    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Glad under the jar worked as well for you as it did for me. I destroyed one and got lucky with the second one, but not perfect by any means. If DV doesn't come up with a solution, I will have to get a new set of oil jars and look into getting the holes drilled the way you suggested, although I...

    You are the only other one reporting in with holes in jar. Have you tried using your oil jar, as a spacer instead of a container? Put herb in, press jar in until flush. I get .15-.2 under the jar. Best hits to date. Let me know what you think.

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Sorry, grabbed part of this from a previous post hoping DV acknowledges it before being buried. The Ascent is well engineered and seems to have the bugs worked out of it, and although it works fine without anything in the bowl except packed herb, most feel the bowl needs some form of spacer to...

    New version was just sent out to those awaiting replacements over the past week and a half. Preliminary reports including mine, appear positive. If you can wait a week you might just sit back and watch this thread to see how it shakes out. If you are in a rush, join the party and buy one...

    Destroyed 2nd jar in an attempt to modify. At least I have one that works perfect with .15 to .2 full burn at 370. Less temp is better IMO. Had to stand in front of mirror to see vape going up stem, but it was wonderful. After watching in front of a mirror, have changed my draw technique...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Came with set. Metal shaft with 1/4" metal abrasive cone on tip. Used can with thinnest most uniform bottom out of the two and drilled from inside. Will try from outside on the second at some point. Once I have two working, will try cutoff wheel on the worst one, to try different load size...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Aloha And so testing continues: Was starting to think this was a hog compared to elbow hits on the EQ Inserting screen is hit or miss, and I don't like metal possibly scratching ceramic. Tried using some of my less desirable bud unground as spacer. Tasted less than desirable. Started looking at...

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    Aloha Really happy to report in after getting my replacement today. Cosmetics 95%: Itty bitty mar on one rail. I won't complain compared to the original. Initial burn in fumed for first 3-4 min at 430. None on second burn. Have done 3 sessions of .1-.15, with three different spacers...

    Also just got my GV replacement from DV, but have been following this thread and suggest you plow through it. 1) Have faith that DV does not want this fiasco to continue and would only be shipping out the new versions as replacements. DOA, Cosmetics, Battery not holding charge, off gassing. 2) A...

    Ascent Vaporizer - The Ordering, Shipping, & Other Nonsense thread

    Ground Hogs Day, and again I find myself waiting on the mail man. Shrike, not every place in Hawaii is like Waikiki and Hawaii Five 0. I live on the windward side of the Big Island. We catch and block most of the rain from the rest of the islands. Still nice but more black lava than white...

    Thanks, nice page. Everything except the bowl dimensions. I know it is an oval. How W, L , D?

    What are dimensions of chamber? Cut down oil can with holes?

    Didn't realize the can was that big.

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    I STILL haven't received my replacement, so I'm asking those that have. If the oil cans had holes in the bottom, could it be used as a small herb camber and install upside down?

    The Extreme-Q Vaporizer

    This is my current setup as well. 0.15 packed with golf tee (had to sand to fit, but makes a great tool), pre heat CB 230C fan 3, for 5 min. Shut off fan, drop temp to 210C / 410F, add elbow, hook to bong, and wait 5 min. The hard pack in the elbow causes more drag than the bong. Allows for...

    Ascent Vaporizer - The Ordering, Shipping, & Other Nonsense thread

    Tracking says departed Honolulu at 2AM for the Big Island. Mailman due in 1.5 hrs. I am ready! Had to go offline and hit my ExQ and settle down as it did not arrive today and I was really upset. Didn't want to rant to badly. Missed flight to BI. Post Office says it should be here and...

    I think the sombrero WILL be the solution to bowl size and rising puck. I hope DV pursues this.
