Mods thanks for moving the post by me and zomger to the correct thread. Unless I was hallucinating that it was originally asked in the INH thread but thanks anyhow.

To all the old time forum members, is there a list of stuff we should write with a review or did I cover it? I do like list form even though it isn't professional it is much easier to read. I would prefer to follow a format.

I don't understand why you posted this here since the post you are referring to is in the DV thread. I suppose I should have put it in both oh well.

O.o this is the DV thread...?
Haha, my intent wasn't to bash your comparison. I thought it was pretty accurate in most regards (from what I've read anyways.) Just some over sights that I decided to bring to attention. Which you said if you missed anything to let you know, so I was. :)

Also, has anyone else noticed while using the DV on the charger it's heating up time is nearly cut in half. I counted like 25 seconds from 70F to 375F as opposed to ~45+ seconds. Don't think it's been brought up in this thread yet.

Edit: Ahhh, I think I know what happened.. maybe. Dreamer I believe your original post was moved here and I responded to it in this thread, which is why you were confused. Not sure though, but last night when I responded it was in the DV thread. Pretty sure anyways.

I didn't think you were bashing me and no they were both in the INH thread but I did have some abv oil. That is why your post is after mine now.

Damn I forgot warm up time too...that is why I need a list. Warm up time sucks to me it is to long to INH wins on that too but for me 30 seconds is a lot. I never noticed the difference plugged in cause then I am home and don't care as much.

Edit: this is a comparison I was asked to do between the INH and the DV
@vorrange, you asked for it you got it. I will just go over the major points.
Portability tie
weight tie
ease of use INH by a long shot
Battery life I never had an issue with either
Design for loading and unloading INH by a lot...hate the lid on the DV
Draw edge goes to DV although they are both really good...DV has to have a clean top screen
Medical application I give the edge to the DV...I suppose cause of the digital temp I get my meds a ............bit better
Loading and unloading INH hands down
Holding the unit INH DV gets real hot on one side
Stealth kind of a toss up but I give the edge to INH
Edit: forgot one...efficiency of using your herb...DV cause of meds for me but INH for full .......extraction. I can easily run my DV ABV in the INH and get way more.

If I missed anything let me know. Of course this is all my humble opinion.

Edit I just noticed that I wrote loading and unloading twice but am leaving it cause we all know it is a pain.

Thanks Dreamerr, i hope you're not the only one. :D

I have been wondering about how these two compare, i decided to give up my DV for a Solo, the jury is still out regarding the decision. It was a strategic decision because there was not something that i disliked about the DV.

Comparing it with the Solo, the DV is way more portable and discreet. The flavourfull hits are less than with the Solo (if you remove the stem between every couple of hits), but the ABV is pretty similar between both and i don't think i would have extracted much more with the DV. I think i would because, first there is a tiny bit more conduction going on IMO, and because of the obvious reason of being able to get higher temps.

Cloud-wise, the Solo wins, although that can be bad if you want discretion. Battery i haven't had a chance to really compare, but it seems the Solo has a slight edge (1-2 sessions more).

Construction wise, i found the Solo to have a more robust and quality feeling in the materials used although the DV because of the materials used might be more resistant to accidents.

All in all, i think the DV is more well rounded and a better alternative if you need more discretion and portability.

I am getting the solo either Tues or Wed depending if I have to sign. I really think between the three the INH is the best extractor. I never got as dark ABV with the DV and have seen the solo ABV but without using it I can't really say. I just think med application was a bit better with the DV. We will see about the med app with the solo and the rest of course.

Next up is the ssv. You all are making me want to try them all lol.

In theory, the best extractor should leave MJ greenish without vapour (not smoke!), no matter how higher the temp, like you see in the cloud or the vhw.

I can say that, from my experience, for the same level of extraction, there are differences in colour between each vaporizer. Usually, more convection and less conduction, translates in lighter ABV for the same extraction level. I dunno if this is the case in the INH, but for example, on my buddha, i can extract so well that i can get no more vapour and the abv is still green, and if i rise the temp there is still no vapour formation, but the abv gets darker.

What do you mean by "med application"?

EDIT: SSV is a good choice, but i would get a log first. Only two reasons for it, because the SSV is so popular because it's that good, 1-much less hassle (no whip, glass wand) and 2-it is VERY easy to use too much.

Wow I never came to a point where I don't get any more vapor hmmmmmmm. I would love to learn more about this if you can point me in the right direction. My ABV is always dark and I was told if it is light there is more to get out of it. I have also heard what you said at some point no more vapor. As I said I have never had that happen. I will vape in the DV today and see if I can get the vape to stop. I may have to run it three times with gross taste by then. I don't like high high temps cause they hurt my throat. I don't know if you saw my posts about coughing but I can't cough cause I can get very injured so I have to be careful.

