Phase3 Vaporizers

What's the difference between the z8 and zx?

The product description goes into it

 

[DaVapeGuy]

These are the differences that I gathered from the description:

"The main body diameter has been increased slightly from the initial Z8 run to provide easier installation and superior "grab.""

"With the ZX, there are now two screen grooves, as the slotted intake and bezel have been removed to provide a more economical and easier to produce heat filter. This also provides a slightly more open airflow"

Interested to see how current z8 owners compare the two... Maybe @invertedisdead can give a brief comparison?

As far as I can tell, it's the SX but in Zirconia:

The main body diameter has been increased slightly from the initial Z8 run to provide easier installation and superior "grab."
...
The gem beads are locked into the ZX using the same medical grade stainless steel screen + groove mechanism as our flagship Z8. With the ZX, there are now two screen grooves, as the slotted intake and bezel have been removed to provide a more economical and easier to produce heat filter. This also provides a slightly more open airflow, which pairs especially well with larger cooling setups and recyclers.
...
ZX is manufactured in Taiwan.

I bought one as I like 14mm heads and this seems nice.

Loving the update, I’m in for a ZX. It’s a great excuse to order a backup bowl for my SX, so I can’t say no.

In for a ZX! Stoked I was able to get in this round.

SX:
On the SX it looks like there’s room for more rubies if you lowered the screen closer to the taper of the injector nozzle. This would require stretching the coil but would certainly beef up the available heat calories for both the SX and ZX.

This is surprising to me. I wonder if it is just the difference in coils but 525F produces good vapor with a nice flavor, 550F is one-hit extraction, 565F is nearly black duff. 580F would absolutely combust for me. (Auber RDK 300B with 710coils coil)

I’m still testing, but I’ve reduced my load size and now getting golden/ tobacco color ABV in one hit at 565F. I wish we had a standard rating for ABV so we could better frame our temperature conversations around the results etc.

Loving the agile response here!

Jumping into the ZX preorder. It’ll be my first coil powered ball vape.

What coil is the best to get, easiest ro fit on the sx? Just ordered a zx too!

 

[madhockeydad]

I find the Disorderly Conduction is best. Seems like the Auber is closer to 15.8 mm and takes more fidgeting while the DC coil is a simple twist or slight open and done. I like the DC coils a lot.

I’ve never owned 710 but have heard very good things.

Nice, not sure why their pic shows 4 wraps but vgoodiez shows 5.

Maybe an old stock pic

 

[Abele Rizieri Ferrari]

Ordered one as well

 

[Feelingmedicated]

The zx is super tempting and I haven’t even got my sx yet haha. I think I’ve got enough self control to wait for the next run of z8s though. Ive only been vaping for a bit over a year and the VAS is so real not to mention all the glass I’ve been buying.

 

[Abele Rizieri Ferrari]

Only 1 left of the original 20? 25? pre order slots

Je n'ai mon SX que depuis quelques jours mais cette bobine fonctionne à merveille :

I wanted to take this coil for my SX but unfortunately no 220v version

Sur le SX, il semble qu'il y ait de la place pour plus de rubis si vous abaissez l'écran plus près du cône de la buse de l'injecteur. Cela nécessiterait d'étirer la bobine, mais augmenterait certainement les calories de chaleur disponibles pour le SX et le ZX.

What tool did you use to lower the screen?
Is there any risk of damaging the screen?
I'm not saying no for more rubies in my SX

The ZX preorder sold out in less than 24-hours. Rock on. What a great community. This is so fun. I'm going to hit the SX and then I'm setting up the Z8 side by side for the weekend. Pics and vids to come later. May this be a happy and green!!! weekend to everyone.

Well, I hope it works because I bought one lol

Fencesitters and the tardy- be not discouraged! I just ordered one so it does not seem sold out?

 

[Oden]

ZX and like the SX but in Zirc.
I'm not going to buy it (even though I'm extremely tempted lolol).
The SX will help me wait until the next Z8, or even better until the ZPRO hahaha

You might be waiting a while

Well the ZPRO is still conceptual for now, so I can't really say it's coming soon. I mean it is kinda possible, but the Z8 is definitely still the flagship Phase3 product until further notice

Hey, I did not lower my screen, I was mentioning that @invertedisdead could adjust his design to accommodate more rubies. Pretty sure there’s a groove the screen sits in that would have to be moved when it’s machined.

Could also be a purposeful design choice!

Aren’t we talking about the screen in the bowl not the injector?

The heater:

In my post you replied to I was referring to the only place in the heater to contain rubies, the two internal screens of the heater.

The bowl:

If you want to adjust your screen in your bowl/ herb chamber use a male 14mm joint as mentioned. Haven’t had any troubles moving my screen about now that I learned that trick!
