Just a heads up for UK solo 3 users - was chatting to Matt at rec vapes and he’s getting in some solo 3 cooling stems soon. Should be options for both a fixed glass screen and also a mesh hi-flow version. Worth keeping an eye on! I’ll be picking some up when they arrive. I know I won’t get any...

@Knewt Thanks for such a comprehensive answer. What specifically about the connection on the tornado versus the anvil is causing the fitment issues? You mention it doesn’t go on fully so I’m guessing it’s a shallower “socket” on the female end? Was hoping it was just a bit bigger...

I wonder if glass dosing caps would be feasible and perform in a worthwhile way? I feel like it would probably be more of a glass cup as I’m not sure how you’d make a reliable lid attachment system. The screen of the stem would act as a lid, and the bottom of the cup would have a sort of dot...

I’m so jealous, I love the look of the bakx. You’ll definitely enjoy that one, probably the best portable conduction vape out there right now. My main vape is the solo 3 which is similar to the bakx in some ways, just not as powerful but much better battery life in return. It gives me a very...

Something else that hasn’t been mentioned yet, is the type of vape being used and how that influences the effects. If I use the same dose size of the same strain there is certainly a very noticeable difference in effect based on vape choice. What vape do you use? I find when I use a convection...

@invertedisdead What are your thoughts on this sort of gasification/particle size reduction trend that has recently been revived from the ashes of the sublimator and its hotly debated claims? I see a lot of people hailing the FK-Electropath combo as the hardest hitter they’ve ever used. Then...

Isn’t it the bit branded Vestratto that is the gas chamber? So not that big relative to the main chamber. Although the coppercore runs all the way down past that too, so it seems the heat is being spread quite far into the vapour path - which gives a pretty decent surface area to heat the...

I’m quite surprised the anvil and tornado ovens are so similar in size. Only really the length where there’s a notable difference. I mean, it makes sense that there wouldn’t be a huge difference given the size of the hole in the forge. I guess I just imagined the tornado to be quite big relative...

Thanks for posting this, I really enjoyed reading it as someone looking to use it with a torch. Seems like a better anvil which is all it needed to be really. I’m especially happy this can RTL on such a small flame, one thing I like about John’s designs is how little torch power they tend to...

Another torch only user checking in. The forge is very impressive but I have the solo 3 for when I want a laid back, no effort experience that still knocks me out. For me, I find these sort of vapes very ritual based and as a result I always reach for the torch. I like to take my time, make...

This last page is such an accurate distillation of the Vestratto experience Comments about the product being absolutely top notch and then one about John/Vestratto being an arse and/or leaving a customer in a bad spot. Definitely do a chargeback if you’re going to be left with both empty...

I think I’m finally starting to get it with the on demand mode. Still not really getting any higher than I do with session mode but it’s a fun novelty and a way to get the bowl done a little quicker. I’m using a looser pack now than I do with session mode, and there’s definitely a little bit...

I’d imagine it wouldn’t need quite that much, or I hope not anyway. The tornado has 20% more mass than the anvil, and the anvil was quite happy with a dual flame or turned down Firefox in my experience. So I guess maybe a triple flame or turned up Firefox for this one? I’m very curious where...

Seeing that this is now available has really stoked my VAS. I was on the waitlist for the Anvil and got mine March ‘22, then bought all the tweaked stuff and upgrades as they launched. I know what I’d be getting into with a Vestratto launch and am fine with that. I think I’ll sit this round out...

I haven’t owned a solo 2 but I’ve got the Solo 3 as my first Arizer product. Thought I’d give some of my experience anyway just to add another perspective. The session mode on Solo 3 is quite versatile I’ve found. At 210-220c I’ve found I can finish a regular stem in around 2-3 minutes, from...

It’s since been confirmed it’ll work with the integrated stem, whoever runs the insta got corrected by John after stating it was WPA only. Seems like it’s the same connection but won’t be running a condenser? He stated it wasn’t really designed to work with it but it does, so I imagine it’s a...

I really like the look of this one. It’s very similar to the long 3d stem I’ve had my eye on but with the advantage of inverting the solo. Perhaps this will enable a looser pack to explore the supposed convection this device has I bet it’s really nice having a big glass pipe to puff on those...

Something else I love about the Solo and Arizer in general, is how big and well developed the stem market is. Aliexpress has some wonderful stuff especially, if you can wait. Although my recent order took around 7 days from order to my doorstep - which is pretty good from china. I know some...

This has been so true for me. I saw the TA as the closest thing to a joint experience, but what I get with the Solo 3 is so much closer. Absolutely right with the lower temp sessions, they produce full, tasty clouds for a good while. Even on higher temp though, I can take a series of relaxed...

Yep, I would agree with this. I’ve seen the Solo 3 described as an electric anvil (which is a vape I hold in very high regards and the hardest hitting portable I’ve used) and I think it’s a very fitting comparison in terms of extraction and signature. Unless you’re not keen on the conduction I...
