He's in the UK, if you're talking about @scruffywoofer, postage from the UK to Canada should be fairly quick, shouldn'ttake more than 2 to 3 weeks maximum probably closer to a week if postage isn't on strike in either country . I can't see postage being too expensive either as its relatively small and not very heavy.
Wow thanks for the blazingly fast reply much appreciated. So 8mm it is then. Going to order one in a bit I'll also try and find out postage costs to Canada plus check on expected delivery times and shipping costs. Just going to grab a few hours sleep first as its getting light outside lol.

I reached out to azzwoodcustoms a few weeks ago. They said that it's only small batch releases from Vestratto atm, but once it's available they'll be placing a stock order.
I also enquired about the Dani and Camouflet (I really love their shop, and was hoping they'll start selling all the hot sticks lol). Unfortunately, it's a no for the Dani
But there are plans to start testing some of the Camouflet lineup.

Yep, already ordered the adapters a long while ago but they're still stuck in Customs from the prior strike in Canada as far as I can tell.
My post before was about the Vaphit stem which I've already received but can't use without the adapters. Sigh.

100% agree with this - really wish they clicked a bit sooner, perhaps they were pushed to a higher temperature to align with the selling point of using an induction heater.
Testing so far has been very positive. Brutal clouds on the click, yet so smooth to inhale. Avb was all uniform and so light in colour. I was sure it had to be darker because of the amount of vapor, especially with the torch. I've been using both torch and wand, 1 time each so far.
With torch I used a small 3-flame lighter (the Joboon 2024v) and the 2nd click went of around 20sec with heating. Heated above the airholes and I got a ton of vape. Didn't consider torching it again. I got even light brown avb, totally perfect. I actually felt a little high after the hit
With wand I fired it up around 270c until time out. The tornado was inserted from above, airholes was not inside the wand. First hit was very nice, not as much vapor as with the torch. I reheated it with 8-9 flashes and got a little more vape out. Avb was a little lighter than with torch.
On both attempts I used CBD bud, not any high terpene stuff, but still I got a decent taste from the tornado.
Also tried with some CBD dry sift hash, heated with the wand. So far I haven't gotten the temp right though. The taste was very nice from it, but the vapor was whispy. Trying to find the perfect temp for closer to a OHE.
This is my first Vestratto product and I'm very pleased with the result so far

Good experimenting though! I'm sure you'll find your formula. When using the Wand sometimes just one or two flashes more can make the difference
. Search for some videos by @electrokho82. I think he has several where he performs OHEs.

If anyone is disc 'clicking' at a point where you are already over-roasted, then I would suggest to apply heat slightly nearer to the discs instead, keeping all other variables the same.

I use the wand to heat the bowl and since it is very large and the wand is small there is little room for movement.
Since the second use I have no combustion problems, using the first click as if it were the second.
It is clear that the clicks should sound a little earlier but I see a lot of fanaticism, it seems that it is difficult to see the reality and not criticize the few deficiencies it has.
For the rest (and even with this small error) it seems to me to be the best vaporizer on the market.

100% agreed. Absolutely still a top tier vape, just not as forgiving as I'm used to when heating the Anvil or dyna.
Lately I've been doing two heat cycles with the tornado, aiming my torch just below the top ring for each cycle and waiting for both clicks on cooldown before I reheat. Keeps me safe from combustion/overheating.
I mean, I was critical as fuck earlier in the thread, but I do get two usable clicks even after a near month of very heavy use, so I can understand why some may push back on that.

If you are using a thermally induced clicking sound caused by the temperature indicating click discs to tell you when it has reached your preferred temperature, then they are working as intended. There is no rule or instruction that states you should heat until the second click. It is a manual vape after all. The clicks can only provide useful information within a certain range of circumstances, and are meant to help with torch heating more than induction heating. I personally usually only heat until the first click with most of my vapes that click. I'll generally heat my one hitter and Dynacoil Dynavap setups to the second click, but that's it.

