How are you more discrete with the Vapman?

EDIT:
So.. Just broke another piece of glass, but its still usable, I would just like to even the chipped edges or even shorten it for other pieces, any suggestions?

Cause you can palm it i suppose...not possible with the VapCap...

edit: I'm n° 240, I think I'm close to get it now....?

I can palm both but with the vapcap I have to suck it like a cigar and its more conspicuous… I also have to do two hits instead of one. That can attract more looks when in public.

So what you are saying is the Vapman has a better heating cycle than the Vapcap? I ask because I have been looking for a hand held vaporizer that works well. I have the original Pax by Ploom, but did not wnjoy the limited battery life and long heating cycles. I have looked at the Firefly, but the price point and functionality have kept me away. I am hopeful the Vapcap is the answer, but always searching.

I feel like the VapCap is more discreet. I would say it is pretty close between the two. This sounds weird, but you hold the VapMan like a joint. The difference can be seen in your elbow with that pinky finger flying high. With the VC I can either let it dangle from my mouth like a cig with the air intake open, or just hit it casually more like a cigarette.

I personally don't really "hit it like a cigar".

More random thoughts of VapCap vs VapMan

I actually have found greater respect for my VapMan since I got my VapCap. At first, I thought the VC would basically replace the VM completely. It certainly hasn't but I use my VapCap much more often, especially while out and about. The VM usually stays at home, and is used much more often at night.

I personally find the vapor profile of the VapCap more uplifting vs the Vapman being more sedative. So again, this has me more often using the VC out and about.

The VapCap is a little quicker to heat when using a triple torch vs the single torch of the VM from a cold start. But with a single torch speed would likely go to VapMan. It is close either way.

I find the VapCap easier to use for a beginner and easier to really fully extract your material without risking combustion. If i really try and "brown everything fully" in the VapMan i do sometimes combust, and I do fucking hate that. I never do in the VC anymore, but one easily could if they miss the click or don't know the device yet.

The VapCap is WAY quicker and easier to load and unload with less mess. That said, i do enjoy loading the VapMan sometimes with the little funnel thing but it is a pain in the ass on the move.

I would say the VapMan provides the bigger visual cloud exhales.

They both work swimmingly with kief and/or ice extract. It is close here but i prefer the VapCap as I feel i get more complete extraction especially with bubble.

I find the VC easier to clean and maintain, but this is really a plus for both of them. They both aren't too bad.

Bottom line. I am a vapor addict and i like to mix in a ton of different vapes and vapor profiles.

Edit. What does "better heating cycle" mean?

Double edit. I find the VapCap much less harsh than the VapMan.

Triple edit. I do prefer the more open Air path of the VapMan vs the VC.

So, here is the new and improved Dynastash. Please let me know what you think.

I was referring to the OP's statement about one heating cycle in the VM = 2 in VC. After looking at the VM website this could purely be a result of the different chamber sizes between the 2 devices. I live in Denver and primarily consume flower. Extracts are not a normal part of my consumption, I see they are popular with the European set though especially, but I am not to interested in extract vaping.

Like the look of it George. Have you looked at adding a shallow cut out around the magnet so the cap could be seated more positively? It seems like the magnet would have to be really strong to provide any real aid in removing the cap, and then you have to worry about demagnitizaion (sp?) with cards in the same pocket. I do like the idea and design, and will wind up getting one if I like the VC as much as I expect to.

Looks great George!
Would really like the magnet to be flush with the stash box, with out it protruding out. If that can't be done I'd rather have mine without a magnet. Hope one or the other is possible as I've already ordered one.

Just placed an order for the plain jane cap.
If i like it, ill get a titanium and a dugout.
Need a new no frills portable. This should help.

What torch is best?

Also, order number was 500. How long u think till i get it?

There will be many orders shipped out this week. My goal is to get orders through the beginning of Dec by the end of the week. If I can stay on track, I should have all current orders shipped before the end of the year. I still don't have a steady supply of caps, but I hope to have that resolved in the next few weeks.

The VC only really combusts when you reheat before the cooldown click, based on my experience.

I like the form factor and its similar appearance to a cig, but recognize that it looks close enough to a pipe that people might pay attention if I'm having an extended session. The several heat cycles required to fully extract payload and the highly restrictive air path (if you want dense, visible vapor) make for a slightly less discrete package than the form factor implies.

