The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

Is that separate from the clicky parts that you were waiting on? Do the two clicks operate at better temperatures on this revision?

To everyone else, what are the two ideal click temps? I'm assuming it's traditionally one click for flavor and another click for a single hit extraction, with another 2-3 seconds of leeway for complete combustion. All of that happens at a wide range of temperatures though.
On all previous vapes that used click disks, the temp was variable depending on heating source/technique. Heating higher/lower on vapcap/Anvil for example.

I trust Brenyo will find the correct range.

Pretty obvious to everyone here that it's a better idea to design the induction heater around the vape, than it is the other way around.

What would be the point in designing an induction heater that isn't optimally used for the vape from the same guy/company?

From the interest in this thread, and the good things people have to say I'd think Brenyo has made the right choices.
But wasn’t the induction heater planned long time before they going to make the Tempest?

I hope this isn't going to be like the induction heater Mad heaters reckoned they were going to release:rofl:
I know you are probably just joking, but it's not really a fair comparison. From what I gather Mad Heaters changed their priorities and shelved the IH to work on other products. These products have been released and well loved it seems.

The Tempest is at the cusp of completion. We have videos of it being used. Just needs the two temp indicators to be fine tuned.

I would say yes but I wasn't in the room at the time, it has been reprioritised evidently. I gave reason for possibly why in my post, your point?

I think in the vaping world, there's a lot of bad customer service, shitty companies with shady practices, and over hyped devices that it's hard to trust anything you read about.

Mad Heaters isn't like that and have released quality products with great customer service, so even if you're joking, you're going to get a lot of people defending Mad Heaters.

I'm hyped for the induction heater as well, but I think Brenyo makes sure all his products are quality before releasing. Hell, the Tempest could have already been released by now if Brenyo just said screw it, the clicks are 10s off like some of the other vapes out there.

@Brenyo What are your thoughts on the colour selection now you have had a few days to assess the colour options in person? Might be hard to whittle it down ha

I haven’t received the colored ones yet, just a few faulty black ones.

I'll be going blue/silver. I love the combo, and it matches some of my other gear.

I think all the colours will look lovely in person.
Yeah, like the color choice in this vid.

Or maybe with a Blue stem and Silver shell. Either way looks good...

I'm going with the blue stem and silver shell. Just because it's more blue than silver.
Yeah, I think you are right...

Woops haha, read your post from the 28th wrong 🤣

I have a blue and gold theme going on in my stash box but I've been trying to force myself just to buy pieces that look good individually. Failing miserably though 😩

hold on, the IH is shelved? is that confirmed? I was tempted to buy a Koilboi or a VapOven but i was holding out for the Mad Heaters IH...

I think Brenyo said it'll be a 2024 target release, so it's next in line after the Tempest. The IH will be specifically designed for the Tempest (Hopefully that means faster heat up times vs the wand).
Makes sense to do it this way. If IH came out first, it would likely not have been compatible to the Tempest

makes a lot of sense :) so i guess its time for an "intermediate" IH in the meanwhile.
There will be a Wand adaptor for the Tempest available day one. The adaptor let's the Tempest sit in the device and will hold it there. So you can use it hands free.

So it seems the Wand has a sort of unofficial designation as the supported IH. At least until MadHeaters release theirs.

i don't find the Wand a very attractive device, considering the reports i read about how long it takes to heat up, for example, a Dani Fusion.
Still torn between a Koilboi or VapOven until the Sense (or whatever it will be called) is available.

The videos Brenyo have posted include heating the Tempest up via the Wand. Seemed like it took 30-45 seconds iirc but will hold the heat much longer so only one or two cycles is needed. To me it seems a wash overall for total heat time to clear a bowl but definitely just an opinion at this point!

I just picked up a wand the last couple of weeks for <$100 shipped on a deal posted in previous pages of this thread and love it so far. It's not the prettiest, but it's also not the ugliest and does a great job imo... time will ultimately tell how well it works for the Tempest.
