Is the Tempest a conduction or a convection vape?
To me it feels like a convection vape, I don’t get stoned.
It's not really comparable in that fashion. From my view, convection is the best method currently, but if there isn't enough power (calories/joules) to heat the air enough, and/or the bowl walls have a significant cooling effect, then conduction is required to warm the side walls to about the same temp as the air flow, so there's little heat loss around the sides of the bowl. The 'pests appear to rely on a very thin bowl wall (so less heat required to bring it to ambient temp) and also cleverly directs the hot air through and around the bowl to minimise the effects of heat loss.
As for whether it gets you stoned or not, that's likely more down to how hot the weed gets, not whether it's convection or conduction or a mixture that does the job, and also your personal reaction to the terpenoids, plus the strain used and it's profile.
(even the use of those terms (convection and conduction) is not always accurate and/or meaningful).
Just scalded my leg with fresh hot tea., idiot, wet towel applied.. V2 painkiller just being fired up.
Wow! Now
that's dedication for you! I just go straight for the painkiller and cut out the actual pain bit!

Didn't you worry about permanent injury before pouring all that hot tea over yourself?
P.S. if you have the patience, ten or fifteen mins under running cold water does the best job of minimising tissue damage. (that one isn't a joke - for a change!
