Well, what I have seen from them so far, their customer service is top notch. And yes, Vapor tactician, that's why I ordered from them. I thought it would be easier if I ordered it from someone in the states. But don't let the $270.00 price fool you.....Shipping was $20.00. But in the end it saved me $10.00 so I can't complain.vapor tactician said:Bemuse said:
From what I've heard, Greatvape seems to take pretty good care of customers. I'd rather go with Arizer since I'm in Canada anyway. GV Might be easier for the yanks (no customs) if the customer service is there, also they have the Extreme on for $270.
But wait, there's more....
When I got home from work tonight I thought I would take one more look for the elusive remote....You can probably guess what I'm about to say next so I will just quote the e-mail I sent to Great Vape....:/
Well, there ya have it! I'm a freakin genius!Bemuse to great vape said:

Ok, so there's a Stephen at both Arizer and Greatvape...yes?
P.S. -- I'm rocked right now
P.S. -- I'm rocked right now
...and I'm about to vape with another Steve.
yo... so ive been following this thing since the initially discussion about vs. the herbal aire...
my vapir one died on me and i immediately ordered the extreme...
man am i glad i did... although it took a while to make it due to various circumstances the customer support was simply amazing throughout the process.... All hail Steve...
so i am thoroughly satisfied and give this a 10/10
Thanks for all the info
Peace

Welcome glizitch. This site was the deciding factor for me too. No regrets.glizitch said:

Tonight I vaped at 315C and got some really nice hits from the whip and a pretty dense bag of vapor. Haven't tried it with the heat this low before but was really impressed with the results.

Well I must say that this extreme has saved me the past week. I completely ran out of herb and lived off revaping the spent herb for 7 days! True it doesn't taste as good, it's more like "commercial" now, but with the prices here in NYC this has been a godsend! And I got wasted! I don't think the Vapolution could do that...
On another note, I didn't receive a buddy bowl either. Did anyone else get one with the package? Steve mentions it as well as the battery pack in the video, but I assumed it was an option.\
Lastly I do think leaving the unit around 350 is asking for low level combustion. If you take a leisurely 20 minutes with a bowl, lower it down as you go along... the remote is great for that!

did you unwrap the kind of white rubber on one of the 2 bowl ??vapercussion said:
yes this forum is great...
its probably the got the most info regarding the extreme anywhere...
so here are some thoughts about this great product....
you can totally do a balloon through a water piece ... its awesome especially if you have an ice catcher in the piece.... this is a huge plus....
ive been using 310C and it produces quite a thick vapor...
i used it at 310C with the fan on high to fill balloons... i read about people usi0ng higher temperatures but im not sure that is necessary when i get such a thick vapor at 310C... can anyone vouch for higher temperatures than this?
also has anyone thought of a case to put this thing in.. its got so many glass pieces i imagine a foam padded briefcase where you could make cutouts for the pieces would be real nice.. like a glass case...
i appreciate any input with this ...
let me know if i can answer anyones questions about this great device!!!
peace

310C heated for 20 minutes with the loaded bowl in for the last 10 minutes. Hit one thick bag and done.
that also depend of the quality of your herb ...

I'm confused.
It seems people get more then one bag, I seem to get like one bag then it starts tasting foul...maybe i should put more herb in?
Also, I can get a dense vapor as low as 260, and as high as 340, but it's very confusing on what is optimal.
This is what I "think" I know:
THC boils between 180 and 200, and herb combusts at 230 right? I got that from the NORML site.
So if that is the case, and the Extreme bowl temp is 100 above the core, wouldnt that make the ideal temp be 280 to 300?
But if that is the case, and people here set thier extreme all the way up to 350, isnt that 20 degrees C over combustion?
Does vapor appear before thc boils as well and that is why im getting vapor on low temps? Is it true that if you can see thick vapor that its too warm? Is it more efficient to have it a bit too warm or a bit too cool?
If I heat it up good, then turn it down to 270 for example, let the fan go on speed one a few seconds then high speed...I will get hits as thick as i do on 310, and sometimes the taste will go bad after just one balloon too.
I try to eliminate all the other variables, but using the same temp, weed, amount of weed and fan speeds....I'll get different results. Maybe cause after unit is left on for awhile it just gets hotter faster? not sure.
Anyway, any info people have on the facts of the combustion temps and vape temps would be appreciated. It seems like the subject is missing a lot of research on the net.
And are we SURE the bowl temp on the extreme is EXACTLY 100 degrees above the core temp displayed on the unit? Cause if it is...wouldnt it combust over 330?

I turned the unit on to preheat at 310C for 20 minutesstickstones said:
I took my sweet-ass herb and put it in the bowl and put the bowl on the Extreme for the last 10 of the 20 warmup minutes.
I then blasted the fan on speed 3 and got the second sweetest bag ever.
If I get results that are noteworthy, I will post them in a simple format like above. That way we can quickly get testing feedback up here for all of us to see.
There are so many variables to consider, it's probably pretty unlikely for different people to consistantly produce similar results with different herbs/units/etc, etc. The temp reading on the Extreme is measuring the element, it was said to be ROUGHLY 100C higher than the air hitting your herb. There's probably some variance between units so that's another thing to consider.Triplebaked said:
But, as usual, I don't own an Extreme so what do I know.
I do agree with you on the first few hits tasting the best. I think that's because you're vaping the best of the trichomes and tasty terpenes. If you keep going, you're eventually vaping the fibrous plant matter itself. It may have some desirable compounds but certainly not as tasty imo.

Check the article again. I think it said those temps were in a vaccuum and that temps in the earth's atmosphere would differ some.
If I heat it up good, then turn it down to 270 for example, let the fan go on speed one a few seconds then high speed...I will get hits as thick as i do on 310, and sometimes the taste will go bad after just one balloon too.
I can usually get three good bags once I get the temp right for that strain...each one gradually worse than the one prior.
I try to eliminate all the other variables, but using the same temp, weed, amount of weed and fan speeds....I'll get different results. Maybe cause after unit is left on for awhile it just gets hotter faster? not sure.
This is as good a reason as I can come up with. Is the weed cut pretty much the same each time (like same grinder, etc.). I find that using less weed gets me thicker hits, although it gets used up quicker.
And are we SURE the bowl temp on the extreme is EXACTLY 100 degrees above the core temp displayed on the unit? Cause if it is...wouldnt it combust over 330?
See above about the combustion temp being in a vaccuum. It was reported to be 'about' 100C. We know that it is not exact and it differs between identical units (see one unit here combusting weed at something like 260C).
Hope this helps. BTW, I'm seeing consistency here...I just vaped at the same settings as documented here last night and am blasted again!
Really good ground weed, halfway to the black on the bowl -- Preheat to 310C for 10 minutes -- Put bowl on unit and let sit another 10 minutes -- Fill a bag on fan setting 3 -- Get rocked!

yes i think 310C is the optimal speed for this baby as well... i will try your method stickstones and report back here... i think it would be crazy to go above 315C....
i absolutely love how this interfaces with glass you already have.. the bag becomes a slidel for your favorite glass water pipe.... be sure to clean it first! and with an icecatcher forget about it!!! i love how the bag tips taper off and kinds have a lip to make perfect suction as a slide.. genius!!!
but seriously? what do you think about a case? i think maybe an aluminum case with foam where you could make cutouts would be sweeet....
well thats my rant.........

i don't stop to say......You MUST find out your best temp by yourself!!!A lot of variables are to consider to find the right spot.
The only tip i could say is: Start test at 250 and any further session increase temps by 5 steps....in a short time you'll end to know your own chicken perfectly!
