Helix Helios just arrived. A picture doesn't do it justice(do any pictures of glass?). Very handheld and is the perfect height for my desk. Cloud sits very nicely atop it too :nod:. I'll try and get a good vid of this up on here.
I assume yours is still under warranty? If so, the upgrade will get you the new cloud plus and an extension to your existing warranty(from 1 year to 3, I think). If, after receiving your upgraded unit, it were to break, I think you'd just go through the standard warranty procedure.
The cloud will now heat in 10 minutes or less. The light will go green very quickly. I will turn mine to max temp for ~6min and then turn back to desired temp for ~5min(to allow proper cooling).
As ShipDit said before me it is a matter of stealth for some. For others, they don't want to be losing any actives due to "off-gassing" from the conduction. Convection tends to be less harsh and better tasting as well. It's all personal preference and what suits you in the end.
I second the edibles. Save up what you vape. I make ABV capsules and they give a nice sedative effect. If you have any questions about them, ask away. :D
Parting with it so soon? :rolleyes: :p
I would make that trade too if the opportunity came about.
I do agree with BDV although I'm sure the agreement can't be altered now.
I have some battery issues as well. Sometimes during use my battery will randomly flash from green to red. Make sure the battery is properly seated on the charging dock and charge it for 30 minutes. That may help.
From my finding during use it's great for vaping. As long as you can one hand the vape easily anyway. The funneling action does work and cools the vapor thoroughly. It's almost as if it's water diffused without being so(smooth from greater aeration). I like to attach the helix to my GnOme and...
Half of that is for combustion but I've found other uses for them. It's called the "Helix 3 in 1 bubbler" found here:

Been really enjoying this bubbler I bought.
I wouldn't call this a "high quality" piece but rather... "mid-tier". The one thing I love about this, is the glass is shaped so you can grasp it firmly.
Was about 150USD express shipped from Canada to US.
