I understand, I got exactly the same issue when I switched from the Herborizer 14mm bowl to the 18mm which doesn't restrict at all and lead to a less dark abv using the same settings.

For now I only get the cyclone bowl or another glass bowl which is pretty similar in regard to the distance from the heater but narrower.

Try to find something to get my 20mm coil to fit the Elev8er cause i don't want to torn my only one 16mm coil, but i'm afraid it will need a very high temp to work... I don't find the Elev89 to be economical in regard to the energy used to get a good heat/hit.

Tried it on my stove for heating but didn't got better clouds although my flowers are very moist and impossible to grind, I use scissors (I forgotten to close the jars while it was a rainy day and all is moist now!).

Any links for a third part bowl please?

thanks for all the reply, i will not give up but i can say it will not fit my usage habits...
My coil temps ate typically 670-745, depending on bowl choice, load size, strain, point in the load (always temp stepping to extract fully, as vapor drops off each time).

With the smaller bowl @LabPong is recommending above, 670 will give great tasting full milky hits.
The stock bowl I usually start at about 700. But I really dont see how you are going to get a 20 mm coil to be a good fit. 16 mm is almost right, just needs to be a little looser but not much. The tighter and neater it fits and contacts the glass, and more evenly too, the bettet it will hit.

My coil is now hitting much better since I switched to a nubless heater. The coil now rests on the sick clip, it is lower down where the glass heater is wider at the bottom. Hence better contact and it hits a lot better now.
I know @Buds of War is using a coil with the cyclone bowl. I think his preferred temp was just below 700? 680 maybe?

Anyway @PPN good luck rigging something more effective and enjoyable up. For sure there are easier daily drivers. The Elev8r with coil is really for the committed vaporist indeed!;)

Yes I just loosened slightly the 16mm coil to get it to fit, powered on my enail, t° at 680... Nothing, stepped up at 700 Nothing...and the same result with 730( I could see some very whisp vapor in the bubbler but not for exhale)...Is it possible my heater is not perfectly round, slightly oval cause it doesn't fit perfectly any of the many 18mm joints I have and creating a leak which dilutes vaporizer's performances?
Is it a known issue?

the diy vaporizer (I call it Volute) I use is pretty similar to the Elev8er+16mm coil but I got pretty better performances with the ceramic heater of the Volute which extract everything at 520 in hybrid mode and using 660-680 in full convection mode.

I just hope I didn't killed my coil, I powered off my controller to switch the heaters to check my coil is still performing like usual with the volute ceramic heater (just afraid it will not fit anymore since I loosened the 16mm coil.... testing, testing)

I wish I had some clear advice for you. Gettinf his modded coil to work well is not always a simple route to market I have found. It took me a good few weeks of tweaking and sp8ns of fortune and fate to get it working so well consistently.

But I would expect you to get some vapor for sure at those temps.
If the coil is still reaching the set temp then it must still be intact and functional?

Mine is not right clearly after I over stretched it a while back. Ever since it reads about 70° lower on the coil than the set temp. But otherwise seems to work perfectly with the controller to operate at and maintain the coil temp accurately, as if it is the set temp. So 770 gives me about 700 and so on.

Maybe you still need a higher temp? Not all coil setuos wilp be equal. Try going up a bit more to say 750. People are using their Flowerpots at 777 all day long so I dont see why these temps should be a problem for a coil?

So see if that helps, but if you have a genuine seal issue with the heater that could well be the issue and needs to be fixed.
Who did you buy it from? Jahvaporizer! If so, send them a photo and ask what they think. They would probably send you another one. Or you could send it to 7h Floor and ask for advice?

Tell them to send Jah an extra free heater with their next order and you will get Jah to send you a replacement. And remember quartz is coming in the next 2 months.

Good luck bro do keep us posted on the outcome please, your vaporizsr satisfaction is important to us.:tup:

if it helps i have an initial heat up time on 700F for 5 mins before i start to take any pulls, the 1st pulls are softer just to pull some heat thro the herb. I turn the heat down 5F wait 1 min then take another pull, down another 5F wait 30 secs then pull again repeat twice more until my temp is 680F. It sounds laborious is that even a word and have i even used it in the right context hahaha i dunno im pretty stoned, anyway the time and the patience is all worth it, that initial heat up is so important, i go and make a brew and shout at kids while my shit heats lmao.....oh im not using a SS screen in the elev8r itself, i find when I do i can use temps around 20F lower but i'm very sensitive to taste so i prefer not too.

Well my original heater finally fell apart after lasting several weeks with a huge crack.
So I went and fished out my free prize Elev8r heater which also has a nub

And guess what? No airhole!?:doh:


So I am now using a nubless spare which I bought to include with my prize Elev8r in a planned vape trade.
So the coil now sits on the sick clip, which gets pretty hot now. But I have to say, it did seem like performance was substantially improved without the nub. Surely due to the coil sitting differently now and making better contact.

