If your definition of “objective” includes willfully omitting negative aspects of the user experience (and an error that needs to be manually patched via pc on a just-released device is certainly a noteworthy negative) then I stand by my opinion that your contributions regarding this device are...

If you don’t feel the need to provide objective coverage (i.e. both the positive and negative) I personally feel that this thread would benefit from no further contributions from you. Hyping how amazing this device is while not mentioning negative issues (like this clearly...

My only takeaway from this is that vape manufacturers are truly atrocious at conveying information.

It’s literally the very first thing on the Classifieds page, in blood red, starting with “Don’t get banned”. I was going to say it’s impossible to miss, but I guess it’s just extraordinarily difficult to miss?

And if you’re really looking to maximize your weed (and enjoy the effects of edibles), you can toss that cotton straight into a cup of hot cocoa or a latte. Just fish it out before accidentally drinking it.

I wouldn’t give it a second thought. The plastic used in this sort of application isn’t brittle enough to produce much dust from the treatment you describe, and the difference between vaping “none” of this plastic and “an invisible but theoretically existent amount” is going to be pretty much...

Is there any reason to think they wouldn’t? All of the units sold should still be under warranty at this point.

I recall some early discussion of it possibly having a two-stage heater (possibly wire for the instant heat up and a ceramic heater for sustained heat?). Anyone ever do a full tear-down and see how this is actually working? It definitely feels like the heater behave differently when drawing slow...

Having spent a lot of time over the last year+ checking back for updates on their site, I’m not completely convinced that they ever received a full re-stock after the first batch. I can see why they’d be cagey about new developments, but I’d still love some more transparency about what’s...

ETA for restocking just got pushed back to 2023. I really hope they roll out a v2 at that point; the original is great despite the known quirks but after two years they really need to be addressing the quirks.

Sure! This comment of yours makes it pretty clear: Taking the comment “I'm just not buying a vape based on a single positive review” and turning it into insinuation that they can’t afford it is a cheap rhetorical gambit that just makes you look like you’re not engaging in good faith.

Wow, that’s a nasty, dishonest comment (you’ll note that the comment you’re replying to makes absolutely no mention of the relative value of $400 to that particular member).

Is it normal for a retailer to buy out a completely untested v1.0 release but not acknowledge it at all (no pre-sale, no ‘coming soon’, no hype or even acknowledgment whatsoever)? In my industry, this rollout strategy would be seen as unspeakably bizarre, and a huge red flag that shit is not...

I’m just saying that I don’t see any way to do a group buy without their involvement. If they want to get their product into the hands of experienced users, they could (but aren’t). Makes you wonder, no? At the very least, it makes me wonder 🤨

So is Brandon ever going to join the thread? I don’t know how you expect this to happen without a company rep joining us.

50% MSRP is pretty standard pricing to retailers industry-wide, it’s certainly going to be a healthy margin above cost. Any idea why no one seems to be selling these, if they’re already in production? The whole situation remains quite weird, tbh.

We’re talking about a company whose idea of promotion for this device was hiring an OnlyFans model to make a video of themselves fiddling with it (and then declaring it “🔥”) on Instagram. I hear good things about Evolv’s engineering chops, but they seem pretty far out of their depth when it...

What’s the other shop?

My thoughts exactly. Check out https://www.instagram.com/evolvapor/?hl=en, it’s sort of like a parody of how not to launch a product in 2022.

Here’s the initial explanation: So according to this, Evolv decide to have a mom and pop smoke shop beta test their brand new $400 wax pen. So far, so good (they’re in the same neck of the woods, so this seem plausible so far). Then they ship the store their first non-beta-unit shipment (to...
