Well they are a legit site, they may not be an authorized dealer because i think any country outside of the us or canada can be, although im not 100% positive on that, they do ship out authentic vaporizers

As a guess, they are 'legitimate' in that they are the genuine article made by Arizer. But they are also 'illegitimate' as their parentage can be called into question? Given the wholesale price here is low compared to retail there the possibility of buying from an intermediate seller here and importing them independently exists. Becoming not authorized and supported by Arizer (?) in the process.
The idea, I think, is to 'fair trade' it there on a schedule that covers the increased costs of doing business there. Vendors will take the risk if they are assured of the profit. Every such 'gray market' sale there erodes this leading to higher prices at the authorized sources, or worse still Dealers there opting to not take the risk for the uncertain reward. In a strange way getting the best deal possible (but circumventing the intended distribution structure) damages the very marketplace you hope to grow.
Tough call, cheaper is cheaper and money is very hard earned by many, but for myself I'll reward those playing by the rules with my business (hoping to encourage that) even at some reasonable extra cost. If it's the only source in town that may change things, but if it comes down to supporting legitimate Dealers bringing exciting new products to the market I think that too has value?
One way or the other, get an Air of your own if it all interests you.......this one is too good to miss.
Regards to all.

Vapefiend is an authorised Arizer Retailer as i know.
The first reviev from vapefiend is:
"Got this as an update for my solo. I am so impressed with this. This is the latest model (i know only just out)but this has battery level indicator. First ones didnt. I prefer this to the solo, i didnt think id ever say that!"
I'll check out vaporisateur.net too

Damn, so I remember talking to Arizer 1.5 years ago or so and they told me about a new vaporizer in works, this one looks great and I really dig the replaceable batteries!
I would own a couple of batteries for a rainy day...
As a solo fanatic (well ex unfortunately), I wonder how is the Air compares to the Solo?
In terms of vapor quality ...
@m0sh , the vapor quality of the Air far exceeds the Solo, in my experience.
More vapor, easier draw. About the same wonderful taste.
If you love your Solo, get the Air. It's everything the Solo is plus more and better!
Add "AIR" code to PuffItUp.com for $179 deal, authorized dealer !

I dig the excitement, but more vapor? It's everything the Solo is plus more and better gave me a chuckle too. Portability wise hands down Air wins, the newer Solo's have good air flow so I agree it beats my old Solo in this category, but maybe not the newer models? Easier to attach to glass being smaller, as well as the mouthpiece fitting 14mm decently, is a big plus too! Swappable batteries and charge while using is cool, but really you can do that with the newer model Solo, just more of a pain and bigger price for the battery. The Solo wins in battery performance and has two more heat settings, but I only used 3-7 anyways. My Air is tailored more for my usage then my old Solo. Plus a few new accessories and the fact it will use your old/new Solo glass makes this an easy call for the new and old Solo crowd. It went up $9 or is that a typo?

I want to be mad I dont have a battery indicator but as someone said about the Solo's S/N:
You cannot vaporize battery indicators!

I received my Air from PUI today, great service and a free generic 4 piece grinder. Amazing price, nothing to complain about there.
I ordered an extra stem with the mouthpiece, got the long one as I expected. I'm glad I did though, only got 1 short one and the short all glass stem with the set.
I ran it a couple red heat cycles empty, as directed. Then let it cool for a couple minutes.
This was my first experience loading a glass stem, I'm used to loading an elbow screen for EQ so similar size. I found the EQ's stir tool-back end to be the perfect size to lightly tamp a small load into the stem.
I set it to green and slid the stem in, perfect fit. Feels secure but not difficult to insert. I didn't try to put the stem in cold, seemed pointless from the comments here and YouTube.
First hit was great flavor, second and third the vapor grew. Not EQ size clouds, but damn impressive for this tiny device.
When the timer beeped off the Air had already been sitting for a couple minutes, I was/am nicely medicated.
I pulled the stem and examined the ABV, surprisingly dark. A thorough extraction no doubt. I normally run my EQ ~399F, glass insert removed from TuffBowl and elbow packed through a PNWT. Not a factory setup mind you, but it rips. The Air extracted my herb more thouroghly from the look; and it was tamped down into the stem so it didn't touch the oven.
I am super impressed.
I see no issues using this in public. Have you seen some of the mod box e-cigs out there? This thing is on par with a standard 18650 mod box, more or less in size. The tipped mouthpieces really sell it, if there was some wick or liquid visible no one would even question it.
Even the dorky looking holster seems very usable, I can see some concerts in my future with this straped to my side.
I ordered a Solo GonG from PlanetVapes and a bent Solo stem for around the house.
I will be picking up an extra battery when PIU gets them in, along with some stem caps. Any other "must have" accessories I should pick up?

Sounds like you've pretty much got it covered!
Still loving my Air, I've found it better at extracting some strains than even *gasp!* my E-nano. Some strains seem to work best with that combo of conduction and convection the Air provides.
My dream accessory would be a dugout that holds an Air stem and enough herb for 5-10 bowls, making reloading simply a matter of tamping the stem into the storage area.
If film canisters still existed, that would probably work as a DIY substitute.

Jyarz classic bro. Fits Air stem and stash. Also good for storing cans for my Haze.

@jojo0420 , I just received my black silicone protective skin, from PIU of course......
It looks great much better and thicker than the opaque one that comes with it.....
It makes it easier to hold, protects from scratches, and, I believe, it helps the Air perform better by keeping in the heat ebbing off those chamber vent slots. Keeps ground material out of landing in the vent slots too. So, I think you should pick up one of those in the color you like..... just a suggestion !
Happy Vaping to everyone !

I was considering one of those, thanks for the info. I'll be sure to add that to my list.
Anyone heard when they are getting more batteries in? Last I was told it later this week...

Just checked Arizer's site & they now list the all glass(70 mm long) stem for Air!
C'mon Arizer, where's the other short MP stem?

Dude I have had that thought on multiple occasions. If they could simply connect a glass tube to the four holes and have that meet with the silicone gasket. Then the outside could be used for ejuice or whatever to ninja it! It would also help since you wouldnt have to worry about hash/particle build up vs stealthness.
Probably just fucking with us at this point

OK disagree with me, I can't force you to be right
Here is my new stem holder when on the go. I got the idea from another member but i forgot who. These containers are everywhere at work. They even allow a cap for preloaded stems!
What kind of place do you work at?
What are they used for?
Never seen anything like them.
Is that some sort of carrying pouch?

That's his Ascent with the DaVinci box underneath. If I had to guess I'd say he works at a machine shop or mechanics shop. Possibly drill bits or some sort of car part? Just going off the grease on the pieces, Idk, I was intrigued as well.Is that some sort of carrying pouch?

I loved my solo, it was taken away by the 5.0 17 month ago...
I haven't vaped marry jane in 17 months so there's no real reason to get an Air... but maybe one day
Trial due to end by the 14th of June.

That's the typical protective case for end mill bits. Machine shop stuff, like short drills with flat ends, sharp as can be and a bit brittle. To protect fingers from the tool and the tool from the floor. Machinists collect them since they outlast the tools inside.

I like the dugout idea. I bet Ed could get that done.

Do you know if the stem caps for the solo stems fit the air stems, they should be the same size?
