Yeh I left the DV on charge, and burned it in then had a bowl with it still on charge, but still I guess i should have waited. It only took an hour before the 4 solid bars appeared. I'v had three 10 minute sessions unplugged, and the battery is still showing 3 bars, sometimes 2 when heating up or regulating, but it goes back up.
I tried a can with a small bit of cotton on the bottom and a screen sitting on top ( I put the cotton in for oils, which im going to try later on). It did vap...a little, the taste was there aswell, but it just wasnt as satisfying as just dumping it in the chamber, so thats exactly what i did.
The good thing about the DV is that theres a very small learning curve. The hit is strong from the start, the first time I took to long a draw and nearly coughed my lungs up. Im fairly new to vaporizers, I own an alivi8, which i cant get a decent pull with and has a very steep learning curve which I dont have the funds to waste herb on (dont get me started on sucking in all that butane and the occasional combustion), and have tried a friend desktop vap, that you can only get 1 or 2 pulls from before its out and you need to load it again, also it combust sometimes, my friend likes it when it does, i almost boke. Iv also tried volcanos, which are good but seem over priced and not stealthy enough for my liking. So back to the DV, I like how you can get different flavors/cloud production at different temps, also I saw some of the early videos of people having long vap sessions, but i didnt expect to be able to go the full 10 minutes with vap still coming. Since iv been dumping the abv and not firing her up a second time, I recon Im going to have some nice abv to munch on later on when i have enough. I did notice the abv was a lighter than most times, because i stopped vaping at 170 or 180 i cant remember, the previous times i finished at 190/200.
I cant wait to show my friend and show him a vaporizer that performs well and how it should.
Also after noticing a lot of people having problems with "off gassing" and a rubbery smell, I checked my unit, and there was no noticeable smell, except for a kind of oven heat smell when its on, nothing that even bothers me or is noticeable without me putting my nose the the heating element.
All in all im happy with my DV so far lets hope it doesnt crash out on me, but i guess the reason for so many people having problems on this forum is because more people reach out for help when needed, rather than give a review when all is working fine.
Also 0F Iv been getting used to the pull strength and your right less is more, thanks.
Should I let my DV drain battery fully or should I recharge when its down to 1 or 2 bars?
