Agreed. I’m crossing my fingers that everything works out for US orders.

Believe me I'm happy to see your vision and ingenuity come to fruition and I was also proud to take part in the first batch of the pre-release Tempest orders in October of 2023, but I would be lying if I said I'm happy to see the second iteration of the Tempest I ordered is apparently completely sourced, manufactured, assembled and packaged in China. Hard for me to believe that this couldn't have been done within the UK or EU itself and support those manufactures and economies instead of China. If the answer is strictly cost related then I admit I prefer support to companies like Simrell that charge a bit more but source and manufacture what they make in the country that they actually exist in. But hey, that's just me.
Is that a TA4? If so, mind if I reach out separately for some questions?As Bob Marley sings
rock it baby, rock it baby, tonight
Enjoy your weekend, don't stress about something is out your reach or control.
fire burnoh no heat and vape!
Also wish I got a 2nd tempest head and cooling unit…
Hoping to god no issues for US.

No way, was checking my order number to compare and the delivery notification email came in right then!
Hoping for the same luck 
.What number are you?
Thought I was pretty quick in getting my order in. Not as quick as I'd hoped

A full bowl one heat extraction video. I did it with cbd since I had to work on some things, so you can expect better results with thc 
also, the abv image looks more dark than what it is.
Edit: most of the puffs are mtl

I would recommend a quad flame torch but i like small torchs with good tank and stone instead of click and it is hard to find simething like that

So I had something delivered this morning....
Brenyo you were definitely right. It looks even better in person
Is this the first picture of the CU?
I've only had time to clean it, but this thing is stunning. A couple of observations, the cap screw thread feels really nice. Twists on and off with a quick turn
I ran a quick heat cycle with an empty bowl, and it stayed hot for a long time.
I can't wait to test it later

It includes a newly designed wand stand and adapter. Probably do not want to add a different brand device recommendation in the manual.
The new wand adapter looks horrendous. The only benefit over the old one seems to be it not being able to break but not sure if I will use it...

If God is the answer, then the question is wrong
Im gonna stick with the v1 wand adapter. I love it. Works with my dynas, tornado, and anvil.
I do the tabletopbong rec for those and flip it upside down with the silicone in place. Then i move the wand stand further down and it creates a balanced horizontal wand position. Perfect for tornado and anvil. You can adjust the depth as usual too.
Ill keep the v2 as a backup adapter. I see the vision, just not very elegant. Major 3-D print vibes. Could use better filament.

I keep wanting to comment and commiserate with others on the wait for my Tempest but I don't want to dirty up the thread (which moves fast enough already) so here is a thread for wishin and bitchin... This wait has not been overly long, just painful with anticipation. Apparently Brenyo has not...

Compare the performance difference first
It's not the filament, but an issue with the odd shape of the design and lack of some slicer features. Happy to improve it if someone has a better idea for the shape / design. The adapter is not really visible on the desk, it's below the wand and looks fine from the sides.
