    Tornado by Vestratto

    Others have mentioned the noise but I'm not on my unit. I hear a low audible beep when it's done heating but nothing while heating or off unless I hold it near my ear and I hear a slight buzz. I hear ok 🧏‍♂️:), and room is dead quiet. Have you tried cascade mode yet? If you haven't, create a...

    Definitely has power calibrated differently. John mentioned that in his Instagram post when he said "we redid the coil output calibration to more accurately reflect delivered power to the load"......."These improvements are a key part of our desire to “move beyond the click” enabling both dry...

    Tornado by Vestratto

    As another Cascade mode Aficionado I of course had to try these settings vs my usual 5500/85% setting. I do the cold start hit and two reheat hits typically since by then, for me at least, the taste is getting harsh, much more so with my settings than yours, and that’s to be expected and the avb...

    Camouflet Ceramo XL

    I got in on the 420 Forge & Tornado combo last year with expected ship date of mid May for both. Got the Forge in June and Tornado in September. Tornado ended up breaking the Forge and had to wait for V2 to be released end January of this year. Was I happy? Hell no! Was there anything I could do...

    I can't for life of me find the download link. Lets put it this way, the .pdf manual says 'version 2' on each page so it's either for V2 of Forge or just version 2 of manual. 🤷‍♂️

    I quoted the V2 manual for that % range. I just checked mine and like yours can't go below 50%.

    Sadly the wagon wheel isn’t included anymore, it’s now an extra. As noted by yourself and others, the Wand is just a timed heater. It works very well with the Tornado. Just to add to your response I’d just say that the Forge design was pretty much based on emulating using a torch. You can...

    I'm in the USA, but I sent mine on Jan 25th and Vestratto received it Jan 2 and I got V2 delivered Feb 8.

    Got V2 couple days ago. I'm at 5500J and 85%. I have my stopper higher than yours, such that its recessed into the wagon wheel threaded sleeve (did same with V1). At Forge time out and Tornado removal I almost immediately get the first disc click followed quickly by second click. AVB is perfect...

    Quick Vestratto Forge induction heater

    I got my email to return my Forge the other day. As we all know by now it's being done sequentially by order #. Mine was 3963 (started at 3926) fyi. The email asks us to provide Vestratto with proof of shipping cost....I assume this means reimbursement. The whole shipping it back thing is...

    Vestratto has apparently begun the process of issuing RMA's to Forge owners for replacement units. I reached out since I was a 2024 420 purchaser and hadn't heard anything yet and was informed my unit will be part of the next batch they will request for exchange. Finally!

    The Wand. I have two, bought a couple years apart and my Tornado fits both the same. I use a lid from a silicone dab jar provided with my TA3 and have it inserted in bottom of Wand as a stopper. I have been using it pretty exclusively to heat my Tornado since I got it middle of last September...
