Hi All,
Welcome to the Healthy Rips FIERCE thread!
In this post - we will be introducing our new upcoming Healthy Rips FIERCE convection technology vaporizer. Coming June, 2018!
We began the design and development our FIERCE during the summer and we have come a long way since then. We will be discussing the features of our upcoming FIERCE vaporizer - as well as posting pictures and a short video of our latest FIERCE prototype. Please keep in mind that this is a prototype and is not a finished or polished product (it’s a bit rugged). It has been assembled and modified by hand. This is not a production unit - so please don’t judge it by its aesthetics
. We still have several tweaks and adjustments to make - but the performance is awesome.
We are still in the development stages - therefore some of the information we are providing here is subject to minor changes as we progress.
Features:
Convection Technology
Isolated Air Path
Digital OLED Screen
Exact Temperature Control - single degree increments
Kirksite Alloy Body (unibody).
USB-C Charging 2A
USB-C Charging Dock 2A (optional)
4000 mAh Battery - safe Lithium Polymer (LiPo)
User replaceable battery
Fast heat-up time: 25-30 seconds
Long battery life: 110-120 minutes runtime per charge at maximum temperature 430° F
Accessories Attachment
Borosilicate Glass stems for Accessories Attachment - Mouthpiece and WPA
Auto shut-off timer
Adjustable session timer from 3-8 minutes
Haptic feedback - vibrates when turned on and when reaches temperature
Set degree display between C and F
Replaceable battery door (in case of damage or loss)
Large glass vapor path - very cool vapor
Stainless steel chamber
Protective Cover
Just over 2 hours to fully charge from completely dead
Run-time per battery charge: 112-120 minutes at max temperature 430° F
Accessories:
Accessories Attachment
Glass WPA - borosilicate
Glass Mouthpiece - borosilicate
Protective Cover - silicone (same design as the FURY 2)
Dosing Capsules
Oil & Wax Pad - stainless steel
Standard tools and brush
Extra O-rings and screen
User Manual
Size: 2.75" X 1.1" X 3.25"
Weight: 10 Ounces
Chamber Capacity: .25 - .29 grams
Target Pricing: $199 for base bundle. $229 including Charging Dock & Extra Battery.
Both bundles will include the Protective Cover, Accessories Attachment and your choice of Glass WPA or Glass Mouthpiece.
Extra Battery: $20
Charging Dock: $20
We have been very deliberate in our decisions on what features to include - and what features we sincerely believe are not in the best interest of our clients. We have anticipated some of the questions that you might have - and answered them here:
Why doesn't the FIERCE have ‘Pass through charging’ (the ability to use the vaporizer while it is charging)?
Answer: Pass through charging is bad for your battery - your battery will degrade much faster. With the FIERCE's extremely long battery life and swappable battery option - it is not necessary to have pass through charging. We feel that the longevity of the battery outweighs this benefit. Our FIERCE’s USB-C charging port is reversible, powerful and interchangeable. USB-C is the emerging standard and will be used on most - if not all of your latest and greatest devices.
Why Proprietary batteries instead of 18650’s?
Answer: Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries have a soft shell and are a safe alternative to 18650 batteries - but they must be soldered into the circuitry (not user replaceable). Our solution was to create a plastic battery pack with the LiPo battery soldered into the battery circuitry - making the battery pack user-replaceable. This solution provides a safer alternative to the replaceable hard-shell 18650 batteries. Our team has seen too many injuries from 18650 (metal hard-shell) batteries. They would not be the safest solution for our clients - and would be a potential liability for our company.
Why not include the charging dock and extra battery with the FIERCE?
Answer: We do. But we also offer the FIERCE for sale without the charging dock and battery for those who want to use the FIERCE as a rechargeable vaporizer and simply replace the battery after its lifespan. Just unscrew the battery door with a penny and swap/replace the battery.
The next phases of our development process look like this: Implement the final tweaks. Do a small 100-200 unit FIERCE production run and get them into the hands of our testing team. Get one last round of feedback from our testing team. Make any further adjustments if necessary. Finalize the FIERCE, packaging, manual, accessories, etc. Release the FIERCE to the public in June, 2018.
Our test team includes several internal and external groups including many of the most respected people on this forum: @stickstones @Stu @PuffItUp @ohmygodimsohigh @Vape Dr. @Vitolo and others (sorry if we didn’t mention you). Some of these FC members have already demoed this FIERCE prototype while we were at the Champs trade show in Las Vegas. We have already started making some adjustments to the FIERCE prototype based on the invaluable feedback we received from them. They are welcome to chime-in here if they feel inclined.
Whew! That all being said - please enjoy the following pictures and video of the Healthy Rips FIERCE prototype:

We hope you have thoroughly enjoyed the first look at our FIERCE
Target release date: June, 2018
All the Best!
