Airvape legacy pro caps

The lid is upside down compared to S&B caps

Side note: I find it funny I'm now more likely to use these more in the Frolic than in the ALVP2

wow thats nice, I enjoy microdosing also,
how are these working for you, do you have any pictures of these caps inside the frolic

haha thats funny that you will use these more on frolic vs the vape it was made for lol

those caps look like they were made for the Frolic, I found them on the internet
i will definately be buying these for our Frolic

thanks for sharing all the golden gems bro!

Last entry for tonight. I feel like I've unlocked low temps in on-demand mode. Basically, to get decent performance with lower temps, you have to restrict your airflow more as the temps get lower. Makes sense to me as restricting airflow will slow the passage of air from the heater through the flower, effectively heating the flower for a longer time than a high airflow setting would.

I suppose you could get this effect by also just slowing your draw but I find it's not so easy to do this, especially if the airflow is on a very open setting.

I just had my best on-demand session yet at 390F. It takes a couple of pulls to get things going but once the vapor starts, the clouds are very big and the taste is really great. Now we're talking.

haha GET'EM Bro!
so this is good data,
one question how are you drawing?"
are you ripping it really hard or medium rip?

how much are you closing the air 40%?30%?
No rush you can answer back tomorrow if you like, I know its late
I am outside with my daughter and the Telescopes its a pretty clear night!

I think this was brought up before but did I read that the Storz and Bickel Dosing Capsules are loose or too tall for the Frolic? Also, has anyone tried the herb “puck” makers for Frolic vaping? Specifically the Storz and Bickel herb presses that make little pucks… I imagine the pucks may be too dense and thick for good results in a mostly convection oven system, where a loose but full bowl is best for good airflow/penetration?

@Dejan LimelightHerb do y’all have plans for a capsule of your own for the Frolic?

Wow - finally a worthy competitor to S&B. Beautiful industrial design and execution from the looks of it!

Question mainly for my curiosity. Since cooling of the vapor is the primary goal, why is PEEK chosen for the air pathway over, say, aluminum whose heat dissipation is (should be) superior?

Heat dissipation properties. You don't want to cool down the vapor too fast as it will cause condensation or rather more condensation and hinder the output vapor. I have explained in more detail in one of the previous posts why the CU was designed the way it was and how the whole thermodynamics principle of it works and why the passages are organized the way they are.

Mainly cost, I bought 3 Mighty cooling units for $60 where 1 stainless steel unit is $100 and if you can 3D print it, even cheaper. Detailed units or parts machined from SS, Ti and aluminum can be tedious and expensive to manufacture. imo

Heat transfer and dissipation properties. Production price is one thing and sales price another.

I'm not drawing super hard but at least medium speed. The nice thing about controlling draw speed through restriction is that even if you want to draw hard, the airflow restriction will limit you and you will still get the slower speeds you need for effective vaping at lower temps.

For tastier on-demand hits at 385-390F, I have restriction set to 60% closed or more. Sounds like a lot but the airflow range on the Frolic is huge.

Yes, the S&B caps fit but are too tall. They will work but the CU doesn't fit flush. I'm using AVLP caps and they're almost perfect but still a couple mm too tall.

I'm quite sure weed pucks, even very compressed, will work well in the Frolic. I'm basing this on the fact that the AVLP also had 3rd party puck-making tools and these worked very well even though its heater has far less power than the Frolic. Also, I pack my AVLP capsules really tight in the Frolic and it just powers through them, effectively prolonging your session.
Even a tight weed puck in on-demand mode with no capsule would be no problem imo depending on airflow/heater settings.

@Dejan LimelightHerb do y’all have plans for a capsule of your own for the Frolic?

Yes, he has mentioned they will be making capsules down the road for the Frolic.

Sorry, this didn't appear when I answered above. Absolutely yes, we will have them done shortly I can not estimate the exact timeframe at the moment, I will update you as we move along with this and the other accessories.

Another good news it that we received the drafts of the CE safety and EMC certificates and they all passed with flying colors. I will update this info on the website.

I find battery vapes a lot more miss than hit, but the conduction element and the 2-week guarantee have me interested in taking a punt. A couple of questions:

- would I just order from the EU store to get to Australia?
- how does that 2-week guarantee work when it will take at least that long to get here? Does the 2 weeks start when it lands, and give me 2 weeks to potentially lodge return shipping if I don't like it?

Thanks Dejan, you do a good job here - I feel like you should turn your answers here into a message book and populate your website FAQs, cos all your answers are written already.

I agree with you that battery vapes are hard to get perfect. I haven't finished completely dialing in this vape but I don't think you'll be disappointed with it. It's still early but I'm pretty confident this vape will be a winner. The speed and power is undeniable and I was worried about taste up until last night but no more.

Last night with some airflow control, I feel I've unlocked some really great tasting hits as well. Unless something catastrophic happens in further use it will no doubt be my go-to outside the house. Finally a portable that has power, speed, battery life and ruggedness while capable in both session and on-demand modes.

Mines arrived. Sat in the garden this evening getting high and drinking London pride.

Its pretty hardcore. If you fill its massive bowl, it kicks out the biggest clouds I have ever seen from any portable. But its a lot of herb.

One thing I don't like at all. The main button on the side. Its not a nice click, a spongy kinda press, and a couple of times I have miss pressed, not good.

Overall build quality feels good. But I kinda worry a bit around the area the mouthpieces push in. Does not feel solid.

But wow those clouds from a full bowl, destroyed.

thank you for the detail on the button, sounds like there is room for improvement. a satisfying click is a must imo, and maybe something against misfiring too.

Nice!

I find it can be a bit sensitive i.e. too easy to press sometimes, although I always feel a click.

I thought so too initially but after using it a while it seems tough enough. I think it's the nature of PEEK plastics that have a bit of flex.

But wow those clouds from a full bowl, destroyed.

Yep.

My biggest gripe with the Frolic so far is that there's no easy, visible way to see what your airflow is set to. There's a faint line in the PEEK that shows where the airflow stopper is hidden underneath the rotating stem but it's so faint you basically can't see it unless there's a lot of light and contrast. My solution was to place a colorful sticky dot of fabric on the piece so I can see where the airflow stopper is on the dial.

Normally, you're not always adjusting airflow settings but it's easy to move your airflow setting by mistake if you're using the swiveling fold-out mouthpiece and you rotate it.

I think your points here are very compelling especially with regard to airflow control. Thanks for posting this.

With regard to where the control indicators are can they be highlighted (eg paint) in some way so they are more visible. My taking after wrenching on cars for many years. Maybe there is a temp fix for now but perhaps this can be addressed in upcoming model revisions by Dejan?

Encouraging feedbacks ! Can we have a bit more feedback on microdosing ? About how much is the minimal amount of herb to have a full dark roast at high temps on demand without a reducer or something ? Someone talked about the screen just covered, should that be a bit less then 0.1 I would guess ? Also can someone who already has crafty glass reducers try them ? Can't be patient till end of next week when I should (?) have it. 0.3 is like my standard in week evening consumption, would'nt like to raise my tolerance and vape it in 3 hits.

One would have to assume that the reducer would work, but like you, I'll have to wait until one is in my hands to be sure. The crafty/mighty capsules are 8.5-8.6mm tall, the reducers that I have from sneaky pete are 7mm tall. I believe the reported gap left by the capsules was just over 1mm.
