Well, after almost a month....the eagle (INH6S) has finally landed!!!!
First impressions are quite positive.... very professionally packaged and shipped. I'll put up some pictures later when time permits. However, I must admit - this is some of the best packaging i've ever seen for a vaporizer....very much like a quality Apple product. I think perhaps the Grasshopper has similar packaging, but still not as nice as the Inhalater. Very classy.
Greg really hooked me up with accessories...everything needed was in the box....capsules, extras, aero capsule, glass capsule, WPA, and the best quality longest micro USB charge cable i've ever seen. Also included was a "white USB plug in charger plug" that looks like my Apple one. Instruction manual is basic, but adequate. I did need to contact Greg to help explain the pulse modulation a little better.
So first impression looked great....even better that it arrived fully charged and ready to go! Unfortunately, my Lift Innovations grinder is still in shipping, so I had to resort to my only grinder - which produces a very rough coarse shred, but it's doable.
I'm not sure how quick previous iterations of this device heat up, but other than my GH's, this thing heats up FAST! Not 5 seconds fast, but it was faster than 30 secs i'm pretty sure. And that's to max temp (9). The form factor kicks ass, the feel and quality of the device are top notch....much better than the previous INH004 I had many years back. LOVE the top cap and how it attaches to the bottom temp dial for even more ergonomics!
I had to try everything for the first time, so tried out the polyimide capsule, WPA, and the glass capsule. I think the glass capsule is my favourite of them all.... I had the best sessions and experience with it, with the best looking ABV for my tastes. I tend to start alot higher on the dial since i'm a high temp user, but get way better ABV when I start lower and temp step.
I'm still getting the hang of the Inhalater and there is a small learning curve since this vape is so unique in its function. It doesn't have a massive thermal mass, but rather a light heating technology that will appeal to flavour savour's and those not chasing massive dense clouds. It will produce and billow out clouds, but this is a conduction hybrid vape so your technique must compensate. It reminds me of the Arizer portables in this respect, as I don't have much experience with conduction vapes.
I must say, i've been extremely impressed by Greg and Pharmacor Technologies, I didn't really know what to expect, but everything works perfectly, and reliability is yet to be determined with time, as is their customer service/warranty rma process.
I think the INH6S is a pretty underrated and awesome portable vaporizer, however still feel that the price of the device is not in line with reality for a vaporizer like this. I think that S&B charge too much as well, however they can justify it, just look at their popularity and sales, regardless of durability and reliability.
I feel that i've not done proper justice to the Inhalater, even though I think it's a decent device, I will be passing on this demo (with permission from Greg) to our friend
@lazylathe for further review and testing. We both have similar interests and tastes in vapes, however he will be able to provide more technical/science based feedback that will be a benefit to the thread and FC community!
Thanks again to Greg and Pharmacor for allowing this beast into the wild for us to sample and torture test!
The Inhalator LIVES!
I think I need a finer or medium grind to be optimal with this vape.
