    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    Going thru the entire parts list at Hermes the only part that is listed as PTFE is the solid cone. The flexicone and flexicone + are made of food grade silicone. The loading chamber kit material is silicone and Ultem. The loading chamber wall I assume/or appears to be made of the same material...

    I did some more research on the Teflon thing from reputable sources like webMD and the EPA etc. It's PFOA (C8) which is used in the manufacture of Teflon of which the concern is about. The chemical is virtually completely burned off during the production process. Even the EPA acknowledges such...

    The Teflon worries from what I have read starts at 500F where some structure deterioration begins and decomposition starts at over 650F. The Minivap temp. is 440 max is it not? The chamber won't exceed that so I see no reason for any alarm at all. Scratching the internal chamber Teflon and...

    Mine hasn't always been the best either. I'm on Ascent #3.

    MiniVAP Vaporizer

    This is how my old unit acted when it was failing. It acted like it was functioning normal but was in fact not heating up correctly. My replacement is worlds apart and performs as it should. My advice is send it in for a checkup to Hermes or just get a replacement. I remember someone mentioning...

    Tell ya what, if yours is chugging along problem free and works consistently you have a good one.

    So did you or @mixchu69 get a tracking link? The shipping notification should have a link to that.....or are you both saying you got that but it indicates nothing shipped? Hermes is not out to scam or pull the wool over any ones eyes, so rest assured you'll get your Minivaps. Give it some time...

    Thanks. The glass mouth is as big as I hoped. Should do a good job cooling. Fit and finish on the adapter is tops. I at first thought the diameter of the opening might be restrictive but it's negligible. The snug fit with the Mini lid nipple is amazing. Kudos to the CNC Lathe and the designer...

    My tracking says it will be waiting for me when I get home from work. I just knew @mestizo was going to do us right. If you happen to take a picture of it with the vapexhale mouthpiece I wouldn't be disappointed at all......mine is still in route from vapornation. I'll use mine with my bubbler...

    This really speaks volumes when a dedicated connoisseur Vaporist as yourself, who we all know pretty much has access/privilege to probably all the newest vaporizers, speaks so glowingly of the Minivap. Your endorsement means more than you may think, at least to me it does (that's all the brownie...

    If your in the states buy from from the same vendor most of us have. They are authorized and will handle warranty issues for Hermes. Typically that means replacement. My replacement had to be 'authorized' which to me means Hermes picks up the bill, not the vendor. Spend the extra and get the...

    Wish I could help, but my Vapornation exchange did not include any info. regarding firmware. If your worried or even if you want your unit checked out, at least you are on the right side of the pond, so don't hesitate if your thinking about sending it back. Have them check it out, update it and...

    Correct. And off gassing was part of the test. The Mini and Volcano both passed from what I've read.

    So, the EVO piece has a 18 or 14 mm opening? Your answer leads me to believe its 18....just looking for clarification

    @stickstones So when you get your adapter from @mestizo, as I am also, are you planning to use a 14mm male -18mm female glass reducer with this mouthpiece?

    Pretty much sums up how I feel. The Mini still is viable to go traveling but doesn't offer the discretion the Crafty affords. The Mighty is pretty much on the same discretion level as the Mini.

    The charging brick has a light on it. It will be green if no battery is on the charging base or when battery is fully charged and will turn red when a battery is first placed on charging base to charge and during the charge process. Edit: between minnbobber and my post it should be clear.

    When the battery is twisted on to the heater the temp light starts to blink right away. If the battery is mounted already and you turn it on the last used session temp light should be solid and will start blinking between a minute and minute and a half. Pretty positive that's they way it's...
