Regarding which pipe tobacco I find best. That's a hard question. For me, the most important factor is accessibility, so I go for Davidoff stuff, they are everywhere. Easy to buy though somewhat expensive. However, cost is not much of a concern since one tin lasts so long. I tend to like...

Here's my take. Pack as much as you can and push it in more. Do not under pack. Drum original is ok, but not the strongest favor-wise. Another tip is, don't draw too frequently. You have to give it time to heat up. Third, draw somewhat slowly, like sipping from a straw. In the beginning...

Thanks Nihil for chipping in. Shag tobacco works decently well too. The original Drum rolling tobacco is also pretty good in the Pax. For what I have read, it seems that the Indica may be comparable to the Pax or even better. But I have not tried it, since their version 2 is coming out soon...

Firefly is a great device in a very limited way. It's bowl is way too small for tobacco, requiring many reloads. It takes 1-2 blank draws to heat up. It requires a lot of experimenting with draw speed and how dense you pack. It requires stirring as the underside of the load gets quite...

Dear Daijo, Yes. The Pax is the all-round best portable. If the Pinnacle Pro is 100 bucks cheaper, that would change the game, but it is not. These two are really very close in my book. Use pipe tobacco in Pax is a fine choice. There are lots of "tastes" to be discovered with other...

The Pax is my daily driver. I use exclusively pipe tobacco with it. With rolling tobacco, you get only 1/2 the mileage of your tobacco, it gets tasteless real soon. However, I have found that it works adequately with the stronger cigarette tobaccos that I listed. I just can't carry the Solo...

Dear Daijo, I have completely stopped smoking cigarettes and now vaporize tobacco on a daily basis as a substitute. Sounds like you are looking for a portable device. 1) Portable devices are generally inferior to desktop devices. 2) You need to use stronger tobacco, breaking apart cigarettes...

I ordered the 05 right after the Indigogo campaign ended, and I just got it several days ago. My thoughts are: 1) Communicating with the company was difficult. I asked to be included in the Indigogo deal even though it closed. Some guy wrote back and said ok, but I never heard back. I just...

I was looking at the vapexhale site, especially at the swagger hydrafoot 2.0, which looks cool, is expensive and out of stock. Anyone got a good alternative, preferably cheaper? Dom

Thanks for the picture. I was more concerned with connecting the vapor tamer directly to the tip of the Cloud. It gets quite not and I wish to know if anyone has cracked the vapor tamer when connected to close to the heat source. Dom

Well, it didn't end up being that expensive. Bless the internet and China manufacturing. The beast of a converter I got costs less than the Cloud. Trucking costs like 5 USD and next day delivery. They sell all sorts of crazy stuff on Taobao straight from the factories, so long as you aren't...

Not sure if this is the place to post this or if there is a thread for the EVO cloud international version. Also not sure if the issue has been resolved, but if not, hope this helps someone: I live in Hong Kong, where the power is 220V. I bought a Cloud EVO off the Internet, and I connected...

Well, I don't have much to add, except that I played around will all the temperature settings, and they seem to be very elusive. I would, for example, combust at level 6, drawing somewhat slow, while a slightly faster draw at 18 would go blank. Plus, I have a tendency to draw super slow with...

Thanks for the very thorough reply. Patiently awaiting the new version. Dom

That seems to hit the jackpot. Makes sense that I am having all these draw speed difficulties since the air flow is now messed up. It also sounds like about combustion, since the intended air flow is reduced. I will try to put a piece of paper under the lid to reduce leak. Having to remove...

My experience was almost the same as Shit Shacks'. Once I combusted and started playing with the temperatures, it all gone downhill. I also had the no heating after cleanup issue, but that's gone now. It was a little more like I cleaned it and did not use it for a while. It stopped heating...

Hi Guys, I am seriously contemplating making a purchase, but I need to sort out a few questions. Perhaps they have been answered before, but after going through the last 10 or so pages, my eyes are hurting. It is probably easier to just ask away: 1) It seems that this unit is best used with...

Well, that's the problem. The same draw does not always produce the same results. The exception is slow sipping draws (that I use on the Firefly to brilliant results) almost always produce massive clouds that tastes like light combustion. I just did an experiment, turned it up to 30, then...

Need some usage tips. I have been having a hard time figuring out the draw technique. If I go real slow, I seem to borderline combust, no matter what temperature I set it at. If I go real hard, there is no vapor, also no matter what temperature I set it at. If I draw at a medium pull, it...

I am the weird guy who got onto this site because I want to vape tobacco. I have always hated smoking (the smell, going outside, stinky rooms, staying away from children after a smoke...etc.), but I loved the nicotine and needed the smoke breaks both mentally and chemically. After one...
