Discontinued VapeXhaleLabs Presents: The Cloud

weedemon · May 12, 2011

oh damn guys. i want this vape so bad. i know i said it before but i'm saying it again

showing it to all my friends too they are mostly blown away with how cool it is/the actual performance we re seeing from the videos and written reviews.

im glad i have other options to keep me busy in the mean time, but seriously...

What is the approximate minimum and maximum range of the VXC? I know there's a bunch of variable and this is probably mentioned elsewhere. I'm hoping it's low enough to nicely vape hops, which is like 280F.

That's probably still tbd, as mine runs hot due to sensor location.

Hey SM, did you get my e-mail checking on pre-order status?

sunsett70 · May 12, 2011

reading until page 78, n wanted to ask before i forget so excuse me if the issue has been brought up before.

stonemonkey55,

just wondering what kind of product the cloud is marketed as? would like to know as some countries may have more stringent custom requirements, and i really don't want to attract too much attention. like the DBV 'cover' is that it's sold as an aromatheraphy/herbal diffuser set, especially with the ashtray thing. is there some kinda 'cover' story that the cloud can use, like maybe it's a fancy 'desk-light' or something?

also, i have never held a hydra glass piece before, n the thought of the hydratree being 'handled' during transportation, creates this 'jangling' image in my head. i'm afraid that not every ground crew/transport personnel will go fragile on the tube. do you think transport of tree tubes so fragile-like will be an issue, especially for international markets?

p/s- sm, this is a great american enterprise, good luck on your manufacturing adventure!

We market it as an aromatherapy device as well! Regarding transportation, I am happy to unveil the packaging that we put together for this fine vape. The package can double as storage or for transportation as well. The flaps have magnets in them so when you close it, it will stay shut. I hope you guys like it!

Of course your packaging is the sexiest I have ever seen, all I can do now is dream of the day I tear into a box and find this beauty inside. Normally I am not a sucker for packaging, but I am drooling.

Is that a stand I see on the joint of the vertigo hydratree? I can't remember if you confirmed whether or not the hydratubes would come with one...

elixsor · May 12, 2011

Can someone confirm the most recent estimated release date was hopefully sometime in Julyish?

CombustionJunction · May 12, 2011

Wow! Even the damn packaging makes me wanna buy one of these!!!

Wow, that packaging looks incredible. I love it. Reminds me of a retro shoebox

Can't wait for the cloud! I hope I can get it by my birthday, (August 6th)

Pretty Please!?

moodswing · May 12, 2011

awesome packaging!

i was just contemplating the other week what i would have to buy to store the cloud in and now it doesnt look like i need to buy anything additional.
good lookin out SM

ididit · May 12, 2011

Hey SM, that foam insert doesn't happen to fit inside the hard shell of a particular Pelican model does it?

Either way, absolutely fantastic packaging by the looks of things!

Wow! What is the extra spot bellow the hydratube? A stand? This will make travel easy.

stonemonkey55 · May 12, 2011

Thanks for all the kinds words, I've been working feverishly on the packaging while PowerNerd is working on the Cloud. Initially, we were going to make Pelican like cases for the Cloud for people that wanted to spend the extra money to protect their investment. After some consideration, we decided that we wanted to be a "greener" company and one of the most wasteful things to the environment is people throwing away the packaging for their goods.

Based on the initial feedback, I do feel like the Cloud has been doing everything I said that it would do so I figured I might as well put my efforts into something that is often over looked in our industry. The packaging should double as a storage and transportation case and hopefully something people would be proud to display. I'm pretty stoked at the way it came out, especially the built in magnets to keep the box shut as an added bonus.

I am happy to say that I have convinced management to throw in HydraTube stands into each package! The beta testing period has been crucial in ensuring that we provide the best user experience possible. As always, I realize that you guys have many choices to choose from in the vaporizer market, we are grateful to have such enthusiastic, yet patient fans. I'm committed to making the best vape on the market, not because I want to dominate the market, but because I want the best vape for my own personal use. Thanks again for the patience, I can see the finish line!

This is the old hydratree correct?

jimbo · May 12, 2011

The packaging looks very nice and getting a stand for the hydratube is awesome!
This just keeps getting better and better

Bravissimo :cool:

abo27495 · May 13, 2011

I was wondering what the pre-order price of the vxc brand hydratree package is and if the tree is made by luke wilson. I love the recessed joint on it.

RussyRoo · May 13, 2011

Aaahhh even the packaging is sick!! Guess I should have expected this by now :lol:

Keep up the good work guys!!

P.S. - "VapeXhale fan page likes your wall post" - Made my week :lol:

P.P.S. - Pappy I have never enjoyed watching someone get high as much as I enjoy watching you. Keep the videos coming, and keep dancing :ko:

ACE OF VAPE · May 13, 2011

Kudos to the package designer. It's awesome.

sunsett70 · May 13, 2011

stonemonkey55, very nice package! i myself like many cannot wait, but have a tinge of sadness in my heart for some loyal vaporizers that could be 'shunted aside' due to the arrival of the vxc.

anyway, i wanted to ask if any beta testers used other herbs/mixture with the vxc? yeah, there will be some 'conservative users' of mj or some users who mixed the stuff; some use those mint/oregano/lemon balm etc and i noticed that damiana is a wonderful mixer which seems to add to the vapor effect on my dbv. would be nice to read a review of performance if anyone used a mixed bowl.

sm55, i know you've mentioned the safety aspects of the vxc before but i am wondering how much water you think the vxc can take before it becomes 'dangerous'? i think with the size of hits in the videos, i may be one of many to accidentally break/drop/destroy the hydratube and with the water & electricity so close, i'd rather not take anything for granted.

The packaging is indeed stunning, but it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who has followed the development of the Cloud in this thread.

As far as the water risk is concerned, see Isn't it dangerous to suspend water in glass over electronics?

hereatlast · May 13, 2011

Everything looking good, packaging (and stand) seem to be the icing on the cake. :cool:

Seems like quite a bit of versatility offered in the ELB's design. I could see myself with an excessively large load at a low temperature for a few hours at a time. Sounds tasty.

Random question: any possibility of letting us know how many employees VXL has? I know Robot/Powernerd3000/SM are the foundation, but curious to how many more minds are internal to this project?

Carbon · May 13, 2011

I saw you'll be at a dispensary in San Francisco soon. Coming to any SoCal locations by chance?

waveyvapes · May 14, 2011

Hey Stone Monkey:

I preordered the VXC w/ the cheaper of the two tree-style hydratubes. My question is: will it have a recessed joint or a protruding joint?

protruding
