I am pretty impressed with the Anvil thus far. 15-25 second heat up time with single flame small torch lighter at base. 7-8 huge hits natively per heat cycle. I mean MASSIVE free flowing RIPS. I’ve yet to be able to clear a single bong extraction hit, I imagine it could be broken up into two or 3 bong hits per cycle. A couple native hits then a bong hit at the end are more than possible on the same heat cycle. The Dynavap M will always have a market. But i don’t see any reason to ever buy an Omni or a VonG again, and I own both. The chambers can “Debowl” by magnet and lightly unthreading them chamber. You can fill like a Dynavap or the real method, IMO, and my favorite way is to not wait for the cool down click which comes about 40-45 seconds after the heated click…I don’t like to wait. I magnetize my Anvil, gently unscrew the single thread that holds the chamber and grab it with small tongs from the Elev8R, any tweezers will do, then fill from my grinder. But I like to pack it tight like my Dynavaps. This isn’t necessary at all. While the ‘copper battery’ remains warm, the chamber that comes off/out of it cools down like a Dynavap only taking a bit longer as the more mass retains the heat. I’ve used it natively heating near the tip and gotten as I said, 7-8 big hits natively on one heat cycle that were free flowing, non-restricted and very smooth, like the Tafee Bowle, effortless and mind boggling clouds when used natively. This thing retains heat in the copper core to a degree that’s unfathomable, yet not like you’re going to burn yourself as the loading and unloading don’t seem to put me at risk of being burned. Though it’s a hot device and we’ve all burned ourselves so it’s MORE than possible. I just move somewhat slow to be careful. It cools on a magnet just like we’re all used to. Out of a bong, it hits much harder than my TinyMight, Mighty+, Elev8R, Flip Brick, vapbong, VapMan, or any flame powered anything else I have. Natively it hits harder than anything flame powered by a stretch. I still say when used natively the TinyMight is stronger in on demand mode. The native hits are honestly right about on par with the Mighty+ and even the Tafee Bowle which shocks the hell out of me being that I never like using any of my 8 or so Dynavap devices because the first two heat cycles with a Dynavap were just vaporless terpene flavor rips. With the Anvil you get HUGE native hits and the flower tastes SO much better than a Dynavap, the two cannot be compared. The Dynavap tastes like combustion much more. Which is odd because I am “riding the line” when using the Anvil between combustion and vaporization. The ABV is dark AF If heated at the base, lighter if towards the tip. ………feel free to ask for questions or pics or what not I’ll be happy to provide whatever you guys want, if anything. I know people on here are more than versed on everything already. Just offering.
Is it just me, or does that
www.vestratto.com on the case give off a 1990's dotcom promotional merchandise vibe? I kinda feel like "Vestratto" should be enough... it's a pretty unique word.
You guys are lucky, mine shipped on 12/28 but expected delivery is 1/7. Can't wait!
My expected delivery was 1/6 and I got it 12/31.
@Vestratto it seems people are not having the best possible experience with the magnets. I'd recommend exploring Polymagnet "Attach" centering magnets from Correlated Magnetics. They are patented magnets that work much better than standard axially/diametrically magnetized magnets. The size needed for the Anvil would only cost a couple of dollars, so your cost increase would be very minimal. You can even get magnets made to your specs and coated in teflon if desired. I bought some of these magnets a few years ago, and they do live up to the manufacturers claims. They are well worth the price premium, IMO.

I have a ton of rare earth magnets and debowling and reloading while hot has been incredibly easy.
