Discontinued Inhalater INH05/5S/6

@Vape Dr. -- How's the hot vapor compare to the PNPro? These units are similar in design and I found the PNPro to be the hottest vape I've had and, like you, only used its higher settings with water.

Why do we have two temps above 455? Was that for using concentrates?

I thought the glass capsules were abandoned. Or did I miss something? I often miss somethings.

:peace:
I for one was hoping that was just a knee jerk reaction to all of us freaking out over the melting plastic scare.... along with the idea of lower the max temp again...... I was so hoping neither of those potential short term remedies were going to actually be pursued.... fingers are crossed...

I find the addition of glass to the XP is a huge plus as it not only improves the taste it helps to even out the heat distribution, which in turn improves everything.... and the load is even a bit less +++

I almost want to say I think the 05 operates better with the polymide cap {designed optimal heat transfer} were as the additional thickness of the glass cap makes things a bit more difficult.... more testing is required...so I'm not quite settled on it just yet.....


Yes.....it requires the sandwich method....but it works very well....it just keeps going & going...

@stickstones, I would say the vapor is warmer on the inhalater.
That being said, drilling a hole in the side of the capsule making it an "air" capsule significantly helped.
I would venture to guess the "aero" capsules would cool it down further, having a larger adjustable air opening.

@Old School I am thinking they might have had some issues with the specs of the glass capsules. That's what everyone (myself included) is excited about. Hopefully they will get the glass capsules situation fixed and maybe we'll see them in the future! Let's hope!

Seriously? I've never come close to combustion on 9, let alone 8 or 7. These seem high, based on my experience. Perhaps these are the temps on the melting plastic units...I really don't think I'm getting temps anywhere near this high.

Remember people. The inhalater needs to be that hot to maintain temp. You understanding that when pulling through the vape you are cooling it right? So even though it is listed as those temps I would assume they are the way they are because when pulling it will cool it down to the correct temp.

Yeah, we get that. There's still no way, on my unit, that 9 is over 500 degrees. Like zero chance. The heating element sits right around the capsule chamber. 500 plus would cause combustion. You'd be hard pressed not to combust at that temp, and I don't even get charring. Not one tiny bit.

I suspect the original temp chart is correct, and the one Greg gave Dr Vape is arbitrarily tweaked to cover those faulty units that are running too hot and melting plastic. But for my unit? Not even close.

I was unsure as to which temp readings were accurate as well. I agree with @mitchgo61 I think they are a closer to the manual temps. I talked to Greg and he is looking into it for exact temperature readings.

Pharmacor is testing the units as we speak to get an exact temperature reading off several units.

Hopefully we'll know for sure soon!
 
I really hope they don't lower it anymore because I don't want to have to dick around anymore. I had the 04 and a few xp's and was just fed up. I thought this was going to be it! I think I'm still going to get one just for the stealthiness.

That's inaccurate. Inhaling could cool the heat exchanger, but it varies on draw speed. They couldn't possibly know how much to over compensate given different draw speeds. They are not truly getting to 500 degrees in the bud chamber or it would no longer be a vape but a smoking device instead.

OK so I've put my INH05 through the ringer for the last week and I must say I'm very impressed. :clap:The heat up time is super quick and now I can change the battery easily so charging with my Cera charger actually is a lot faster then plugging the unit in. I like the high temps. It definitely takes a bit to get used to draw technique wise but I can vape on 9 with no issues of charring or burning. I start out at about 6.5 then up to 7, 8, 9 then back down to 7 to finish and I always let the auto shut off take me out of my session and I've been getting 6 to 7 bowls with the high temps which is amazing battery life for a portable. :tup: I love this with my PNWT! It's a super stealthy POWERFUL vaporfactory! I gotta say that out of all my portables this thing has the most PUNCH!:nod: Would I like to see and anodized aluminum color version? Sure, but this will do for now! :2c: Mr. Grasshopper, Take notes! :myday:

More than a pax on red? And are you including the solo in your portables or did you mean pocket vapes?, interesting......sorry that was my VAS talking:D, but still...interesting.
Edit:I seriously hope you weren't including your new portable minivap in there too;)

Yes then the pax on red. And NO The Minvap and Herbie are on their own level:freak: The Solo still RULES it on flavor but the INH05 with those higher temps delivers that PUNCH:shrug::rockon:

Hey so first of all i must apologize because i posted about a week and a half ago, in an effort to round up some stats on who's 05s were and were not functional (ie. suffered from major issue), but i dropped off the thread a bit there after my 05 arrived and my schedule filled with other stuffs.

Well karma should have it that less than a week after i started used it, it simply stopped working. The first day of the fail the light would blink funny when i turned it on, and the heat wouldn't come on. I got it to work once more, and then it went back to that. On about the 2nd day the light just stopped coming on altogether, along with the heat.

When I plug it in, the other light comes on, and I've tried a couple chargers.

