The Arizer Air

I just got an email from Arizer and as such owe it to family here on FC to post details.

From Arizer,reply was brief.

"Videos and reviews will be available for the Air very soon. The Air has the same style heating element and heater bowl as the Solo, and the air flow has been optimized. Once the Air has reached the set temperature it is very effective at maintaining temperature. "

Thank You Arizer.

I guess I'm waiting for review then

I need to verify that airflow is indeed optimised/improved before sending funds.

@steama I'm thinking the same thing.zilch on the net still.

I wish there had been a little more info to work with from the beginning.

But I'll put that down to the huge task of releasing a new vape.a great endeavour from Arizer at the very least.

I'm thinking they weren't quite ready to release, but wanted to get what they had out as there are suddenly a lot of very good units available! I'm considering purchasing my 3rd in less than 3 weeks. Fortunately the wife doesn't monitor the collection

I really hate the looks of that clear skin. Gotta get the black skin after all.

I would be opting for a black skin too.

If I could,I wouldn't use the silicone skin at all .silicone isn t so pocket friendly unless they've made the surface a little slippery so it slides in and out of jeans pockets more easily.

Looks like incoming air is drawn from the top like the solo too and the louvred top is purely for heat displacement from the heater.

Had everything in my cart ready for checkout before I stopped myself... What makes this so tempting is it being from arizer. A pocketable solo would be

Yes it can , b/c you can switch with Solo stems/gongs .

How's your throat LImom ?
Must be better if you're back to vaping .

Hi poonman and yes I am doing a little vaping here and there but I must have filtration.
Now that this new device is out (I think azier is going after pax with this) maybe the solos will get cheaper in price and I will start with that

I know everyone is going to love this device

wootze said:

Yep, it will take a gong supposedly. Chamber takes solo stems. I'm pretty sure. That's what I remember anyway.

I don't understand why evo exhale would not produce different and smaller models. I feel like the xhale is a smaller version of exhale that you can move around w in your house or a friends house or a hotel room and the airier air is their pax/pen. And if it comes w the ability to attach to a water tool isn't that like the pinacle pro sort of? I can't buy 2 of these yet; my husband would totally freak on me but I want to get rid of my pax now.

Have 2 Solos and about to buy third on Massdrop. Can't imagine Air will perform or draw any better than Solo and have big investment in PV GonGs and adapters. But curious to see reviews/videos and hats off to Arizer for being so fucking prolific!

I like this vaporizer more and more

Want to try solo first. But thinking of a water tool how can we make it small and still with a lot of diffusion? If we think small then it mite attach better to the AA. And even if you use it in the house both the solo and this air have to easier to invert than the evo. I love my exhale and am glad it's my desktop but I do want something more portable. It really looks beautiful

The glass mouthpieces for the Solo is suppose to fit the Air.

If the Air's draw and yield is notably superior I'll consider one. All things being equal I have no need for more portability if the unit costs considerably more. The Solo has greater power capacity as I under it. Swapping a battery is convenient but I have yet to need to so with the Solo.

I'd say it's more of a white skin, not completely clear....
the black skin would be more suitable I think, and way stealthier.

I sure didn't need another vaporizer. I had been looking for a vape to give myself for
Xmas. Was thinking about the Crafty but was put off by the price. Then the Air
popped up. It was at the right time. It's risky getting a new vape right out of the
gate. Arizer has such a good reputation it's worth the risk. Now it's the waiting game.

steama said:

It almost a given the Air is an exceptional device. The question is how exceptional.

Click to expand...

I read it has the same bowl as the solo ,so if it performs similar to the solo ....I'm sold.

similar as in vapor quality, cause heat up time can be a bit longer having only 1 battery instead of 2. (but it doesn't have to)

HOLD ON hold on, Something is missing and frankly i am surprised none of you have spotted it.
WHERE IS THE BATTERY LEVEL INDICATOR!!! I know replaceable battery but still..

Will probably have something to do with color of lights.

I assume the second led will do this........hopefully.
(if anyone got one let me know if I'm right)

Solo had battery indication built into the lights of heat settings, I don't see any reason why Air wouldn't do the same thing... Just like Indica can with one button

I don't like the idea of one LED showing colors, very hard to see colors for me and remember. the old SOLO system was perfect.

that is a good observation. but i have had the solo for about 1.5yrs and haven't even noticed how i can check the battery charge level...is it a feature on the solo? i know if i hold one button down, it does volume & the other button redials to the last temp & both buttons will turn it on/off...am i missing something?

also, i know everyone uses differently, but i pretty much keep the solo on the charger & might use it every/every other night (for 1, rarely 2 sessions). when i take it to house parties, it gets used anywhere from 1-3 times (most of my friends are smokers). i have probably used it a max of 4 times without charging (but that probably only happened once). i don't recall my solo ever being completely uncharged - just a bit weak (but you can adjust w breath). for non-house parties (bars, clubs) i use the MFLB but wish i were using the solo...hopefully this bridges that gap. also, at times, my solo has been plugged in the wall by a cold windowsill for 2+ months without being touched (probably not recommended).

when my friends do want to use it, i just pack them personal loads and they kill it on their own schedule - no passing or anything (unless someone taps out early, which explains why i may get up to 4 sessions per charge).

