Arizer just released their own grinder.. it kind of looks like a brilliant cut grinder lol

This should be it. Not sure if that's the latest version. I have one with the three hole downstem, it's a great inexpensive, sturdy piece. Awesone with a whip for group seshes. I like to break it up by hand for the Solo 3, myself.

I actually prefer a medium fine grind for more consistent extraction (Old Mate and BCG) that's weird Arizer would launch their own grinder, but I'd want more detail on it

I love Arizer products, so im biased. I think they're still killing it.
Over the years, Arizer has built a rock-solid reputation for quality and value, and I continue to be impressed. call me a fanboy I guess.
I recently got my hands on the Solo III v2 and the Air SE. For context, I already own the Solo III, Solo II, and the OG Arizer Air. Out of everything I’ve tried, the Solo III is my #1 favourite battery-powered dry herb vape, incredible vapour quality, great build, super reliable and CANADIAN!
The Solo III v2 is a solid evolution of the SOLO III. Some small but meaningful tweaks:
If you already have the Solo III, it might not be a must-buy, but if you're on an older model like the Solo II, the jump is definitely worth it.
Score: 4.5/5 - just shy of perfect, mostly due to the UI color and non-removable battery.
I also recently tried the Air SE Timewarp Green (Texada Timewarp nod?). It’s fun, funky, light, and super portable. Great for beach days, concerts, or hanging out in the backyard. It’s also much easier to use on a rig than the chunkier Solo III.
Even though it’s plastic, it feels solid, classic Arizer engineering. Downsides? Smaller bowl size and micro-USB charging (wish it had USB C!). I love that it still uses removable batteries, though. I also swapped out the clear stem for a black glass one and it looks chef’s kiss, Arizer, get come out with a black glass stem!
Score: 3.5/5 – great value and function, just a few design tweaks away from greatness.

The Solo III v2 is a solid evolution of the SOLO III. Some small but meaningful tweaks:
- You can now turn off the security combo key (finally!)
- The buttons feel more solid and clicky
- USB-C charging! No more hunting for a specific charger, any USB-C will work

TL;DR:
- Solo III v2 = top-tier portable vape, nearly perfect
- Air SE = fun, lightweight, super portable backup or travel vape

That see-through plastic is actually really cool, and this is a company I would trust with it more, actually a great budget play

If the bowl was bigger on the SE, id find it hard to complain about it at all
Those $200 v2s almost got me lol but No vape for me this 420 stay away vas lol.
I just got a Santa Fe shredder recently works great but I had a cheaper Amazon one and i honestly think the solo 3 can use any grind as long as its not tightly packed.
Am i missing something here? My solo 3 (bought last december) already has usb c charging.

That one only works with USB-A to USB-C or a USB-C charger that only provides 5V. The V2 uses what is now standard USB-C charging.

What would y’all say the convection : conduction ratio is with the Solo 3?

Doesn't matter, and would depend on your use. I think it is a meaningless % really...

Something between 70:30 and 80:20, depending on how you use it. Longer hot sessions will increase the conduction part

Maybe not the oldest, but possibly the fartiest!
In on demand mode, when I start a “pull”, I click the up arrow and the bars fill up as the bowl is heated. Then it beeps, and the countdown timer runs what I take the actual pull, then there’s a second “countdown” with white bars slowly change to grey. Is that the bowl cooling down?

Most likey.
I plan to use it that way when it arrives. On demand at 5 seconds if possible, and draw longer (10-15 seconds) for efficiency and to cool the bowl between hits, to stop cooking the herbs.

Correct, this is one of the new features letting you know approximately how much residual heat is left.

For those that own or have used both the V1 and the new V2...... overall would you say that the updates are definitely worth spending the extra $50-$60 for or may as well just grab one of the V1 since you can grab one now for just over $200 bucks with all the 420 sales going on?
Has anyone come across a better price for the V1 or V2 than POV?

Hot take: the Arizer Solo 3 isn't really THAT much of an upgrade to the Arizer Solo 2....

What’s your guys go to dry stems from 420EDC? Preferably one with an airport.
The v2 is $200 or $197 from “city vaporizer”

Got mine yesterday. This thing kicks ass! I love Session. This allows me to take micro hits- just the tiniest of sips. There is no doubt you can get everything out of your weed with this, and no real danger of combustion unlike Dynavap, my go to until yesterday. I got no complaints, except mine won't beep no matter how I set it, but I don't care. In the suggestions dept, a charging stand like upright cordless phones have would be cool. I like that I bought from a Canadian company.

I was under the impression that on-demand mode maintains the preset temperature while the bars drop (as you are drawing from the vape), which would make sense considering the draw time is configurable.
