Supreme Vaporizer Review : The "Portable Power House"
Pre-Purchase Inspection: I was on the fence about purchasing this vaporizer because at the time there wasn't a lot of user feedback on the device and the video's of usage were very limited. I decided to be risky so i pulled the trigger and contacted Ed and he sent me an invoice and i received my vaporizer soon after.
Initial Thoughts(Before Use): Wow, this thing isn't very big. I said this while holding the unit in the palm of my hand.
Contents of my package.
-A small micro butane torch(empty)
-The Whip(Food/medical grade tubing)
-The Supreme Vaporizer(Body Unit)
-The Orange Downstem(Whip Connector and Mouthpiece)
-Hooked Strainless Steel Screens(To restrain vaporizing material in the chamber)
-A very well worded brief manual on usage and maintenance
Preparation and Operation:
-Grind your material until it is to your preference(Coarse/Fine)
-Turn the Supreme Vaporizer(Body Unit) upside-down
-Drop your material inside of the heating chamber(Pack loosely to provide air circulation)
-Place a Stainless Steel Screen over the chamber(Push it down so it stays flushed against the chamber)
-Turn the supreme vaporizer upright
-Place Orange Downstem inside of the Supreme Vaporizer(push it against the stainless steel screens)
-With the unit facing yourself press the small black button on your Left.(Wait for the digital LED Temperature Readout to warm up.)
-Heating Source[Torch]- Place the flame on the unit's aluminum heating element until you reach your desired Temp.
-To double check the Temperature Readout, Press the small black button on your right.(The LED backlight will activate and you will clearly see the temperature of the heating element)
-Once you've reached your desired temperature, turn off the torch or move it away from the flame.
-Place the Supreme either on a water pipe or Place the whip inside the unit Or Inhale directly from the unit itself.
-Heating Source[Stove Top]- Turn on the stove top element you plan on using and wait for it to turn light red.
-Press the small black button on your left to turn on the Digital LED Temp Readout and wait for it to warm up
-Place the heating element directly on to the hot stove element.[DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED]
-Wait for the heating element to reach your desired temperature then take it off the stove element.
-Turn off the stove element if you don't plan on using it again.[Save electricity]
-Now inhale and enjoy the vapor from your supreme.
Waiver-These are the steps i use and the procedure i use with my supreme.
First Impressions(After first successful use): Outstanding! It only took one minute for me to heat the unit to my desired temp(290F) then i proceed to inhale..I was amazed by the sheer volume of the cloud of vapor i exhaled.Chills ran up my spine as i re-heated my unit ready to proceed with Round 2.I was simply blown away at the performance of the Supreme Vaporizer.

Safety and Precautions:
-This vaporizer is not a toy and should be handled with extreme care and caution.
-The heating element can become hot enough to cause first and second degree burns, or start a fire if it lands on something that's flammable or can catch fire when heated.
-Its best to use this vaporizer in a familiar area, with a designated spot to handle the vaporizer and to place it when not in use.
-Make sure you provide the torch/stove top with your undivided attention while using them and make sure you turn them off when you aren't using them.
Applications:
Various ways you can use the device..
-Direct Method-placing the downstem/mouthpiece bewteen your lips and inhaling
-Whip Method-placing the whip inside of the downstem and inhaling so that the vapor has time to cool down before reaching your lungs.
-Water Tool Method-Place downstem in the downstem of a water pipe or bubbler and inhale, doing this will help cool down the vapor as well as adding moisture to your hits.(This is one of the most popular methods seeing as some users feel vapor without the aid of a water tool is dry and somewhat harsh.)
Performance:
I've been using the supreme vaporizer for about a year now and i haven't had any malfunctions or errors that I've heard others user having.So far its been smoothing sailing with operation and preparation of my unit.Every time i heat my unit, its safe to expect large amount of vapor to be extracted once i inhale and exhale.My supreme has had no problems milking up the various water tools I've had in my possession.This vaporizer does a top notch job at obtaining both blue vapor, white vapor.
Aesthetics/Design:
I love wood.I have wooden tables,Wooden speakers, Hardwood floors.I think you get it.
This vaporizer is pretty fun to look at, its like a small wooden computer, with an heatsink on the top.It looks very well polished and the engravings on the wood and aluminum are very superb.Also the milling and welding is pretty on exceptional.
Aluminum heating element, is basically designed like a parking garage. There are multiple layers of aluminum that are encased in a cube gives the unit a 1.5 ft path for air to be heated before reaching the chamber where your material is held.Most vaporizers that have a ceramic heating element only have 2 inches heat/air exchange because of the size of the element and design of the vaporizer.The Supreme's element allows for your air to be uniformly heated as it passes through and creates thick vapor for your consumption.
Digital Temp Readout, lets you control what type of vapor you will consume. You choose what temp you vaporize at. Now the Digital temp readout only indicates the temperature of the heating element and not the actual vapor that you will be consuming, but its very nice because it gives you an idea of the general ball park you will be in. With my unit 270-290F normally give me very light fresh blue vapor with a bounty of flavor and taste, whereas 300-330F gives me thick white vapor which is very heavy and aromatic. If you continue to venture with the temperature around 365 and Up you will find yourself enjoying a very dense/creamy vapor and smoke hybrid some people might find this undesirable and i agree its more of an acquired taste but its defiantly nice to have the option available.
Learning Curve:
The Learning Curve is almost non existent.
Only thing you will need to play with is the temperatures you use and that can be very entertaining once you've documented your favorite degrees.
Overall Experience:
This is a great device for someone who is already has experience using vaporizers, i would never suggest this unit to someone who is a beginner. Seeing as it takes a lot of responsibility and concentration to have a successful experience without any consequences.Supreme vaporizer offers huge amounts of vaporizer off small amounts of material due to the design of the heating element and the vapor path which makes this great for someone craving large lungfuls of vapor but not at the loss of efficiency.The supreme vaporizer is also an amazing investment for someone who has a large glass water pipe collection.Now this vaporizer is great for 1-3 people, but larger "Party" situations is this vaporizers weakness along with having a very hot heating element exposed.All in all i am glad i made the investment and purchased a supreme vaporizer.The anniversary of my purchase is coming up soon and i know exactly how to celebrate, and hopefully by that time Ed(the inventor & seller) will have created his electrical supreme unit.
