:wave:Finally bought an I-XP, ordered yesterday from PV; recv'd notice today that I can A) get one with the funky looking but working charger port or B) wait for another month to get one with new case that fits properly. I've waited this long, but another month makes me sad... So close...what to do?? :whoa:

haha nothing personal! honestly i just couldnt think of anything clevar... :dog:

i love my XP. its built very solid.
I watched you go back & forth... One of the reasons I waited was to hear your response. So glad it's worked so well AND you let us know.

NOW I take a sec to check newer posts, thanks for info that I'm not alone waiting and craving for a month :wave:

Many thanks for the support. We accept creticism. Nerver tire of saying we will get to perfection sooner than later :-)

Honestly USB relocation is not appearant with decal on and we do have a new assembler who does have the touch for finish. Even without the sticker it looks good.

Over the weekend I have been using the white one pictured earlier; #1225. Never gave the port a second tought. Was just happy to have the tool. There are some pretty awesome natural blends one can make. No kidding.

The peeling is not an issue anymore. We have high tack vinyl - won't come off easy I garantee. As for the silver units wich were problematic because of aluminum undercoat; we add some reenforcements to eleminate peeling.

Thanks for the chimp comment; I will pass it on. lol ;-)

Yes new styles are coming up. Will post them end of the week.

Yes new batch coming up very soon.

New styles meaning purely cosmetic, or with new/upgraded technology?

Not all the first gen units died right away; I got a first gen unit and it lasted for 4 months: it only just died about a week ago... The serial number on this unit was 4; so it definitely was in the first batch


to begin with the first bacht didnt have a serial number ...so having 4 as serial number is not possible...secondly still your unit died after 4 months...is 4 months an acceptable time period for 250$?

on mine Xp the serial number written on the unit is A00004 but the real serial number was written on a little stick of paper scotch on the unit when I received it, and it's not 4, I keep it and put it on my userguide, I think that you are in the same case

Please try to be positive. We really are working hard to get everything settled out and are commited to you.

We know how frustrating the situation is for the ones who received faulty units.

To give some perspective; a customer has reported that he exchanged a competitors unit (P**) 9 times.

Cosmetic change additionnaly to Q3 electronics upgrade

@Trippinoverstuff I'm in the same boat. I think the handcut usbport should be better quality than the picture I posted earlier. According to Inhalater, a new Assembler has a better touch and has replaced the old chimp. However, if more than just cosmetics are changed, then it may be worth the month wait.

So the question we are waiting on,

@Inhalater Can we get a list of the exact differences between this release and the next? because if its waiting for just a machine cut, I think many will be fine with the handcut. Hopefully the pic to reassure us comes before PV decides to ship.

Edit: Just saw your edit. Are you saying the October 1st release will have improved electronics compared to the current release?

wow and that makes it ok? i am so glad i exchanged mine and that was 4 months ago. you still barely have a working product. to anyone who has not ordered an xp dont thats my :2c:. this product was released more than 7 months ago and still very few fc users have working units and the few that do have problems like running hot.

i think its great that inhalater tries to keep everyone informed and makes a good product when they work correctly but this is ridiculous. they have been working out the bugs for months and still keep having to put out new batches and find new parts.

im sorry for the criticism but any member can look back through this thread and see the cycle.

release new batch with "no bugs", new batch has problems, inhalater explains why there are bugs and starts a new batch while customers have to wait, then the new batch comes out and the whole cycle starts over agian.

Well it shows that's it normal and for some it is worst. That it is evolution of any product. We have been at this for 6 years now! :-!

What is the alternative? to wait and expect that product will come out of the closet perfect?

I think it is more positive to look at what`s being done; there is no one single complaint we have discarted or considered unworthy. All fixes and bugs are for what users have come upon and asked for. The users input is making the product much better, without this, product could not be so good.

For example: heating temperature; for the same calibration we had complaints as being too hot for some and too cold cold for others. How do you account for that? We have to go back to engineering then production then ultimate testing by the users. Then again some may find flaws because this is not how they use the technology.

No difference other than machine cut ports up to release of Q4 - same electronics new molded bodies with extra features - just in times for Christmas

We will continue to improve electronics as required by the test of use. Technology is 90% stable.

The current units are the best yet. Feel confident in your investment.

Hip & RT, I believe in the Inhalater XP & guess I will until thonked in the head with overwhelming evidence there is a better way to go. I have "pre-ordered" with a great discount at PV, BUT couldn't pre-order the capsules or other out-of-stock accessories, which is a bummer, as it'd be nice to get all in one shipment w/discount and free shipping.

