It's shame that that has been your experience @Edwardo, and you've made a really good point regarding the consequences of vapes breaking down. I'm fortunate in that I gave up tobacco around 10 years ago and smoked neat joints up until getting into vaping, so the baccy addiction doesn't come into...
Thanks for this @Roger D, I was worried that it was a problem with the core, as my GC is absolutely silent!
EDIT - Does your TC also turn itself off quicker than your GC?
I'm noticing that the sessions aren't as long on the TC compared to the GC, as in it's turning itself off sooner. I've also noticed an odd humming noise, not sure if it's coming from the core or the battery as I've not had time to try the GC to see if the noise disappears.
Some good posts, it's great to read other opinions from people who have tried both TC and GC units, again I think the way in which you use your MV will have a big influence on your preference between the two options, there are SO many variables from choice of whip, water or dry, and also type of...
Agreed with the others, you should know if your unit is faulty or not, if it's working correctly it'll run smoothly and produce decent flavour and clouds on all settings, if it's not doing this then there's something wrong, the only other thing that could have an influence is the quality of your...
Mighty, PP, Ascent and Solo, had a few others but sold them on.
As above, I'd go for the TC if I were you, the clouds really are fantastic from it, just not quite as big as the GC but still nice and thick, and tasty! No real need to buy both IMO.
To be fair, the clouds that the TC produces are absolutely awesome, it's just that the GC produces even better ones! :D
I'm a flavour chaser too, but decent clouds are also an important factor in a satisfying vape for me, so a good combo of the two is just the ticket, hence my love for the...
Having used the TC a fair bit now I'm fully in love with it!
I think whether you'll prefer the GC or the TC will come down to personal preference, and I also think how you use your MV will also influence that decision. I don't use a water-tool, and I think that makes a big difference to my...
Whilst I realise it's early days as I've only had the TCMV (Teflon Core MiniVap) for a few hours, wow, it's instantly different to the GCMV (Glass Core MiniVap), and there's no doubt about it - GCMV produces amazing clouds, but the TCMV tastes much better, that's pretty much the difference as...
Happy to say that my new TCMV turned up today from Hermes, so I now how a TCMV and GCMV both with the new firmware, I've got a busy afternoon with work ahead so won't be able to test the new TC for a while, but I'll report back with some comparisons after I've had long enough to give the TC a...
@mixchu69, I see in your sig that you have an Ascent, the mouthpiece for the ascents sit perfectly on the end of the flexicone+, that's the set up I use.
My Teflon has been sent this afternoon, so it should be with me in the next couple of days, I'll then be able to give a comparison as I'll have both Teflon and Glass cored units both with the newest firmware.
I've been unable to get any contact (answer to numerous emails) from Hermes now for well over a week, has anyone else been able to get in contact with them?
Yes the spent taste is with any heat setting, but I haven't tried it without the lid, I'll give it a go.
I should also mention that my unit definitely cooks the load between hits, I only ever use the basket rather than load straight into the chamber, but still it seems to cook the herb, I think...
I haven't wanted to join in with this as I'm reserving my judgement, but I have to agree with those who are reporting a 'spent' taste very early on.
I have a glass cored MV with the new firmware, delivered to me at the end of last year. It works very well in that the clouds it produces are...
I agree with this, but the problem is that the MV has been around for years! So when I ordered mine I was really looking forward to receiving a high quality vape that had been around and had received really good reviews from everyone, which is why it's a let down to receive something that...
Good on you @I.b.vaping, what a great attitude, you can only speak as you find and you've had a nightmare run of bad luck with the MV and I don't think anyone can blame you for bailing out, you're right about Hermes it's a transient time and they're working hard to improve the product but maybe...
Interesting, are they exactly the same size? and if so, the same size as which basket, large or small? And I assume they clip into the flexicone+? Thanks!
