I have been really careful with the cap, and not touching the induction sleeve has helped keep the finger marks to a minimum, But I have noticed scratches on the very top of the VI. I guess it's inevitable, and it probably can be polished out so it'd not a huge issue

Very nice! Out of interest what temperature settings are you using? 310—330c seems to to be my preferred choice

That is just ridiculous! I got high from just watching the video I've got some node CBD hash at the moment, and it's great in the Tempest. It's very squidgy, but it doesn't melt, so I just make little tiny balls of hash and fill the bowl halfway

It's a preference for me. I like to keep my AVB on the lighter side. I do one big lung buster, and a much lighter second cycle if I think there is a little bit left. If I get it right the AVB looks like cigarette tobacco. It looks light, but it's completely spent. I get similar results from...

Are you using a wand now? If so try setting the airflow on the cap open, and stem on closed setting I'm now using the wand at 320c, on auto mode, waiting till it times out. With the standard zirc balls it rakes a few seconds to ramp up. Gently give a few little mouth to lung draws. I like to...

I've been using both the wand, and a triple flame torch. I don't think torching has changed the colour of the cap. I'm doing my best to not touch the bare metal, and so far there is very little discolouration so I think fingerprints are the culprit rather than the flame

I normally need to reheat my bowl twice to fully extract, and I get about 6 full cycles. I always have spare batteries, but I'm finding a triple flame torch works best for me at the moment

Yes, orings are ISO safe. The only part not ISO friendly is the the wood sleeve If you have the metal stem you don't need to take it apart, although it is recommended for a deep clean

Yes, I was team half bowl for the first week and I had good results straight away . I'm probably doing 2/3 now. I actually have trouble not getting massive clouds out of it... (it's a good problem to have 😤🥴)

I believe someone with a similar issue in the thread said putting more material in the bowl helped fix the issue. I'm liking airflow on the cap fully open, stem set to fully closed, or restricted bypass. This is using the direct airflow tube in the mouthpiece I think draw speed can play a...

I was playing around with my mini globe bong yesterday. I heated it with a triple flame torch, about half way past the second marker. I got a really good milky bong hit It needed another cycle, but a grabbed my wand, and reheated as I was drawing. I stopped heating before the second marker. I...

Sorry to hear about your tempest troubles ☹️ I just did a quick test with a cyclone triple flame. It took approx 32-34 seconds to get my indicator a touch past the second marker. This is normally the same marker I get to using the "time over" wand method I have mine set with cap airflow...

I've got the black /ebony model. Does anyone know if using the wand will make the black finish on the cap fade? I think I remember seeing one of the beta purple models fade slightly after using the wand a lot.

I started with the wand which does work very well. The last couple of days I have been using a cyclone style triple flame, and I think I prefer it! There is something nice about watching the VI move. I'm definitely still going to use the wand when I'm feeling lazy, or playing computer games 🤓

I started at 290c as per the mad heaters manual It definitely enough to get some nice clouds. It's a good setting for mouth to lung tokes I've been playing around with the 300-320c and it is good for a more punchy session. 320c is good for bong rips Airflow is still in testing! I like...

Do you have any tips for using a torch? I do generally prefer a torch, but I have been using the wand while playing around with the airflow settings II have used a triple flame torch a couple of times and it did work well

I've not come across that message. I've been going between 110w to 120w. 120w for 40 secs is perfect for using on a bong. My AVB does not go too dark, which is my preference I've only ever used the Flare upright so I'm not sure if that played a factor?

I tried the Flare last night. First session it only got to 60w, but the next 2 were 70w. 45 seconds got the VI to a little past the second notch and gave me a good MTL session. I think I can push the time a little bit more, but I'll tread carefully!

I did another round of testing last night. The Flare induction heater does work okay. 70w for 45 seconds gave good results. I also tried the tempest on a bong for the first time. I used a Dynavap bonger with the wand, 320c automode until it timed out. Oh my! Half bowl managed to milk up my...

I have the same combo. I did a little beeswax on the stem and it looks amazing I'm loving it so far.
