I sent my unit back totally clean, brushed the heater off, torched the screens and iso washed the stems. I don’t really believe these accusations, if they are true it would be a tragedy as you were very accommodating to accept a return. I would never mail dirty stems or vapes. Thats bad practice.

I didn’t even have mine long enough to “gunk up” or build residue up in the heater at all, I don’t know how anyone else managed to do that in a week. Not to mention the fact the residue only builds up in the stem not the heater. I also know for a fact that the units that were returned were used no more extensively then mine.
You seem to imply that the customers who had trouble are inexperienced vapers who ruined their “flawlessly performing” units and now you have to go into the red to repair them. I have a picture of my unit during one of the last test sessions I did, I cropped the heater out so you can see how little “avb buildup” there is on the heater. Nothing I couldn’t brush away before returning.

The claims on here that the people having trouble are just stupid and new to vaping is very frustrating, I have plenty of experience with logs and log-likes to know how to use and what to expect from a vape at this point. I was having a pretty crummy experience with my e43, and I loved my experience with my enano- I thought a heavy log would be more efficient, consistent, and reliable then my e43 as a desktop. so I decided to buy an alpha based on multiple users recommendation that it was the heaviest hitting, largest load accommodating log on the market.
The results I got (even after extensive fiddling and trial and error) didn’t match up to any of what I expected based on what I read online. I haven’t had to play with my enano or other vapes for longer then 5 minutes to get consistent results, I am not sure if maybe the underdogs are super technique heavy but I wasn’t under that impression, in fact I purchased it because I knew logs to be dead simple to use- and after toying so much with the e43- I didn’t want to have to play with another vape to get good results.
The vape itself seems to be having a bit of an identity crisis, some users claim its a flowerpot killer (why else would you be posting videos of it side by side with flowerpot videos?) while others are loading less then a dynavap cap and saying its a master extractor (both of which- in my experience I found it to have trouble with big loads and thorough extraction)
On the subject of avb, being told that pictures with inconsistent avb coloring and visible green in the picture are fully extracted
https://ibb.co/rwnYB5Q is beyond frustrating- a user linked a picture of their alphas avb recently:

I see loads of unspent thc in that picture.
Here are some pictures of the avb my alpha was producing on day 4 ( I had put about a half ounce through it at this point during many hours of testing)

now heres an example of the kind of even consistent avb I was expecting

It feels weird to me folks (Including dave) are choosing to blame it all on user error even though a good portion of the people who bought units last drop all had a similar experience, are people seriously trying to imply all of our bud is bad, and that each one of us is managing to use them wrong? Thats seems highly unlikely.
I apologize for the lack of formatting in this post, as I don’t use fuck combustion much.
and it also cools down so quickly!!