Ty to Vapenorth for that Happy New Year Deal and fast shipping
Took about 9 days to arrive in my location.
So i originally was trying to follow TTbong tornado guide during my first attempts to heat the device but i find its somewhat tight when inserting the tornado from top of the wand. Instead i tried tkvape route which is inserting the tornado from bottom of the wand and adding cork to block it from entering the hole.
Instead of using cork. I cut me some silicone mats instead. I cut about 5 mats so i can stack them together to give me some flexibility on wand depth=). I used a penny coin as a guide to cut the silicone. Im not sure about durability of this. but at least i can hit it up hands free again
Vape signature profile of tornado is definitely something else. Definitely Heavy Hitter and recommend if you like TEDS
Definitely still trying to learn the device. Tornado Hits
Enjoy

Anyone doing the cult thing of aggressively attacking any talk of faults is doing the Tornado a disservice. I recall John taking our criticisms seriously when he released the first Anvil model. He then perfected it.
This can be a very defensive thread. Even if you begin your post saying the vape is amazing. I've tried modifying my speech, but now I just act like normal, and try not to let aggressive reactions bother me.

I'm just providing an experienced perspective. You calling it a "cult thing" is certainly more aggressive and offensive than that. Anyone who does not understand how heating technique affects the state the vaporizer is in when the click(s) occur will not have an optimal experience with any manual vaporizer that uses bimetallic clicking temperature indicators, or any other current temperature indication system I'm aware of, unless by chance. They may then go on to criticize the vaporizer's flavor or other performance characteristics, when it's really a technique issue. You can get anywhere from light underroast to full combustion at the click depending on how you heat any vaporizer that works like this.
I don't even know what you are referring to. I didn't read your comment. I was replying to the other poster about the general feel of the thread being Hyper defensive, and not great for constructive feedback.
So I'm not aiming anything at you there.
EDIT. Just read your comment and I agree that is helpful.

Way to re-write history man.
People weren't defending the Tornado because of some cult status, but because the only real criticism was coming from *someone* who didn't even own the device, yet insisted on making unfounded criticisms repeatedly.
Let's not.
Device is awesome. Let's make people feel they can give all kinds of feedback.
John perfected the Anvil over iterations. I'm sure he will do the same with thr Tornado. So people should be encouraged to offer nit picks as well as praise.

I think that’s the point he’s making; nitpicks and praise from people who haven’t used the device isn’t feedback, it’s speculation. Feedback from someone who hasn’t used the device isn’t actionable or useful, really.
I think your cult comment is a wild take, considering that Vestratto kinda makes it hard for people to like them as a company. Recent examples that come to mind include the baffling tornado stem incompatibility, the forge situation, that bad experience one user had earlier in the thread, and more recently, that leaked forge warranties document.
The only time I really saw that in this thread was when someone kept calling it "a big anvil" and making similar remarks that didn't jive with other users experience when they didn't even have one themselves.
Yes my bad. You are all quite chill. Anyway...
Other posters reporting similar experiences. I just think it should be encouraged for people to be able to give their thoughts, without fear of reprisals. Especially if we want the device to be perfected.
Just because it's an amazing device doesn't mean it can't be better.

for those that don’t already know. If you click a users name you can choose to ignore their comments. This really comes in handy when you find a user annoying or what ever. Personally i use, and love this feature. cuts out a lot of the nonsense, and makes for a much more pleasant experience! Peace!
Honestly, don't worry about it. I don't think I offer much productive in this thread so I'll dip. I think my calls for people to be heard and not attacked are probably pointless anyway now I think about it. I don't think John reads this thread. He probably has his own ideas on how he will perfect the device.
Not for nothing, I've had PM's from people feeling bullied by you lot. It's a very unique thread on FC. That could be some food for thought. Sorry for the derailing.
Got a link to this? I've looked and looked and can't find shit.
I've had discussions about your comments on the tornado when you didn't have one with others in other forums. You've helped foster any combative nature in this thread. That could be some food for thought.
And I'm not trying to attack you etc, I'm just trying to provide some balance to your jab.
