Discontinued Supreme Vaporizer

[hoyo77]

Good morning, I am not sure I know anything about this unit but will sure give it a look and see what I may or may not be able to do, surely with some research and thinking I'll be able to do something. Let me get back to you Hoyo77 and we will go from there. Thanks for thinking of me and my work bro, you know I will do my best to do what I do and get you right my man! Hope all is well, be in touch soon!

Thanks Ed...i am sure some of the guys here can chip in and give you some info...i will ping a guy now. @Vitolo i need your assistance. Ed'sTnt is going to make me a stem and we need to know about the connections on the Supreme3

Ed responded back to my request for a V3, he has been super busy. I would expect to hear from him soon those of you who have contacted him.

When did you make your request? I emailed him almost a week ago.

As I see it, you'd need a mouthpiece with a 14mm female connector on one end. Maybe some kind of clip mechanism to secure it, not sure if the rubber itself would support a longer mouthpiece by itself.
Picture for reference:

what about the rubber rings on the end..would that not secure the stem to the unit??

@little maggie I e-mailed Ed 2 times over the past 3 days and he responded to me this morning. He extended an apology since things are super busy. I would shoot him another e-mail, it can't hurt the process.

I don't know, I guess a shorter one shouldn't be an issue, a longer one might be. All speculation.

Update!

I sent Ed an e mail yesterday and he replied today.
He says he does his best to ship 5 days after receiving the order and he has received a lot of international orders. A lot of paperwork is required for shipping and he works out the fastest and safest way to ship out units to those of us outside the US.

I was told mine would ship early tomorrow.

I don't quite understand one thing though...
Ed said shipping to Canada through USPS would take over a month to get to me so he insisting UPS...
All orders I get from the States usually come through USPS and arrive quite quickly with minimal duties.
I know I am going to be hit with high duties now that it is being shipped via a courier.
FedEx and UPS are expensive with their charges in Canada.

Hopefully this does not turn a $150 shipped vaporizer into a $200 deal for me...

I love my Daisy but sometimes I feel like I want even more...so I went ahead and succumbed to the peer pressure of vapor porn and sent Ed an email! I don't want to replace my Daisy, and I bet the Supreme V3 can easily be mated to the Daisy so perhaps she won't even get much rest, but I am excited to try another portable vaporizer with all the punches I hopefully can't handle!

I dont have the daisy i have the lily...i think you will relatively surprised with your purchase and you will find that both will have a very special place in your vape rotation. I dont have supreme3 yet but if it is anything like supreme1 and 2 you will be very pleasantly surprised.

Man have I missed the 'bong' experience. I have a grip of vapes I often use with water but the Supreme 3 just became my best bong vape. So similar to the old combustion days without the filth. Plus this vape's 'signature' is getting me pretty lit. If you happen to be an old school bong toker then the Supreme is a definite must in any vaporist's collection. I need to get more bowls.

you should try it on that J-hook you have for your lotus

 

[little maggie]

I heard from Ed and he thought he'd sent me the invoice. He mixed me up with someone else who requested an invoice. So I think he will send an invoice to my actual email

I'm just gonna say it. I don't like the handle.

This thing seems to me like it's just begging to have a nice wooden handle to hold on to. I'm thinking like a small pistol grip made of wood. The aluminum just feels..... awkward. Having the edges press into your hand/fingers leaves me wishing for a better grip. It's not that it's painful to hold, or even uncomfortable per se. It just seems like a proper wooden handle would make manipulating it a much more "natural" experience.

I have zero complaints about the performance, though. It took me way too long to write this post, so I guess that speaks to the effectiveness of the delivery system. The smoothness of the vapor is a refreshing bonus as well.

same thing happened to me..he has been very busy!!

Thanks for your report.

Is it possible to use cover on heat exchanger, avoiding let it cool down, in order to fill bowl or strow Supreme immediatly after sesh ?

May you compare V3 airflow resistance to V2 ?

 

[hoyo77]

Anyone out there in Vapeland got their Supreme 3s yet? Very curious about what others think?

