The key to big clouds with a VC is to heat it past the click. You have to sort of get in tune with it so you know how far past you can go before combustion. Just my

If God is the answer, then the question is wrong
Soft metals like aluminium maybe, stainless steel or titanium aren’t affected.
Strong acids on the other hand would do

I was going to mention that as well until you beat me to it. In regards to Big clouds, when you watch those reviewer videos lighting is set up in a special way to accentuate and highlight those clouds so they're easier to see and naturally they look bigger than what they would to your eyes in a room.
Happy Vaping!

@Socks And Sandals you're a great example of how different we all, and our preferences, are. Your 2 disliked vapes, dynavap and e-nano, are my two favorite: e-nano for amazing flavor, and dynavap for microdosing. My Lotus also has amazing flavor, but I have never gotten the hang of it to get consistent results. Glad there was another fan to take the Omni off your hands for a good price.
There have been a few occasions when someone has to come to me for a stem before they've tried a VC.
My advice is always to buy one and then come back.
It's not the vape for everyone.
As for setting the scene with videos, yep guilty as charged.
As for being able to get the same clouds consistently no matter the lighting, again guilty as charged.
The triple video was the first time I filled a VC with weed in a long time.
Concentrate on rayon, dip and sip.

My only vapes so far that I own are several Dynavaps and my first one was a 2017 M and from the beginning I liked it a lot alone from the efficience wise saved me alot of herbs in comparisson, must say I come from smoking Joints mixed with tobacoo, so the high felt much more cleaner without the tobacco and the heating process with a single flame torch from the beginning was never a problem for me.
For 60€ it was one of my best investments, since the arrival day of my 2017 M I have never burned anything. Next step up after 2 months was a Omnivap XL and this is since them my daily driver or main vapcap. I was sold on the greater airflow in comparisson to the 2017 M and the function with the Omni Condenser.
The best for me on the Dynavap are the durability and that nothing can really break, the really slim form factor and its easy to clean.
After nine months with flame operation I decide to get an Induction Heater from @Pipes, it was a Skeletor that is powered with 3 18650 batteries but is now not more offered, this was also a whole new expirience I loved it so much that I ordered short after that an Portside Mini for on the go vaping. The best on it was the one handed and fast heating so comfortable.
For me the vapcap is the perfect tool to get what I want but not for everyone, I have giftet 3 vapcaps away but they have not get the hang out of it and nevertheless combusting.
I test a flavour cap since 3 weeks and must say its my new standart cap I love it it gives me a longer session from the bowl and the flavour with it is outstanding, good that I have ordered 2 of them.

Land of the long vapor cloud
Very disgruntled Omivap XL Owner:
I still can't get this fucking thing to work on any constant basis... It's been 2 months using this thing once a night... and I still can't produce a cloud worthy hit.. What's the fucking point in using this thing through water when I can't produce enough "dry vapor" even worthy of it?
Again, thanks to the community for trying to help.. But as of yesterday, I have sold my Omnivap Xl on ebay.. for.... $150... not a bad trade off for the huge $250 disappointment this "Dynavap Disappointment" has been for me..
Just as I was disappointed in the E - Nano... I'll be avoiding "Butane Vapes" in the future just as I avoid "Log Vapes" altogether... from this moment forward.
Either I got a defective cap, Or i'm the biggest dumb ass in the world.. but after two months, it's safe to say.. I give up!I'd go with with the the former rather than the latter on this....
I'd rather have my 2 solar panels and 4 power banks that run off of 18650's and a Solo 2 or Mighty than any BUTANE or LOG VAPE any day of the week and twice on sunday in the instance we were evacuated by another California fire or Edison pulls the power plug on us... That's just the way it is... To each their fucking own.. I'm done with Dynavap!
Sorry but as far as word of mouth goes.. this vape lands in the "over rated" hype train for me.
My next vape will definitely be the New Vape Flower Pot V ROD. followed by the Volcano Hybrid.. I've tried the flowerpot V ROD and Volcano Hybrid already... and am blown away.. This is where my $$$ should have went in the first place... Both of these vapes KNOCK ME ON MY ASS in a way that no other has since my Storz and Bickel Plenty!!!!
Do I get high from my Omni XL? Fuck yes!
Can I produce clouds from it? FUCK NO!!!
Have I tried it through water using the Fat Mouthpiece? Yes and it sucked!
Does that first hit from a fresh bowl produce some of the best flavor you ever had? FUCK YES!
It's not to say it's a bad vape.. it does produce results.. I'll admit that!I'm just disappointed with my "visual vapor producing experience" when compared to the likes of this:
My experience hasn't even CAME CLOSE TO THIS if people wonder why I'm so angry
There are pros and cons to this vape from my experience....
I also want to comment on these "Precious Metals"... but I won't...
I'm just done with this company...
Thanks to those that tried to help.. sincerely... I just don't like this product... I have NEVER gotten it to perform in a consistent fashion since the first day I used it. Maybe I didn't put in the effort? I dunno? Who really gives a shit when I have a perfectly functional plug in vape that works every time CONSISTENTLY unlike my OMNIVAP XL has...
I haven't been this FRUSTRATED with anything before in my life since my first girlfriend... yes really!
That is all...
Sorry George! I just "don't get it!"....
I'm glad you shared your dynavap experience. It was thought provoking and I personally didn't feel it was all that negative, just you expressing genuine frustration.
Also thanks to everyone who replied to @Socks And Sandals with maturity and kindness, it's one of the things I like the most about this forum.
I do think the surroundings one vapes in has an influence on how much vapor is visible on exhalation. I don't get consistent vapor but I do get consistent effects.

