    While I get the idea of 'a vape is a vape, how it works isn't really important', this is clearly (to me) not the case here. One is a conduction vape with a temperature sensor that gives an indication of the heat. The other is a convection vape which allows for different size loads (more than...

    I disagree with this idea, there is a substantial difference between the two. VG has a heat exchanger where the DV depends on stored heat for the hit. This means, for instance, you can replace the heat during the hit. This keeps the delivered heated air at at even level rather than the ever...

    .....well, there's size...... While it's popularly held, "size doesn't matter" there are other opinions out there? Sessions per charge is also much different (of course). Regards to all. OF

    Solo 2 Temperature gos above the temp I pick when temp stepping then back down?

    Never noticed it, but don't doubt you. I has to be an artifact though, we know the teal temperature can't jump 11 degrees in an instant. And even if it could, the load temperature (what really matters) is sure to lag behind. I suggest you not worry but enjoy this excellent vape. Regards to...

    Not to worry. This one is easy once you understand what you're doing (and what the rules are). Butane is liquid in the can and lighter, at least part of it is. As long as there's the tiniest bit of liquid, the pressure is determined by temperature. Heat it up a bit and more liquid will...

    Arizer Air MAX

    A personal call for sure. While the two vapes listed share many features, there are still differences (replaceable battery, form factor, etc.) that individuals will value differently? Let is celebrate the capitalist market that provides us with such options! Regards to all. OF

    Arizer Air MAX

    Yer welcome. Frankly there ain't no such animal as 'hybrid heating' when it comes down to making vapor. The key is how the additional heat gets into the hot load (say 390F?) to support production of more vapor. For convection to contribute the air entering the load must be substantially...

    Arizer Air MAX

    First off, don't do "“cigar puffs” to encourage convection" since this is a conduction vape, no useful convection going on (as you've discovered). Air drawn in is only very modestly heated passing through the tiny surface area of the vent walls. This is why 'heat soaks' are important...

    Arizer Air II

    Not to worry, yer in the majority. You've got us nerds outnumbered by wide margins. Good show it's not subject to decision by voting....... With nobody left to enforce Ohm's Law, those electrons would be running around wherever and doing whatever the hell they wanted to. Regards to all. OF

    Arizer Air II

    No, that's not how electricity works. Devices draw from the available current in keeping with Ohm's law. Not the maximum available. Consider the 60 Watt desk lamp you're using (.5 Amps or so) doesn't blow up when plugged into the outlet capable of 20 Amps. The battery in your car delivers...

    Yes, in this case 'more is better'. Enjoy your new vape. Solo/Air is a great vape for sure. Regards to all. OF

    Arizer Solo II

    Expect it to arrive not fully charged (for maximum battery lifespan). Fully charge it before first use, then afterwards avoid full charges (stop at 90% or so when you can, again for maximum lifespan on the useful life of the internal battery. Start low in temperature, say 390F, for best...

    Yeah, I recall you........you sit in the front row, just right of center. Always had the right answer, even if you did nod off from time to time? Regards to all. OF

    A truly powerful machine for good for sure. And versatile at the same time. Since you (we) control the heat a host of techniques are available to suit your taste, long term or as they chang. The same machine, torch and load can give mild, flavor filled hits or massive clouds (considering the...

    Arizer Solo II

    I'm with you here. I too find a slight advantage to the OG Solo. The model with 'true PA' ability, back before we demanded 'use while charging'. My theory is it's due to the (original) smaller ports in the cup (another 'improvement' we insisted on....). The built in restriction forced...

    The answer to this question, which nobody seems to have actually answered, is 'probably not'. Unless your unit is quite new, the hole in the wooden body is too small. The pan and 3 legs are captive, having been assembled 'in place' (from the top and bottom) before the tubes are crimped in...