I find it takes a few minutes of heating with the torch to get the Supreme up to vape temp so you can't use her if you are in a rush. Supreme is a sit down and take your time in the session vape. I also think a person needs about three bowls. With only one bowl you are emptying and filling a couple times and things are hot. I look at the Supreme bowls pretty much the same way as the Arizer Air stems. I just want to slap a fresh one in and keep rolling. When you are finished with your sesh you need to let it cool down before you can stow it. Not a big deal for me because this is going to be a dedicated bong vape. Using the Supreme feels very ritualistic, more so than most vapes because the torch and heat demand you are careful. I feel very relaxed after a Supreme sesh and the 'slowdown factor' is a nice plus in this frenetic world. I do feel more baked when using the Supreme 3 and it has been the first vape I have been grabbing everyday since I got it. I do this all of the time with new vape purchases so only time will tell if it can remain on its current perch.

I feel awkward discussing price, however I must, price for me is a central issue on about everything. I'm a generics type of guy. When it comes to vapes I automatically monetize every beneficial features of a vape when evaluating price especially. I do not feel it is just because I am poor it is a value thing. So when considering the Supreme 3 in my mind it is a 'specialty vape' and this is because the are certain compatibility factors that affect situations. I feel safe using a Supreme 3 in my home because, though relaxing, it is quite the production and people would never understand it in a public park. I know that sounds silly for even saying but some vapes are designed to work in public parks. Things come into play like, power type, size/stealth, and other things determine a vapes category and price in my mind. Anyway that is how I buy vapes and how I tabulate a price. It is all from a very selfish perspective solely considering what a vape will do for me. As a user things like manufacturing cost are very secondary when considering a vape. If I can't afford it I really do not look very close.



So when I share a claim of value like the Supreme being worth $140 to me would be off if it is exactly what you have been looking for. The Supreme 3 vapor production is phenomenal and this makes a bong very familiar to use. $240 is a lot of cheddar, but then again you will likely never come across a vape like the the Supreme 3 out there in vapeland, there is nothing like it to be sure.

Value and cost are very subjective things and should be looked at as such.

I have been a long time customer of Ed..even talked to him on the phone a few times. I own supremes 1 and 2. I was a little sticker shocked when i saw the price and was happy when he offered the deal to us on FC..but to be honest i would have purchased it and rolled with it anyway because Ed puts a lot of work into this thing and as you can see you can get some CLOUDS from it...it is very good for low temp vaping. his temp gauge is pretty accurate. I think he went minimalist on this one and i am kinda liking it. It a portable but not a walk in the park portable or at concert type of thing...Hopefully mine will be in next week and i will give my review. I don't have any glass so i may make a tube or adapt one of my Hi stems to use with it.

I had @Buildozer over last night for some SV3 testing. First time he was using it he mentioned how cool it is that the unit can heat up hands free since the height of the block is the same as the flame on my Bernzomatic.

I just nodded my head (like I do this all the time) but in my mind I was like "why didn't you figure that out already!"

Here's a video of how some of the testing went.

As a bonus, here's a couple IR videos showing heating and hitting.

 

[nosmoking]

@Stu About how long does it take to heat up with the torch you have? I have the same one and was curious what kinda heat up time we are talking about

I've been timing it lately and it seems to be right around 1:20 to hit 175°C. YMMV.

I for one wished that Ed took a bit more time for his customers that have been paid up and waiting to receive their Supreme 3...
So far it has been TWO weeks since he received my money and i still do not have any tracking or anything.
I e mailed Ed last week to nicely ask if he had time to ship my unit out yet.
The response was quite fast and i was told it would be shipped out early the next day, this would have meant it got shipped last Wednesday morning. I would have thought Ed would have e mailed me a tracking number or just replied that he has sent it out.
So far nothing...
I e mailed Ed again yesterday morning, again very nicely asking to let me know if it had actually been shipped or not, either way just let me know what is going on.

