    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    Hey, here<=and=>there! Sorry, I wasn't trying to lecture you, but rather make a broad general point to everybody. The value in grams is from this thread, and *I *put it on the wiki. I only just a week or so realized that weight!=volume. :doh: So, if it was a lecture, it was half directed...

    Dude, the format is 5, 7, 5. Plus that's a different thread. :rofl:

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    Keep in mind that what you are really asking about is VOLUME but yet you are talking about is WEIGHT. Those are very different measurements. The VOLUME of the bowl is fixed. The WEIGHT of a material that will fill that VOLUME will vary as a function of DENSITY. Different materials will...

    Ahhh... so this is the "New type of insulation that really holds in the heat " that you spoke of before. Interesting.... Wiki updated.

    Awesome! Thanks for the update!! Will you take our money in advance of that date so it will ship on that date, or will you not start taking orders until the 15th? (I know, I know: you just gave us data, and I'm being greedy for more...) ;) Thanks for this tid-bit. I had figured there was an...

    iamn3ko -- Thank you, but no. I already know the quote. (I think I quoted it in the wiki.) Again: I don't know the ingress path for air to the bowl. I can certainly see the grill is ornamental. But that doesn't tell me about ingress (air path) to the bowl, itself. TO BE MORE SPECIFIC...

    Use grinder setting one notch above "atomize." ;) The one thing I've mentioned I'm still unclear on for the entire vape is the air ingress to the bowl. I'm just really not sure about what happens between the grille and the inside of the bowl. The rest I have knocked down. But at it is...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    Yes, you can add a bit for flavor. All of their all-natural oils (http://www.davincivaporizer.com/aromatherapy-essential-oil-blends/) currently come in cans for the previous vape. I'd suspect the cost of the glass cans is much higher, so they might not ship that way once the Ascent ships. But...

    Oh. *This* guy again. I find it amusing that people that have provided no positive contribution to this community can stand up and scream "LOOK AT ME!!! I CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO READ A THREAD NOR LEARN A COMMUNITY, BUT YET I PROCLAIM THAT MY OPINION SHALL BE TANTAMOUNT TO GOSPEL AND EVERYONE...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    How come I can't triple like a post? You mean the contest that has been going on since Monday that I didn't notice any announcement in this thread about? :) I have been secretly wondering since the March 31st date got moved, if we would hit 100 total pages by the new/actual release. I...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    This. I've been waiting for this device since as long as this thread has been around. I'll continue to wait, although I won't make any commitments about doing so patiently. :) I think DaVinci has been more than upfront with us (Although, in all fairness: "I'll post...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    I don't know what the ingress air path is for the bowl, but I do know what the egress path is. Too fine won't help. Also, smaller particles means more surface area, but it also means denser pack which means less airflow through particles. But any DaVinci owners offer some insight with the...

    Call for speculation: Anyone have an opinion on leaf vs grind for this device? Know no one has any real-world data yet, but I think I recall the "mint" in the first video was leaf.

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    I think I pulled that info from their site, but the site has changed since I first collected the info. I've asked the Rep to fact-check the doc. There are a few things I still question (eg. bowl size, croc skin faux or not, etc) Hopefully she'll confirm the warranty into has not changed.

    I'm probably going to get flamed for this, but the burls still haven't grown on me. I like the previous wood better. :( I might go back to basic black as it is less attention grabbing.

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    Already been discussed in thread, but it has been shown next to an iPhone and is about as thick as two (depending on model) stacked. As the wiki is (still) down: ===Dimmensions=== * 4.47" (119.36mm) tall, 2.24" (56.85mm) across and 1.03" (26.04mm) wide. * About equal to the DaVinci in weight...

    Ascent Vaporizer by Da Vinci (pre-sale thread)

    I think Spirit was saying "I know this is an Ascent thread so excuse my PAX comment" and not a comment on you. That's what I read anyways... And I thought that suggestion was not a bad one for the Ascent... if you don't mind a metal screen in the path. That statement is false. It is in...
