Wrong thread. You should write this in the Frolic thread.

Thanks dude

I don't have a TM2 but I can experiment more in this area when I have time. I did try some on-demand sessions as low as 215C yesterday and they were quite good but it definitely helps to restrict the airflow a little. It's soooo wide open at the max airflow setting. I think I can get good results on-demand at even lower temps than 215C.
I'm starting to find the heater so powerful that I'm looking for lower temps to find the flavor/performance sweet spots. The heater can definitely easily give your flower the popcorn/burn-y taste quickly if the settings are too high.

I would say this is purely down to the airflow restriction on the TM2. If you close up the airflow by about 1/2 to 3/4 on the Frolic, you can acheive much better hits on lower temps using on-demand.
I am still learning how the Frolic works like Tigole said, to find the sweet spot, but its still surpassing my expectations in almost every way.
In terms of comparisons against the TB2, I havent really used the Frolic enough yet. The TB was my daily driver up until the Frolic arrived. The more open airflow and form factor of the Frolic are definitely advantages over the bowle but until I can get the Frolic dialled in perfectly, it still doesn't quite match up to the simplicity of the TB2 when it comes to loading, killing the bowl, and dumping out the spent herb.
More to come....

Troy put out a vid on Y.T. comparing Frolic and T.M.2
@TigoleBitties @Zero_Combustions
How does the native cooling of the Frolic and the TB2 compare? (throat irritation / coughing / vapor temp)
Also, how do they compare in terms of ease of use (being foolproof without requiring "technique")?
Oh, and vaping small loads.
Thanks!

It does an amazing job at both cooling and creating smooth vapour. I haven’t felt the need to attach it to my bong yet at all.
I’d say it’s on par with the TB2 but the vapour signature is different and because of the airflow difference it hits in a different way.
More testing needed which will take time as I’m just getting so blasted with the frolic.

With the airflow adjustments and temp its pretty agile. Heavy in vapor smoothness in my opinion is just below the tafee and above the venty. Usually when im testing a portable I struggle not grabbing a ball vape. I've used a ball vape maybe 4-5 times since I got it and that was mostly to do some side by sides
Vapor sig is interesting its venty like in my opinion but more satisfying

Interesting that you say this.
I have noticed that the Frolic terp notes just aren't as bright or pronounced as the TB2 (don't have a Venty to compare). The Frolic vapor is cool and smooth and definitely satisfying but I miss the edgy, sharp, sneeze-inducing terps you can get with the TB2. Maybe that's just me. I'll keep playing with temp and airflow and see if coax them out. I guess you're seeing a bit of the same thing having a TB2.
Same here. Agreed.
Even if the simplicity doesn't get to the point of the TB2 I can still safely say this portable will be my go-to outside the house because of the form-factor and Bowle-like capabilities.

I really enjoy his reviews and had already seen both videos he has on the frolic, but I believe most of his reviews are generally more focused on the higher end of the temp range of vapes, so i try to get input on that lower temp perspective from other sources. Thanks @TigoleBitties @Zero_Combustions for your responses. It seems the Frolic might be my next portable.

Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing.
Troy def likes to take his bowls to the brink of the vaping/charring line. He likes vapes that can blast clouds.
I don't have all these vapes, but I do platoon between a TB2 and TM2 as my daily users. I never thought of them as which is better, but just what your in the mood for. Sometimes the same bud provides a different taste or different effects through each. I'm following the thread for comments about low-temp hits for flavor and cooling. The Frolic will have to really impress me to start a new rotation. My TM2 is pretty damn perfect, re-calibrated and set below 2. I wish the TB2 had a setting between 2 and 3, but it's a pleasure to sit back with some freshly ground herb and cigar puff through the terp flavors.
