Finally got around to playing with the new unit. I have some initial impressions some people might be interested in (NOT a full review as I haven't had enough time yet). Initial Impressions First, I'll start with probably the least important part: The packaging. It *IS* the first thing one...

I think it's a bit disingenuous to dismiss the improvements as only a reskin. Sure the exteriors look pretty similar (new one is actually a tad bigger). But then there's a lot that's changed inside. I make it more akin to the iPhone cycle, where a new model/form-factor/whatever with new...

Biggest problem. I have nugs larger. ;) Don't think you can turn it off, as I don't think* it is even there. Problem solved. [PS: Although I don't think you can turn off BT in the IQ, there is no requirement to "use purely manual mode". All three modes are fully functional... the only...

Yeah, this isn't a replacement for the IQ (unless you want both a portable and an ULTRA_portable). It performs similarly, but in smaller form. It is intended as a more "personal unit" (if that can be a thing to be even more personal). [EDIT: Add to the fact they engineered this to accommodate...

If you are French, I didn't mean to insult you with Italian wine. :rofl: But those are some fine strains (I only just discovered DP a year or two ago, and am quite fond of it). Armagnac indeed! I'm program-stepping. My programs max out about 390°F (-ish), so I'll just go through one to the...

I'm lurking and catching up in here, but thought I'd toss :2c:... I liken it more to a fine cognac that I can sit, sip, and savor the flavor of the fine flower for long, contemplative, sessions... (Or, perhaps a fine Italian wine, in your case!)

Don't worry, buddy! I got your back: :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Is it just me, or do others look for "data leakage" (unintended information) in the "Reflectoporn" of the IQ bowl? [*NOT* looking for naked ppl, but rather faces, signs, printing, or other unintended imagery. BTW: Trivial to duplicate keys from a photo. Also, many of you include your fingers in...

Good recommendation on that tool. I'll check it out! Just don't put that battery in the "smell proof" pouch... no idea if that "metallic looking" coating is conductive (too lazy to go grab a voltmeter right now). Mesh pocket is much better. But challenge accepted on configuration of case! I...

Ask, and ye shall receive... It is a soft case that is big enough to fit the Ascent. There are two mesh pockets on either side with an elastic top. The IQ will fit on either side (one loosely, the other snuggly). I doubt you can fit both the Ascent and the IQ and be able to close the device...

Hey Grokit! Long time! I am not a tea fan, but I really do enjoy the Tulsi tea. I also very much enjoy vaping it. I can't really tell you if vaping is as effective as drinking (I suspect so), but it does taste damn nice! (PS, after the Ginger Incident, I've learned to keep a different Ascent...

Others have already made the comment about the batt being too low. I can only add the comment that I was using mine connected to the wall, with a low, but not majorly low battery. (PLUS: get spare batts and charger, and you won't have this issue in the future! :) ) It's not available on the...

<Nigel silently puts index finger on side of nose>

Are you using the app? Very cool to watch real time progress and get that feedback. In terms of "clouds": What do you mean? Do you mean "visible vapor on exhale" or do you mean *CLOUDS!* Reason why I ask, is that will tell me a lot about your inhalation. I tend to be a session vaporist. So I...

It's already been mentioned in this thread (and discussed in the Ascent thread originally several years back), but Magic Eraser(tm) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melamine_foam) would be fine. It can scrub up tough stains. Tear up a small bit and use a tool to scrub it. Just rinse afterward.

{Sorry if some of these replies are a tad stale, but personal policy of not replying to a thread until I am caught up, and I just caught up. Pardon my lack of timeliness...} When I say "session vaporist" I mean *SESSION*. With the Ascent I could sip the duration of an american television drama...

You might have missed this in the Ascent thread, but this was completely discussed back then. Many people use it and it work well. I'd have to presume it would work well with the IQ

The Pearl is a very welcome update, both for thermal management and for volume/product management. This will do a lot to mitigate drops by room temp air and should help to keep temps consistent. As some of us can contest (@OF... I'm looking at you...) getting a good thermal retention surface...

Well.... the pre-sale looks like it includes a store credit of 51$ for other accessories, so that kinda makes the price 223.99. [EDIT: I suspect] there are more accessories on the way (other than what are listed now), so it might be worth it to hold onto that credit for a bit....

Simple solution: Don't use it. And there are perfectly good reasons to go the route of connecting to an external device: 1) Metrics. Plenty of people like that option, and it is an OPTION. Just because you might not want that, doesn't mean you can tell other people they don't have a good...
