For plug in vapes I've been using the Herborizer exclusively since I bought it back in Feb. For the last week I've been using the Evo again, no plans to unplug it soon.
which are the differences between the two, i have multiple evo's, is it worth it for me to acquire a heroborizer also ?For plug in vapes I've been using the Herborizer exclusively since I bought it back in Feb. For the last week I've been using the Evo again, no plans to unplug it soon.
Imho Herborizer Ti is not much different from the FP. Both are a bit "stronger" than the Evo (imho).
. Still very good EVO vibes here., I like the EVO quiet 
. After a month break or so, I low temp dabbed Super Lemon Haze live resin again with the EVO 
. I also upped the amount a bit (with dubious judgement 
).... it was a big hit 
... hard on the lungs (and using a wet Precision Honeycomb hydratube 
). Milked glass and a dense cloud 
. Then, again came a huge THC wave (which high THC concentrates bring), almost like a punch to the face as some people reference 
. I was very high . I again found that strong THC high nicely calming on both the physical and mental sides. Different from flower, and nice in its own way. The dab was so strong it put me down for the night an hour or so later 
. Even with that larger (but still small) dab, the EVO setup and nail worked perfectly with no leakage into the bamboo. I'm still totally impressed with the dab flavors and efficiency (after I dialed in my methods and settings mentioned in older posts)... very clean flavors 
. No toastiness at all. Who's out there dabbing with the EVO? 
... I'm still vaping both ways, essentially low temp vaping flower dry and high temp vaping wet (as for dabs, I always vape it single draw low temp wet). Those are the best combinations for me. YMMV and share your favorite and experience. All this talk makes me think of a few of the last posts and talk here about stronger vaping... which makes me think as much about dry vaping as anything else. Dry vaping is definitely the best experience imo, harder on the lungs than wet vaping, but dry brings more punch and spectrum .
. It's great to just have the vape within arms reach and safe (no burn/fire hazard) while listening to music or watching TV/movies 
. I can sit it on the couch even. 
. I often can and do microdose with the EVO as well 
. It delivers pretty extensively and very consistently. I have a friend who smokes nearly a third of an ounce cannabis a week, he visits and vapes on the EVO enough that he's dialed in a routine he enjoys 
... and it brings the goods . He'll end up coughing somewhere over vaping the full ELB. And he vapes it dry. Over time now, he's currently settled in 3-4 temp steps, from 11:00 (~320 F temp estimate) to 2:00 or so (~400 F temp estimate). I always turn the EVO on when he visits, and he always takes it over smoking while here 
.
.. Another convert, haha. He does extract the ELB more than I do, with darker AVB. And him dry vaping is impressive, at least to me, as I have do my high temp fresh cannabis vaping wet.
. With some added dabbing from time to time if wanted. I'll do a few small ELBs myself while he's typically here as well (I stick in the 0.05 gram range or so... ~1/4 ELB), and the strains are usually switched up from ELB to ELB. Taken together, it becomes easy to compare and apparent when a batch of quality cannabis flower vapes particularly robustly compared to the others earlier ... with definitely more & denser vapor/clouds. I saw it last time he visited. It was two strain that stood out that night. One of my strong sativa strain batches, Viper, as well as a new strong indica batch of SFV OG Kush. You can really see denser and more vapor with the EVO (and most any vape) when you can get your hands on a particularly impressive batch of fresh cannabis. ....
You are cool in my mind for what’s it’s worth!Thx all. Well, I was definitely HAF when I wrote and posted that last stuff and massacred some grammar and flow, lol. Sorry about that.
It obviously was a great & impressive night last night with the EVO + good fresh cannabis. I take a weekly cannabis break, so I seem to keep a low tolerance, with big effects. Those batches/ELBs of Acapulco Gold and Strawberry Cough were from two of my best looking and newest freshest pick ups (still boveda mason jar storing as well). Additionally, I was enjoying some bourbon, tequila, etc.
With the likes in from the last post, let me add a little more to the story of my smoking friend and the EVO. Last time he was here and we started vaping, out of the blue he told me that he really has come to find that vaping indicas (and even strong indicas) with the EVO gives a much more heady, stimulatory and cerebral experience than from smoking. He likened it to vaping a sativa. It was feedback that pretty much mirrors my experience. I mentioned to him that I find starting a fresh ELB/bowl in a vape at low temps really contributes to that experience, and that if he wanted to mimic smoking more he could start vaping at high temps for more full profile extraction. He declined, then said he enjoys starting at low temps and getting that initial stimulating and cerebral experience with strong indicas, followed by temp stepping
On another note, my friend can plow through the cannabis as mentioned, and obviously has a high tolerance. So I'll usually give him 3-4 full ELBs, depending on how long he stays
Anybody here every try SFV OG Kush? It's a new strain for me and batch. And it's probably the best strong indica I've found yet. Count me impressed.
Vaping's a journey. There's lots to try and to explore. I'm back on the EVO today and feeling good. Enjoy your evening and have a great weekend everyone
Edit, apologies for any poor grammar, etc in this post... again; it's been and is a great Saturday night so far
For plug in vapes I've been using the Herborizer exclusively since I bought it back in Feb. For the last week I've been using the Evo again, no plans to unplug it soon.
I painted my 2 EVO unit’s!
My wife think’s I’m nut’s?
The best way to be ! Most wives think husbands are nuts , including mine .....
My apologies, why do you seek the 220v evo, and what is the standard instead?
Ah.... Thought there was a power difference and one is superior. Thanks!
