    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    Amen. My Vectra EVO has been my daily driver since the release. I also have a Cloud. Fired it up some months ago just for the helluva it. Good grief, that thing gets hot. But it also vapes soooo powerfully. I haven't seen any desktop since the EVO that is remotely as powerful yet smooth...

    Whoops, I didn't realize that. :ko: I've change my vote. Now I have only 23 compatriots, as a member of the rapidly dwindling crowd. :uhoh: :myday::peace:

    Age of the FC Community plus a lot of nostalgia

    This poll was taken in 9 years ago. I was old then. Now I'm very old. But not dead yet. ⚰️ You folks are still kids. :lol: :myday::peace:

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud

    Good grief Stu :wave:, it's been 12 years since the Cloud was announced! My OG is in my attic. In my will I provide for it to be buried with me, along with my cat. I figure I won't mind the OG's being so bloody hot when I'm on the other side., whichever direction I may go. My backup Evo I'm...

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud

    Yes, and no. My first OG unit was from the first or second production batch, but it died. Seibo replaced it with a unit after he had made some internal changes, IIRC particularly to the heater. I opened the first unit hoping I could repair it. The board electronics was fairly simple, but to...

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    I've purchased a hydrafoot (base, stand) and ELB's from Vgoodiez, all good. The site has a search tool, but it can take a few different query terms to find parts. They still have the tree HT that Hanu was selling of recent; I bought one from Hanu and it performs nicely. :myday::peace:

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    Unfortunately, warranty coverage is gone with the company. I opened a couple of OG's years ago to evaluate repairs. While the guts were improved with the EVO and then again not long after its release, I doubt that the architecture was changed (these devices are electronically quite basic)...

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    I didn't see the announcement. Just checking in as I periodically do, only to learn about the shutdown. I'm not surprised. When Seibo sold out he left the brand behind but took the vision and soul of the company with him. When the Petra was announced, a lot of the earlier owners who...

    Discontinued Vapexhale Petra (Upgraded Evo?)

    All three of my Clouds - ticker OG like yours, fanatic evo, standard evo - still going strong. Btw, re the fanatic: I checked with Hanu after the VXL "merger", was told that the "lifetime warranty" is still being honored. :myday::peace:

    Mobius Glass

    Yes indeed, this is a very personal thing and so testing yourself is the only route to take, if you can. This is the first I've heard of that back pressure/blow back effect. I've never experienced it. There is agreement that the main difference is the greater volume of the Micro. The...

    Mobius Glass

    I have an Ion Matrix, Micro Matrix, and a Reti. I'm not sure which/what you are referring to about the flare, which I presume you mean is near bottom of the can (like the perc is) ; the Reti is exactly that (i.e., just like the Micro but different bottom). Fwiw, my take . . . These days, I...

    Discontinued Vapexhale Petra (Upgraded Evo?)

    I don't know what the financial arrangement was, but clearly for all practical purposes Vapexhale exists now in name only. There are many people who have been loyal to VXL out of their warm feelings for Seibo and the vision he brought to the vape industry. Many here know I have been one of...

    Discontinued Vapexhale Petra (Upgraded Evo?)

    Thanks for sharing that. The video link in the email from Ricardo that I posted above, is broken. The vid certainly answers a lot of questions. My takeaway is that it's a larger version of the EVO with an up-venting air chamber to facilitate better heat dispersion, handles to provide better...

    Discontinued Vapexhale Petra (Upgraded Evo?)

    I just received a LinkedIn email notification of this post by Seibo under his "Seibo Knows" account . . . It is followed by a post by Ricardo Willis, who apparently is "Hanu Labs". I don't know whether the post is publicly viewable or not, but it is essentially the same verbiage as on the...

    Discontinued Vapexhale Petra (Upgraded Evo?)

    IMHO, the Petra is a good example of why VXL really bit itself in the ass when it blew off the "Beta Test Group" abruptly following the Hanu Stone announcement. I'm pretty sure that we would have said that there is one helluva lot of marketing-speak here but very little about the unit itself...

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    EDIT: Sorry, didn't see your previous post which has already had replies. So as you know, the short answer is one analog control for temp. That said, and knowing what you have been using, I'll keep my prev answer below fwiw . . . When the original Cloud was released in 2012, there was...

    Received a notification of this LinkedIn post by Seibo re his future directions, may be of interest for old friends here and Evo owners in general . . . https://www.linkedin.com/comm/feed/update/urn:li:share:6832028363016806400 So long and best of luck, Seibo. :wave: :myday::peace:

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    I didn't see your guys' discussion earlier, so just fwiw . . . there was a LOT of discussion after release of the first Cloud about PBW and other cleaning methods. The glass sold by VXL then was larger and better than the current HT's, plus a lot of us brought serious pieces like Mobius to the...

    Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

    What did VXL say about it being 14mm instead of the advertised 18mm? Frankly, that would tick me off. :myday::rockon:
