Not sure if my unit is messed up or the atomizer but it is blinking 8 times and shutting off which means it is over heating... i only have had it for 5 days so far, i got a extra atomizer ill try in a bit

Well after unscrewing the atomizer and screwing it back it i turned it on again but not much vapor at lvl 3 put it up to lvl 4 and got more but not what it should be for almost 800 degrees or whatever it is. I will try my new atomizer i have in a bit and report back hopefully it was just the atomizer but still it only lasted me 4-5 days i hope my other one can last longer than that.....

Only real complaint at this point is the lack of a tether.

Meaning a carb tether? If so, I want one, too.

@FocusV, can you.make this happen? Not like you don't have enough to do. :p

Happy Easter & Passover to those that celebrate. :)

I have an android phone running android 8 i have the app on my phone and i can open the app but it doesnt find the carta. If i search my bluetooth it shows up i my bluetooth settings but the app cant find it and when i try to connect on my bluetooth menu it doesnt work. Is this the same issue everyone else is having when they get the app?

Yeh cevans811 that is the same thing that is going on with mine. After messing with my atomizer a bit it is working good again on temp 3 (i think the bucket was slightly off the heating element)and it hasn't given me the 8 blinks that was overheating again. So my fingers are crossed it stays working great haha

I am trying to install the app onto an iPhone from an macbook pro, following the steps on the reddit guide I'm running into some problems. How do I tie the password I create in my Apple ID to the Carta app? I don't know if impactor is running properly, I installed it on my desktop and I tried again using a folder location and when I drop the Carta app file onto the interface of the app, it tells me that it needs a destination. If anyone has any tips or advice, I'd greatly appreciate them.

Thanks

The target is your device. It should be plugged into your MAC. You plug in your phone, launch extractor, it should see your phone - drag and drop the Carta app on top of Extractor and it will ask for your email, and then the app password you generated in your itunes account.

thanks, these steps worked perfectly, I was able to install the app onto my phone.

Between the lawsuit and this, Puffco should be worried. On top of an overpriced base, it took expensive 3rd party glass and cups for my Peak to even feel like a good device. Yet right out of the box, the Carta is already better than my modded Peak. And I haven't even installed the app yet. As long as it holds up to long term use (and with the warranty, I'm not too worried) this thing is going to be a home run.

Tried a .12g dab just to start testing how much the atomizer can take, and the answer is apparently....not .12g, lol. I got 3 full cycles at level 2 of nice tasty vapor without much loss in flavor by the 3rd one. At first glance cleanup didn't seem too bad. There was still a lot left in the cup to wipe, but only a little oil in the well of the cap. But I pulled the cup out and found a lot of material on the heating element, which was pristine before this dab:

So just be careful with larger quantities. I also hot loaded that one, so maybe a cold load would have had a cleaner result.

My atty was like that too and the bucket stuck to it and ripped out the wires ..I emailed them and its the weekend so I should hear back this week to get a new one..

I really appreciate them being engaged with their customers, but I hate having to sign up for other services to not fall behind on products or info.

@Summer indeeed it does! I am hoping to get to it this week. i am also working on a functional timeline for the site that will keep you guys up to date on the details.

For those wondering about the subscription. its certainly not the case or our intention for your atomizer to go out monthly but for those who would prefer a fresh clean atomizer and to go with out the hassle of cleaning etc.. then the sub plan is there to help! not to mention subscription accounts receive discounted pricing across the board on products.

FYI for all the beta customers who might want to pull the trigger on the subscription. I am going to be generating a separate account profile for you guys so beta users will have a permanent 30% off the entire site for the foreseeable future haha.


Will have more details up on the Atomizers as well as an updated User Manual linked to the website soon!


Atomizers are back in stock. and Cartas will be back available on the site tonight.

Post 4/20 sale will be commencing soon.

So just received my replacement unit and my atomizer doesn’t have the little side guards next to the ceramic disc to hold the dish....is this an old style atomizer?

has anyone run into the issue of the carta turning on like it should and then doing nothing more. the white lights blink as they should then nothing no response or light from the one touch to start the heating process. sometimes if i screw the atomizer in a little less or more i'll get the 5 lights that blink red 5 times saying there is a short.


I have also had scenarios where i turn it on and one white light comes on followed by a yellow just at the first led light, then nothing. 5 more clicks and it does it again. like it turns off right after i turn it on. i defintely get the growing pains of these things but damn i wish i could remedy it by getting things local.

The top black ring is tighty lefty, it threads backwards. Turn it clockwise, you'll have access to the bucket.

Definitely do NOT over-tighten the atomizer cap - especially with the quartz installed - like I just did. Bucket completely shattered :uhoh:

What happened to the great customer service..It went from great service to now no one returns my email. The bucket overflows putting the smallest amount in. Then the bucket got stuck to the ceramic and pulled all the wires out so now the Carta is useless.. The first unit was broken and you sent me a new one,thats was great..Now wish I could get a replacement atomizer..At least email me back and say NO that I have to spend another $30..

@Hussan311, contact @FocusV for support so they can talk you through it. May be simple or may be a defective unit. So go straight to the horse's mouth, so-to-speak. ;)

@FocusV, the 2 glass pieces I'm attracted to are the Helix & that recycler with the spout/stem mp (pic below). I wish you would get around to demo'ing it. And not fond of the pink Helix shown in your story. Would like a greyish baby blue - if you're asking. :D

The app is on my phone and connects to my Carta, but it seems like it's stuck in herb mode, the temp is maxed at 500. The settings seems to mirror the flower settings, I can't get the app to switch to concentrate mode. Do you know how to get the temp to go higher than 500. Thanks in advance
