We apologize that it has taken so long to respond to you all. We have read your concerns and appreciate your feedback, and thought we would take a moment to address your comments.
We realize the LSV is not cheap, but there are many reasons for this. For one, it is hand made(for example, all 56 holes at the top are drilled by hand) which takes an enormous amount of time, and also extreme precision to drill all the holes perfectly on a round tube. The construction quality is exactly like our other vaporizers... ROCK SOLID. As with our other vaporizers, the ceramic heater is the finest available. Yes, you could take apart a Hakko iron, and what do you find? The finest heating element in the world. They use it for the same reason we do. If you feel that a Hakko Soldering Iron is your best option, then the Life Saber is probably not for you. (We highly discourage anyone modding/hacking their soldering iron for herbal consumption, btw, for reasons we hope are extremely obvious) There are cheaper Vapes out there, but the quality is not in our league. They use plastics, glues, and mix the air you breath with their electronics. We care about your health. We use our products...we only want the best, and want only the same for you.
The LSV can also do what other vaporizers can't. It works three ways:
-Normal use with the glass Transfer Wand
-With a glass adapter it can be used directly with your water pipe
-It can also be used with just the heating element, yes, similar to the the Phedor. (which alone runs $150 and isn't nearly as well made. There are others, but its pretty clear from first glance they are re-purposing another product. Slap a sticker on it, call it a day!)
The LSV is also super portable for traveling. Tailgating, Camping, RV's; as long as you have power, you are good to go. Soon, as with all our products, you will be able to get customization with the vape and the glass. The Hempster fully padded case is also a really huge value. You asked for options, and we feel that we have delivered with excellent function and also killer style. In a nut shell, every element of the LSV, from the aluminum to the heater to the glass to the bag is the highest possible quality. Our customers expect no less.
Simply put, there is no vape on the market that does what the LSV does.
As always, compared to normal combustion...the savings you incur by using a vape will pay for it over time. How much time? Thats up to you!
With the LSV, we at 7th Floor still offer a 3 year warranty, quick and loyal customer service, with a strong connection to our customers. We will be far more active on this forum because your feedback is what is most important to us. We offer our loyalty program, so if you refer 6 people, you get a free vaporizer! We give away our vapes almost monthly on Facebook, so join us and you might get lucky!
We are very upfront about where are products are made. The SSV is produced in Colorado, from foreign and domestic parts. The DBV and LSV are partially assembled in China. (We are extremely connected with the factory there and we do pay more than the average wage. We take pride that we are enabling opportunity for people on a global basis) The DBV and LSV go through final assembly, testing, and quality assurance in Colorado. We are a Colorado company, and at the end of the day, we are the ones that stand behind the product.
We welcome your feedback, but firmly believe that once you hold an LSV in your hand, it becomes immediately clear what we stand for as a company - superior quality.