My research still supports what Pharmacor is trying to/accomplishing as the best portable vape for my needs. Over the past year, more are happy than not and customer support is better than most IMO. I'm willing to try to work with some growing pains as so far I've found very little perfection in the world I'm living in :cool:. I AM thinking of getting something to tide me over, perhaps the :mflb:, which can be passed on to kids (LOL) if I no longer find a use for it after getting the I-XP.

Being positive, feeding the happy wolf, whatever works and Oct is my birth month so am hoping to get it by the 7th. Later than that might change my attitude but for now my heart is set on this vaporizer.

After seeing Inh newest post: But when talk turns to Christmas, that's too far away for me to consider right now. Stay upbeat

If you did get another vape while you wait should keep it as a back up.. I learned the hard way..

When did you deal with their customer service? You dont have your XP yet?

October is a great month, my bday is on the 6th :)
I really hope I have my replacement before then :lol:

Definitely agree. The XP is simply the best on the market right now. I can't wait to get mine. As soon as @Inhalater uploads the picture of the Black Handcut usb port I will make up my mind about getting it now or waiting until October. The fact that the electronics aren't changing, actually makes my decision a little easier now. For now, I think I'll be taking the handcut one based on the following:
1. Its supposedly much better than the image I posted, which for me was already not too bad.
2. Its a working model. Who knows if this next release we get an email saying, "Well the XP works great, but there is a small electronic bug..." I'd rather deal with a small "cosmetic imperfection" rather than the possibility of something bigger going wrong and having waiting for no reason.


@Rrose Selavy Just because you've had bad luck with the product doesn't mean that everyone else has. You were an early jump on a newly released product, when has their ever been a product without a single issue at release? Anyone following this thread already knows that the XP is an amazing decide and MANY users have already stated that it is simply the best and swear by it entirely. I could go ahead and quote a few for you, but you seem pretty decided as is. If you don't want the XP, thats fine, it's not for you. But at least do us a favor and stop spreading misinformation around the thread. The current model IS WORKING, and there are SEVERAL FC users that love their XPs.

Edit: Just to add to that, I encourage you to look through the first few pages of any vape on FC and try to find a single one without complaints. For example, the ascent is looking much worse than the XP ever did...

@hiphiphooray you havent even received your device or even used it yet, How are you praising a product you haven't ever owned? "XP is simply the best" :hmm:
I have owned the og inhalater and the xp.. neither of them are in use cause neither of them work! You are in this thread defending a product you haven't even touched yet :rofl:

i feel like mentioning again that indeed after all these problems we had both me and my best friend now that we both have a "working" unit (one has broken led and the other one if u dont let it very gently on the table when charging it stops charging but both producing decent vapor+decent battery autonomy) we are really pleased with the product and we really dont regret the purchase and i personally would recommend it as the best portable vape i have tried so far and i even use it as a plug in vape because when charging it still can be in use...my only concern that its my only vape and the past ones were not so trustworthy after all...if the technology gets completely stabilized i would really think of upgrading mine to a stable unit or even purchasing a second xp as a backup unit because i dont feel any other portable would be able to substitute it...

I have two friends who have already recommended the og inhalater to me, and a third who bought one of the first XPs. He loved it immediately and said it was great, but like most of that generation, it broke. His current version (I'm guessing gen 2 or 3) is still working today. And I was only saying that because so many people have already said its a great product here in this thread. The only negative complaints I've seen are coming from the same 4 or 5 people that just had bad luck with two broken XPs. I've read the entire thread, and there are about equal good reviews and bad reviews, but there are also 1200 units to date. I'm willing to bet that the majority of users are quietly enjoying their XP.

True I haven't used it, and I don't mean to be defending the product, I am just saying there are a lot of positive reviews, and then a few FC members who are extremely unhappy and feel the company should suffer by constantly writing ridiculous negative comments.

Edit: Just to show you, I'll post some positive comments that are as numerous as your negative ones...

had mine since March and it doesnt "run hot". its damn near perfect.
After getting well acquainted with my new xp over the last 2 days, I can safely say it produces excellent vapour.

Very dense clouds and no funny taste after doing a 2 cycle burn in with AVB. In fact, density increased with my 2nd cycle on the same load. After starting a 3rd session in a row on same load, my head couldn't take anymore so decided to dump it out at that point. Very evenly browned AVB.

