    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    My opinion would be to use negative pressure to inflate the bag while using the inflating bag to make the pump slower. It would also bypass the whole path question. Pretty much like an iron Lung type bag. I haven't looked at what's available though. Maybe someone is actually making that...

    Grasshopper / Zenpen Concerns and Considerations

    I actually stopped coming to this forum because of this whole ordeal. I agree that it appears only to complain. It started with a complaint about the lack of betas, and stemmed from there into "video shenanigans". I don't even know what the newest complaints are. I stopped bothering page 3...

    Grasshopper / Zenpen Concerns and Considerations

    You know evidence they are dishonest and no evidence that they are honest are two separate things, right?

    The Grasshopper

    You're vaporizing weed, not desegregating education. Get a grip. Personally I have no idea why you are hung up on a beta. You and I have no idea who has already beta tested this product, only that they aren't talking. If you don't feel comfortable funding this, do not. Millions of mactards...

    The Grasshopper

    I have solved the beta issue: The campaign is over goal so I will generously beta. You keep wondering or doing aerospace engineering or whatever it is you do. When I find out if it's any good, in feb, I'll let you know. Then you can go buy one, or not. Or you can demand beta testing from...

    I have a stealth and I bought my buddy the wood. Neither of us has seen any issues yet. He is a serious connoisseur and I used mine every day for the first month. There is a marked difference in the fit, but it's not a terrible thing. My glass is tighter, and my bowl ceramic looks to have...

    I'd suggest you read this thread, or at least the last 10 pages or so.

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I explained that poorly. I'm assuming the DV runs on a set voltage and amperage. When it is running straight from the battery, this is fairly straightforward, because the batteries output won't vary significantly. Charging the battery requires little more than a transformer. Batteries...

    I imagine doing that would have forced them to balance the power coming in from the jack instead of the battery. They they have to build that accounting for every power source one may use, in every country and every configuration. Not only would that be larger, it would be kind of a nightmare...

    There was a long post a while back about how much the DV charges when in use. I forget the whole conversation, but the point was the DV used more than the charger put out, so you could plug it in and use it, but it still needed a charge because it would still use up battery faster than it could...

    You may be talking about the timer. You can double tap the config button and it allows you to change the timer for power off. Changing that seemed to make a difference for me, no matter how I moved. I kind of thought that was motion only, but I think its either not very sensitive or that...

    I bought some of those flowers from Amazon, so let me be clear: Putting the oil jar on a small load to keep it packed is certainly good enough to never need flowers, whether you have holes drilled in the jar or not, BUT- I put two flowers on the bottom, a pinch, two on top, and try to edge in...

    I haven't seen one and people have asked, so I will share my observations on what a first time user should know. Sorry if it seems presumptuous. Initial Setup: You should check your charge when you get your vape. They have been coming from the factory with a substantial if not full charge...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Maybe the version 1 is different, but if you have vapor out the bottom grill, I only see two reasons: 1. your technique needs work. Don't blow, don't puff, don't send air down the straw. 2. you are covering the straw with heat going. I have noticed that mine seals so well that if I cover the...

    That is fixed in the newer models. Mine has no problem

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    The flowers I saw posted were specifically tobacco filters. The chief complain against them was the packing. It's marketed to smokers and as we see in this thread, it only takes one clever person to warn everyone off a bad product, as long as you are willing to read through the reviews. I...

    they are reusing serial numbers. My stealth is A1 and it has all the latest changes.

    I answered your first post. Someone else even liked it. I recommended you examine your technique. Based on some of the other posts here, I put a pinch of herb on the bottom (I'd say .05 if I had to guess). I put the jar on it...not a flower or other device. I started it at 360 and got a...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    The common response to that is to check your technique. Low and slow is the way this seems to work best. I did a bunch of herb at 350 and got vapor well. Unlike many people here, I don't find packing it tight to make nearly as much of a difference and just filling the bowl. I was with...

    Yeah, you probably should see if it's broke. Even though I didn't have big clouds, I'd get vaped at 370 with a loosely packed non-full bowl. When I packed it tight, it lasted me 3 to 4 sessions, at least 4 or 5 long draws a session. I cant tell you if that's normal or not. Maybe sometime...
