Not a Vapman “beta tester”
I've been using HG2s and been happy with them, though I also used VTC5as when I first got my Mi2. I believe that RBT recommends HG2s for the Milaanas.

30Q are absolutely fine, they are just like HG2, same mAh and same amps (30Q are underrated at 15A and are actually 18A, HG2 are overrated at 20A and are actually also 18A, both are fine to use in Milaana!

I'm not concerned, I was just expressing my excitement and in the hopes my unit has a 3 in the product number.
So you can chill, if anything I'm jealous of the early arrivals and I can't wait to share my own experience. No need to be a "Knight" when one isn't needed.

I will see my number today, Milaana will be here.
USPS from North Dakota to NY suburb, door to door in < 2 days, not too shabby!
A few weeks ago (before Mi3 landed in US) I emailed Cole, asking him if possibly they could not send quite so many stems since I have more than I need already. I made it worse by then specifying which two of their stems I might actually like to have. I'm assuming that he'll send about 5 anyway! but I'm curious...

last night I was looking at wooden stems to buy for my 3. Then I remembered that I have the RBT wobbly stem. When I put it in the hole it felt like it bottomed out and rested on the screen. I gathered up my 2, splinter and z and it fit them the way it was meant to be, with a slight wobble. So now I'm wondering if some of you with custom wooden stems can check the fit in a 3 and let me know how they fit in yours. I was looking at shorty stems that vgoodiez sells. Thanks

Got mine in the UK - really pleased with it. First Milaana for me - I can see why people refer to it as the electric sticky brick - it is just that! Here's a few pics:

@Jack Thursby very nice, what number did you end up with?
It looks like my Mi3 should show up next Monday or Tuesday

#63 checking in.
It's my first Milaana, I've had a Splinter v1+ for a while.
Surprised/not surprised there are no instructions! Even the Splinter came with a humble slip of paper with some words on it.
I'm about 6 bowls in and my jury is still out. I was really looking fwd to full on-demand vaping, but I've clearly got some dialing-in to do with technique.
If I'm not real close to charring, then there's no real cloudage -- even though effects are there and abv is spent. I'm feeling a lot of heat in throat, more than with the Splinter.
I'm also getting really stoned in the trying, btw!
edit;
I do have to say, it is quite beautifully made.

I don't have mine yet , but from what I am hearing it sounds like sliding the herb further up the stem and further away from the heater may be helpful. Or possibly shove a screen further up the stem and keep the basket screen lower to hold in the load and act as a bit of a heat sink. Will also give it a bit of conduction to help even out the heat? I'm just spitballin'

^ could be worth a shot. thanks.
I've yet to be successful installing any other than rimmed screens with the splinter stems (same a Mi3 stems) so maybe I gotta fool around with that and get some more distance from the heater.
I did bowl #7 with some upgraded material and my satisfaction level with Milaana was also upgraded a notch.

Yeah sounds like the Mi3 is the most Milaana yet, which means to regulate by feathering trigger. So spend less time in the trigger folks, give it a preheat, then start to draw and let go, give it a couple seconds while still drawing and press the button again for a few more, repeat as necessary. Keep at it, maybe try using only the Milaana3 and no other vapes so you can get a feel for it, with a consistent medium fine grind.
I don't have my milaana 3 yet but I agree 100% with shit snacks. Every Vape has its own personality. I have a few very nice vapes, and if I switch to a different vape each day my experience will suck, no vapor, charred bowls etc. If I keep using one vape for a good time period I become a pro with it, lots of clouds, great flavor, nice avb. Don't switch up so much, no 2 vapes are alike. By the way the pics look awesome, I'm loving the bottom brass plate, it looks incredible!

Just got mine in. I had no idea when it was coming, but it definitely was a nice surprise. Just tried it out. Definitely very nice. Finished in 4 draws and the first three got very nice clouds. I might have overpacked it, but oh well. I will post pictures later.
I have to admit from the pics I'm seeing here the Milaana3 has to be the prettiest vape out on the market right now, all that shiny golden brass and that super nice wood grain it just looks awesome . Only the sticky bricks has just as nice a look with wood. So excited and glad I ordered one. I wish the firing button was brass too, that would have been super klutch!
That booty shot on 052 is freaking nice!

The Mi3 is pretty damn sharp though, same with the 2's. It's too bad RBT didn't go a different direction as I feel like some of the custom units that have come out over the years have been incredibly beautiful and there is a demand for them. I still lust over the spalted maple version. I'm just glad to have some of their products in my lineup as this time last year I never thought I'd get the chance.

Yeah man, don't be shy!
I'm telling those butt shots are awesome! Rbt was smart putting a brass plate on the bottom, makes smaller and better looking