I'm sure it would be different if i had more friends interested in vaporizing, but i probably wouldn't use the solo for situations like that. i feel like its more of a personal/2 person device even though i am always willing to let anyone curious try it out. in fact, my solo works so perfectly still that i have no reason to buy the air. i just ask myself if this is small enough to be stealthy in public crowds and how long will i have to wait to see this price again? those are my factors to purchase (and thats why i also am considering the goboof alpha also).

but, if arizer updates their portables on the cycle they currently trend at, it would be a great purchase even now because you know that a new model won't come out for years. i predict that their next model for dry material will be a game changer and probably AT LEAST 3+ years away (fairly future-proof).

The only thing stopping me for pulling the trigger is that I still feel we are all going to be beta testers for the AA. Yes, Arizer is a great company and have basically perfected the Solo, but this is still a new product and Arizer, like other manufacturers are notorious for implementing design changes without the consumer even knowing. How many different Solo's have there been? I see no reason that the AA won't be any different. Sure, the heater and bowl design may be the same, but what "new" issues will "Arize" with this new product? Maybe the new smaller design will make the product too hot, something that never happened with the Solo? I'm a big fan, and will more than likely buy one down the road, but i'm waiting until the dust settles and they implement changes which I know are going to happen.

One thing I can almost guarentee, is that they will be ALOT more stealthy with their SERIAL numbers!

Another thing, I see no mention of a WARRANTY unless i'm not looking in the right spot? In the FAQ it mentions their v-tower and EQ as well as Solo, but nothing on the AA. Does anyone know?

I predict this will be their LAST model, and will be retiring and enjoying the fruits of their labour soon!

Nobody has one yet huh?

Mine just left a customs facility in NY so I will have it tomorrow if Sunday delivery really happens.

@LongIslandmom
I think currently VXH has more priorities in releasing an
Int'l version of the EVO to their patrons whom have pre-paid .
There are other good vape manufacturers that are well versed
in the portable game .... get the Solo .

@akwardsauce
When you hold down the 2 buttons to turn it on .
1. the blue idle and the #7 light will flash .
2. then the 2nd pop up lights , are your battery level .
3. then the 3rd pop up lights will reflect the temp
level you were at last . If it's a cold start , no lights .

So I'm guessing it may be the same for the AA to
tell the battery and temp levels .

This must be the rumored " Mini-Solo " we've been
hearing about . I hope they will continue to innovate
in this market . There's room in the pen-vape corner .
Let's see Arizer venture into the concentrates area .

I'm wondering if the ' skins ' for the AA is
for stealth and heat protection and even debris
from getting in the top part ?
The user friendly battery switching is a big + .
I've read on other portable threads that
stresses this benefit feature as a must .

My 'take' is draw will be the same as the current Solo, same oven, interchangeable stems.

I'm not sure how convenient it will end up being, I think many owners will simply recharge and use normally the original battery, but it will be handy when the original gets weak. I too see no huge advantage to being smaller in diameter at the expense of run time (no free rides in life.....), but can see how others might highly value it. I think it's going to still have that 'are you happy to see me or is that a vape in your pocket' look.

That's how I see it too. Not really a new model as much as a repackaging? I see no reason why heat up should be different time wise, you'd just rewind the heater for 3.7 Volts and make the single battery do the work of two (for 'half the time'). This is the right place to insert the Biblical saw about lamps burning twice as bright but this really isn't that kind of crowd.

Agreed. It seems they didn't even follow the color spectrum (what if it is in order, the top 3 steps, is 'backwards'......with the hot end of the range at the cool end of the spectrum). This means, I think, that even those with normal color vision can get in on the frustration.

That's not a given, of course, they could for example 'count up' to the final value. That is flash blue, white, green before stopping there? I agree, battery charge (in less steps) probably is shown using the same display scheme. In fact, since they no doubt modified the Solo program for this new guy (insert wheel development adage here) for both speed (cost) and confidence reasons they would ironically probably have to intentionally take it out.

Many I think are creatures of habit in vaping. Eventually learning to use vapes like VG of MFLB with no useful display of essential information. For instance, not all have battery meters. How this one will work out remains to be seen, but I too think the chance Arizer releasing a Turkey is slim indeed. Besides which, that's a Yankee thing..........

Soon we will know more......and probably understand less.

Regards to all.

OF

I couldn't wait to buy the Arizer Air so I've pulled the trigger. Can't WAIT! Spare battery Big plus, glass stems: ahh reclaiming....hot chocolate!?/ easy to clean, and ABV herb turned into cooking oil. I love it

I have a Vape Problem!!! Now time to retire my Extreme Q and high maintenance Pax. Don't want to be a Vaporizer hoarder.

too bad they did not implement USB charging..... the power supply clearly looks like a round pin.

I have one of the new ones and it still has way to much draw resistance for me so imo it has not been fixed.

Click to expand...

Then you are either packing too tight, or pulling too hard, or both. It has definitely been fixed, and if the AA is identical in resistance, I will be more than happy. There is obviously a balance that Arizer needed to consider in order for the unit to function optimally. If in your opinion it has not been "fixed", then perhaps it's not the right vaporizer for you. Try the more expensive and plasticky tasting Crafty.
