    Hey, as long as you're asking......I lost my innocence a while back? It's been a while I guess, but somehow I think I'd like at least some of it back...... TIA. I'll standby. OF

    Arizer Solo

    Welcome to the world of Customer Support, and the joys it brings. You're lucky, you got to pick the player, real CS guys have to play the cards dealt to them. Every time you answer the phone a new adventure begins. You want some real fun, try doing it by phone with a guy 10 or so time zones...

    Vaporizing Tobacco (not e-cigs)

    Really? Smoking is safer than vaping tobacco? Isn't vaping tobacco extract what e-cigs are all about? IIRC don't you vape nicotine from tobacco at lower temperatures than THC from herb? Much lower than combustion. Do you have any references on this 'safer to smoke' idea? TIA OF...

    The Arizer Air

    Yes. For maximum battery capacity and long life always fully change (many recommend 'overcharge' the first time) before you use any product using this class of batteries. Ideally they come shipped (and stored) at about 70% charge and should to be 'charged to the top' the very first time before...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Howdy, welcome to the Forum. Sorry you're having troubles, but I think your unit's fine. Yes, that's too low. Try 390F as a starting place. And until you get the hang of things, don't short load the bowl and keep the jar somewhere else (it's not designed to do what you're trying to do and...

    This seems to be a common fate. I suspect it happens when a Suit (Sales type) asks the fatal question 'how are we going to make this work with concentrates?'. IMO a halfhearted late attempt at best. The idea defies the rules of thermodynamics since for any useful flow of heat (in calories)...

    They might (anything seems possible these days), but mine didn't come with one. I suspect 'the old cotton trick' would work here too. And yes, I vote you are crazy. Not necessarily for this of course. While it's not a requirement for membership (AFAIK), it does seem mighty common around...

    Sorry you're having troubles, but IMO the return of the station is a ways off and it itself was an alternative to the traditional torch (which 'always works'). What sort of torch are you using? How big do you have the flame adjusted? Does your herb dry out and darken? TIA OF

    The Arizer Air

    Bummer. While Ataxian is our broken glass expert around here, I can confidently say that guy has gone to stem heaven. You might consider using the plastic topped stems for GonG duty? The still break too, but are 'always in stock' and ten bucks each....... Better luck with the next one. OF

    So I just timed mine. Cool to the touch, 69F room, 26.1 seconds to solid green. Agreed ambient temp is a factor (it'll take longer lce fishing), but for 'normal room temperature' that seems mighty fast to me, and on the 'safe side' of half a minute. That much is impressive so far......at...

    Indeed it is. And "IMAG55" still gets it for $54.99 shipped to you. Yes, I tested it. Some dealers might be happy to take your money when they don't actually have stock to ship, but not Randy.......... OF

    Spot on Lady! On both counts. I'm with you completely. Trying to help the new guys out with honest experience to aid their buying choices is why I think a LOT of us are here. Good folks to hang with, IMO. Thanks for once again calling it clearly and simply. Yes, I did or I would not have...

    Well, actually they are quite real. Mine is charging right now (got here a few hours ago). It seems I'm not alone in buying them, stock out now. Not at all uncommon? We disagree some on PIU, I think they're a top notch operation, very solid and supportive of this Forum. While some reviews...

    Discontinued Thermovape Cera

    That really wouldn't lower cost much. At least in SS. IIRC the cost of the body was less than the ceramic doughnuts and plate or the Zirconia core rod (ironically the most expensive part). A screw machine made those parts in under a minute each all night long unattended. They even load fresh...

    FlowerMate Vapormax V/V5.0/V5.0S/V5 Pro

    Thanks for the infromation. This improved air path idea looks a lot like the Mini? I don't (yet) have a larger FM, but my Mini seems to draw through the bottom. While I'm OK with the higher 'low' temperature (it's where I use Solo/Air), I understand how some guys like lower. But also agree...

    Arizer Solo

    IMO, yes. If you like Air, you should like Solo even more in some key areas. Like longer charge life (twice the battery, half the number of recharges needed), more steps of temperature control and a much more useful 'battery level meter'. IMO it's easier to hang onto and use for casual (not...

    Discontinued Thermovape Cera

    How about ESV? Isn't it made here? I realize many consider California a foreign land..... The 'USA sourced materials' is a tough nut folks would have to want to pay extra for it, as we did with TV. I fear most buyers would go for the lower cost. I understand that the US car with the...

    Thanks for the reply and the details. I get it you don't like the looks of any of the FMs, nor it seems there performance? However, I seriously discount claims based on blazing. That's not the discussion going on here, notice the Forum name? We're about 'different/better than blazing' I...

    Indeed, why? I'm guessing the Mini has the size issue locked up, and being all glass or metal (no plastic) in the vapor path might have the taste advantage? IMO the Mini will be a tough standard to beat in those two key areas, your saying that's a given sets high expectations indeed. So...
