You feel that DV extract better for the amount or you feel the same effects? Just out of curiosity for fun

Pretty much the same. Feels very similar I'd say..
I'm honestly impressed with the AVB that the ALP produces. It's been very even and very well extraxted every time..

Honestly at first I wasn't liking the device very much, it was just getting wispy clouds, the flavor went away pretty fast, a very peculiar toasted flavor came out very quickly and ABV wasn't too even. Until I've figured out the BIG mistake I was doing: I was pressing herb too much!
So the most important thing is: don't tamp herb in the chamber! just drop it, distribute a bit but leave it fluffy. Do not use the concentrate pad as chamber reducer. Turn it on at max temp (240ºC) and enjoy. You can either deep inhale for a single extraction hit or do some smaller but still pleasant hits. Works with any amount and integrated cooling system works like a charm even at max temp.
Now I just get pleasant and flavorful hits during all the session, and the toasted flavor is completely gone. Day and night difference.
As depicted (BCG medium plate grind), the ABV of these 2 sessions with different amounts is pretty even and very dark at max temp
I don't find the loading system too messy at home (although I haven't tried it outdoors yet – can't wait for the caps!), I fill it with a tiny scoop then I cover the oven with suggested S&B screen (I use the coarse one) and all keeps pretty clean of AVB particles.
The golden finish keeps oven very clean, is always shiny which is nice.
I'm not a big fan of the fabric and leather finishes, we will see how they stand the test of time, but it feels pretty comfortable in the hand, difficult to slip out.
About sesh and on-demand, as with the V3 pro, I don't like to keep pressing a button so many seconds and normally I finish any load in a single session, so I just use session mode all the time. Autonomy is not a problem because of removable cells, which are pretty comfortable to replace thanks to a ribbon, but you need some nails to open the lids, so don't bite all of them! BTW Molicel P26A works like a charm as stock cell does.
As a bonus, my wife has severe jaw problems and she found the thin mouthpiece to be the most comfortable of all.

For loading take a small plastic measuring spoon and drill a hole through it. Boom. You have a funnel.

Session mode goes up to 10 mins. Read the manual. Its like five pages with pics and little text.

I've had mine 3 months now, and using it almost every day I've had zero problems with it. I definitely don't clean it as often as I should, but it doesn't seem to affect it. Sometimes I still get sessions with weaker clouds than others where I gotta pull harder to get there. But I'm sure that's just me not paying attention to how much I mill up and add.
Maybe I'll go order a .00g scale and weight and keep track of amounts so I can find the sweet spot. I know there have been nights when the hits and clouds were like something from a dream. I want to be able to duplicate that every night.

While I wait for the ALP dosing caps to drop, and not being a huge fan of the mighty screen hack, I tried something else last night that worked great: just the top cap of an S&B capsule, placed over the bowl. It sort of fits down into the bowl and worked quite well

a bit of update on this:is the flexing/movement on the hinge/door, bottom and USB slot normal?
3rd cell in, after multiple burnoffs and a couple of (surprisingly hard hitting) bowls, i think the plastic aroma is barely noticeable (max temp).
and covering the bottom air intake and testing airflow restriction reveals the airpath is not that well isolated on my unit, certainly not sealed, is that normal?
edit: well i opened up the other one and the wobbly door hinge, flexing bottom, plastic stank and lack of airpath isolation are there also, i guess it's "normal"...
tbh, the only thing really bothering me is the plastic hint at max temp, hopefully it dissipates soon, that and the potential safety concern of not having well isolated airpath.
and found a tiny gold flake on the silicone near the disk in the other one, def needs a wipe out the box, since burnoff woudn't work for metal particles..
after fully cleaning and carefully inspecting both of them, i concluded only the 1st one i opened has some issues:
robot farting lingered for a long time, too much play in the hinge also makes the door a bit difficult to open/close sometimes, loose mouthpiece, slightly crooked USB, sightly crooked battery door, leaky airpath, light bleed and flexing on the bottom/back.
all those things combined made for a poor 1st impression.
however, assuming the hot plastic aroma on max temp completely goes away, none of those really affect performance so i think i'll find a way to live with it.
the 2nd one is exactly as others described. had i opened them in reverse order instead, i believe my 1st impression would have been very different. this one goes to a friend.
having said all that, i think heater performance, bowl design and integrated cooling are stellar. there's more to like than dislike by a huge margin, overall and with the coming capsules it's probably one of the best portables atm.
but there's fierce competition in this segment with more to come so i think it's a good idea to voice feedback, for future versions to be even better.

Lotus, it’s worth asking for replacement of the unit with the light leak, crooked door, etc. I’m glad you also got a good unit so you know how it’s supposed to be, and don’t think we’re all nuts for loving this thing 
lol I know, I read the manual too when I got it. But this has nothing to do with my problem. My session mode is set to 5 minutes, but after just 1 minute without movement the device turns off for "safety" reasons, thats what I'm trying to turn off

Ah fair. I don’t think that’s possible unfortunately.

i just had a vision of a future airvape legacy pro:
the vape path was moved in the (removable) door/cover and consequently the resulting unit was much more compact (narrow) with a fully removable vape path.
the top got hotter but some sort of vegan fabric saved it.

I know some of you have been saying the messiness isn't too big of an issue, and it isn't. Only issue is whenever you take it out and about and need to discreetly dump out the AVB and load it afterwards.
So, that's why I cannot wait for these capsules!! It will make it so much easier when I'm out and about doing my gig job in my car.
Take maybe 3-4 capsules with me and discreetly pop them in and out without even having to handle the flower. Right now as it is, I take ground up flower in a small black container to fill it as needed.

I'm getting very consistent results with this amount: 0.08g. As said, I just pour the herb in the chamber and I don't press it at all, then I put the S&B screen or cap lid and close. I start at 220ºC then I finish at 240º in a small but pleasant 2 min session. Just did the first sesh of the day and I'm very high, I think is quite efficient.

This I agree with 100%...because cleaning a thing that is a size of a dime compared to the rest of my life messiness it is certainly laughable....BUTTTTTTTTTT!!!! What you said about loading outside of the house. It is impossible to be discreet. I agree. Having the capsules would solve that issue. I am wondering why this style of vape like the Firefly always get like this. What happens under the roof there? A party? Like the weed starts flying everywhere because its happy and having a little party under the roof...? Then, you open it right away and everyone is still but, ALL OVER THE PLACE! Anyway, I love my vape. Cleaning its diaper is what I associate it with.

Tried this last night. Worked well. Will be using this method until the ALP dosing capsules are available.
Thanks for the tip !!

Also waiting patiently to pre-load and travel. I recently picked up a Roffu and decided to get the capsules with sleeve and I took 4-extras with me today, clean and easy in transit. I hope the estimates of arrival are accurate.

Sorry for being lazy but I tried searching the thread but couldn’t easily find it. What is this “screen hack” with the oval screen next to the chamber? That screen getting clogged after just a few bowls is indeed getting annoying.
Pop it out. Just lose it totally. Instead top your filled bowls with a round screen from a S&B Mighty.

Ahh I see. Easy enough, I've already taken out the microdosing disk and top my bowls with a screen anyway. Thanks!
Oh ok. The tweak posted here involved keeping the disc and extending it at least halfway out to sort of hold/press the round screen in place. I literally lost my oval screen and this is better. Great hits. Less mess. Clogs less frequently.

Thanks for the tips! I'll pop out that oval screen, screw the microdosing disk back in and give that a try tonight after work.

Remove the lil Oval screen and cover the bowl with a 15.mm screen.
