I’ve got a 19m never use it now but I could never part with it, will always be part of the family, it’s what got me into Dynavaps so I must of liked it
Same here. I skipped the '20s but tried the '21 cuz it came in a kit and had the half bowl and 10mm taper and I hoped it corrected the flaws of the '20. I think it did pretty well on all counts. I love my VerdiuM and use it all the time. Still like the 19's though, just less convenient in certain ways.I’ve got a 19m never use it now but I could never part with it, will always be part of the family, it’s what got me into Dynavaps so I must of liked it
In what way do you consider it a one trick pony? It can absolutely roast material fast but I find it also does flavour and session style hits just as well as any other SS tip.I agree with this. The 19 is loved because it rips hard. This can certainly be a desirable attribute, however, the 19M is a bit of a one trick pony. I keep one around and occasionally use it, but it is typically not my go-to
I pulled the '21M out the other day to use for a while. I've been going all VonG and Xmax v3 lately and the '21M is just completely out-classed in every way by the '19 M. The stem of the 21 is the only usable part, but the tip is just garbage IMO. Right now I only have an Apollo II and it just can't give the 21 the heat it needs to function properly and in my experience, it's not much better with a torch.
They should have stopped at the '19 M.
For me it's easier to get big rips with the 19M than with the 21M. It's easier to get tastier hits with the 21M than the 19M.
using same technique
seems a little silly to have to heat so far past the click, I was going 1-2 second for my 19 that's combustion line heating low. and even for my titanium that is a pretty intense hit, same heating. one hitters aren't my norm anymore but sometimes its nice to be nostalgic so I like having that horsepower. these days I like a few hits and I've never had trouble getting my 19 to hit as soft os I wantrequires technique adaptions to work around.

This is almost always the answer.try backing the flame right off and really extending that heatup.
I agree with both of your posts. My 'one trick pony' comment applies more to those who have yet to (or do not care to) understand the subtle nuances of each tip, cap, or stem combo and the nuances of heating methods. Generally speaking for most casual users I still think that the 2019M 'trick' is its heavy-hitter persona. It rips.There’s your issue man. 21m is a lil heavier and the cap clicks a little earlier, requires technique adaptions to work around. 2020m even more so, that is one big bertha at something like 6.3 grams
I usually stay just beyond or just touching the outer flame. Caught myself pushing it a couple weeks ago heating about an inner flame length outside the the outer flame (inner flame about .5", so about 1.5" away from the torch). Things got a little roasty but the hits were epic.I already roll that way @coolbreeze and I only heat with the wispy flame coming off the intense bright flame, never the intense flame directly
I used a 2019 for almost 2 years straight so the 21 has taken me a while to get used to, but even using it by itself for a few months there's zero redeeming qualities about it except the stem design to me unfortunately. That's just my opinion, I also am not a person who tastes much flavor out of weed (or anything, really) so I don't get the small, subtle nuances that a lot of people talk about.I hope the 21m isn't to bad??? maybe its no 19 but is it at least pretty good? have you tried it with a different cap? I just bought one for a new forum member, hoping it does a better job for him than his air which isn't getting the job done.
little afternoon delight, cheers DynaVap thread
Thank you for the advice and I've tried a couple different caps...the old standard cap from my 2019 and a captive cap that I use on my VonG that works well and no matter what I just don't get good hits from the 21. Not just massive rips either, normal hits are weak and wispy on the 21 or they're so hot it almost tastes charred. There is no in-between on mine and it's the only Dynavap of 4 I own that perform so poorly.It’s the cap. All the tips are is just a hunk of stainless steel with different machining each year - and will extract similarly provided technique is modified to account for the +/- of mass from tip to tip and the choice of cap
Those captives seem to want a different heatup style compared to a regular cap, try backing the flame right off and really extending that heatup. The Ti tips seem to get on with captive caps a bit more than the SS tips do, possibly related to the lower temp click
As for the Apollo, a lot of guys have success heating for only a few seconds at a time - the pulsing method I believe it is called. The thing gets way too hot too fast otherwise
Hey, the reason he's worried is because he bought a '21 DV for me to try. My Air 2 isnt powerful enough for me and he had a similar experience with dry herb vaping as well, so he offered to grab me one to see if that works. He has a '19 DV and has been telling me how hard hitting it is so he was a little worried after trying it last night and found that it indeed doesnt hit as hard as his '19, but because I'm a noob, i figured i wont even notice as i never tried the '19 to begin with. Tbh, if i can get the high i need, idc about the rest atm. And as for buying other stuff, that will inevitably come soon enough im sure lmao thanks for giving us more info and another side to look atI used a 2019 for almost 2 years straight so the 21 has taken me a while to get used to, but even using it by itself for a few months there's zero redeeming qualities about it except the stem design to me unfortunately.

