Discontinued herbalAire

[lazylathe]

Yea, I saw that too. I just PM'ed puffitup, as you recommended, with a question about discounts and availability.

The 2.2 has been discontinued and the H3 is the new kid.
Vaporizers.ca has HerbalAire's in stock!
H3 is $219 plus tax but it is local so no duties.

2.2 kit with pump from planet of the vapes. Might gift it to my brother as my existing 2.2 still works great, just couldnt pass up the deal.

Ordered an HA Elite directly from herbalAire: they had a nice deal 25% off.

I was at first going to buy it from planetvape.ca — they had the best price, but they couldn't beat HA's 4/20 deal, they didn't offer any discounts... although their customer service is great, I like that retailer, but... sorry, PlanetVape! THank you, HerbalAire!

I've been using my H3 lite and really liking it. I love the crucible design over my 2.2. The teflon part clips onto the top of the crucible which makes it really easy to handle. The deeper crucible is also a huge improvement, I don't have to let it sit there and heat up to get snug so it doesn't just pop right out when I use it. I also got some of the concentrate crucibles with glass beads in them, but I haven't tried them yet. My only complaint is the light is a little bright, otherwise though I love it as much as my 2.2. It's a little more sturdy and the dial looks nicer too. Overall super happy, if I could only have one vape my HA would still be it.

Thank you for sharing, @StormyPinkness. I've found myself wondering about getting an H3 eventually though my H2.2 is still going strong. I like the idea of having a better way to remove hot crucibles.

Thought I was the only one I've always put stickers on the base to dim the light.

If you use the pump, I suggest getting the high output pump... hopefully they have finally integrated that one so it works with the timer built into the Elite.

Thank you for the suggestion, but enjoy the direct draw method only. No use for pumps, bags or digital features of the Elite: when the time comes, will get an H3 Lite.

Picked up a Glass 18mm adapter from planet vape Ca and it's a joy to use. The flavor of a glass airpath really adds to the HA experience

Edit: I misunderstood, you're talking about replacing the teflon mouth piece I think.

I agree, I really like the vapexhale one I got for $20 for it.

could you tell me the details on the 18mm adapter? cost? does it release from the chamber without fusing. I know there were problems with it releasing. no problems?

You are correct, though cool link .

Cost alone is about 30$ but got it in a bundled deal with a high output punp for the same price off ebay.

It will release just fine but the chamber must be heated first. So in short as long as you are fixing to use the thing it works great with no issue.
Though if you leave it in and let it cool its not coming out till you heat it up

You can pick up 14mm one of dhgate for around 8$ though I cant speak to its quality. The PV one is top grade.

I haven't looked into the herbalaire for years, main reason being it was not considered good at direct draw. I've been seeing these mods that people are doing and have realized that's not exactly true or the people on FC wouldn't be doing it, probably.

It's definitely rekindled my interest in the device, I'll have to read back a little.

 

[Amoreena]

... reason being it was not considered good at direct draw. ....

FWIW, I consider it good at direct draw.

 

[Incariol]

Do you use a mod or standard fittings,? Is there a difference in models? I'm looking at the h3, but I'd like to get one from the classifieds because I'm crazy cheap.

 

[Amoreena]

I use standard mouthpieces. The H3 is a little different, as you can see from pictures. I think it may be an improvement, but am very happy with my H2.2 and in no hurry to upgrade to the H3.

 

[Incariol]

Yes I think I'd be perfectly happy with a 2.2 given what you've just said and what I'm reading.

That misconception was started by those who were fanboys of certain direct draw vapes, and probably never even gave it a chance, imo.

How can a vape be so awesome in 'direct through water' mode, if it can't be excellent in direct draw mode only, to begin with ??

I've been using the HA with the VXL standard dry tube and it works great

I can answer that. If you're doing direct draw with the stock mouthpiece, and without using a whip, the heating chamber is very close to your mouth. The vapor is still relatively hot when it hits your throat. In my house, multiple users reported a sore throat after a direct draw session. After I noticed the same thing on myself, we started attaching a long glass mouthpiece for direct draw usage, and the sore throats disappeared.

For the best experience with the HA in direct draw, I recommend using a whip or a glass mouthpiece that extends the distance between the heater and your mouth, and allows the vapor to cool before hitting your throat.

Not saying the HA isn't good for direct draw, because I use it that way often. But straight out of the box, with the stock mouthpiece, the vapor can be too hot for many people.

This also explains why its possible for a vaporizer to be amazing through water, but not so great in direct draw.

 

[RUDE BOY]

I often used one of the 6 inch extenders with one of the mouthpieces from the bags for direct draw when I had my HA and it worked nicely, Not as cool as hits from a whip with the vapolution vapor barrel but it wasn't really hot or harsh either.
