Anvil by Vestratto

[cx714]

Looking for some advice. I have an Anvil in my cart but might be one of the few who needs 24 hours to decide.

I had the launch edition in my cart last year but let it go because I'm on the lower-dosing end of the spectrum. Frankly, the Anvil seemed like too much vape for my needs. I usually only load one bowl for day and one for night, and will hit them several times over the course of each.

So my question: can you low-dose happily with the full bowl or is the half-bowl clearly superior? I've seen the posts that say it's possible, but I'd like to know how well. For ex, can you load less in the full chamber or hit a full load over multiple sessions without too much compromise in flavor or effects? I saw @Whiff recommended fully but loosely loading the full bowl instead of half-loading, but I'm not sure why.

I expected the Anvil to retail around $250, but that's only the full-bowl unit now and I don't want to bump $35 for a half-bowl if I can help it.

Also, Carbon or Alpha Red?

Thanks!

Can someone who has both the anvil case and maad heaters reload confirm what they prefer to use?

Is the little mini Blazer torch (PB207) good enough for this vape?

I saw Sneaky Pete using one, and I was surprised because my 207 was pretty weak. It could power a Dyna in still air, but it was useless otherwise. I got my Anvil, and my suspicions were confirmed. Pete's 207 had a stronger flame. Then I saw this 207 troubleshooting and repair guide on Reddit, and I figured out how to turn the flame up. http://www.prince-lighter.com/repair1/image/PB-207.pdf
Now it will heat an Anvil, though I still prefer my dependable old Roburn Microtorch https://volcanoarts.com/product/microtorch-roburn-mt-770/

Yeah I don't understand why MasterCard or Visa debit cards are working for some people, but not others. I only have 19 hours and change. PayPal is out. And having good credit is out (when it comes to having a real credit card lol). Any other ideas of other payment methods that might work? I feel like Kiefer Sutherland in an episode of 24...

NVM. Is VAT in Canada only 5% for real ?

 

[DocNicksche]

Anville, I'm coooming!


... Just ordered a purple haze unit, a half bowl and the tube

Spent way too much! But I'm sure it's worth every $ and it's money well spent, imo
Shipping to Austria was almost 30$ in addition!
Now the real nerve wrecking waiting comes!
Can't wait to hold this beast in my hands and get anvilled!!!

I’ve been using the half chamber exclusively. Lightly loaded. I can get two cooks if I only heat the top copper ring. Maybe a third if I’m gentle with heat and it’s good flower. I’ll run the full chamber this evening and report.

I low dose. The anvil hits so profoundly harder than I’m used to. My daily/weekly flower consumption has decreased.

I'll look into it, but as far as I know you need to be approved for Sezzle. Thanks for the recommendation though!

Lol liked John's reply to me yesterday. Was exactly what I was looking for and coincidentally I ended up getting an email just a day later. Speedy. Was expecting possibly a P80 drop situation so I was about to settle into a bunker for the wait lol, but woke up today with an email from Vestratto, excited.

Debating on getting an extra bowl or two. How is reloading the device using the same bowl vs a new bowl? Like, for those that vape 2-3 bowls back to back, do you reload the same bowl after a cooldown or do you switch in new prefilled bowls? Not sure how long it would take to cooldown and reload the same bowl and thought maybe some of you have some experience and advice with using bowls back to back.

Also, is the anvil utility case able to take the anvil while still hot or do you have to wait for it too cool down?

I'm Losing it! My User's was just dropped off at my doorstep and I'm still 2 hours before I get home! I'm usually not worried about my packages but Damn!

Email John...he will set your order aside and work with you to figure out a way to make payment...he offered to do this for me when I had the problem trying to purchase the Founders Edition...
Funny thing...I have ordered from a couple of places in Canada and had no issue using my Visa Debit card.

 

[BKR2311]

Before I pull the trigger just wanted to ask if anyone has used this with two people? My wife and I typically use our Taroma. We take about 2-3 hits a piece or so. We only go through one bowl, most of the time don't even finish the bowl. Will the full bowl on the Anvil be something that 2 people would like?

Thank you for being helpful! Sooo... This is officially my walk of shame... The site DID except my Visa debit, I was just putting in the wrong expiration date over and over.. Like a dummy. I was away from home (didn't have the card on me), trying to place my order by memory.. Totally user error on my behalf, my bad! To those with a visa/mastercard debit, it should work for you. Super excited now! I ordered it in that Donatello purple, with a cpl extra bowls, and cpl packs of screens. Cowabunga!!

 

[chillmike]

Got my order in... Yes! I'm so excited and can't wait to get it in my hands and put it to work... Comprehensive review will most definitely be incoming soon after I've had a little bit of time with it... Man, I'm so happy....

IIRC, there was no second step, just a "You are signed up" type prompt after the form was submitted.

That's what I thought too but today the Join The Waitlist button goes to a Mailchimp sign-up that has a second confirmation step

There should have been a confirmation email sent to confirm, it's a legal thing to confirm that you are ok with him sending you guys emails.
Many people havent been getting email due to this reason

Maybe I'll look into the case in the future, I did not do my research ahead of time and just thought it was a simple plastic doob tube lol. My error. Honestly though I probably won't need it. 99 percent of my use with the anvil will be at home and i have plenty of other magnets to use (my reload will probably be the go to for this)

You will be fine without the case if you have a magnetic stand already!!!

EDIT* Is the little mini Blazer torch (PB207) good enough for this vape? Or do I need something bigger
that’s my main torch I use for dyna and stickybricks

Yes the Pb207 will work fine, most of the testing was done with a little single flame honest troch i got with my sticky brick runt and that pb207 is a much better torch, also its the torch sneak Pete uses as well

So was the “ATTENTION WAITLIST” email on Saturday the 12th sent to the waitlist or the newsletter list? Now I’m wondering if I am even on the waitlist.

I just went to the form that the “DROP 2 WAITLIST” email of Jan 10 linked to via a button that said “Join the Waitlist.” I clicked it and it opened a form at a mailch.imp address. I entered my email and clicked the “join the non revolution revolution” button. The form reloaded and the button was replaced with the message “Success! You've been added to the audience.” There was no mention of a confirmation email, nor was one sent. @bossman, we were right.

John said he sent that to everyone, give John an email and im sure he can figure something out for you. He is aware of the issue and has said he is going to go through both lists and pivk the names who havent ordered one, send him an email tho and we will help you out

To celebrate my three week anniversary with my Anvil, I hit the large bowl three ways.
First, I put a light sprinkling of loose flower and heated it to a medium low. Very airy, felt hotter, direct to lung. Wow. That was a fast high hit.
Second, small nug. Grabbed my mason jar bong because the first hit still kinda hurt. Medium low heat. Very wispy, useless hit. Crushed the nug to see what happened. Roasted the outside of the turkey but the stuffing was still raw. Probably too much convection.
Third, crushed nug from round 2. Medium heat this time, through the bong again. Hit hard again like the first round.
Conclusion, smaller chamber gets me more conductive/hybrid heat when running nugs. Large chamber is phenomenal with ground flower if you like a lot of air flow. Now that I think of it, I only ever have my airflow to full. Summary, I don’t know nothing. Especially after hitting that three times. Maybe 0.02g total.
After a moment of thought, I’m definitely going back to the small chamber. The big one just leaves too much room for temptation.

Thanks! I appreciate the sacrifice... for science.

i guess it was changed for the drop list, i had to click a confirmation link for the original newsletter/update list

Vestratto case all the way. Revolve is nice with it. But tough to imagine Anvil without its case.

Have you tried the Revolve stem with the Anvil? how it performs? or did you mean the "Reload" container?
