you can remove the o-ring closest to the bowl on the old 4 groove ti tip. makes the tip easier to remove and insert and looks much better

The benefits is a nice looking junction. The o-ring is out of place in the metallic look of the vapCaps.
Although Viton is a thermal break, I suspect the tiny air gap works about as well. I find all metal stems get too hot, too fast, so that this small contributor is insignificant. The beauty about the Revolve is that the heat stops after the stem's cooling fins where the metal thins. This feature alone makes the difference between conventional metal stems and the Revolve. I consider this a 'thermal throttle".
Technically, none of the tip contacts the stem. All the heat is transferred through the Viton o-rings and vape. Minimizing conductive paths is the best way to manage heat. 2 o-rings and a small common annular contact is about as little contact area one can do.
Now unlined wooden stems, no issue. It doesn't scorch or get hot without this last o-ring. Definitely more stable.

How Soon Is Now?
Hey guys..just made a preorder even If I was waiting the launch to see if something new was dropped..but I didn't kept the hype to have one asap..can't wait for that.
Read some post ago by @Brenyo that probably first batch of revolve titanium will be raw titanium, then they'll start with a more polished one.
It's the case that I could get superhappy to have a raw one..you think that will be just random or someone know what is intended for "1st batch"? Only pre-ordered ones?
Could also be cool see an image of a raw titanium and polished one compared
Crossing finger in the meanwhile!

We wanted to do a slightly brushed texture at first, but after seeing the more polished version that was going for the PVD application we decided against it. The polished just looked better
It will be easier to anodise as well this way, the colours would have been very dull with the brushed surface.

so the reload is brushed and the revolve will be polished?

Is there a way to opt for a brushed finish? I have a slight preference for matte but am cool with polished Ti, so no big deal either way.
Yes, but it's not a mirror polish. Actually it will look a bit more similar to the silver Reload than before because of the extra shine.
Not at this time, only the black is matte now.
I'm sorry about the confusion, it was a last minute change but I'm fairly sure most of you will like it 
In reality it's not so different, just looks a bit better.
Have you guys a sort of burndown plan to ship out all pre-orders more or less? If it's sharable, obviously.
Won't put pressure, but really guys, I was waiting a dyna stem like this since years!
thanks
Finally! Shipping time to NA I would assume is going to be minimum 2 weeks?

We hope to ship out most of the pre-orders by Tuesday.
We won’t have the silver Reloads this week, they’ll arrive later next week so those orders will have to wait a little longer. (or we can swap the color)
It says ~1 week on the Royal Mail website normally, but close to 2 weeks is more likely now I think.
I actually asked for a silver reload but at this point I just want both awesome devices, how do I go about switching out the colors?
Just please send a PM here or an email to support@madheaters.co.uk . Thanks!
