    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    @Norcalsun read the posts in the last few pages carefully please, I have not said a word about waxes/shatter/oil I was going to give them a chance to fix it before I went there. Ah.. The ethics of small business

    Ascent Vaporizer by DaVinci

    As CarolKing stated yours, hers and my power cord are too short. Furthermore the DaVinci webb site will not let you register a bad review about the charger due to a malfunction requiring an email address with no place to give it. Consumers are being shammed by the webb site with positive...

    When I packed my kief in the glass jar, I felt it was inefficient and required a couple of hours to cook and even then the ABV was chewy texture instead of dried and crumbly It is better to mix kief with a little bit of herb uncompressed IMO Edit: I just remembered this as I was preparing some...

    @CarolKing do you use glass flowers under the cotton. I am waiting on delivery of my cotton. Baking the flowers now thank you.

    "It" referring to the screen process . Eds stem is 2 piece. You can buy the longer water pipe adapter (very pretty) which is used in place of the mouth piece stem. I got a free WP adapter from DV so I haven't purchased one from Ed. I am not sure about your referral to one piece.

    I have not figured out pics yet. Eds stem sits deeper in tapered stem hole leaving a conical depression that the screen will wedge into. I use a small heat resistant brush to clean it each load. It works well.

    OK I have bought two Ascents, one from GotVape and one from DaVinci. Both sell for $250. Both have broken, button malfunction and power plug receptical failure. GotVape shipped out a new unit the same day they received the broken unit. The return process was quick and efficient. No glitches, and...

    I agree with OF, the glass flowers provide good heat and screening of particles and are cheap. I am really impressed with the increased efficiency provided to my Ascent with my recently received packet of flowers. Just put them on top of a load packed or not, and your vapor clouds production is...

    Actually the volume of a 5 foot long 3/8 inch inner diameter tube is 26 cubic inches, only 7% of an average adult's tidal lung volume. I disagree and do not think that is a lot of air to evacuate. A 2 inch wide 12 inch high tube of a bong has a volume of 150 cubic inches (not including the...

    I am hesitant to open my unit up as the performance is kicking my but as is. My thoughts on the subject, now on my third Ascent unit: I wonder if there are different batches of the silicon buddy seals, some with different measurements or consistency affecting the seal. The two units I have got...

    I am down for a new experience Ms CarolKing. Would you provide me with a link to a source for the organic cotton? Or do I use an old cotton t-shirt ;-) ? Or cotton from the top of a tablet bottle? I do have the glass flowers on order per your posting experiences. It just keeps getting better...

    Sorry for the delayed response Nigel, and I do appreciate your help., Being electrically inclined, that was the very first thing I did was to test with second charger. I also had a third charger in the 12V car adaptor I used as well. That would be the most obvious first step to most people. Its...

    The screen on Eds system is metal. I do not anticipate problems. The temps are so low I dont see any reactivity with the herb. The resin so far has not clogged the metal screen up. For the purist, the wood does have a different taste, not as clean. I just like not having to clean the glass. I...

    I sent my croc skin back to Davinci and got my Carbon Fiber exchange from GotVape. I love the taste. I am using my units frequently but gently. I am glad I went ahead and bought a backup unit. Its utility is proven and it will be nice having a charged backup for excursions in the outdoors. I...

    I just got an email to return my new Ascent and they asked for info regarding webb site or store etc where you purchase the Ascent. This leads me to believe they will replace your unit no matter where you got it. It will take time. That's why I have two of them, one to use while another is...

    I think current research is insufficient to show which is more toxic to the hypothalamus, the aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons produced by combustion of MJ, or the dozen or more cannabinoids that are altered by combustion to toxic cannabinoids. Both are present in burned MJ smoke. Both are...

    The cannabinoids that you don't get when you vap are the toxic ones generated by combustion. Combustion is a chemical process causing toxic substances to be produced, carbon monoxide being the one you feel prominently as a majority of the rush from combustion. Toxic cannabinoids are implicated...

    I only opened it past 90 degrees one time. Waiting for DaVinci to open. For the record. I have bought two Ascents. I returned one to GotVape.com for button problems and now I am returning the second unit to Davinci because batteries will not charge.. I bought two Ascents to have one for...

    WTF!!!! My second Ascent that I got last week has crapped out. It does not seem to accept a charge. When plugged in the screen indicates charging. However when the unit is turned on the battery screen blinks and the unit will not heat, even with the unit plugged in to the wall charger. I tried...

    I just had my first glass casualty. I was aware of the glass crumbling issue and have been careful to minimize soaking in ISO. I was removing a piece of inner glass for cleaning by pushing from mouthpiece end until bottom flair was available to grab with fingers. My gentle pull with fingers on...
