Video? ;) ive heard mixed opinions on the glycerol being not very productive in vapor. Are you using a pg blend or pure vg? Ive been using my ava for almost 2 years now and have found at least 2 drops every 8 to 10 puffs so for me its more like 20-30 reloads a day purely only vg cause the pg alllllways leaked through onto the slider button. <3 im inching closer to that buy button =)

I have used the HR AVA's both with and without the RES system. I thought the AVA was a little finicky and needed a couple of drops added a few times a day (which seemed like a hassle) The RES which houses an HR AVA as well as a porous ceramic "barrel" was a great improvement.

The Cera Glycerol cart is like a cross between the two. I dripped in a few drops and heated it up about 10 seconds (from dry) and then added about 4 more smaller drops. We were off to the races then! The flavor seems "cleaner" than it's predecessors also the core seems very powerful, so I had to adjust my puff technique to not choke myself. It's some pretty serious equipment for vapor enthusiasts.

Hope you find this a helpful inducement to stop your tarrying and click the BUY NOW button, asap!

If you (or any other EL users) prefer a strong throat hit, how would you rate the Cera in that regard? I like a bit of harshness in my ejuice vapor, so I use 18mg juice and like to run LR attys at 4.0-4.2 v. With the T1, I was using the AVA SR at 6v. For the most part I use pure VG.

So basically, I'm hoping that the Cera can give me that nice "scratchiness" in my throat.

TIA!

On my 3rd inhale yellow smoke shot out of the airholes on Cera and I inhaled a putrid taste. Yup that was combustion all right.
So yes it can combust.

Thanks for that precision buchee.
Mmm i'am so hesitant at this point.....i'm ready to spent 250/300$ for my next portable vape, and the Cera is on my top list but ......no real temp control ........for a vape WHO CAN combust, (even if it seems difficult to do it, it may happen)...... i dont know what to think......
It seems that the Cera LL is heating A LOT. Vids shows us really black AVB, the MouthPiece seems to become really hot (thermal covers, tube using, .....)
Maybe this can be avoid with the ON/OFF switch, but if have to switch 20 times for one bowl ......pffffff !

Well TV does make custom order parts, so after they are up to date and you find that your LL is to hot maybe you could ask them to rebuild your chamber w/lower power? :2c:
BUT, I really think that once you have it for a few days this won't be a problem, and you will be vaping nice clouds no problems.
Good Luck with your choice.

I think you're not understanding how it works, perhaps? It's pretty unique and easy/natural to control. If you don't want it done that dark, don't hit on it as long and hard. In the process of drawing in the heated air, the load temperature goes up and doing so drives first the water, then the tasty parts, then the THC, and finally the CBD and other 'heavy stuff' some medical types crave.

Some guys like it more done than others. They hit it more, it gets hotter. No big deal.

If you go back to my first ever review (on the closed thread) you'll find I reported intentionally turning it on and letting it roll. It's very easy to control even at that level.

"Come on in, the water's fine".......

Well the Cera LL cart does get hot it has too to produce vapor IMO, when not working properly before it got resolved it got hot but not hot enough fast enough my abv was vaped in the seance that it changed color but I only got wisps of vapor once in a whole bowl, but after the fix to the switch it heated up instantly and heated the bowl and material and produced vapor.
Now you a have to let the material warm up before starting to draw on the cera but once the heat starts passing through the material at a steady constant rate of air flow you actually feel the plant matter releasing vapor, now its not like the pax or solo its not about just waiting and sucking back vapor but about paying attention to what works, slow steady draws, tight pack, loose pack ect I'm still trying to find the optimal load size, pack and draw speed to accomplish big clouds.

Now I have produced some nice clouds just with the cera and in a water pipe but I'm finding it hard to duplicate it every time but it is possible. Remember the bowl is small and doesn't really give you a whole lot of time to produce a large amount of vapor before its spent bring its size.

I want to make a video but I find it kinda hard and I never sem to say what I want maybe Ill try again today

If you're finding it hard to say what you want, maybe just make a silent one like buchee's! That seemed to work out pretty well. If u want any commentary you can just type it out as a reply to this thread. Just a suggestion :)

NoName, Yes i did 3 successive bowls the other night and it took 25 minutes give or take a minute as I had a timer going. I used 2 batteries though. I started the second battery during the packing of the 3rd bowl. The first battery didnt die nor did i notice any change in performance. However, starting from a cold Cera I think you want to start with a fresh battery as I have a noticed a considerably longer warm up time if I started with a half depleted battery. The first battery took close to 3 hours to charge but I didn't time it so I can't be certain. The stock charger doesn't have any readout to tell how many mah were put back in, voltage, etc. Just a red light for charging and green light for charged.

Hey Buchee,

Thanks for the response. Up to this point I have also changed batts after a couple of loads when using the LL cart ( and for the same reason: to shorten the subsequent warmup time of the third load). However, this was when I kept CERA in a constant 'latched ON position' (as you did in your last 2? Videos). I fully expect that with practice, I'll be able to 'pulse' power on (as I currently do with the Evolution) and enjoy the benefit of CERA's longer battery life. This will be especially true when the 2900mah-rated 18650 batt becomes available (word from TET today is that they are supposed to receive the 2900's sometime next week).

I am a little surprised that your first batt took so long to charge (I know you said you didn't actually 'time it') because it only took about 75 minutes for my 2250mah batt to fully re-charge after being run in CERA for my 2 loads (after around 15 minutes of 'use'). IIRC the stock TET charger has only one charging rate: 1000mah? I'm using a different charger because I already owned one (the XTAR SP2). It has three different charging rates: 500mah; 1A and 2A. I've been using the 1A charging rate up to now and will probably continue to do so. Hopefully you 'just lost track' of the charging time and your batts/charger are fine. I've never had any problems with the TET-specified generation 1 Ultrafire WF-188 charger in the past (but too slow at 650mah charging rate for CERA's batts) so I'm guessing they did their homework before specifying the stock charger.

Thanks again for the vids and your thoughts. Taking CERA anywhere special this weekend????

Well I'm gonna attempt a video with my iPad in a little while but im having trouble positioning a light or using a light for the vapor production so everyone can see it, you need a certin type of light or isit the brightness in the room with the light to help exposé the vapor clouds, whats the best way to go about this? Any thoughts before I get at her.

I've never done a video so I'm not sure how it will turn out but I guess ill try.
Ill do a LL cart and EO cart video ok

Wish me luck
