Dynavap VapCap

All great news , George ! I'm really looking forward to receiving my titanium , and I'm eager to hear about those "new items" !Greetings,
I'm a bit sorry for the absence here recently. It is your fault. All of you. Wow! I feel like I'm in one of those documentary movies where the orders just start coming in and everyone is just sharing X product because they want to.
All of a sudden I am out of supplies I had no idea I would run out of so quickly. I thought the orders would settle down after the holiday, but nope, not just steady one here and one there, but accelerating orders. So the past few weeks have been a bit challenging as I not only had to focus on scaling manufacturing, but producing units AND ordering more supplies. I have to say I am just floored!
I would like to thank everyone for giving me a reason to make every single VapCap. Every Vap I make brings me a smile when I think about how this (seemingly) simple device can improve people's life on several different levels, and especially that level where grief from the vaporizer not functioning correctly is non existent.
These are some of my thoughts as I take a break in my shop as it is approaching 2am
I just received my special diamond grinder yesterday. These are the first precision ground VapCaps. These will be the newest improvement to the OG VC. The grinding happens on a very precise setup so I can now make every VapCap body precise at the cap interface. This is exciting stuff for me.
I am getting together the largest gathering of VapCaps in the world. Biggest gathering ever!

Oh, and here is another thought of a product applying for acceptance to V.A.S. university.
Yup, the Ti tip fits.
Please let me know if the "administration" should consider enrollment into the modular lineup.
So also, an update on shipments. I will have quite a few VapCaps going out on Friday. The Ti Woody shipments will start again on Tuesday or Wednesday after the next batch of fantastically sweet sweet stems arrive from @Ed's TnT
Also another thing I was contemplating as I've been sitting here building and assembling Vaps is the fact that it is this forum and its members that are almost exclusively responsible for how anyone is finding out about this product. I haven't ever advertised, and if you look at my facebook page, well no one even goes there.
The past 6 months I have really enjoyed the interaction of everyone here, and this interaction has certainly accelerated the development of my product into an entire product line. Day by day everything seems to take too long, but when I look at what has progressed over the past 6 months I can hardly believe the difference.
And to top it off, I will have more good news as some other items I have been working for a while now are almost ready for release. Guaranteed fun.
So again thank you everyone for helping me get to this point.
Cheers,
George

It might be, but the design doesn't really lend it to attack from cheap labor counterfeiters, and there's not a lot of profit per unit to attract such stuff. If 'the usual suspects', PIU, PV and so on have it for $30 or so I don't think a Black market has all that much of a chance?
Most of the magic in the basic unit is in the clicking cap I think. That means first rate tooling and material and process controls to get the accuracy and stability needed. Counterfeiters are likely to be plagued with performance/quality/reliability problems.
Then again, these days crooks will copy most anything. I just don't see a lot of profit in an organized effort here. The demand would have to be huge and supply of legitimate ones short or more expensive (which can be the same thing....).
I didn't think we were allowed to post pornography here.
Sure, it's a guy thing....... Right?
And pretty subjective, didn't some judge say 'I can't define it, but I know it when I see it'?
Just think, those lovely vapes are about to go on their way, spreading joy. Think of all the happy owners yet to be.

I had a few hickups with the vapcap at first but it now is my daily driver! Vapman feels very lonely these days...

Wow, I tried the OG VapCap with Rosin the other day. The flavor, smoothness & clouds were off the chart.
The only problem was I got too ripped and decided that I needed to clean it(it gets very sticky with rosin) & broke the condensing tube
In some ways I prefer it to the VapeXnail, I find the vapor density too thick with the EVO and struggle not to cough, no issue on the VapCap.

I received 4 OG glasses last Saturday, and I have to say, they have been everything I dreamed they would be and more! At first I was keeping the carb closed and I was getting choked out, but after reading some of the later post, I read where some people where hitting it without ever using the carb and drawing really slow. That technique worked really good for me. George wrote me a note on the directions that the green & purple case had different draw characteristics and to let him know what one I preferred. I think I like the purple one better because I don't get choked up as much compared to the green cased one. I think I need too do more testing though! I definitely want to upgrade, but not sure if I want the woodie or the glassy! Probably the glassy! I would like to get the titanium VC once that's available!
I think this is a real game changer and I look forward to see how this unit evolves over time!
Thanks George!

