    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Also remember to clean inner part of wooden sleeves with q-tips or pipe cleaners. Man, that wooden sleeve looks nice! I can't wait to try it out. B4 1st use ISO cleaning

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    The info sheet Mad sent with the Tempest Nov drop recommended 590 F / 310 or 320 C. That's what I remember. Start there as a baseline. Be cautious of going OVER those recommendations due to combustion. Also be cautious of doing back to back hits at those temps because you will combust 100%...

    Please be sure to post your impressions once you get to know your Tempest. I feel pretty much the same as RedZep here. This is one of the few vapes I can use that word: love. It is wonderful to get on here and exchange ideas and see how others people react. Like RedZep, it certainly gets...

    Hand feel. I've not timed it, but I guess the Tempest cuts medication time for me down to 1/3 of the time it took with a vapcap. So now I maybe need a solid 7 to 10 minutes with my Tempest. (Screw the old way.) Vapcaps took at LEAST double that with a high powered torch. Question for current...

    Congratulations! You will be happy with the Tempest and the Reload. Skip the vapcap; it's third rate to the Tempest.

    On my Revolve 2, the wooden stem gives me more of a "joint vibe." Great feel. I tried my Revolve wood sleeve on the Tempest head. Feels good. Feels joint-like. But I switch my setup once in a while to glass (Revolve glass or DynaVap BB9). I'll have to wean myself off the full titanium Tempest...

    That would be nice, wouldn't it? I don't have a money tree, but I like to trade tips and ideas here to help me get the most efficient use of my herb. Also, I do think Mad Heaters deserves appropriate positive user feedback. I am not ashamed to say I am pinching every penny I can to save up for...

    Wow. That would be a tough call, but I agree with VapingYogi with financial priorities. I also agree that putting the cap together is not so fun (but totally worth it). It took me 3 or 4 times to get it right, but I have since learned how to only use the Wand and a timer: I now count 10-15...

    For those considering a Tempest on the new drop on/around Jan 10, don't buy one if you love your other vapes. For me, the Tempest takes first place for the reach test (now 9 times out of 10). The Tempest checks all the right boxes: efficient with herb, amazing taste, portable, stealthy, and...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Same here. The mouthpiece was SUPER hard to remove. I got a flat plastic spudger (like the 2nd from far right here on Amazon), and slowly wedged it up enough to finally pull it apart. After having done that 2 or 3 times, I replaced the o ring down inside the stem (the little one) with super...

    Update on Tempest Taste, Bowl Size, Temperature, and Miscellaneous When I woke up this morning and went through my Saturday wake and bake ritual with my trusty Tempest, I felt inspired to give more concrete info on a post I made several pages back. At one point of my review, I wrote that it...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    I have been enjoying the amazing Tempest over the last week. For me, I have reached for the Tempest 4 out of 5 times, and my new Venty is pissed off at me for paying so little attention to it. I can get super milky clouds out of the Tempest in a way that just is not possible from the Venty; I...

    The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

    Once we manually calibrate the heat disks, will we be able to hear the click(s)? I hope this question does not come across as idiotic. I've tried to find an answer by going back through this thread. Maybe I overlooked something. If so, my bad. The pre-release info (red box) states (from...

    Venty by Storz & Bickel

    True. I agree, badbee, but they could have been transparent from the get-go. When one of my kids tells me the truth straight up without fibbing or stalling, I take that into stock when I think about what consequence, if any, that child deserves. Honesty goes a long way in my book. With the...

    I have a question about the following bullet point: Bowl screen is low quality, hard to use in half bowl setting This is from https://madheaters.co.uk/products/tempest-titanium-kit page in the red box, the pre-release info. Can you use a Dynavap screen (or any that are same in size) to...

    Venty by Storz & Bickel

    Is there any info when the Venty will be available in the USA (in California)? The "out of stock" and "launch" or "relaunch" are mixed messages. That’s a huge let-down. Is there any clarity? I just checked S&B site. It still looks out of stock. No notice, no nothing. I would have thought...

    Snag it. If you have a VPN, turn it off for the order. Retry.

    Wow. Check that out. All gone in less than 10 minutes. I knew it. These went like hotcakes. As far as the discs go about calibration, check out the link from the page you ordered on, bumaye.

    Congrats rebelFarmer and Jojofernz, I, too, have a confirmation of my order! Man, I can't wait to try that out. Like you, I've been drumming my fingers patiently. Amazing what the VAS can do to you, huh? Good hunting everyone. Based on my experiences with Mad, this is going to be fantastic.

    I am new here, but I am a fan of Mad Heaters and eagerly await the Tempest release. The wait is horrible, isn't it? One cheap and effective way to create a tube to hold the Tempest (or any thin device like a BB9 or longer glass straw): 1. buy PVC pipe, 2 caps for it, and cut it to the...
