@stressed, great to hear about the new EVO ; it's always worthy of celebration imo . Interesting to hear about the subtle differences , let us know how it goes. Interesting setup too. I'm not into tubes (though many are) and wonder how many owners here use tubes regularly with the EVO? Let us know with a post . I'm not surprised about the whistle with the new EVO but let us know if it disappears over time like my unit did ; it's actually harder to judge my draw speed now that it's silent . Glad to hear you're back on the EVO wagon .
@readyman, excellent news and congratulations . I remember seeing your earlier evape research in a number of threads and thought you were doing good due diligence ... and that you'd likely pick the vape that suits you best ! It's great to hear you are so satisfied with your purchase and choice. The EVO isn't the new sexy but it's one of the best premium vapes on the market . For hydratubes, the experience reported consistently is that the calyx is one of the least vapor conditioning hydratubes available (less smooth vapor and smaller hits) with a number of happy fans and owners. Owners have reported a difference between the Calyx and Precision hydratubes, and even between all three hydratube options... with the Precision Turbine giving the best flavor (least conditioning), the Precision Hydrabomb in the middle (mid flavor and mid conditioning) and the Precision Honeycomb offering the best conditioning (i.e., smoothest vapor and biggest hits, with the loss of some flavor). Then there is the even bigger Classic series hydratubes with even more conditioning (and less flavor). I can report that the Precision Honeycomb hydratube adds a very significant amount of conditioning compared to dry vapor (Helio) and is much smoother vapor on the draw and in the lungs. So many options, there are stacking EVO hydratube options, stand-alone EVO options (plus stacking), etc.
Check out DHgate for Chinese hydratube options for the EVO at very good prices . People report they're a step down in quality, but there are many happy buyers and owners at its price point. I'd like to get one the the near classic size Swiss Tree DHgate hydratube options to add to my collection. At 1/3 the price of the VapeXhale premium US glass it's very appealing .
Happy EVO Friday all . After another break during the week I'm in my typical Friday EVO swoon . I was tempted to break out of my microdosing routine and swing for the fences but I'm happy to report that cooler heads prevailed and I'm currently really enjoying a 1/5 ELB experience of fresh quality Strawberry Cough , potent . I didn't get as much vapor on this first session as I usually do. The EVO is so impressively consistent that I can notice these small variables in experience. It's a new nug with a pinch from the bottom so figures in some ways . Still, I'm having an impressive experience now multiple hours in and not long after finishing that ELB off at higher temps with the Precision Honeycomb hydratube wet . Same methods and temp step as described earlier. I'm a number of hours in now, and getting a fresh 1/6 ELB of Acapulco Gold lined up to roll into the rest of the evening .
Here's a question for you all, do you include sugar leaf? This second ELB was probably 1/6 volume and then I added a single sugar leaf more. That sugar leaf was significant in size but it's no cola quality or loaded trichomes material . I added it because I wanted a touch more product in the ELB but it's so difficult to pinch tiny quantities off a nug that the easiest and simplest thing to do is take a sugar leaf off . What are your thoughts ? I had a different question or two earlier I'd still like to hear feedback on too !
It's been a long busy week here. Aaaaand the EVO is hitting the right spot . Enjoy your Friday evening and the EVO .
Thanks you were right I bought the prescion graphite hydra tube WOW what a better smoother and longer draw than the Caylx This vape is the closest to a Bong rip that I have found temp number 3 oclock on the dial and RIP thanks again and have a GREAT DAY
