@phattpiggie I'm finding the material in the glass doesn't vape completely, i.e. it's a much much lighter brown than it is normally in the oven. And that's after getting to the point of zero vapor on high. Are you seeing the same thing?

Also, what are you plans for that there board?

I never had a problem it always came out looking properly spent. Try knocking it out and refilling to see if it gives you a bit more. If the thermistor still works then I shall do a rebuild and run it again for a while before I attempt to change it about a bit. 27 days ago I asked if I could get another module only to be told they couldn't get me one. Its worth a go for $6.

Placed an order for the $7 module, my failed one has the same numbers on as the cheaper one. Will see how it goes when it arrives. I need an electronics vapist my head will not take in the information I keep feeding it on the subject. The only problem with some vapists is their inability to concentrate fully on the subject. As we are all finding out when sending emails to manufacturers.

Titan 2 arrived @ zornys hood today! yesss! Looks great, i got the higher quality one!

How long did it take for you guys to get rid of the famous robotic smell?
I have it on the charger and running on highest temp for 30 minutes (with short breaks for cooling down), but the horrible smell and taste wont go away........

Any hints for that? cleaning the inner board, the battery and the oven somehow with alcohol?

If the bad smell comes from the board, not from the oven: anyone changed the airpath throught the device (air intake only from the holes on the side, eliminating the airflow through the whole device...?)

But: I am very suprised, and that in a positive way! Hopefully the taste gets better and healthier ^^

In a few minutes i will try some third class weed with this new toy. I am excited! :)

Congrats, just curious, how do you know it is the better made unit? A way to identify what is good verses bad is what many would want to know. Short of opening and taking a look, seems a hard call to make. The fact that you are experiencing a bad smell is IMO not a great sign as some here have stated that theirs never had a really bad odor.
The air-path is fine and very little goes over the electronics. Unless something has blown on the PC board there will not be any noticeable odor from that route.
Last thing is the battery charging. As with any new battery, it needs to be initially charged fully on the first charge before being used. This establishes the battery's limits. Sometimes it's easy to overlook such a routine, specially when your drooling. But will cost some battery life down the road. This throwing this out there as is good to remind of this from time to time.
Hoping the best for you and hope all works out well.

Well, when i said "better quality unit", i meant this just for the first look on the housing. In this thread here, someone posted o picture of an unit with very weak, thin plastik walls in comparson to an other titan 2 which has a better housing. So i just called it "higher quality " cause i did not know that there are so much variables in this unit (but yes i know, there are more manufacturers of this thing...)

Well, as you mentioned, i raped the battery quite hard yesterday evening. Even if i should knew it better ^^

I will charge it to the maximum today, hopefully the plugged in charger has minimized the damadge on the battery i caused on yesterdays vaping and burning spree.


The ugly taste is still there, and that sucks. The puff and vaping sensation is great, i got much more clouds than i am used to from my iolite.
But the taste is not good at all.


I really need a fix for that. Maybe i have to build my own oven like you (pipes) did... Do you know where to buy such materials for repairing heating elements?

Is this the same thing like building an heating element for an e-cig? (I have no experiences in this direction)


Thanks very much!

@max I can't see it being one manufacturer. You would have thought if they were all made in the same place then there would be more standardization. Pipes has a different heater than I do. The tech of fast, FT, offer two different control modules from two different manufacturers. From the numerous images on the net I've seen at least four different hole configurations in the bottom of the stainless oven. @zorn I turned mine on and blew thru it when it was hot when I was doing burn off's. The first two or three loads after that tasted bad but it didn't take long to clear. As Pipes says there is no way of knowing which one you have unless you see all the parts before they are fitted to the unit. I bought the expensive one form FT and I was probably just lucky about my heater but unfortunate with the control module. At the moment it looks the other way around for Pipes, shitty heater good electronics. He may even have the same electronics board but manufactured properly. It's all a game of chance.

Then there's copying going on, which is unusual for a low priced vape. These companies normally just take a design and make a slight change or two, and call it a different model. I guess the name 'Titan' carries enough branding for them to make a copy and call it a Titan. And if that's the case I'd say it's a risky model to buy.

I've always wondered if I had a copy as well, but it works and the solder taste is gone...still doesn't taste as good as I imagine a Summit, Pax or similar portable would.

I have a feeling they're all from the same place...but then again, I don't know the market well enough to say. I'm seeing them for around $45 still on eBay.

I dunno, but it could be out of the same factory. I saw a chinese guy on utube reference the Titan (teeton :lol:) 2 vape (vape rizzer) on a Titan 3 vid, or VS 2 he says as if he is maybe a rep from some company, and it shows VS on the OLED dislplay and he talks about delivery time, etc. Sounded like he was recording in a factory as well. Regardless, VS is the brand name.

Are you looking for the Titan brand or features like on the one that you're linking?

sorry, I didn't recieve email notification of your answer.
I'm asking if this "Titan 3" realy is from the series.

btw, they have the Titan 2 cheap: http://www.ecigaretteb2c.com/titan-2-hebe-weed-herb-wax-vaporizer-pen.html I not a regular smoker, but I use a "light bulb vape". would this be ok for the first vape?

ok, I found it even cheaper: https://www.fasttech.com/search?titan
but why do they have it at 4 diferent prices?

Guys re-read the thread, there was a video posted made by the manufacturer explaining how to spot fakes versions vs the genuine one. This is the proof that a lot of illegal copying is taking place as the video was showing at least two different clones with cheaper IC and removed protection circuits.

If you plan to buy a Titan then don't try to find the lowest price on aliexpress or the like, as you'll likely be buying a cheap copy of an already cheap vaporizer.

On a related note my Smiss contact told me to warn all FC members that there are fake FlowerMates in circulation too. The bargain you think you are getting might instead turn out to be a gambling with your own health...

Nah, the Solo thread has a lot of pages! This one is tiny... :) 'twas in the middle, just look for embedded youtube players and skip the rest you should find it.

PS: it might have concerned the Titan 1 and not the 2, but if the first was cloned I imagine the second was too

Yeah it was for the 1. And that video helped, I spotted a few knockoffs in various headshops.

I paid almost double what those are going for but I have never once gotten robot fart smell and had zero issues after months of daily heavy use.

And with the glass stem modification your lips don't get warm, you waste less herb, and there is a good surface for reclaim.

Granted, it's not as good as most other vaporizers but it's worked out really well while I save for something better.

EDIT: found the post with the fakes video

the thread appears in a sub directory, i don't saw it!
i have received this new video link from vapor source , about Titan clones. the manufacturer knows the smell problem with some units.


if somebody could give us the lost video link ( the guy blowing in the Titan to show the vapor escaping from the usb port.), thanks'.

It will an opportunity to the manufacturer to see it, for the next upgrade?

I don't know if the problems are solved on the Titan2.

:disgust: It seems that any model produced in China that gets popular may now also get copied.

:lol: Brasil, you haven't looked around much here have you?