But then something bizarre happened. I was hitting my late bedtime loads this am when suddenly I could smell the coil smell really strongly, the odor that I can pick up at times when the coil first heats up.
I couldnt tell why it was happening, except on the heat up on the heater last night, it was making a clicking sort of sound every few seconds for a while.

Anyway, this morning I noriced the heater was covered in black stuff from the coil:


I ISO soaked it but only some of it came off. (Photo is after ISO soak) @Abysmal Vapor I thought this might intrest you in light of your concern over coil materials and safety. My coil temp was as high as 745, which it has been already numerous times with no issue.
I got one with no airhole as well. They had to send a new one out.

Yes I recall. And Im sure they would if not for such a massive ocean. A beutiful, but at times problematic thing!:D

The Elev8r has been amazing me all over again the past few days. After testing the Cloud Evo which is excellent and gives such a lovely effect...I was astonished how much better the Elev8r tasted after the Evo trial and a few days of no Elev8r.

I realise I had been taking it for granted- the taste, AND effects. Both match or beat any device I have sufficient experience with. Taste beats them all so far by miles. Even the Evo, which didnt blow me away at all flavour wise coming from daily Elev8r use.

Im not dissing the Evo, I really like it. It has helped me realise though just how great the Elev8r is. I have my coil rig dialles in so well its dangerous.
I didnt realise just how good this setup is- SO hard hitting, and taste through the roof. Heater and bowls ISO soaked today and WOW first hits!:drool:

I keep overhitting the coil. 3rd hit of bowl usually, same easy draw and its like 5 hits packed into 1 before you know it! Whoops.

It is very hard hitting. How did I become so accustomed to this to lose sight of the wood in the trees?
I dont get any temp drops during hits though barely. So this is important I believe. Big temp drops have been reported along with unsatisfaction overall with performance.

So I just needed to share this important knowkedge I have gleaned ;), and give the Elev8r some fresh Love!:rockon:

Thanks!

Didn't got the time to play again with my Elev8r heater but Something I noticed on your pic is you stretched it to fit all the heater length and I just loosened mine a bit but without stretching it so it sits on the bottom just on the top os the short gong and airflow holes are up of the coil... maybe this is the reason of my fails...

In another hand the ovale heater is a very thin difference you can't see without to put it on a female glass joint and even here you only get a sort of inegal fit feeling and heater can move in 2 opposites directrions... slightly maybe not a real concern for performances since even this air leak is very thin... next testings will tell it!

They put something up on instagram very recently showing the "All glass Elev8r" with glass screen. It looks like the quartz shape and design heater we saw a clip of before, but no mention of quartz.
But they said it is available I think and to see the website.

I did check but no cigar yet. In an email last month, Jason ssid it will be June or July fir quartz, but is still coming on.

Yeah hold tight man, i wont expect anything until July myself but we'll see. Must be a new bowl design with the glass screen. Im hoping the quartz heaters have the same dimensions for my coil to fit.
Im curious to see how the vape will perform with quartz and how much we will notice a difference. Also I bet with glass screen now, the Elev8r will be able to give the Switch a run for the best tasting flower vape- I know where my money is!;)

I dont know how to post the link direct to the post but it is the 16th photo from the top. I read it wrong, no suggestion it is ready yet but they say to check the site.

That very deep bowl looks like it was designed to be used with concentrate pads. Otherwise...it looks like a load of flower would sit far from the heater compared to the normal Elev8r bowl or wand?


PS.......we need quartz......quartz....quartz.....please get here YESTERDAY.....energy reserves are depleting quickly......brain cells are stressing.......hands are shaking...... Hope my cracked heater makes it through the point of quartz release! :uhoh:

yean me too man. I bought a spare heater from Jahvaporizer because I always intended to sell my spare Elev8r and wanted to keep the nubbed one on ths spare. No hole though, so my (spare) spare (pr something, it's all gotten unnecessarily complicated) heater is now in use as my ONLY functional heater in-house.

And it has already taken bruises from the coil I reckon. A few small crackz. Nothing like the big gorge on my previous one which still lasted weeks. But for sure, if it breaks now Im just gonna wait for the Q and hope Sebastien comes through with the Digi Herbo before too much longer now. :nod:

LOL who said the Switch was the best tasting flower vape let alone tasting good? :lol:

If you like the taste of offgas yea it's awesome LOL.

Hyped for the glass bowl and quartz heater. We will finally be able to play with cool down times. :tup:

Looks like they intend to blow the glass with an irremovable screen...but I'm willing to be that I'm wrong. :clap:

That link works for me the one I posted I know it looks a bit unusual but if you just click the White top link in the text it takes me straight there but it sounds like you have found it now anyway.
And yes that is what it looks like to me like the screen will be fixed in the Bowl but we'll see.
