    Arizer Air II

    I don't have mine in front of me, but think you've got it but are not using it right. It toggles between on (and gives you a confirm beep) and off (and gives you a confirm silence???). Hard to confirm mute with a sound....... Try it a couple of times, I think you'll get the knack of it. The...

    Arizer ArGo

    Same ones as we use in Solo/Air. They take a bit more fussing to get in but do just fine: Much better than home made versions, heavier, preformed, trimmed and fused at the edges (don't fray) and can be torched clean easily. 'Dome up' they reduce volume, 'dome down' they keep fouling down...

    Arizer ArGo

    I agree. While flavor tends to go first, the good stuff is in there until you vape it away. Past a point, loading more doesn't produce more vapor since it's the rate heat enters the system that governs production? I go both ways. I have stems with domed screens for both Solo/Air and ArGo...

    Arizer ArGo

    Your call. But inversion is not a factor with Solo or Air (lots of guys use them inverted over WTs). Some guys take a hit or two inverted so herb doesn't contact the metal bottom, then turn it upright. It's known as 'hamster style'. Some even use Solo/Air horizontally, generally on their...

    They do, of course, as do 'all' the others? As Mayson said to Dixon, 'just draw the line.....'. They decide when to shut down. This is known as 'depth of discharge', sometimes 'DOD' in geek circles. But remember, every .1 Volt means a 10% change in useful capacity. How do you think Sales...

    Arizer Solo

    Sounds like a classic battery pack failure to me. What you describe, early charge shutdown when the strong cell is fully charged but the weak one not, will only get worse since you can't 'balance charge' the cells as individuals to reset things from outside the pack You could confirm that by...

    Arizer ArGo

    Since he sets it at 'full blast' I suspect he's try to slow ('stretch out') the heating so he can 'grab a few hits at lower temperatures' before it heats fully? That is trying to stretch the normal one minute or so to solid vapor out enough to get a few lower temp hits, rather than stepping up...

    The Arizer Air

    Great news indeed. Thanks for passing it on. It occurs to me that they never got back to me on basically the same question a while back......I guess they like you more than me (a common POV.....). I really like the 'battery indicator will be inaccurate' part. That indicator, when present (it...

    Arizer Air II

    IIRC Solo runs a bit over two Amps with two 18650s in series for 7.4 Volts (nominal). Air has to do the same work on half the voltage, so it needs twice the current (voltage times current equals Watts) so we're talking a little under five Amps? "Exactly par" for the 4.8 Amp rated cell the...

    Sounds like a 'battery friendly' routine to me. Just think, by immediately enjoying a load you don't leave it sitting fully charged......sometimes personal sacrifices must be made in the common good..... Good plan, easy to remember. Clever even. No, make that 'diabolical'....... OF

    Arizer Air II

    The one the factory uses, NCR18650B is the ideal cell for the application IMO. At least for now. Same as in ArGo. Funny how Arizer might go right to the best available.......like they did with Air 1 (different cell there). Those should work OK, but 20 Amps is not needed here. Since this...

    I'm very confident you're incorrect in that assessment. There's another discussion of charging, it's by no means 'open loop' or unregulated. Rather, quite tightly controlled. The standard routine is used in a dozen or so specially designed ICs for this use like MCP73831, LP2951 and similar...

    Only one guy can say what the right thing is for you, and that's of course you? If the goal is longest possible battery lifespan (until it 'dies' and needs replacement) that's not a very good idea for the reasons explained in the BU articles I cited earlier on the topic. Simple storage (idle...

    Arizer Solo II

    I'm sorry, I obviously wasn't clear enough. You should avoid BLAZING, not vaping! Do not avoid THC, rather embrace it, but by vaping. Avoid combustion? Combustion is a silly idea, really. I mean using THC for fuel in some ill advised fire just to heat what's left of the load up enough to...

    Arizer Solo II

    First of, howdy! Welcome to the Forum. Lots of good folks with experience based advice to share. Settle in an join the fun? Great choice with Solo/Air/ArGo! For a 'first vape', no less. Did you do your homework first, or just lead a charmed life? You're at an awkward point, right now, not...

    Not enough to worry about. I wouldn't make a habit out of it of course, but the impact is small and 'cumulative'. That is it doesn't kill it XX sooner, it simply shifts the slow degradation to come. That is it 'just wears out a bit faster', probably too little to notice? Hopefully we'll be...

    How much bud do you vaporize in an average day of use?

    I seriously doubt it, I'm not even sure what the question is? I think you have to rate consumption with potency as a factor? While average herb is a few percent, top shelf bud is pushing 20, a huge difference. A bit like asking a guy how many ounces of Alcohol beverages he drinks without...
