I just got back from taking my nano out to a vacation home. Left the unit outside, powered on for 2 days straight. Had 5 people who shared it with me. No smoking was allowed in the home so we honored thay request.
The was sheltered from rain but when the winds picked up it really started to struggle. Im used to white walling my fc187 on setting 6.5 but i had to get the unit cranked to 8 to get noticeable vapor to demonstrate to the folks who are used to combusting how the vaped worked. Had one guy flame up a load so we turnee it down to 7.
To be honest i was disappointed by the performance outdoors, in the wind.... Even though i knew it was going to suffer it really took a dive in vapor production. However, all of the new guys loved the nano even though it was hitting lightly.
I have a windscreen from an old, portable camp stove, will be taking that along with me if i use the nano outdoors again.
Yeah.... think this comes under the heading of ambient temp that's been discussed before. I notice the same at home with ac on and ceiling fan close to right above me, but fortunately 1/2 notch on the dial solves that problem. Think this would be the same with any log vape or with any similar heater>chamber>bubbler set up. There's really a small amount of area in there and it is all surrounded by glass. Glass needs to be a decent temp or things won't go well. Think this is why heatsoaking works as well as it does. It is heating the glass to get it up to temp, not really heating the load so much. If in a good breeze, the glass will stay cooler and would think some of that wind could be swirling around inside the nano itself and cooling the heating element. If the wind isn't a constant speed and direction (pretty much always), it would be hard to set the temp exactly right for conditions - leading to some hits light and others scorched.
Windscreen may do it, but may have to just get out of the wind some - like around a corner or something. It can be overcome if not too much, but can definitely see where it could be problematic with the nano. Even if you can get it up to temp for some hits, that will probably be too hot when the wind wanes or shifts direction a little. When I've been using mine outside with an inverter, it is usually in the open trunk or hatchback of a car. Don't recall strong winds any of those times, but think being sort of "inside" would help keep this problem to a minimum too.
Let us know if the windscreen works or you find another workaround. Glad to hear everyone enjoyed it in spite of reduced performance!
You can always get an inverter and plug the nano into a socket in the rv
Think most newer RVs convert to AC all the time. And, the nano draws few amps so shouldn't be a big drain on the system. Definitely something to figure out a few days before you get on the road though, so you can pick up the DC>AC converter/inverter if you need it before you go.
Is there a significance to July 10th? If there is a high likelihood of a sale coming up on that date, I'll happily wait, especially if it is likely to come with fresh stock.
7/10 is the 4/20 of dabbing. Many weed related places have sales. Can't recall if Epicvape did last year. I'd ask them. Andy or Nadia would probably say if they're planning something.
