Thanks! Unless you have the air blowing around in your freezer, I'd say it takes about 15 mins for the material in the glass to freeze. I like to shove it in the ice box. It then stays frozen for up to 20 minutes, depending on how long it was left to freeze in the first place. Usually I front load my sessions, using the Evo like a whip vape for a few little tasty hits until I take a big hit and clear. Until you reach the highest temps on the knob (past 80% I'd say), the chiller really works on cooling the hits down so that you can hold them as long as you want with no lung or throat irritation. The air is nicely cooled without being TOO cold and irritating. I can't provide a comparison since this is really my first water-focused vape setup (my previous ice experience was a RooR Lil' Sista icemaster) but it is very easy to use, fits snugly between the other two pieces and definitely keeps my hits cool in the time period I use it for. It comes with a glass mouthpiece if you want to bypass the water entirely and just get more cooled flavor. After my initial hits I like to just pop it back in the freezer until I'm going to use it again. I do recommend wiping the joints out real quick before putting in the freezer if there is a lot of water in there from the thaw. Just stops there from being any tiny ice blockages in the joint that keep you from stacking easily.
Great review of the new chiller. I'm really tempted, but budget-constrained and have been sorta holding out hopes for the new incycler coming available again. So many options, so little time/money . . .