. I'm one month away from two years of ownership and use 
. So far, it pretty much still has all been good, and I continue building out my knowledge base and experience with the EVO . Here's some more new feedback, information and knowledge to pay forward to the community. And I want to again thank everyone who's shared helpful knowledge and experience. Much appreciated.. As posted earlier, the EVO has a very strong heater and is excellent at extraction (the heater is rated higher than the Flowerpot). The EVO is also very flexible, allowing a user to dial in their own optimal vaping experience. Over the last few years here, at time we've discussed temp stepping, one-hitters (and settings) and extraction. Unsurprisingly, many EVO owners don't push extraction and temperatures too much, including me. Well, my friend, who still combusts, likes lots of extraction with his vaping 
. And obviously, the EVO can deliver. Here's a picture that's a good example showing the various ranges of cannabis extraction done from flower in the ELB over one night with my friend. On the left is my typical extraction with the EVO, I call it a medium brown color and it comes from two finishing six second draws at the ~2:30 clock position on the temp dial. As you can see, the cannabis is relatively intact and trichome structures remain visible. On the right side, things are extracted more. And on the top right side of the picture is a much more significant extraction, dark brown and transformed into much smaller and finer pieces. My friend vaped that, and it was at about the same 2:30 heater dial position... the difference being he took significantly more draws temp stepping to that point, and then at that point. And all the AVB in that picture came from the same grinder and was coarse grind fresh flower!
. My lungs can't take that. As mentioned before, I like to dry vape because it brings me more effects and a more full spectrum experience, but I can't do it comfortably at high temps. Do you dry vape at all @ShayWhiteGrow? Thx for sharing the video.
. And while it put him down for the rest of the evening, he drew hard enough that some of the liquified dab got into the EVO bamboo for the first time 
. Enough liquid concentrate got into the bamboo that the next morning, when I inspected the vape, I noticed there was some viscous dab residue at the exit of the bamboo on the bottom of the EVO 
. Take care, as stuff can happen when you're super high vaping . Anyway, a quick pressure test showed the bamboo was still fine and I ended up cleaning the bamboo with solution for the first time in my near two year ownership 
. I used the original supplied red plugs and filled the bamboo with hot PBW water. After some time shaking and soaking, I reupped it again with hot PBW water (3X total). Upon draining, a visual inspection revealed a bit of light residue remained near the bottom of the bamboo, so I used a long thin metal rod to scrape and make sure the material was loose and switched over to ISO and did a similar soak and shake for a bit (2X total). Upon further visual inspection, the bamboo glass was perfectly clean again; total success . Not too time consuming either, nor overly laborious (though you may get air bubbles in some bamboo chambers and need to add more cleaning liquid after sitting a little while). Enjoy dabbing with the EVO but take care... and if some residue gets into the bamboo (turn the heater off so the residue doesn't bake on and let it cool down before using any liquids), it can be cleaned with a bit of effort and the right materials.Hey @disruptxd, do you read this thread or only read responses to what you solicit? I ask because I've seen answers to your questions such as this one not much earlier in the thread. In my experience, at this point there's a lot more information in this thread on any given topic than in any solicited responses. And if you're only reading solicited responses to your questions, then imo you're only getting about 15% of the available information on any given topic. This forum and thread has excellent search functions that help to make it easy to find information... I highly recommend using that as much as possible. And if you can find the time to read back over this thread, even 5-10 minutes a day, it's interesting and definitely worth it (in my experience). Over my first months of ownership I slowly ready back in this thread, from both the beginning and end, and have gone through over 500-600 pages at this time. I hope that helps you find the info your looking for. Good luck.
... and a successful bamboo cleaning, plus suggestions for finding EVO info and showing an ELB after near two years use... (~900 bowls)
. Cheers everyone, and may you have an enjoyable Friday and vape experience.
I am not qualified to command, however the taste impressed my palate?TGIF! Hey everyone... hope ur enjoying this Friday and the EVO
I had my big combuster friend over again and we put the EVO through it's paces. Lots of ELBs of fresh cannabis flower and multiple VapeXnails of concentrates. It was great
This picture well shows how different ranges of extraction are available from vaping... and how the EVO is flexible and can be used to bring different results depending on personal wants and preferences. A number of quality vaporizers are capable of this too...
That picture also shows what a lot of people don't realize with regards to convection vaping and the EVO... that is, while temperature selection is an important component in extraction, so are the amount and length of draws in vaping. I'd recommend not getting too hung up on temperature settings alone when vaping for extraction, and instead look at the AVB to see where one is on the extraction spectrum. I'll add that while more full extraction is what it is, it's not necessarily a better thing (for everyone). Some people enjoy and want more full extraction when vaping, others less... see what you like more and enjoy that preference. Extracting less doesn't mean anything other than its extracting less; big deal... besides, it can provide an opportunity for tinctures, edibles, etc.
Here's another anecdote from that above picture. I do my high temp draws wet with the EVO, like that AVB on the left. OTOH, the dark brown AVB in the upper right of the picture, from my friend, was vaped dry with the Helio... count me impressed
Moving on, the concentrates brought the goods again for me and my friend with the EVO. For great flavors we go with low temp dabbing. It got to the point that when I gave him a third dab, it was a monster size

Your ELB cleaning mention inspired me to take another few current ELB pictures to show my experience. This is still the first ELB I stared using nearly two years ago. There has been over 900 cannabis loads put into this basket so far... and after the last weekly cleaning (hands off, six minutes long). The stuff you see on the bottom is the welding material on the basket.

Sorry for the long read.
TLDR - discussion on determining and dialing in extraction with the EVO, detailed my first experience with getting dabbing residue in the bamboo
It's EVO time again here soon
