I don't think there's any comparison. Get the EVO.
Yes there is. Yes, the EVO is capable of producing more amazing and impressive vapor from such a small load that Volcano would have trouble with. But that doesn't mean the EVO is better for everything.
The Volcano is way more reliable and unbreakable than EVO and can totally overpower the EVO when you load it for a large group of people. And you don't have to worry about glass accidents when you share it. Also there is little to no risk at its quality control.
I would say the EVO is awesome and powerful personal vape, or shared with a good friend.
The Volcano is not very impressive for personal use, but kicks ass when used in groups.
There have been a few QC issues as VXH has expanded recently but...
Yes, as much as I love and support vapexhale and want to see them make it big, I have to warn about this.
It's not just recently, the whole time they have been here there were batches of defective units and/or HTs.
I am wishing them the best of luck to finally get everything perfected asap.
I'm not saying that all or most of units are bad, but there's been a lot of them in the last 5 years of VXl existence.
There has been bad batches where most of units were bad, there have been good abtches where most of units were perfects and everywhere in between. As much as I love EVO and hate to admit this - yes, there is a risk of getting a bad unit. Volcanoes have been around for a long time and also have been perfected for a long time. I haven't heard of a single bad Volcano so far.
The VapeXhale is working hard to make it big and make all its customers happy. And the EVO is just awesome. They have been groving for 4 years and still are - and because of that there a re always some new problems they have to overcome. I think they are near that goal and within like 1-2 years, they should get stabilized and make the quality control finally consistent. I can't wait too see that happen.
All of this may sound like I praise the Volcano while spitting at EVO, but I just wanted to make a valid counterargument, because everyone here makes EVO look like flawless and Volcano overrated. Which is both false. Both of them are awesome, have their place and I love them.
The EVO is not flawless and a total winner over everything, it's getting too much love in here because FC is full of vapor enthusiasts like me who just love the EVO experience to the point of denying the flaws.
And the Volcano is probably underrated here the same way I'm saying all this bad stuff here about EVO. Everywhere else on the internet, the Volcano is still overrated as the ultimate vape just like EVO is in here. So FC members are reacting to that the same way I'm reacting to the EVO hype right now - saying it's not the best. But they are overdoing it and making the Volcano look worthless, which it really isn't.
Also the high price of Volcano often gets criticized here, but honestly, When I put a half-price vape like EQ next a to a Volcano, I can clearly see the Volcano has at least 2 times better quality, so the price is imo justified. That doesn't mean I wouldn't like to see its price drop, just that I undestand why it costs so much. The EVO is even pricier and no EVO enthusiast is bitching about that. Even with the recent HT quality that some people compare to cheap chinese glass. I understand the price of EVO too btw...
Volcano is a great Vape but a one trick pony.
MAybe the EVO is a bit more versatile, but imo it also can be called a one-trick pony - it is designed for run through a waterpipe and that's the one trick everyone is using it for. Yes, you can attach a draw mouthpiece or a whip to it, but you could do as well with Volcano somehow and it doesn't really strike me as a huge enhancement of versatility.
One thing I agree on is that EVO uses a standard 18mm GonG that you can attach to a lot of custom glass (but it's all glass and basically the same thing), while Volcano uses it's own connection.
EVO can do it all minus bags, but even then members have come up with ways to to blow bags with the EVO
Yes, by attaching it to a Volcano
Ok, i think it can be done with any pump, but I've only seen it done with Volcano
Also what is your favorite Hydrotube if you have one?
VapeXhale HydraCirc 2.0. Sadly, these modular tubes are not officialy made anymore and I think they are not going to return.
I'd love to see them return, all the HT's from the last 3 generations were sidecircs, I hope at least some variety in mouthpieces will return if not modular ones.