As I recall SS Vapcaps use 304. This doesn't mean that I think it is a good idea to used caustic solutions to clean vapcaps.

Winter time here, 4 seconds past the click on my IH to get decent hits. That's indoors. With the more piercing heat of my 3 flame triangle torch it's 4 seconds outside in 35F ambient temps.The key to big clouds with a VC is to heat it past the click.

Less soul, more mind
Those who (like myself) do not own an ultrasonic bath may try to clean the tip with the help of an electric toothbrush and some toothpaste (not quite sure if the brand or type matters). 5 minutes of electrobrushing makes it shiny like new. Prepare to be amazed.
@Cloudsizes etc.: It's totally dictated by the strain. Some strains will give off dense vapor even with the 4th heatcycle, some will get whimsy by the 3rd.

Depends on how much bud you're vaping. On my electric vape with a 0.2 chamber, absolutely. But I use my VC as a quick on-the-go one-hitter.It isn’t always necessary to be a fog machine. Sometimes you should sip back
And enjoy the experience

Yeah, I personally don't give 2 shits about BIG clouds.
As long as I get the effects I'm supposed to get from my herb/vaporizer, I'm golden!
Imho, clouds are more to impress ppl and look cool. It doesn't necessarily TAKE big clouds to get high. I don't partake, to look cool or impress anyone. I partake to enjoy a nice comfortable buzz.
Merry Christmas and
Happy Vaping!

Sometimes I want it fast, sometimes I want it slow, sometimes I want some of both. That is just one of the beauties of the vapcap, I am in complete control. Others are wanting 381.765 deg. +- .050, meh I don't.
When I started with the VC I respected the click, now it's more of a rough benchmark, sometimes heat to the click or beyond, sometimes not even to the click. I know how it works and the differences in my caps. I have a running count that is natural and instinctive now to track where I'm at.
The heat source and how one uses it also makes a big difference that can be exploited to get the desired results. I think this just develops naturally with use.

Do I get high from my Omni XL? Fuck yes!
Can I produce clouds from it? FUCK NO!!!
This here tells me a lot.
Clouds mean nothing to me.
Ever vape in the dark or in the cold?
@lookhigh I totally agree that cloud production isn't the be all and end all.
Personally I like the feel of thicker vapor.
I can see how for someone moving into vaping from smoking they would need to see some visible vapor and the thicker the better. Even if it's just as a placebo.
As for videos if every piece of footage showed light wispy vapor fewer people would be purchasing.
Each to their own at the end of the day. With a bit of research and practice we can all achieve the results we individually desire.
@stark1 was only looking at those pieces of glass the other day, what volume is that one it looks a nice physical size?

This thread moves a little too fast for me to be active here but I'm a huge fan of the Dynavap as well and recently picked up the Turbo Twist stem. This has been an absolute joy to use. Very cool vapor with the two air intakes. The much larger air path (compared to any condenser I've ever used) makes pulling on this effortless. Produces very flavorful hits. You can also cover the intakes to get large hits as well (intakes placed so that this isn't cumbersome to do). Flavor is compromised somewhat using this method but not to the degree where I can't recommend it. The bell bottom, twist and donut formations are really effective in cooling the vapor. The tip also fits perfectly in the joint and the glass used for the joint is nice and thick. Overall construction seems really solid for the price. The fuming on my piece is really pretty as well. The ergonomics of this stem is really nice too. The twists make for really good natural resting spot for your fingers when holding. When using an IH, you use the extra surface area of the bell bottom to press down. It's not too large but my no means too small and has a nice weight to it. The only cons IMO are that its a little awkward to spin so it really best to be used with an IH and its made of glass (big pros as well) so its obviously more fragile than your average stem.
Using with current generation TI tip (tried others and I settled on this) with low-temp cap with an IH.
IMO, it is the best at home option for a stem. I liked it so much, I grabbed two spares since they are on sale and I am horrible with glass.

Your lungs get thrashed if youre seeing clouds? That sucks man.
Talking about how clouds are just to impress and look cool is in itself an attempt to impress and look cool
I've never understood the "it all has to be this way or else you're doing it wrong".
Clouds are a marker of extraction. VC's are one of the best devices in existence for that. It's all about the tool for the job. If I just want to flavor sip the whole time I'll get a Linx Eden. If I need to quickly dust 0.02 in 1 or 2 hits I'll go Dynavap and there will be fog and dark brown AVB as it should be.
