I have already stopped counting how many times I caught it overheating.
It's amazing me how lucky I must be that I've never let the overheat go as far as doing any damage.
I hope the final field testing is going to end up well, I don't think i could keep this luck forever.
With a larger ELB, you would need to stir. Changing them is easier.
I think their size is perfect, large enough to pack a punch, but not too large that would need stirring on large loads and be too messy with small loads.
The EVO has a 250W heater. VapeXhale were going to send us a 300W converter to run the 110V EVO internationally before figuring out it wouldn't help.
So I think 90W isn't enough.
I remember my Cloud+ ran hotter about 1 hour mark when the ambient temp was hotter (summer).
With the EVO, I haven't experienced such difference yet. Recently it is really hot around here and the EVO is still giving the same ammount of heat and same tasting vapor.
I think the swagger has nice slits and the right angle on the intake can be good for catching particles before they gunk up the chamber.
I like the look of the Evolver one better and it's proportions. Also I don't get why the perc is set so high on the swagger one. Maybe for a HF it can be a...
I think an all-glass heater is much more important then all-glass delivery if you want pure tasty hits. And it has still got that.
edit: Also I think the silicone is not going to get hot after one or few nails.
I could tell from the videos you don't pull as much air through as when vaping...
Not yet, but if I'm not mistaken there's a bulb as a heater and most reviews I've seen reported the casing to feel slighty cheap.
I think nobody dropped one yet, but I assume a Volcano has much better chances surviving that.
The durability, reliability and overall quality of evcery single Volcano part is so high that it makes it cost too much for its function.
I don't hate the Volcano at all, it's a great vape, not the tastiest or milkiest, but overall it IMO rightfully belongs to the top 10 of vapes or so.
It's...
Yes I know I've been hearing jumping electricity and that's bad. I've only done it once on testing purpose to see if it does it - to confirm it does.
Normally I am flipping it as fast as possible.
Today, I've failed to switch off the EVO properly - didn't push enough and the switch went back on - it made the unit go into red light glitch instantly.
There is a gray area in the middle of the power switch. The faster I flip the switch on, the less probability of it starting straight into...
Same here. But so far the reliability of EVOs seems a lot higher than the old Clouds. I mean... my old Cloud would definitely crack the first time it would slighty overheat like this. However the EVO has already survived several of them.
The new enclosure, replaceable bamboo and removable...
Powering complex electronics directly from the outlet must be a real challenge.
Volcano is powered like this, but is actually much simplier inside (and still i think there has been years of R&D to make that happen). Especially an analog one, which I think is completely electronics-free.
7th...
Yes, these hydrafoot lock the hot air in the bottom of used HT and as it coolds down, the resulting underpressure sucks some water up the perc.
It never overflowed in my HTs (my circ has slightly taller perc so it's difficult to overflow and my Vertigotree has too little air volume in the bottom...
Damn, this thread is still not buried. :(
Got another update e-mail about the progress.
After some firmware tweaks and a lot of smooth running they got another single case of overheat, fixed that and are testing further.
After this I totally undestand why are they testing so much now.
How many...
So it looks like the Czech Republic is not anymore the only country criminalizing seeds and pots and lamps and ferts and soil and sun and...
It was so tragicomical seeing so many organized police raids on growshops in a single day in such a small country.
I didn't know if I should laugh or cry...
I think its normal. When my EVO is heated up and I start pulling on it hard repeatedly just to suck out the heat, the unit doesn't expect that and goes red quickly, but it also cathes up and heats back up quickly.
I'm not surprised putting a cold mass of glass makes it go solid red for a while...
I think the LED green range is linear, while the temperature range is not.
On the lower heat (2 hrs or lower) the green range is very narrow around the dialed. But as you go to the high heat, the heat difference per dial difference gets smaller and so the green LED range gets wider. When on max...
