Had my first evening with the Solo.
Out of the box it did have a very distinctive plastic smell. I fully charged and then cycled the machine 3 times on setting 7 till it auto switched off. By the end of the third run the smell was much reduced.
Recharged the battery full again and loaded a stem. Starting on setting 3 I got very tasty vapor with decent visible vapor production. Took it up to 4 and 5 to finish. I'm quite glad that I've had a log vape before and am used to the restricted draw. I could imagine if you were coming from something like an EQ that it could be disheartening.
So far it's very straight forward, is giving nice vapor production and is getting my abv to how I like with setting 5.
I am definitely going to be putting in screens to stop the herb being sucked up and also try with a second screen to stop herb falling into the bowl.
Lots more testing to do, but so far so good
