The Tempest by Mad Heaters & Phatpiggie

[PeePhlegm]

where did you find those information on the website? I only find a link to the forum regarding the Tempest

If you type "t" into the search bar, then select Collections then go into Tempest (3 products) and scroll down there is a lot of info in there already. This page is under construction however so it's not finished or finalised but it's looking pretty good already tbh.

awesome, thanks!!!!!

also I am wondering, if the heat shield fits on a revolve, or is the radiator insert necessary?

I see on the website that you made the decision to go with x85 zirconia ceramic balls instead of rubies, what made you decide upon the change in material?

I do think I've seen people say they prefer the ceramic as you get really tasty dense hits using it and it "dumps" the heat better also (not sure what they mean by that).

Also what mm are the zirconia balls you went with? 85 seems like a lot of balls haha

Pretty much what I found too, it just works a bit better and tastes great.
It might change slightly how many it fits but should be around 85, I've yet to try the final model and count it. It will come with 2.5mm and that works the best imo but you can also use it with 3mm.

It won't fit, only on the radiator insert

I think they mean the heat transfers better

Yes, it's on the manual a few pages back. The "half" bowl is 0.5cc (nearly a full DV bowl), full bowl is 0.8cc

Leather case

This is the flattened version which will be folded in half, it's not ready yet. Black vegtan leather with thick threading and titanium branded tag finished to match the cooling unit color. The color changes the metal tag and it's still undecided if the threading as well.
It can be closed so there is no dust going into the MP or hanged from a lanyard for example.

Thats cocobolo! Will that sleeve become available in the future?

Yes, should be available with the tempest

 

[RedZep]

Yes, should be available with the tempest

If I buy all titanium Tempest, could I purchase wood/glass sleeves on future? Does it have that kind of interchangeability?

Sure, the sleeves will remain compatible back to gen 1.

Does the tempest still have the secondary cooling spiral?

 

[Datoneguy]

Any estimates on a release date for this one? Heard a few months back that it’s likely before the end of the year but wanted to check and see if a more specific timeframe is able to be drawn at this point?

Current estimate is about 2 months, but there are always delays.

If i already have the revolve v2 what parts on the website will i need to have the full tempest? And is there a differance between the tempest colling unit and the revolve cooling unit?

 

[Datoneguy]

Also, does subscribing to the madheater newsletter work for getting info on the tempest in the future? Hoping there’s an email i can sign up for, so that i can avoid these forums and keep my vas in check while waiting lol. This site keeps introducing me to too many new and exciting vapes, like the tempest lol.

The pre-order will start about 4-6 weeks before the release, you can sign up for the newsletter to get notified

Tempest Head (with or without optional debowler) and either of the new sleeves.

There is, the Tempest CU doesn't have the mesh and DRC feature.

Here is a video of a session with Wand, zirconia balls, full bowl. The cap is not finished yet, please ignore that it's a bit ugly

Loved this. First observation is that the workflow of emptying/reloading is swift and elegant, especially with the Reload.

Second observation is my god that is a lot of vapour for this style of device. Those balls are clearly allowing the device to have a long heat cycle window.

This video has confirmed the reasons for my hype.

To be honest the performance exceeded my expectations.

They were some seriously fat clouds and the avb looked even and not overly brown at all. I was expecting it to come out a lot darker. Looks like you could hit another cycle if you really wanted to.

Insane. Delighted I held off on buying anything else. Can't wait man, top stuff!

This looks epic, I'm holding out for the yll 2.0 to use with the tempest, any reason not to do that over the wand? I don't like the form factor of the wand, but if it's gonna be a deal breaker I'll get it instead of the YLL 2.0

I haven't heard anything about the YLL 2.0 induction heater. Sounds interesting.

I don't own a ball vape.

However the vapor in the video looks like the kinda clouds that troy makes when using his desktop ball vapes.

This one’s special.

Big clouds indeed. What impressed me more is the amount of time it was producing clouds. Could have called this thing the "Ball-joint"

How much does the bowl hold?