I find that for my medical needs for example spasms smoking works best but I don't smoke anymore. The DV to me did a better job on spasms then the INH. For whatever reason the DV also hits me faster for other issues. I am not going to go through my thousand issues in public but I think you got it now. I am sure this is different with everyone. It may have to do with convection vs conduction or maybe the temp levels. I have know idea but if you do enlighten me.

Sometimes i have to do two sessions to extract all of hit, that happens in the Solo as well. Don't know if it is because i take too long pauses between hits, i don't think it is more than 10sec between hits.

It is a little difficult to know the reason why the DV did a better job on spasms than the INH. Different temperatures allow for different compounds to be released, if you start low and slowly bring it up, there will most likely be a more efficient extraction of the THC compounds without them being transformed into CBN/CBD. With the DV this is more difficult since the bowl is metal and gets very hot, allowing for more conduction ocurring, this conduction will cause an earlier transformation of THC into CBN and CBDs, giving you more medicinal properties and less euphoria from THC. This is problably why people say switching vapes allows for a bigger high all of the sudden, the compound release profile changes, because of the vape itself and because of the difference in temperature increases.

Mine didn't come with the dancing girl. I'll be sending them an email to complain.
:nod:

That could be a good thing.

Even if you don't get some social disease from the adventure, I'm thinking the DV is a lot easier to explain to the wife than the babe?

This is embarassing
Definitely embarrassing for the company as an ad. Just plain stupid. I wasn't embarrassed though. She wasn't demonstating any features, so I was just waiting for her to strip. Hey DaVinci, I'd take that vid down before you lose sales. :lol:

It seems they are trying to convey that its not wierd to dance with a DV in your hand, but in a very amateur way.

I don't care how vaked you are...do you really want that dancing girl? That was the dumbest thing I have seen in a while and you know I see a lot of dumb things.

You sure that isn't just a parody...please don't tell me it is a real official video please please....

I made it like 7 seconds in, couldn't take it anymore :(

I'd rather have some stoner dude tell me to rubber band my LB so I don't "lose a load" in my pants than have to see those 7 seconds again :( At least the first guy was funny...

Still, advertisements should only serve to introduce you to the product itself.

This one is way way better.


It's like a beer commercial except... with stickier stuff... the future is here :bowdown:

Lurking here for some months. First post…here it comes…FWIW.

I bought a new DaVinci the end of June from puffitup.com I decided on it after reading ALL of this thread (then up to pg.35).

I initially had 3 problems. The unit arrived with a low serial number (in the 1,000s). Never vaping anything in the unit other than just air, it was definitely showing the off-gassing problem. I sent it back to Organicix LLC (The DaVinci folks) and they sent me a new unit in 6,xxx serial number range before receiving the unit I returned.

No off-gassing with the new one. It has been my daily driver since late July. I do have a Volcano clone/knock-off for social occasions, but the DaVinci has been working great for toasting single bowls wherever/whenever I need for the last 3 months. I can completely toast 6 bowls-ful on a single charge. Taste is OK, if only every hit tasted as sweet as the first…

2nd problem: An internet order to Organicix for screens, brushes, and mouthpieces that didn’t arrive complete. Organicix eventually made both of those right. The 3rd problem was toasting hash/kief. I’ve found that one of the empty cans must be used and that +420F is a good temp to do it right ;) Once +420F is attained I usually wait a minute or so for the can to heat-up. If I can smell what’s in the can, then it’s ready. Problem solved.

There is little I don’t like about the DaVinci. An easily removed hinge-pin or a slide-pin on the chamber door hinge would be a BIG improvement for accessibility to the chamber for cleaning and loading.

I have an A1000XXX if that is the number. There is nothing on the unit that was one of the numbers on the box. It has no mechanical taste anymore although it did looooooooooooooooong ago. I bought it right when it came out.

I'd agree if the DV were more a party scene vape that should be the commercial for it. However it (to me) is lack luster at best with more than two...no I think they had it right with the dancing girl.. Okay well one piece of clothing anyway from right at least ;)
You guys know what I mean, right? It's pants! Why doesn't she have pants??

I am sure you would all like it if she was naked and no vape necessary ;). I don't think any vape is a party vape and always laugh when I see you all party with one. The only ones I can see being a party one is balloon ones but that is just my opinion. It made me mad when they left it on green sitting on the table.
