Got to finally try out the new EVO last night...and overall it is quite impressive.
Filled 2 ELB's a little less than half full with a 50/50 mix of PlushBerry & Cheese Candy...
First off...damn that thing is light next to my old ticker!
Okay...now that I have that out of the way...I fired up the EVO, set it to 3 o'clock, then when green, dialed back to 10. I mainly use an OG Evolver HydraCirc for my HT. Set that on top and took one of my normal pulls. Lot of whistling going on...not something I am used to with the OG unit. I started to draw faster and the whistle subsided. On exhale, just the slightest of wisps...but the flavor is incredible! Better than the OG.
Dialed it up to 11 for the next hit. A few more wisps...still the great flavor.
Went to 12 & started to get thin clouds...still the flavor is great...there seems to be more extraction with the EVO & the flavors are not only more pronounced, but there are a few more subtle flavors I have not experienced before with these two strains...I like!
Moved up to 1 & then 2 on the dial to finish cashing out the ELB. LOTS of vapor at 1 and especially at 2 o'clock. Grabbed the other ELB and started at 12 & did the finish at 3 this time. Wow...was I blasted!
So...to sum up this first use mini-review...
There is nothing I don't like about the EVO...so far...
It seems to extract better
The flavors are more pronounced with additional subtle flavors
It is lighter than my OG ticker
I definitely got my ass kicked more than with the ticker! It felt almost like a session feels
when I add a little blond hash to the mix on occasion...very nice!
Things to get used to...
The lightness of the unit
The "damn" whistle...though with a stronger pull, it disappears
The "slightly" more restrictive pull
Obviously, more experiments need to be run...I will update in the days ahead.
GREAT job SM & the gang...love this thing. Hardest part will be relegating the OG ticker to backup.
