I'm not sure what you did either. Probably best to leave it alone because it is quite clear hazydayz isn't interested in a conversation or differing opinions. He seems intent on getting you riled up with his personal attacks, despite you not taking the bait.

Your right, I am not taking the bait.
I understand the disagreement, but I don't understand blatant name calling. It is just a forum topic, you know...Egzoset said:
Yes I look forward to a Aromed 5.0 myself, the concept is interesting, I just think they need a couple tweaks.
Here is one, just look at the picture and notice the Thermocouple hanging in mid air-stream
not directly, but i'm guessing airflow can be inferred from drop in temperature ... probably depends on the heating characteristics of the bulb -- i'm guessing it must be damn near instantaneous to reach setpoint temperature (also from info about the Oracle vape), so any measured quick heat drop would be mostly from air flow.
and while you can certainly run the calculation 60 times per second, i know my k-type thermocouple can't respond that fast: when using 0.010" leads it requires 0.8 seconds to respond (maybe "stabilize" is a better term), and the MAX6675 (which converts the thermocouple voltage to temperature) requires 0.25 seconds to do the conversion.
just as a comparison, the Bud Toaster calulates the duty cycle 10 times per second, but only samples the thermocouple 3 times per second.
in case anybody was curious, eh?

Thank you for your Hippie Dickie, I was hoping for you opinion.
See the thermocouple of the Aromed is under the light bulb (laying flat in the socket). So my point is that it can only read the temperature around that vicinity, of course like you said it can adjust when someone inhales because of the temperature change from the air coming from above.
But there is variable X that they cant factor in, that is the air creeping in where the bowl and heater mate together. There is no seal whatsoever, it would be like inhaling from the bud toaster without pressing your stem against the bud vial, instead just keeping it a couple millimeters away.
I just think the thermocouple is in a overall bad place because it also reads the temperature of the air before it travels across its main heat source (the bulb & the glass cover that screws on around the bulb) that is where the air is going to pick up the most heat.

I said I wasn't going to post anymore but I did a quick glance and saw this and thought isn't this a good thing?.
If it knows the outside temperature where the air is coming in from it can adjust the temperature of the bulb before inhalation and adjust the rest of the temperature based on your inhale rate which is why you need to inhale at a certain speed and the blinking light is your indicator to let you know you're if your inhaling right or not.
I think that is a smart idea.

Someone questioning the validity and challenging the logic of a manufacturer is anything but pathetic. It is, in fact, what will help propel this industry forward.
could not agree more.
i dont think people on this forum are here to pick apart MFGs.
we are here to discuss their products. and often how they make/market/whatever them falls under that.
and if there are any questionable aspects of that the users on this forum will surely find them and point them out