I have no experience with the Vapman, so I can't compare the VC to it. The VC was definitely my smallest vape overall, with smallest herb chamber.

As for the restrictive air flow... I personally like visual feedback like thick, visible vapor. Visible vapor is achieved through carbing, and requires a lot of lung power to get a little vapor into your lungs at that rate.

Used with the hole open, the visibility is diminished, which might help if discretion is needed. The flavor still comes through, and if I was still into tobacco I'd probably vape some in the VC at every smoke break to get my coworkers used to seeing me hit the e-less cig and make sneaking a toke in during lunch a bit easier.

Can you really get any vapor without carbing it? I've tried and either it cools it down way too quickly and I get nothing. I tried slowing my draw to barely nothing and still didn't recieve results I'd thought I'd get.

If George could design another cap that could allow more air flow and maybe click a little later so providing more heat to counter to cooling of the extra airflow.

I'm not trying to take a shit on the design, I would just throw so much fucking (Just a little passionate sorry) money at this if it was a little less restrictive but still function. It doesn't have to be a cloud machine, but maybe it's not possible, I'm sure George would have tried.

Are the woodies going to have a carb as well? From the pictures it doesn't look that way. They also look wider than the original caps. Maybe that's just an illusion by the wood. Though if you look at the woodie on the sites store it certainly looks smaller than the ones recently posted here.

*Also, another reason why I suggest using a basket like screen is because I've had to consecutively clean my cap cause I didn't hear my clicks and fumbling with the screen provided is just too tedious for me. So I'm glad these work.

*Okay so I guess you can get visible vapor without carbing it. Though the only way I do get a bunch is if I hold the torch a little past the click. It's dangerous. I only do it for the first two cycles and I try to make it even shorter for the second cycle, but WOW, the first hit is a lot of flavour. I hit it without the carb for a few seconds to make sure it's cooled a little bit then pulse the carb slightly and you'll get quite a good hit.

It is all technique I suppose. Still would love a cap with no resistance, and hit maybe like a lotus. Bare in mind I would still would want it made by Dynavap! I mean aren't we all expecting Vapcap 2.0 at some point ?

Sorry to ask for shipping info here but my order n°240 was not shipped yet....I'm only worry cause I payed using paypal before the issues with it.

I think I'll receive a shipping info e-mail before shipping (to check the adress), isn't it?

oh shoot ive just realised im in the same boat having used paypal although my order is much later (mid 300's)

As I am shipping these out, you should receive a shipping notification. The Ti Woodies won't begin shipping for another day or so, but there are VapCaps and PyroVaps going out almost everyday. There should be a bunch of everything shipping Wednesday and Thursday.

Thank you for your patience.

George

I was in that PayPal group too, and I got an email a few weeks ago from George to confirm my choice of wood (chose coco), so I know my info and payment was transferred to him from PP thankfully, I was concerned about that too until I got the wood confirmation email.

Shipping by end of this week? It's a VapCap Xmas after all!

Thankyou George!

Hoping a lot of you see your cap before the holiday. It brings as much holiday cheer as some good eggnog, maybe more.

someone got their shipping confirmation today . cant wait to try this bad boy out in a few days.

Got my confirmation today(Order 23X)! Hopefully it makes it Canada before Christmas.

In the past, I was able to get very wispy vapor without carbing (to visually confirm I was actually vaping) by ripping like a madman on every hit and torching the cap a little lower (longer heat up, better sustainability of temp during my minute long hits). It would take a heat cycle or two before the [mild] visibility was there, but the low temp tasty business was going on before that to give me another indicator that I was indeed extracting.

From a discretion standpoint, this may be better (no cloud upon exhale). The downside was that when I would rage on it, the air rushing through made a distinct sound (not whistling, but you could hear air rushing). As @IAmKrazy2 said, it's not super loud, and there weren't written instructions demanding that I rip it that hard... But we gotta put things through their paces and report it like it is; the sound was notable, probably because I hit that thing like a Dyson.

This is one of the options on how to use the VC. I believe this is how George does it too. A little extra heat, carb hole fully open.

Edit. There is a slight air rush sound but i dont think it greatly effects stealth IMO.

Am I the only one that covers the carb until the end of the hit?

Since one of my stems is short the dropper doesn't fit in it, I haven't been carbing at all and still get great clouds like in my videos.
