Hello??

Separated from the group
I have an IQ and ordered the pods to use in it after @Davinci_vaporizer said they would work. They do fit very well in the original IQ though I have been unable to get decent vapor production. For a microdoser it might work but I feel it isn’t using my herbs effectively and efficiently. Possibly I need to adjust my technique. Let me know if you are able to get better results.

Hi all, I have some new info regarding the IQ2 upgrade program:
I chatted into support to inquire about my IQ RMA and talked with Patrick for a bit. He did confirm that they just began the upgrade program and he offered it to me. If you have an IQ you would get 30% of your original purchase price towards the IQ2 with a registered device or with proof of purchase, or if you are a pioneer or have guide status you will get 50% of the original purchase price towards the IQ2. He said calling or chatting in is the only way to take advantage at this point because they are processing them as RMA's.
For me, I chose not to do it (yet). It only gives me like $82 towards the $295 IQ2. I still want a clear picture (or clear confirmation from an IQ2 owner) what has happened to satans anus. Not to mention I have backup MP's, Flavor Chambers, and gaskets for my IQ that will not work with the IQ2. Another factor is that if I'm going to get the IQ2, I'm definitely gonna want the dosing pod kit (another $25) as well. Soooooo, I'm gonna get the old IQ back soon (should ship today or 2moro) and then I'll likely be posting it and all it's goodies in a classified ad. And maybe...just maybe...the stars will line up as we approach 4/20/2020 and a more tempting deal will be available.
Peese all!

Nice to have some clarification on this subject thx, Yeah 30% is mehhh, i dont know what pioneer or having guide status is... i think the OG IQ can be sold for more than 100€ especially if you have extras, i have the concentrate pod, the spacers, the sleeve and off course still under warranty so i think worth more than 30% and closer to 50% so i dont know what to think or what to do... maybe you're right holding on a bit more til 420 and maybe we could get a better deal in the upgrade program cause selling it is not going to be a good time to do...
I like the IQ and my only complaints are the airflow and the maintenance but i do have 3 portables and the IQ was loosing ground and on the way out... 50% would be fair imo
Cheers

I want new portable?
Collect because it’s what one does to reach coolness?
MIRQ or 2?
I use a SOLO because it wont die?
I want one to use outside in the yard?
I want something new for fun!

Haha, I suppose some do, I personally do to reach "highness" lol!
On a serious note, I don't own the Miqro or the IQ2. I do own the IQ original though, and it is a solid unit.

I hear ya brother! I have been lurking in the weeds on a couple threads myself lately. Within the last two weeks I have added two devices to my carts and then backed out last minute. I'm pretty content with my top 4 portables right now I suppose. But damn that VAS!!

Don’t get VAS ? (My wife doesn’t appreciate my many pieces)
Back in High School paper was in fashion?
GAS + VAS = $$$$$ however worth the feeling!
EDIT:
Our upgrade program is back under review, but we'll have something completely fleshed out within the next week.
We were ready to roll something out this week but the infrastructure wasn't practical for us (I:E; we didn't want to have people waiting forever to get their upgrade processed) - so we're looking at it and will have a solution soon. Thanks for being patient!

30% with that price point isnt tempting enough for me. Shame because I loved my IQ. But after 1 RMA and the new device having a lid that wont stay shut, just cant justify spending that much money to roll the dice again. Oh well. The hunt for the new vape goes on...anyone have any suggestions on a good stealthy portable, Im all ears!

I replaced my IQ with the TinyMight, i agree with you 30% with that price isn't tempting enough.... the price to start should be -30% to be affordable and in line with others but i won't discuss prices... only what i will pay
. So after this disappointing sale i think i can get something around 125€ for my IQ that cost me with postage 280€ 
(i won't make that mistake again...) on 7/2017, still under warranty and with the proof of purchase and some extras...anyone interested in Europe PM pref.Still like it but went easily to the bottom of my arsenal and is the most expensive portable i got, to be laying around with no use best to go and use the money to get something on 420.

I bought an IQ 2 for $180 and I can say that for that price it was totally worth it.
The upgrade is for the air dial. My first Dynavap was a glass wpa with no carb. My upgrade was a simrell vortex.
The IQ and the IQ 2 use the same analogy, and also the same cooling effect (and it glows while you hit it, and shows you a draw bar that gets more filled the longer you draw.
They improved the hand issue. As a sensitive hand person, I can say that this won't hurt your hands.

Re: the upgrade program, we are currently reevaluating. We hope to have something final, with a functional landing page on our website by the end of the month. More details to follow. Thank you for your patience.

Hello All,
We are spending some time this week to meet and discuss how best to rollout our upgrade program.
We would love everyone who wants to upgrade to an IQ2 to be able to do so; so the ask is - what does your ideal upgrade plan look like? I would love to bring your feedback to the meeting so that your voices are considered as we create this program.
Thank you for any and all feedback, and enjoy your weekend.

not even sure I want one. I was grateful that davinci let me return my dysfunctional unit and replaced it. But the unit that was sent to me is even worse. lid pops open during use. It never turns on when I click 5 times, takes several attempts. Now 75% of the time just randomly turns off during use (with full charge). uuugh...

Hi Rob. I sent in my RMA for an IQ and received by DaVinci on the 9th. No updates and I’ve sent you a PM. Any updates you can provide would be helpful. And yes, very interested in the upgrade program...especially since it’s already there. Thanks again.
Are we talking about the IQ2? Or the original IQ?
Hello sometooL,
Just got back to you via PM. And I should correct you here, there is no comprehensive upgrade program in place. There IS a sort of "secret menu" upgrade (which we posted about previously here and on Reddit) that we are allowing customers to do when they contact customer service, but it's our intention to roll out a seamless, mostly autonomous service that allows for our customers to complete the entire process via our website. That's more what we are looking for feedback on.
Thanks!

You replaced my original IQ with an original IQ that is really defective. Its really bad. Id be somewhat interested in an IQ 2 if it worked but after this nightmare with the original IQ, Im not down for paying a lot of money for it. Id just be apt to try something else.
