    Do any of you guys have a recommendation on a good smell insulating case for this baby?

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I believe I have figured out why I get such crappier vapor production compared to my 1st two units. It has to do with the air path. When I blow into my current carbon fiber ascent with the holes of the glass stem plugged or the singular glass stem hole (stem removed), I get a whole lot of air...

    I did not mean for it to sound that way. I was only trying to say that I was getting a 180 degree reading. I knew that couldn't be accurate or right which is why I was soliciting other peoples responses. I understand emissivity. since you're the only other person who has done this before what...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    It sounds as if you're calling me a liar. My first 2 units died completely. They stopped heating up and charging after 3 or 4 weeks of usage. But when they did work I was getting awesome vapor production out of them. My current 3rd unit I've now had for a week. I am getting less than a...

    I probably will. I just wanted to know what others bowl temp readings were before I did. Its just so frustrating. I've only had this since the beginning of November. If i have to send this one back I'll be waiting for my fourth one. I will have had 3 months of owning this thing but 4 weeks...

    Even if the ir thermometer is wrong it shouldn't be over 200 degrees off. We use it to measure surface temps of our molds and it is much more accurate than that. In fact my forehead measures 95 degrees so its within its specified accuracy. I only did this because my 3rd ascent produces...

    I'm hoping someone else has a laser thermometer (I borrowed one from work) and can take a quick measurement and post their results.

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I'm on my 3rd unit. The 1st two died because it stopped heating and charging. I had gotten a pretty good method of vaping with my 1st 2 units. Tight but not super tight pack around 0.3-0.5 gs depending on party size with some cotton on top. My 3rd unit can't produce anywhere near the same...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I'm about to send in for my 3rd unit. Both of my previous ones died the same way. Stopped heating up/ charging. Both were stealths. I have been using cotton as my spacer. I sued this thing for its mobility and cotton just seemed easier for me than the flowers and it has worked great. I do...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I'm saying it doesn't heat to set temp. I set it for 400 it will only heat to and show 396. I have to power cycle for it to hit 400. Sometimes when I change the temp mid session it does nothing. It just shows the cup and the previously set temp. My first ascent did not show any of these...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    So my replacement ascent has an issue where it doesn't want to heat up to the chosen temp if I change it during a session. I start at 375 it gets there. I up it to 400 and it only wants to show 396 or something like that and the temp bar doesn't really show it heating, it sort of flashes and...

    Ascent Vaporizer - The Ordering, Shipping, & Other Nonsense thread

    Yeah I sent them the tracking info right after I got home from the post office. Told them it would get there wednesday and everything. All I've heard from them is "this has never happened before". I even told them the day it was going to arrive that morning. I don't get why the usps didn't...

    Ascent Vaporizer - The Ordering, Shipping, & Other Nonsense thread

    2 people that answer phones and emails. There is apparently a separate shipping department. They told me personally they worked wed and friday. I'm just pissed they lost the notice and refused to pick up the package. It says notice left 10:07 am Nov 27 in las vegas 89123. Now I have no way...

    Ascent Vaporizer - The Ordering, Shipping, & Other Nonsense thread

    I would personally wait. I was order 5104 and rma number 438 which roughly shows a 10% defect rate. Plus when usps tried to deliver my return to them at 10 am on a Wednesday, they weren't in and left them a notice which they deny receiving. So my package has sat at their local post office...

    Well the giant jump in rma numbers would definitely indicate being swamped with defective units.

    Are they making you pay the return shipping for the 2nd shipment?

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Well in business perception trumps reality. My rma number is 438 which was issued 2 days ago. If it's true they are in the mid 600s, that tells you that there have been over 200 rmas in the last 2 days... kind of explains why they never answer the phone. I want to love this product. I did...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I hope the same for you too lol. I don't want to take away from the product. Its a great design and works well when it works, but it's unreliable and has suspect quality issues still. Hopefully they can figure it out whether its software or heat management issues as I'm guessing it is.

    So that's 3 guys with the same problem in the last 3 days plus another guy from a while back. Was everyone's a stealth?