Good news!
I worked well into the am today to get a nice pile of VapCaps ready to ship, and they are now all nestled snug in their tubes. I have to also mention that there really isn't much I would rather be doing.
I thought I could share a little of what I was looking at last night.
And now almost every unit I made will be going on a ride tomorrow morning.
And the packaging. So off these will go to hopefully bring a smile to their new caretakers.
I will be back at it tomorrow getting more units ready and hope to get them mailed Saturday and Monday.
The TI Woody stems will be here soon and I'll be ready when they do to get them assembled then turn them around ship them right out.
Thank you again for the support here. I know this project wouldn't be near as far along if it weren't for the support of this community!

If I buy on your website how long is the wait for shipment. I'm guessing there's a long line for these bad boys.
Oh, and just in case some of you haven't seen the new wood varieties I added to the DynaStash Lineup
Here is a picture.
The picture doesn't show how awesome these really are.
And I would appreciate feedback from anyone who has one of these regarding whether they like my little magnet stand built into the stash for, well all DynaVap Vaps. It also will hold your stash under the metal pencil drawer on most desks and under toolbox lids too.

FUCKITY FUCK!
Took me a few days to get this down and Ive been taking it everywhere... until I dropped it today shattering my fluted stem
I need bodies.
BTW I absolutely love my dugout. I have one of the Leopard exotics above and it is beautiful!
The functionality of the magnet is perfect too, I could not imagine using a VC without it!

So exciting! You've been working hard. This is gonna be huge for you!
Might want to take down that pic with people's addresses, just in case.

I had to step back from my VC for a while (when I first received it), and re-evaluate what I wanted from it and how I was actually using it. When I came back to it a few weeks later with a fresh perspective I loved it. It sounds like you are having a similar experience, and I'm glad to hear you're coming back around to team vap!

Quick tech tip:
Steel wool works great to buff a cap to pristine condition should something get accidentally melted onto it such as stretch nylon winter glove material.

who or where did you order your Vapcap from? I just got a Vaponic and now I'd like a Vapcap...just for fun.Oh, and just in case some of you haven't seen the new wood varieties I added to the DynaStash Lineup

@VapCap makes the vapcap, so he likely didn't order his from elsewhere
The website for the VapCap (dynavap.com) is the only place to order, currently. George has been stockpiling parts, and seems to be delivering units within a few weeks of ordering. The modular (Ti tip) vap is his newest model, with numerous body, condenser, and mouthpiece choices becoming available as he finishes designs =)
If you are waffling on the Vap, I say get the original for $30 -- it's next to nothing for a cool butane powered vape that is simple to use and maintain, but has a lot of versatility the more you get to know it.

The original is $30 plus shipping. I ordered myself the Ti woody version this week, this will b my first butane vaporizer.

My next vape will be a Woody TI, really love the idea to enjoy some herb in a chilled settting with just a tea light and this device, slowly rolling the cap over the flame until it discretly clicks.
For the moments when every electronic device disturbs the setting this looks like the ultimate answer to me.
Any plans to offer some other woodtypes in the near future?

@horst it may take some time to reach the click temp with a candle and any soot will be annoying. Also paraffin wax taste may be detectable.
Sorry not trying to burst the chilled setting bubble. The torch does detract from it so I fully understand where you are coming from. I've been looking for some other form of heating that is hot and clean but a little more chilled. I've found these but I think again soot, smell and taste may be present if they are not very efficient. The RHS one should be a cleaner burn. Okay for a low light level so you could see it was lit. Would be careful if in sunlight or levels where the flame was not clearly visible.

Actually the soot can be avoided if you hold the vapcap over the flame. The soot comes from touching the metal against the flame. I've done it successfully several times. No paraffin wax taste either. It's pretty cool. @horst What you are seeking is totally possible.
