E-Nano from Epickai
How does the E-Nano compare to the Heat Island? For that matter, how does it compare to the LSV? I think I'm going to get a new plug-in vape soon and had been thinking I'd just get an LSV but these little log vapes are being raved about to the point that I'm questioning that.
I have no doubt that this unit works and works well, but I've seen comments about it milking glass/hitting as well as an LSV or Cloud and I'd like to know if that's really accurate or if it's hyperbolic.

I went through the same thing you're going through. I didn't really look much into the HI - the mere fact that there's a long waiting list makes it pretty unappealing for me - I can barely wait to buy an e-nano.
The LSV and e-nano seems to be using similar ceramic heating elements (whereas HI is resistor based). The e-nano appears to have a much smaller bowl size than the LSV, is about half the size, and has better service/support. I also feel that the nano is more discrete - something you don't necessarily need to stash away like the LSV.
If you google LSV vs e-nano or LSV vs HI, a lot of FC threads will come up that you may find helpful.

Sorry the "HEAT ISLAND" I've never tried!
However I own a LSV and a NANO so I can tell you my experience since you asked the question:
LSV is a powerful Vaporizer.
Pairs very well with water.
NANO is way smaller and way easier to use if that's important?
It pairs well with water.
Flavor wise hands down the NANO taste better.
I love my LSV so these are my option's as I see it. Others may see it differently? The NANO is my plug in driver daily!
The LSV is my knoCk me oUT & make me useless device.
The NANO I can still function.
Their both great vapes and I'm glad to own both and would not think of selling any of them?
Flavor = NANO
COMA = LSV

I've never used an LSV but I can speak about the Cloud+ vs the E-Nano from my experiences.
In my opinion, from my experiences with it so far, no, it will not milk/hit/produce clouds like the Cloud. Using the Cloud+ I can milk up my big double chamber so thickly that I can't even see the top circ perc looking down. I can't do that with the E-Nano. But I still use the E-Nano far more due to it's size and ease of use and versatility (the Cloud can't touch the E-Nano's concentrate abilities imho).
The end result is the same, maybe I have to take 15-20% more pulls to reach a certain level and the visual of huge thick clouds isn't as exciting, but the ease of use and the bad ass oil performance make it my daily driver.
Also keep in mind in this comparison that the E-nano costs less than half.
More porn, playing around with this honeycomb tube until my custom bubbler gets finished!

Yeah! Fucking right man. That hit almost got me high!

Jack of all trades, master of none.
As far as the HI vs E-Nano, I find the vapor production to be similar between the two.
Ease of use is about the same although the E-Nano has a lip that catches the attachments and sets the distance between the heater and the herb. The HI has no lip so you control the heater to herb distance.
The Nano has a more restricted pull. The HI is fairly wide open, little resistance.
The Nano has a built in variable voltage whereas the HI has to have a vvps bought separately.
I love them both and would say that you are safe with either unit.
Just my two pennies. Have a good evening.

This was super helpful. Been going back & forth between the enano & LSV. I need to stay functional so this confirmed the Nano is the way to go.

Yes, my updated Solo of 2 months just crapped out on me. I can hear my new E Nano calling me now!This was super helpful. Been going back & forth between the enano & LSV. I need to stay functional so this confirmed the Nano is the way to go.

Does anybody have any suggestions at to what I could use to scrape out the leaf particles from the stem? I was using a metal knitting needle to scrape it and did it quite regularly until I noticed that my needle was smelling of metal which isn't so good.
If I did this regularly I found that I'd only need to actually iso the stem about once a month or perhaps even less. Barring glass, would stainless steel be a good material for it? There was a picture earlier in the thread of a wooden tool with a flat metal end, does anybody know what I'm talking about. I think it was a tool for painting or something.
Separately, do other people use that plastic testtube for the iso wash? Is it safe do you think?

I use this:
The flat part is about 2" long and has an edge to it. Plus its coated in Teflon which is extra tits. Works perfectly for what you are looking to do (although I mainly use it to clean my GonGs). You can get them at bonefolder.com however it is only available in a set of 4 different tools (see the ones above in the pic). Not bad since I use 3 out of the 4 on the regular. Kinda spendy though.

Great work dude! I'm lovin it
I see Vimeo's encoding stepped all over your video too (the artifacts), I think it's slow motion they have a problem with.

Wow, everyone is having Nano fun! I just got some 316L steel wool and did my first qwiso convection dabs with my setting 10 nano. Incredible, endless blue clouds from the tiniest splash of hash! Yum! I should highlight this is my first ever dab of any kind!

Sweet. The vids are rollin in!
I love to see people's set-ups and pieces etc.
One day all these videos will be found on ancient abandoned servers and digital archaeologists will carefully restore the data in anticipation of new, possibly profound, sociological discoveries about their ancestors only to find it's just us sitting around filming ourselves toking... and in slow motion! ahahha I love that thought.

It'll be my contemporaries whose job it is to document these videos. God speed to them! hahaha really hoping Andy gets the dimmer/gong out to me soon, my Luke Wilson bubbler turns out has just got a wrinkle from a bad weld, it is airtight and has apparently been there from the start!
Thus, my newly back-in-rotation Luke Wilson piece plus the honeycomb to 10 arm tree bubbler that just arrived yesterday from @canj00digit? (cheers again mate! ) just waiting to have me nano them silly!
Am I right that depending on herb type/density/moisture, you can more or less find a setting between 7 and 8.5 that will reliably extract the herb but never accidentally combust? If so, I look very much forward to this! I don't trust myself fiddling with temperatures after a few bowls lol

That has been my experience so far. In addition to the variables you mentioned, adjusting the distance between the heater and the material can also have a major impact on how different temperatures behave.
Lately I like to have the surface of my material quite close to the heater screen without actually touching it, and as a result my temperature range has skewed down slightly to about 6.8 - 7.5. I have definitely taken it up to 8.5 plenty of times without combustion, but I always adjust my technique accordingly. Usually I prefer to stretch my sessions out a bit, because I enjoy it so much. And to be sure, I do like my ABV good and dark, as fully extracted as I can get it within reason. Especially before bed.
The more I think about it, it's just really hard to quantify a proper technique, because it is a balance of so many variables which are all really difficult to measure. I would liken it to driving a manual transmission. You don't necessarily need to know exactly how the transmission works in order to drive the car exceptionally well -- you just sort of learn to do it by feel. The Nano is like that. It's like a sports car.
My short answer to your question is: Yes, I believe you are right and you will find it really easy to figure out. The Nano is very intuitive because of its simplicity. I hope you get your dimmer soon! Glad to hear your Luke Wilson piece is back in effect.
