What I don’t like about the chamber reducer is that the herb ends up on the sides of the bowl and it gets annoying to clean when you are still not finished

Damn I really have my mind set on the new volcano but the cheapest I've found in Canada so far is $850. Anyone seen any better deals for canada?
I got the mighty less than a year ago but I've been really annoyed with the battery on it as I'm a heavy medicinal vaper. I find that I have to charge at least once halfway through the day.
How is this device for mostly solo? I've watched Troy's stream etc and it made me want it more.

I use it for solo and it is a major league hitter. Imagine a mighty x 5. More weed, more surface area, banging heating and delivery system. One volcano bowl will last a long while for us medicinal guys.
$594 from vapor.com with the vape critics code vapenow15

So you have to replace the tubing every two weeks?!Just got mine yesterday! First impressions:y
- Technically the manual says you’re supposed to completely replace the Tube after two weeks
Hoping I can get a cheap tube from Home Depot or something. The tube material is very firm and not sticky, which is nice.
- Heat up time is VERY quick.
That seems a bit environmentally wasteful, to say the least.
Is there a way to clean the tubing. Also how much do they want for it?
This wasn't mentioned in any of the reviews btw, even the lengthy ones

i am pretty sure that you don´t have to replace the tubing every two weeks...maybe when you vape 24h a day lol
i use one on my Extreme Q for over a year now and it is still fine. i soak it in iso for a short time and let warm water run through it to clean it.
and you don´t have to buy a Storz Bickel tube, you can get tubes fairly cheap and use them just like the one that came with the Volcano.
there are many better tubes out there than the ones that are included with the vaporizers, get an industrial tube which is heatproof and much thicker/firmer than the thin and sticky ones and you are fine for a long time.

I know that's a lot of money. Maybe if you guys have a holiday soon. It's awesome for a solo session. If you are into bags, two full bags and the herb is nice and dry.
That’s just to be hygienic for print. I’ve let tubing go for a long while then just toss them for new. I guess it depends on usage.

It's long been recommended to replace whip tubing regularly and not clean it (though many do still try to clean). Tubing with its properties doesn't clean like glass and SS. How clean is clean is a personal preference as well. One person's clean is another's dirty.
So how often and much you replace tubing is dependent on personal preferences. I like clean flavors and clean gear so I picked up an evape that uses a glass pathway (with SS basket) for easy and full cleaning, which I do every 3 days of use or so, rather than using whips which absorb contaminants and flavors and thus require regular replacement. @ShayWhiteGrow has very different expectations and tolerances as he mentioned; everyone is different
. Think about what you want and prefer... then find what works for you . If going with whips I'd recommend regular replacement; just figure out what works best for you - the cleaner the better, it's worth it 
.Big vape night here, sorry for the edits

Where did you see it for $850?
Is this sound normal? I rock my Volcano Hybrid back and forth and I can hear something banging around inside.

I’m pretty sure my Crafty manual said to replace the cooling unit every 25 uses.

haha, as soon as I heard it I knew it!I’m pretty sure my Crafty manual said to replace the cooling unit every 25 uses.

Been using mine a lot since getting it and I definitely like it way more than my old EQ. My biggest gripe currently is its real annoying when the 2 metal connections stick together forcing you to either heat it up a little or pull it apart flinging shit everywhere. I know its a minor inconvenience that I can fix just by being anal about cleaning it but I'm impatient and have flung ABV everywhere more than I would like to admit lol.
Other than that I am pretty impressed with it so far. The heat up time is perfect so its pretty much replaced my plenty. I also feel like it gets me a lot higher than the plenty. Also the taste is a lot better than I expected, while its not quite as good as the plenty its pretty much on par with the mighty like 420vapezone said.
The best thing for me, comparing this to the EQ was that the second bag on the EQ always tastes like straight popcorn where as the second bag on the volcano is actually tasty. The popcorn flavor from the EQ really made me weary about this vape but it never has that popcorn taste. Even the third bag, while it has little to no vapor still doesn't have that popcorn flavor.

That just happened...
That’s normal to be honest. It’s the air pump. It’s due to the way it’s mounted inside.

There is the "Display on cooling" option which controls whether the temperature displays while the heat is off but the Hybrid is still cooling. It's not a full power down but at least it shuts off the display.
You can use the concentrate pad as a makeshift chamber reducer. Just place it on top of the small amount you load. Extraction tends to work better with a thin and tall collum versus a wide and short one but it's worth experimenting.

I don't guys, a $700 vape is gunna need better flavor than a mighty or plenty (which cost half as much) is my thought? Features look good, but vaping is for taste, especially for Cadillac vapes?

thx for the impressions, sounds great. i am also an EQ user but it doesn´t get me really medicated anymore, i think i am too used to it by now.
i also own a Mighty for portability but frankly don´t use it so much. looking really forward to the Hybrid.
was shipped today, so i should receive it this week. i´ve already sold my Plenty and hope that the Volcano will be my new main daily driver.
How is the device when using the tube? i think i want to use the tube more than the bags...