I would bet that you will have a perfectly fine experience with the 21 and if not, there's other stuff to try.

I used to do the pulsing method but really didn't notice much difference doing that, at least not enough to warrant doing it each time. Again I posted above that I don't get subtle flavors and all the "taste" people speak of with any device, even with food I don't pick out flavors like most people do and never have.
With the 21, if I use it I will do a full heat cycle in the Apollo II without pulling on it to get some initial heat but it doesn't seem like that does much to help. My whole experience with the 21 aside from the stem has just been really really bad.
I want to like it but I don't think I'll ever get there with the 21. I pulled it back out last week to try again after a few months of not using it and the first hit just made me realize why I packed it up for good last time. If this was my first Dynavap I don't know if I would have ever purchased another product from them, so thankfully I didn't have that experience but I'll absolutely never buy another M. (unless they re-release the 2019)
Well, I don't care what anyone says, I think he's a very Good Dog.Hey, the reason he's worried is because he bought a '21 DV for me to try.

Also, if for whatever reason it doesnt hold up to what i need it to, @Bad Dog offered to switch my SS tip for a Ti tip via mail. So if it performs almost right, but not quite there, we'll do a swap. I'm incredibly thankful to have stumbled onto this place. Awesome people, amazing knowledge. Cant go wrong here at all! Tyvm everyone for not just calling me a noob and laughing like they do on reddit. Its a mighty fine breath of fresh air!
If I have learned anything about these it's that there are some pretty universal characteristics that carry across the user base for the most part, but everyone still has their individual experience with them. I think you will do just fine with it, it works just not how I would like it to work but I'm just nit-picking because I've gone so far down the rabbit hole I have nothing else left to talk about haha.Hey, the reason he's worried is because he bought a '21 DV for me to try.

Thanks! I agree, amazing thing he's doing for me. And thank you for offering advice. Thats exactly the behaviour i was talking about. This place is special, and I'm proud to have stumbled on it. Hoping that down the line i can do something similar for someone else. A pay it forward kinda thing lolIf I have learned anything about these it's that there are some pretty universal characteristics that carry across the user base for the most part, but everyone still has their individual experience with them.

That's such a cool thing @Bad Dog is doing and I really commend them for it, if I can help with anything please let me know.
Seems like you might have a little Golden Retriever there as well!I'm not changing my screen name!!!!!. maybe I have a little St. Bernard in me
get a Ti tip I'd recommend. the click comes faster, the taste is slightly better, and the dirt outside the tip gets less polymerized. much enjoyable I'd sayIm sure i'll get the hang of heating it and the ritual down. Thats the least of my concerns. And from everything i see, very few people complain that its not enough for them, at least from what ive read on both reddit and here.
Happy 420 everyone! Just realized its legit 420 today lol forgot all about it
Yer doin it right!ust realized its legit 420 today lol forgot all about it
I'm trying the SS tip first, but if it doesn't do the trick @badsaid that we can exchange the tips. He has a Ti tip and offered it to me right away after discovering that the '21 doesnt hit as hard as his '19. Eventually, if i like it, i'll start to accumulate tips and stems and caps and such lol and if i like it, its time to save for a IH lol but thats getting ahead of myselfget a Ti tip I'd recommend. the click comes faster, the taste is slightly better, and the dirt outside the tip gets less polymerized. much enjoyable I'd say
