Discontinued The Sublimator
- Thread starter PlanetHaze
- Start date
Alright ... quick update ... for you Cloud and MiniVAP owners (w/ silicone cone 
), for use with herb, the Sublimator I don't think is anything revolutionary (at least not in my opinion). It hits hard like those other 2 vapes and has the ability to cash a load in one to two hits. The Sublimator does have a higher temperature range even as it can be dialed in high enough to combust. It's ability to dab concentrates in the "craters" is definitely unique and in that respect it gets an A+++.
Edit: It's ability to generate concentrate is unique as well ... some was starting to drip out the bottom of the atomizer so I scraped around the bottom a little and got a nice dabs worth ... very nice redish translucent concentrate and tasted very nice and evaporated nicely out of the crater

Wish I had a cloud or minivap to compare it to, but I feel confident saying it is a superior experience to the Volcano IMO. The high is clearer and it feels like I am getting more out of my herb vs the Volcano. I think alot of it has to do with the fine mist vapor becomes in the atomizer. So smooth and easy to hold in the lungs.
I owned a Volcano as well Tweek (sold when I got my Cloud ) ... it is a superior experience IMO as well. I think a big part of it is the quick extraction that is achieved (ie. the ability to vaporize a good size load in 2-3 hits ... and completely ...) The Sublimator may have a slight edge with the atomizer but I find all 3 devices work equally well as far as ability to get one medicated and the differences are more in the subtleties.

very non biased review, I appreciate this.

I don't have a cloud or minivap or really any high-powered extractor that's not portable and fire-based, so it sounds like it fits my bill. I can extract a load down to dust if I want with a VG, but it's not always as smooth as I'd like, especially if dry and unfiltered.

I saw this
I have been trying to watching your videos all day today. Man, the Sublimator looks awesome!! I see your having a contest and this is my first entry. You didn't exactly say what the rules are yet, I would really love to win an Apollo adapt a bong kit or a full subliminator would be even better. I would love to show it off at the dispenseries in San Francisco and the Bay Area.

very interesting, what do you find water takes away from the hit in the sub? I know I heard enrico mention it diminishes the taste before.

I'm also curious to see how the waterless is. Kinda bummed because part of what was interesting me in all the glass was the perc bubble action, which I find to be enjoyable all to itself, but if the Sub performs best dry, then who am I to argue? 
No doubt I will test it out for myself, and find what works best for my needs. I already have a glass piece clean and dry, ready to try it out. Might be a few more daze though, my Sub has landed on US soil, but is still on the other side of the country. I'll be happy if it shows up before I leave town Fri.
I hope to see some new vids posted soon...

git'er dunI just find I get better taste. It is so smooth dry, that when I use water, I find it hard to tell I am taking a hit at all. Your mileage may vary of course, but definitely a first for me.

I have to disagree here because the Cloud does not medicate me as well as the Sublimator does. Even with equivalently colored ABV, I find the Sublimator more completely helps my pain and discomfort. So maybe it's better at extracting the high end CBD? That'd be my guess from experience.

jcat...how many times have you used your Sub?
Not so much disagreeing on this one as mentioning one of the "subtle" differences ... the Sublimator does excel at extracting the high temp actives (this is my experience as well), but I find I can achieve this effect with the Cloud and MiniVAP as well, but it's not quite as smooth (I think Tweek is right on the money there
). Each device has its strong points that will make it stand ahead of the others for various people and various reasons ... I find a place for all 3 depending on my moods/needs. I find the Cloud and MiniVAP to be unbelievably smooth dry through a bubbler/hydratube as well as the Sublimator, but they are much harsher with a straight tube. The diffusion works even without water and adds significantly to the cooling.The Sublimator is by far the most dangerous device and the MiniVAP is by far the safest (as well as portable/battery operated), so depending on your needs that might be a factor. For someone with a dedicated setup, I find the MiniVAP to be the most time consuming one to use though as it takes 4 minutes or so to get to temperature whereas with the Cloud or the Sublimator I can use my WeMo to turn them on or leave them on for extended periods of time so it's very quick to walk in to the shop, vape, clean, walk out.
Edit:
I've used my Sublimator from about 10:30am on Friday until bed. (so about 14-15 hours of use? Probably about 1.5-2g or so + some concentrates)
Used the Sublimator a few times Saturday morning then was at the cottage with the MiniVAP for Saturday until Sunday afternoon. Used the Sublimator exclusively since yesterday around 3 so probably went through another 1-2g.
Why?

That looks rediculously tasteh Green. Love the stereo to
I've yet to run it through water actually. It's just so smooth and tasty dry. Once I get the PV reclaimer I'll give water a try. I just don't wanna risk water running up into the atomizer with the stemless right now.
That hit looked so sexy and delicious 
Should stack just fine. I ran it through my piece with water and there was no difference in function. Just not very exciting taste wise.

Seems like that's gonna be the big dillema for me then, as I quite like the bubbles and the sound they make
Using hot water, I could hardly tell I was inhaling any vapor...no tickle or any kind of que outside of running out of lung space. With my SSV or Volcano, I could always feel a tickle or desire to cough.

Enrico, when will the SPACE TRAVEEEEELLLLL kit be available?
Or maybe I should direct this question to PV?
Either way.... I need!

If I recall correctly, during one of my correspondences with PV, they mentioned that more Sublimator equipment should be arriving in July. Don't quote me on that though
.As soon as Enrico finds a way to get Remo and his glorious moustache into space for some testing.