I suspect the battery has come loose, so I guess opening it up is next, but wanted to solicit opinion here first.

I'm so disappointed. Preparing to jump ship, and that would be a huge loss (over $400 spent and nothing to show for it, including the water pipe I purchased). I mean all the best intent to Inhalater but it might be time to cut the losses....?

i felt the same but my new replacement is working flawlessly :)

When I first received mine {GF's was spot on} it was having all sorts of strange going ons...it often wouldn't light up anything including the charger light. I quickly figured out that if I took and opened her up removing the switch cb...then she would fire up again.....a couple of the times it would do the flash dance thing then give up but mostly it just simply wouldn't show any signs of life until I disconnected the battery.....
Like you I wanted to blame the new battery cells 3000mah's but it behaved the same way with an older 2800mah as well.....frustration was mounting and yet there was GF telling me how much she was loving hers {sorta glad it went that way though} best I was having the issues than the other way around....

Anyway the final solution was actually a rather simple one and it has been fine ever since... I simply had to tap it....IKR it turns out something happens to the switch {the click} were it has a poor connection being made or something...so a firm tape on a table {not too hard} and firm were not looking to bounce it....but rather more of a seating type thing....seating the switch arm perhaps not certain but it did the trick for mine and it has been flawless since.....

I was actually first introduced to this back when I received my Q1/2014 XP {last batch} and it was a bit more like your experience.... it was working just fine for a day or two then it just stopped.... back then when instructed to try the "firm but not too hard tap" I was very concerned so instead I tapped lightly with my finger but to the base and I also kept turning it on and off {click click click click} until she began to function properly again.....a few runs later she wanted to nap on me again but the same routine of light taps to the base followed by several clicks....and I'm happy to say it has never come back and again that was my Q1....... so when my production 05 did it.....I went for the table tap....and happily that worked the first time.....so before going through the replacement process.....remember not too hard keeping in mind there is a battery sitting right above that tiny little switch......

If it has suffered a fall of heavy shock of some kind...well the tap method won't do the trick...because there something has likely lost connection or worse been crushed...ex: our tiny little switch

If I were you....I'd at the very least open her up and examine for any damage of any kind...if it all looks normal no cracks that you can see..... snap her back together and see if that yields anything...... and then I'd go for the "firm tap" deal.....

For warranty purposes... I would be sure to email admin@inhalater.com to inform them of what you are experiencing and if they feel your situation might benefit from the above procedures....I would be sure to do this step before proceeding.......CYA.....is all.....

Anyway good luck my fellow "Inhalator" if there hasn't been internal damage then this might be all you need to do.....
I noticed quite a bit of oil at the base of my switch...so naturally that's what I wanted to blame it on..... I know oil should be ok even good for the switch but perhaps contaminants in the oil...? I left the oil and just did the firm tap....and I've been rockin it ever since.....:peace:

I have also been experiencing sporadic issues with the unit just not working. As another member here has already mentioned it seems to be related to the contact with the battery. An example is last night while showing a friend and adjusting the temp in mid session, the unit just seemed to go dead. I tried pushing on the capsule part and the power light flickered briefly. I then proceeded to change the battery (got 2 extra batteries along with an external charger) but experienced the same issue. I took in/out the new battery about another 5 times and finally I guess the contact was made and it worked. It seems once in a while this happens, pretty annoying especially in mid session. I tried the banging trick suggested by another member and that works some of the time but it seems sometimes I also need to push on the top part of the unit. I am curious if many people have experienced this issue since it seems like my unit is fine and the fragile ribbon cable also appears to be in good shape.

Hi Inhalater when do you plan to ship us the rest of our perks?
Where can I found a user guide to replace the battery?..... a step by step pdf would be nice!
 
Ok. So, after about ten days of being seriously vaped, my INH05 crapped out. At first the blue light stopped blinking, but I'm pretty sure it was heating. Changed the battery. No blue light, no heat. I let Fredrick know, and made arrangements to ship the unit back to Montreal. Fredrick tells me they will ship the replacement by the weeks end. Had it happened later, I might have tried whacking the bottom against a table top as others have suggested to seat the battery.

In the meantime, I went out and acquired a Solo. Here's my comparison:

The Solo is definitely less stealthy. That giant glass tube is both awesome (great tasting herb) and a massive liability (feels like I'm going to smash it every time I use it). The heating time on the INH05 is about half to one third of the Solo. After the INH05, the solo makes me feel like I'm going to get my pension before its ready to go. The Solo is a good generator of cloud - it keeps producing big hits.

While not as tasty as the Solo, the INH05 heat time, stealth and ease of use, make it easily my favorite over the Solo. The Inhalater is just so easy to use, clean, and carry.

Can't wait until my INH05 is back. In the meantime, Solo, you're alright, but so damn slow to heat up.

- VAPE Dr. - How do you drill the air hole in the INH05 capsules. Could you post a picture and some instructions?
