    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    Why thank you for bothering to do a search and/or read a thread before positing a question. We don't yet know exactly which batteries are being used. So far we only have speculation as to the exact units without confirmation. {see the wiki} But that being said: *ROUGHLY* a charge cycle life...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    You were given a choice as to which item you'd like to see (and where you heard about the Ascent). It has been mentioned that there are plenty of give-aways, but not sure if that is plenty of EACH choice or plenty ACROSS all choices.

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    From the email: "Note that demand may exceed supply, so registrants will be notified in the order received" Keep in mind that it cost people nothing to pre-reg. So a lot of those numbers are just not going to complete a sale (or might wait until there are reviews out first). But I think they...

    db- This has been discussed before. All -- And honestly we are so close to having units "in hands" that would it really hurt to wait just a bit more for real-user data? It's one thing when we have months to go and little info. But where we are all at now, we know pretty much everything that...

    Just speculation. And let's all hold off on the speculation for a while. I'm sure the rep is waiting until she has hard data/facts before reporting back to us.

    3 days ago? On a Sunday? Wasn't the 5th the day the printed boxes were to arrive? On a Sunday? Wasn't the originally anticipated release date on march 31st, also a Sunday? You people seem to expect to get a lot of work done on Sundays. :P

    Maybe it works THAT well. :lol:

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    Sorry, I do get that the joke is for FB (or is FB a joke? Or both?), but I was making a grand tally of prizes being sent out, which I make to be 5 total. I do believe the early contest winners did say the would post reviews for us (hoping they get units early), but still 5 units out there...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    Hoping that the contest winners get theirs pushed out the door a bit early. I believe they said they were up to the job of posting first reviews. (at least the contest winners that have been announced. Still waiting on the Haiku announcement (should have been Monday IIRC), and not sure when the...

    Yup. Noticed that. Most everything that can be said about a non-existent (in the marketplace) device, has already. Also have noticed a drop in new posters to the thread asking basic (already addressed) questions. Guess we'll have to wait until the new thread gets opened to see a flood of those. :)

    Sooooo.... One week to go, and we still have 7 more pages to fill before this thread gets retired. It's been kinda quiet in here.

    Not even that complicated. Chuck Norris just glares at the bud, and it spontaneously vaporizes itself. [I don't FB, so if that was the original joke, apologies]

    By all means! Modify to your delight. That't the nice thing about this vape: you are given glass to start with, then modify as needed! I never left. There are effectively two screens: The one at ingress, and the one at egress. Either would not be hampered by a additional screen... if your...

    As suggested. So let us spend the next 13 days *NOT* posting these deliberate attempts to influence search engine rankings. Sam is very correct. Our rep has told us more times than it is worth to count that a) not everything from the company is from her, b) that social media experts are...

    It locks/snaps into several positions. I believe it was said this was done through the shaft itself, to control rotation.

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    All -- You do realize these sites are designed to increase rankings for their sales sites, and every time this thread links to them get reposted (like in a Reply) that only increases the google-juice. In the run-up to launch, we will see much more of this. I'd suggest ignoring it and not...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    I think the issue has been settled in other threads that having 100% of either is rare, and the reality is that most stuff is PREDOMINATELY one, but it is difficult to escape the other. (For convection: there has to be a surface area exposed, as this is not being done in Zero G. For conduction...

    Good point. But the PAX is predominantly conduction, so it will continue to burn the material. (Or this is my understanding from what I have read from PAX owners.) So the effect might be more pronounced in the PAX???

    Point well taken. :) But some people like stats (regardless of how applicable they are when it comes down to it) so I'm trying to get clarity for them. Plus, for those of us that don't finish the entire thing in one sitting, having a larger capacity bowl, is kinda like the old bowl+storage...
