    Discontinued Healthy Rips FIERCE

    I've definitely noticed that if you blow slightly into the mouthpiece on a fresh bowl in the fierce that a bunch of vapor will come out the bottom vent. This implies there's a lot of conduction going on as the heater would have to be below the bowl, so the heat isn't coming from warm air when...

    Not at all! I think Troy's review has opened up some interesting discussion on the topic of "power" vs "preference" and what we think is normal behavior for a vaporizer, because to be honest making a vape that stays at one specific temperature through and entire session would probably require...

    Agreed, the masking doesn't seem weird to me, because technically you could update the value as fast as the temp sensor polls/updates which would just be excessive, what's more important is constantly being around the correct temperature. As far as the heating curve goes and raising temperature...

    I mean, yeah they're not gonna launch a v2 now. I'm just saying they didn't need to fix it at all. They could've waited and launched a whole new product. But, like I said before, the vape market is pretty small, so if the Fierce didn't do well I could see it marring their reputation.

    Honestly, extremely refreshing seeing Healthy Rips so responsive and committed to customer feedback. Yes, the launch wasn't perfect, but I'm not sure I would expect so much effort being put into a product that was already released and not selling a V2 or something as a more expensive product...

    Any updates on the new heating curve? I'm interested to see what the effect will be on battery life. Either way $20 isn't too bad for a 4050 mah battery.

    I have noticed a clicking noise on mine, but haven't had any issues so far. Wonder if it's indicative of problems down the line. I'm definitely not a heavy user at all. Usually only once or twice a week with some friends... I guess only time will tell, but it seems like Healthy Rips will take...

    Discontinued Healthy Rips FIERCE

    Brought the fierce to a friend's last night. We all loved it! I've only had experience with edibles before, so I wasn't really sure what to expect. We stayed at 400F the whole night cause we didn't really feel like messing with temp. No one complained about any smells or flavors after airing it...

    Alright, so I left it in front of the fan for a few hours on high, mouth piece off, chamber facing into the fan. The smell is SIGNIFICANTLY reduced when hot. Taking a pull with nothing in the chamber tasted VERY slightly like plastic. I would compare it to drinking warm water out of a plastic...

    Thanks for all the replies! I'm only a computer engineer, so I don't know the components of solder, just the smell when heated and that it connects parts I want to touch :p. But that is the smell that first came to mind. I hope everyone is right and it will dissapate, I just wanted to be sure it...

    That's what I'm hoping, but as I said before I washed off the plastic-y smell on the outside. There is absolutely no smell on the outside or inside of the chamber until the oven heats up. I usually only notice the smell if the mouth piece is off the device. Then there is a smell uniquely...

    Yeah I'm not sure what to make of it. I'm sure the air path is isolated if they claim it is, but defects occur. The smell is very distinct like solder not plastic and I can only smell it when it's heated. This is what worries me. I'll keep trying to heat it and run air through it by blowing...

    What exactly do you guys mean by "robot fart" smell? Mine definitely smelled like the packaging when I first received it but a good clean seemed to take care of that. The only smell I have now is when the vape is on and the mouthpiece is off it smells slightly like heated solder. I'm worried...

    Thanks for the reply, it's nice to see such confidence. Can't wait to try it out! I suppose this is the right attitude to have, especially for a small company in a pretty niche market. I guess I gotta take off the tin foil hat and realize the smaller companies usually aren't trying to take...

    Discontinued Healthy Rips FIERCE

    That's my point though. It's seemed like they've had many "release dates" tenative or otherwise that fell through. I hope you're right and they are being transparent, but I'm just saying it could be indicative that there's an issue they're having trouble nailing down, or their fixes have caused...

    Idk seems kinda sketchy to me... After constant delays it seems like there was some bigger issue they're having trouble ironing out.... Also why would additional testing cause another delay unless another problem was found?