I get the feeling he does not like shipping outside of the States...
This from a lengthy reply from Ed outlining all the difficult work he has to do with paperwork etc just to ship it to me.
Now i have shipped vapes to the States and further over the pond with EXTREME EASE!
Go to post office and pay the money and away it goes, at least in Canada that is how it works.
The paperwork gets filled out at the post office and it takes 5 minutes.

My Herbalizer, EVO and MiniVap came from the States without any hassle at all.
Herbalizer and EVO shipped with FEDEX and i ended up paying around $50 to get it released...
MiniVap came through USPS and i paid about $20

Ed said he was sending mine out UPS, so i figure another $50 at least...

I really do hope he gets it out to me soon because i would really love to own one of his vapes.

 

[IAmKrazy2]

Shit. I emailed Ed right before the cut off. Bonus is i can probably give away v1 and v2 to some in need patients after i get mine.

 

[lazylathe]

Heard back from Ed late last night!
He forgot to send me the tracking number as he said he was still extremely busy.
Sent it UPS on January 26th and being delivered tomorrow.
Not bad service!
Check the tracking and it says to call about taxes and duties.
Add an extra $70 to the price...

Oh well at least it will be mine tomorrow and serious testing can begin!
I have the same torch as @steama has, so we should be good to go!
And lots of "Tane!

 

[Vitolo]

The Supreme 3 is a monster fog machine.
I love it more than I can say.
Sadly My camera has gone missing and I can not get any video footage right now.
Those who have seen my previous Supreme 2 videos know how I loved it....
The Supreme 3 surpasses that.
I will do my best to get footage of this beast in action, as our life complications (you guys know we have had some issues here) settle down for us.

 

[lazylathe]

The Supreme 3 has landed!!

First i need to vent again...LOL!
$150 shipped UPS = $211 CAD and then it gets shipped UPS so add another $69 CAD and we get $280 to my door!!! WTF!!! $40 brokerage fee... USPS and Canada post don't charge this much!

So i open the small package and find a printed sheet, the Supreme 3 and some parts in cling wrap.
This is pretty much a figure it out yourself vape as the instructions did not really explain it very well.
Thank goodness for FC and youtube!
So after a few minutes of playing jenga, i got it figured out!
Loaded up some Haze and inserted tube into heater.
Fire up the Blazer and heat till 150C, it went up about 8 degrees after that and help at156.9 for a whole hit!
Flavor is amazing and so pure! It's way up there in the flavor department!!
Oh and then there is that freight train that comes out of nowhere!!
It kind of makes my other vapes redundant at this stage of my medicated state!

As far as aesthetics goes... It looks like a turbo charged grill thermometer!
Definitely does not resemble any vape you have ever seen before!
But it will be the Supreme i reach for when showing friends, so super easy to use!
I think an analog dial would makes this vape one step above!
I like the hinged part but think it should have been laser cut as an S for Supreme
Retro-fitting to an exotic wooden handle would be super cool!
As it is it is perfect, i like to tinker and think about possibilities!

As you can see from my ramble, The Supreme 3 is a highly effective vaporizer!
Everyone should own one!
You may have to jump through hoops and wait patiently for replies, but it is worth it!

At 160C on the dial this thing kills all my other vapes!!
Holy clouds on clouds!!

I am stepping away from the computer now...

 

[Vitolo]

A number of aspects I love about the Supreme 3 that makes it preferable to the other Supremes...

1. I love the wood, but the metal is actually easier to hold.
2. It holds the heat for longer.
3. It can stand there next to torch (I have 2 small torches... one on each side aiming at the "block").
4. The Supreme 2 needed to be set down, or laid down after use, and you needed to let it cool down before putting it away.
5. The Supreme 3 can be put in cabinet or shelf, standing up... (This is a biggy!)
6. I can get a healthy hit without carefully keeping pinky and ring finger suspended for safety.
7. The thermostat is easier to access.

Ed.... you done good!

 

[nosmoking]

So I received an email from Ed this morning letting me know that my Supreme V3 will be shipping tomorrow and should be to me within 2-3 days. I just got two new cans of Colibri fuel last night and my glass bong is clean so I will be ready!
