I see a lot of people comparing a torch lighter to an IH, but has anyone compared to a torch lighter to the Ispire wand? I was looking for an IH for my dynavap and decided on the wand instead as it was only a £15 more expensive then a typical dyna compatible IH, it had great reviews for dyna heating purposes, and obviously it doubles as a dabbing tool too. It also seems like the best of both worlds - the control/accuracy of lighter heating but with no butane/refilling.
Anyone else tried this? I've got the wand, I just need to pick up some batteries today.
i have been considering getting an IH for well over a year now. getting closer. and i think i have circled in on the wand, just having some difficulties finding a place to buy it in continental europe atm.
while i am looking, are there people who own a "regular" DV induction heater & the wand but prefer the dedicated IH for their dynavaps? it seems easy finding people preferring the wand, so id be curious to hear the other side - still making up my mind i suppose.
i have never used an IH, a criticism i hear from time to time is the relative rigidity in heating when compared to a torch. IHs like the magheater with the adjustable oven seem to offer a little more flexibility, but i find it impossible to judge how practical this is in realworld use. also seems to require some stamina getting one.
i am aware of the much anticipated mad sense - could be soon now? might make sense .. to wait, but while it looks really snazzy & seems to offer a lot of great features - it seems it would have to be as rigid in the way it heats as any other IH? i think?
i have no use for a dabbing tool, and i would prefer a single hand operation (but yes this seems an unavoidable tradeoff for torch-like flexibility), so i am all ears for arguements in favor of other heaters than the wands while i am still out shopping. or if just to point out that never having tried an IH, the comparative lack of flexibility may really not be a problem at all. i also considered the sideclick for a while. maybe thats all i need. good pricepoint.
