizer to fit my preferences over the summer after seeing how easy it was with the Pandora...
Any news on the portable device or is it just on the drawing boards at the moment?
@aero18 - I'm sorry to hear that you think the Cloud is bulky, you can always purchase a Herborizer if you are looking for something smaller. The reason the Cloud is the size that it is, is because:
* We separated the electronics from the air path, this required a separate chamber
* We use a very specific glass tube that allows us to extend the air path within the unit to ensure consistent vaporization temperature that just couldn't be duplicated in a device 3 inches tall.
* The Cloud was specifically designed for the HydraTubes, the face that it works with other glass pieces is icing on the cake. With a HydraTube sitting on top of the Cloud, we found that the weight, height, and ergonomics feels just *right*
I hope that gives you a fundamental understanding of why the VX Cloud was designed the way it is.
Onto you next question.... I've been instructed to stop speaking about the portable as our main focus in on the Cloud. What I can say is that it should be another evolutionary jump in what we know as portables today.

What SM55 failed to mention is that we are sending him out on a top secret mission to bring in one more world famous glass blower into the VXC Above the Cloud team.
We have told him to not come back until he gets the agreement signed.
We should expect to hear back from him early next week with good news, or we don't want to hear from SM55 at all (just kidding, lighten up ok?)
Stay tuned, when (not if) SM55 comes back with the good news, I am sure it is GUARANTEED to knock everyone's socks off.
SM55 - do NOT let down the VX team and the vaporizing community!
