Pshh bed, Theresa new toy on the table...
Btw
@grokit I believe he means they are not shrink wrapped anyway, so don't think its been opened bc it was never sealed. There are no refurbished units bc it is still too knew and none have been returned.
I did charge it up with my cell phone charger cable, it also stuck out but connected better. It just looks like the Elevape has a really shallow input?
Anyway still doesn't solve my temp setting issues, but I tried it anyway and WOW. Yes this little guy is quite incredible, even with my limited (and unfortunately "in the dark" temp wise) use. Ofcourse like any convection I still need to perfect my hits and stirring methods. I also think I may find a way to get rid of a screen where I can just bc they get clogged so easily. Don't get me wrong this guy is great despite that, I just prefer no screens like in the Indica and T1, though I do use screens in my underdog ofcourse, but I'm still perfecting my draw on that as well (and this is much more consistent than that so far, very low learning curve here). So I'd like to figure out something more like the T1 screen as a sub the top mesh screen somehow, or maybe the bottom? similar to what someone else did (trying to figure out how to do the same for my gf's FlowerMate too, so a trip to the hardware store is nigh).
I also can see about taste, though mine is still brand new. It has that new taste, but it's not an off taste. Not have I had experience with those, and the Elevape has none. I've only run three bowls so I'm sure the new smell will bake out eventually. I am not worried about the glue either, no glue tastes and it is out if the airpath, flush against the outside of the bowl. The taste factor is just one reason I will ofcourse never give up my precious Indica either, as stainless steel just beats aluminum plain and simple. And obviously the Indica's fantastic pure conduction only serves as a compliment to the Elevape's wonderful pure convection. Quick size comparison for you with a black Indica beta:
So the Elevape is a tad shorter but also a tad thicker (doesn't fit in my car door handle like my Indica does unfortunately...), but they are about the same wait? Elevape may be slightly heavier.
Anyway the anodized aluminum on the Elevape, despite not being the best for taste is great to hold, soft but durable and textured finely. Really quite nice. And it stays quite cool in use as well, though I don't know if that would be true if you did a minute straight? Nor do I know if anyone could inhale that much for thsgong to keep the heater active lol, so it shouldn't be an issue at all. I agree the biggest negative right bow is the stirring, but that seems to be a common issue with nearly all pure convection vapes. Hopefully with this modular of a portable, one of us can engineer a nice solution (like were all trying to do with the top screen/screw). I also agree about the lid tightness, even with one magnet. No magnets really keeps it right enough though
@chillersnov8p ? Maybe I will take the other magnet out of this lid too, since I have a new fully magnetic one coming soon (nice to have a spare in any case).
Just like I've very successfully done with my Solo and and Indica, the Elevape passed the dog walk test, quick and easy to puff on as I stroll. And on tip of that, it fits more hidden on my hand than the Indica does, so not only discrete in quick puffs, but also tiny size as well!
Anyway, as you can see I'm already pretty happy despite the lid issue, and despite the app issue. So imagine how much better this is gonna get... I feel like I'm going to be able to refer to this along with the Indica as my bread and butter lol, the perfect portable pair! Right now its all Elevape though for time being so I can polish my experience, man this weekend can't get here soon enough...
