@electrokho82 Any chance you could fully charge the wand and tell us how many bowls in the tornado you get before the wand dies and needs recharging? Doing that same heatup you did in the video please :)

Exactly what I was about to comment and you beat me to it. Wouldn’t want to go any darker than that, it’s my ideal roast. They got excellent vapour production too. To do that in under 30 seconds with the wand (widely available here in the UK, and relatively affordable too) is to me the single...

That is crazy how well it works with the wand compared to prior models. I know the thermocore was already a lot better than the dura/coppercore with the wand, but this seems to blow all of them out of the water in terms of heating time and results. Really seems like you could daily drive the...

Speaking of the lack of instructions.. I still remember getting my first Anvil, and it genuinely took me about an hour of trying to work out how to open the airflow before I gave up and searched online to find the answer. That old airflow valve hated me. I ended up leaving it fully open to stop...

That is so odd that your device did that. When I was first learning to pack it right I had half the material fall out the stem and onto the oven floor at 220c, other than a charred taste I had no combustion. I don’t think I could combust in mine if I tried! From what I’ve read the temp settings...

Regarding the charring of the bottom of the load - I totally agree with @TigoleBitties that the majority of cases are from the load expanding as it heats up. That’s certainly been my experience. You can use a standard stem sized load in the XL stem, this way it pushes it further from the oven...

I like this, makes a lot of sense to me. You’d obviously still get some condensation in the stem or glass piece but it wouldn’t happen as early in the vapour path, so it’s likely you’d be getting more actives by the time it hits your lungs relative to the anvil. You make a very good point IMO

I’d love to see a new Air model with this heater, especially if it was a simplified session only device with a more straightforward UI. Would be a great addition to the lineup that doesn’t step on the S3’s toes too much. Would definitely pick one up to take down the pub or walking the dog. That...

Thank you for writing this up. I’ve said it to a few people doing these long form Tornado impressions but I really do enjoy reading them

@hotmeals Agree to partially disagree then ;) On another topic, I’ve noticed the majority of you with tornadoes seem to be barely using or not using your anvils at all. Seeing as it’s said the vape signature is different between them, do any of you see a future where both of them have a role...

I disagree, I don’t see how such an unstable situation can be managed in a way that it makes a meaningful difference in terms of smaller particle numbers available whilst also being at a manageable temperature to breathe in. I really do think the resulting vapour from a theoretically successful...

We’re all going to be sucking on our holes now aren’t we…

@hotmeals In fairness to inverted. He was using some simplified analogies and imagery to help visualise his point for someone like me with limited technical knowledge. I mean with respect to John, he’s kept his claims quite vague so there’s always some wiggle room when the claims inevitably...

Don’t forget that 95% convection thing in the sneaky Pete interview that he totally didn’t make up on the spot. John says some wacky stuff sometimes but at the same time he inarguably makes world class vapes @eyevape not sure if you’re interested in some technical discussion about it, but if...

I don’t really know to be honest with you. I’d imagine it’ll be a slight revision of the flare in future batches that makes the change, unless there’s a way to update the firmware over the wire with a PC. It will work as it is though, just not sure where the performance ceiling would be when...

Maybe that could be the case. Saying that though, I’ve watched many of his vids shot in the same spot and lighting as I quite enjoy them - the AVB is still light relative to AVB from other vids. I’d love to know what’s going on there I’m not sure about blacksmithing prices or the process in...

Yeah it works, check out @Custom Flower Hardware who runs theirs with a flare. I can’t remember if I saw the vid on here or vaporents but it works pretty well. His AVB isn’t particularly dark though, I’d love to know if that’s a conscious choice by CFH to run it low or yet more wattage...

Obviously subjective but I think the flare is the better next gen IH anyway. Better form factor, and the battery situation is preferable to those power tool ones the forge uses. Those ones the forge uses aren’t that widely available internationally compared to 18650 cells. BFG just need to...

@TigoleBitties @Rodney Okay so I’ve taken your advice and had a play around with the screens in the stem. I get it now. It does help to keep the holes in the stem clear by sort of lifting the load off it. I do find that the screen falls out very easily when debowling so it’s not great for on...

Interesting… I’ve always thought the max airflow was dictated by the oven as that’s what I’ve read, but if these stems unlock extra airflow I’ll be very happy to be wrong! Looking forward to trying the hi-flow even more now. Do you notice any impact on flavour with the metal mesh screens? Yeah...
