Sounds like you have one of the champion OG tickers.
In terms of the evo, near-black ABV is the one thing I can not consistently get. I have the narrow temp-band firmware version Evo tho so it's 3:30 or bust. The darkest ABV I can generate is when I have nearly 'powdered' ground, very dry flowers. With super fine ground I can get the instant extraction + full spectrum.
Ok that settles it, mine needs to go back for re-cal/firmware. I have the narrow power band deal, nothing at noon, nothing til 3pm
Warm up doesn't impact the narrow temp range units, I've tried going from cold start to warm up of 30 minutes. No real impact either way other than it needs at least 3 minutes warm up, cold start doesn't do anything.
The key issue is that the dial doesn't really do anything until you hit about 3pm, then it's 3-4pm where all the action is for what is normally 10am to close.

Pretty sure SM55 said when they test before sending out, that they test low, mid, and high spots on the dial? I understand the narrow power band glitch in the firmware, just not sure how they are making it past QC, since it should be easy to detect if there is vapor at least at 12 and MAX temp?
Those stuck in a narrow range, do you just not get any vapor on max temp?
Enchantre, you're killing me as my e-nano just arrived, but it will be months before I get an EVO lol

alright i just got it. the hydra tube is really beautiful. I'm not sure how to post pictures but its a straight neck early bird and i haven't seen one on the thread yet. the thing that surprised me the most is how small the bowl is. its way smaller then the extreme q bowl. and people say they can get medicated putting in just enough to fill the bottom? I'm kinda a lightweight so this suits me really well. it makes me not feel as bad paying outrageous prices just for a dime. so if i were to only use .025 bowls a 1.7 gram dime would last me like 68 sessions lol. and you can get like 2 or 3 drags from it? thats 136-204 drags per dime. lol it sounds too good to be true but Ill probably get a dime tonight to test it out.

Well your calling it a dime? Then you said it weighs 1.7? Which means Shwag? If so your numbers will be off.

Just got my EVO today in progress of my 1st session with it
I started it at 3 until it turned green and then dialed it back to 12 until it turned green. It gave light hits with minimal visible vapor with about a 1/2 full elb. I tried that twice and then cranked it to 3 and was getting nice thick vapor!
Definately gonna test more

well I'm not sure what terminology you use but the way I understand it is a dime is just 1.7 grams and doesn't have anything to do with quality. I think it used to be worth 10 dollars in the past (witch would make more sense) but then weed got more expensive and people just kept calling the same amount dime. I have payed as low as 20 and as much as 40 for 1.7
and yeah i do understand that higher quality flowers will produce more vapor

Bottom line is better weed vapes better. Shitty weed hardly vapes at all sometimes. And it's not just that you vape more to get there. Shitty weed doesn't have enough actives on the surface to vape effectively. I've had shwag before that only medicated when smoking. Just make sure you are using good weed when doing your math above!
well yeah I was just basing it on the reports I've seen here about people vaping small amounts. I will try to get the best quality that I can.

Around here we call it a 16th

The bamboo fall within a tight tolerance range. Each one is inspected as you describe. However, there was a manufacturing issue that resulted in a small number of out of spec bamboo getting by QA. That was resolved. All the units I have used have been consistent.
It is true that in-spec bamboo are slightly more restrictive compared to the Cloud OG (I can't speak to the Plus, not having had one). I noticed it by comparison my first session, but thereafter I quickly forgot about it. The performance is every bit as exceptional as my OG, if not more so. The new bamboo was redesigned to work in concert with the new heater design, so diameter differences are not a precise apple-to-apples comparison. This has resulted in some current Cloud owners, myself included, needing a little "re-learning" to adjust for the new design. But bottom line, IME the user doesn't need to pull hard at all to produce dense clouds. This was what I easily and comfortably got from my oldie lungs using the big Fanatic tube:

Yea it was on for an hour before I even took the first draw at 1 pm and I got really wispy vapor. I had a feeling something was off so I bumped it to max and let it sit for another 20 and my ABV is tan at best.

Thanks for all the heat up reminders, I had been cranking it to max and hitting as soon as green, but going to 3, then 12 and waiting the significant amount of time it takes to go green on 12 is giving me consistent vapor at 1 and 2 pm 
I also notice a huge difference in vapor density with 1/4 or less full vs 1/3 or 1/2 full, I wouldn't load less than 1/3 full for satisfying hits

Yeah, the one and only time I bought crappy weed, I barely got a puff out of it. I still have nightmares about that crap.

So, apparently, I think I've proven you can pull too slow with it.
I have to pull just fast enough to initiate 'whistle' mode to get good vapor density.
Is there anything that can be done about the whistle? can i like, bees wax the joint? that seems... no. not right at all. sprinkle kief on it?

I once had some low quality herbs that would not vape at all, but by drying them out as much as possible and grinding/shredding it into a very fine kief-like dust I was able to get wonderful thick tasty vapor. To get to the consistency i'm talking about you would need a small food processor or coffee grinder. No herb grinder would be sufficient.

Try adjusting or increasing the size of your load. My units' whistle disappears with a loaded ELB in.

OK disagree with me, I can't force you to be right
I had the distinct pleasure of spending some time with StoneMonkey himself today.
I was able to see and sample some of the new glass that is in the future.
Quick summation: start saving yourpennies dollars kiddies.
Of necessity I need to walk a fine line here as these are not yet production items (and may well change form by production time). Not only that but these are his creations and the timing and presentation of them is entirely his, as it should be.
But they span the range from compact to complex. There is a significant addition to the mouthpiece setup that I think will prove very popular. The more complex units will require lung power but look amazing. In short, they certainly aren’t resting on their laurels.
And to StoneMonkey and VapeXhale let me suggest that you lay in a hefty supply of what SM referred to as V2.0 (he showed me two versions) before you announce them as they will be extremely popular.
On a personal note I like to go camping and he assurred me that with the proper inverter using the EVO would be ok...unlike the Cloud.
Sorry if this is pretty vague, but I have no desire to steal his or their thunder. As a teaser I hope he won’t mind my mentioning that they have heard our musings about a portable device and......think VapeXhale quality and inventiveness.
As for the man himself he seems genuinely interested in the folks who use the Cloud/EVO, how they use it, and how they feel about it. All with an eye to make it an even better product.
And if it weren’t enough by itself that he has brought to market an amazing product he also loves dogs! Has three very friendly furry companions.
We're in good hands.