I had the capsule about 3/4's full with high grade, finely grinded material, and timed each session to be approx. 10min before auto-shiutoff.

I even tried the auto mode on the 3rd session which was interesting as I don't normally go up than high in temp, so that was intense. The AVB was near black, but not burnt at all.

Very happy with mine so far, and looking forward to receiving my 2nd one. After that, I am getting rid of all my other vapes as they may not see any use in future.

The only thing I haven't done yet is get a count of sessions per charge, which I'll do after getting my 2nd unit as I need a charged unit available at all times.
Meghan, if you want the better real portable on the market look for the Xp, I got mine beginning of june (first batch, I think) and it still working everyday with everything and everytime, it didn't deceive me, if you are a cloud hunter this is for you!
just packed a cap 1/2 way. turned it to 2.5 and let it simmer for about 40 secs after the light went solid... im getting rips like from an ecig. straight plumes of vapor. i feel extremely lucky that my XP has lasted this long, but everyday the thought crosses my mind that it may fail. when they finally get this shit all dialed in it will be almost perfect.
Thoroughly enjoying my newer batch Inhalater XP. The battery duration still amazes me. I haven't let it run to empty because I don't want to, but despite numerous lengthy vape sessions it hasn't died on me yet.
This thing is awesome, i'm so medicated right now:freak: , i recently (5 minute ago practically) finished my first session with the inhalater xp that i received today with the courier.

I have the last batch of component model i guess, is the shorter version, 2 holes,perfect aesthetic (even the micro usb port is better than the one that is mounted on my galaxy s3 lol) e with so many usefull accessories, even with 4 isopropyl alcohol swab for the cleaning in combo with the paper stick, very well:clap:

The warm up time is ridicoulosly short, 15 sec for the 3rd level and practically no time for go up each time a the next level, 4 then 5 and finish with 6, at that point I was so much medicated that I turn off the inh.
The herb is uniformly light brown colour and in a little while i'll kill the caps with another session at 7 and 8:smug:

The taste is better in the solo but only for the first hit, after becomes equal, in addition, the inh xp is still new, it made only 2 burn session of 8 min with the empty caps inside, i think will improve the taste after a while of daily use!

The extraction is better than the solo, with the same quantity of herb that i usually use for a session with the solo (3\4 caps a little pressed up), the Inh xp give to me much more thick hit (both number and thickness) than the solo, the herb is not yet exausted and still remain the levels 7-8 to try with the same caps, so unlimited hit if i had to say something about it:D

There is virtually no resistance in the draw what so ever, i had to put a finger in one of the 2 holes because i'm used to the resistance of my solo, this thing is extraordinary, is like a vape joint with all the pro of both and almost no difect.

This portable vaporizer will split my head in 2 half on my imminent trip to barcelona:rockon:

Again, sorry for possibly language errors.

I understand, I was just curious that was all. I never said I didnt agree with the reviews, as I was probably the first one to give it a positive video review and raved about it all over.:bang:

But sometimes its not about the product, but the company behind it.. once your money is out of your hands (and your 250$ is just paper weight) and your left with nothing for the time being your mood can quickly change,

I was never in any way bias, I just tell it how it is, negative or positive. Its just to help the community. I dont think any person with a medical condition should have to wait a months+ for something they use to medicate themselves with. I dont look at people with broken units as bad luck, I just see it as, hey your product broke and you should be able to have it replaced in a reasonable amount of time. Which is not the case here.

How do you know he hasn't touched one? Just because it isn't in his signature doesn't mean he hasn't used one.

And if using one is the pre-requisite to be able to defend it - then allow me. I owned both the Original and an XP; and both of them worked fine for the months I had them. I love the product and know that once Inhalater makes it past these issues they will be one of, if not the best option on the portable market.

Hes calling it the best and doesn't own it (yet), is my point.. He just said his friend had to get a replacement XP also, he didnt have to deal with that head ache.

Everyone keeps singing the same tune, yes it is a great vape. Until it breaks.. I am happy some of you have working units though, my main complaint is the time it takes to get a replacement (yes I am impatient at times) and the customer service.. That's it.

If you were in my shoes you would feel the same way.. my total wait time for replacements is getting close to 3 months. :\

talk about taking my words out of context... I said,

MANY users have already stated that it is simply the best and swear by it entirely.

and that is much different than me saying,

it is simply the best

I never once personally said its the best. So regardless of whether I have used the XP or not, I am qualified to say this.
