Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud EVO

I wonder if mine is too hot. If I turn it to 12 the entire nail is hot to the touch when I take it out (all the way to the lip). Is that how hot yours are getting? I've been turning mine to like 10 for shatter but after someone posted they crank it way up to get a stronger high I'm going to try that right now.

Couple days ago it was blinking green and not heating up. Then I just kept flipping it on and off and trying to reset the cord. Then it eventually started working but it got so hot there was some kind of electrical smell. I don't think I ever noticed that before or it never happened before or maybe it's just my imagination that it's a new smell? Anyway, since then it seems like the vape gets hotter than it used to at the same settings. I'm thinking of getting a heat gun so I can test how hot the bamboo is getting at the top. I don't remember it getting hot to the touch when I was at 12, but now it does.

(not exactly 12, actually, my notch is more like 11).

Regarding the heat shield debate, I learned from this thread to put the wrist bands at the top, and my neoprene heat shield (half height) over the top of it. This has always worked well for me, but perhaps putting even more air between the outer layer of neoprene and the heat from the body of the EVO as @covercash has shown will work even better! I don't have a full length heatshield to try, but think air insulation is a worthy consideration for future EVO heat shields.

-------

I received my EVO back from VapeXhale repair a few weeks ago (thanks Bill and the VapeXhale team for repairing and sending my EVO back free of charge).

Not sure if it's my imagination but the power cord receptacle looks slightly different, it has a lot of texture, and the power cable seems to come in and out easier now. Has anyone else ever noticed this after a repair?

My EVO runs a lot hotter now. I used to start an ELB at 11 to noon and get 3, 4, 5 pulls out of a basket.

Now I start at about 9 to enjoy those first terps and get 3 or 4 pulls.

A single pull at 12 o'clock is enough to get everything I want out of a bowl, and a second pull tastes quite toasty.

I think my unit must have got a reprogramming or upgraded firmware! Awesome. I'm looking forward to re learning this thing.

After having had my Cloud EVO for almost 6 months, I wanted to give my honest critique of this top-of-the-line product. I've never used any other high-quality stationary vaporizer for any length of time, but I did have a Pax before this and a Magic Flight Launch Box before that. The Cloud EVO is totally different.

The EVO is the best piece I have ever used, and my friends who've tried it have gone as far as to say that, when buds arw legalized, someone should just rent out rooms with EVOs in them for people to use. The only issue I ever have with this thing (and its not really an issue at all) is that it gets me too high, too quickly. So fast that I sometimes miss the ritual of sitting there puffing on something.

With this thing, I can turn the heat up to 2 o'clock and put in .05g, and (depending on the bud) that will give me 2-5 big hits. About one of these hits will get you comfortably stoned. Two or three and I'm gone.

I love mine and have never regretted buying it.

I wanted to try something different with my EVO today, was a bit bored, so I have two things I managed to try out.

I rigged it up to my Herbalaire pump, and made a big adapter chain. I did this once before, but with many less adapters and the glass mouthpiece I attached to the bag was really hot. This is more trouble than it's worth, and in general I don't like bags, but it was a nice change of pace. Basically destroyed an ELB in 2 bags. First bag was huge!! Had to keep hands on things as it was all a bit fragile. Also had the bag a bit too much up on the joint so it didn't seal well, had to hold it in place. Overall was fun, but like I said, bags aren't my....bag :lol:

I had this fritted disc ashcatcher, that I kind of hated, I never used it for anything, just too much drag in general for most of my vapes, but then I thought.....why not use it to rip hard with the EVO? 3 hits later on an ELB and it was finished, so smooth! 2nd hit though had me a bit wobbly :) Did eek a 4th out but much less. Was gonna sell it, but I think I may just keep it! Nice change of pace, and fun to watch while you hit!


Have a good weekend guys! I certainly will continue too!

So you tried bags?
Did someone give you $100,000,000 to try it?
Is it like eating dinner from a trash can?

Looks very scary to me!

My EVO is so tasty and quiet with a HYDRO-TUBE?

I ignore the whistle at times?

Hi, I've noticed alot of talk about the whistle and its probably been mentioned already but I'll put it out there anyway. I recently bought a 5 pack of the crystal vx nails and on the back of the pack it says if you hear your evo whistling you're pulling too aggressively.

I imagine the reason it has that warning with the VXNs is so you don't suck so hard the concentrate gets pulled up the sides of the nail, preventing the boiling and vaporization and possibly making a mess. With ELBs it's just a matter of the noise. Tubes like the HydraHoneycomb whistle quite a bit due to draw restriction while the Symbiartic Chandelier doesn't whistle at all. From what I hear something like the HydraBomb is somewhere in the middle.

:lol: honestly the bag tasted pretty good (just more trouble than necessary) but that ashcatcher robs all my weed of flavor! It's....strange, even used a little of some real tasty strain I've been saving, big flavor! Not with that fritted tho, tastes like basically nothing, too much diffusion but still cool to watch. Was ripping through ELBs like nobody's business last night :lol:

I was using the little screen lid to the elb with some cannabis and tried putting it on top of the oven. I wasn't successful in getting good hits and the regular mouthpiece. Then used the regular ELB half way filled with some Hindu Kush flowers with the Hydrobomb last night and was throughly medicated and ready for bed after about 5 minutes.

I still need to take the time to get to know the nail with concentrates. I'm happy with how it extracts the medicine from the flowers. A nighttime heavy hitter to help you to float off to sleep. I slept like a baby.

Edit
I used warm water with the Hydrobomb and the vapor was smooooth.

my Evo came in about 2 hours ago I put about an 8th of a bowl of pretty fair herb l was happy!Then I did the same with straight keef Omg wow never expected it to work so good with just keef.
The box was cool it comes in not sure about the coozy they even put a bag of smart popcorn in the box(lol)
It does seem to extract herb well
Haven't tried the nail but then again it's hard to get concentrates where I live

Where can I get those rubber bands?

After using this wonderful vape for the past week or two, I made this super simple "modification" to the neoprene heat sleeve that I feel increases usability and overall aesthetics of the device... I'd just post the image but apparently the mobile FC site won't let me upload pics from my phone so I put it on my blog until I can edit this post on an actual computer...

Anyone else doing this?
I'm glad you posted this. I've always been annoyed at the extra neoprene near the power switch of my evo, and it's always sliding up.
In other news, my hydratube broke when it tipped over on my desk. Guess I should have splurged on the stand but the fact it broke without a real fall makes me very frustrated. It broke where the neck and can join, clean break and glass is very thin for a joint. I ordered when the bundles went on sale in October, so I guess I got decent amount of use out of it. I recently got a replacement from dhgate after getting nowhere with vapexhale. I think the sunshinestore piece may be equal thickness to the hydrahoneycomb.

Can i use the vapexnail for straight keef or should i just use the basket ?The reason i ask is sometimes it seems to stick together in the basket before i'm done the first hit ?

@ataxian what mouthpiece extension is that?
I need to soak the mouth piece in a caustic high pH liquid to rid the logo.

My vape room looks like a overflow to a SMOKE SHOP with piles of parts for vaporizing.

This mouth piece is actually a vapor barrel from my VAPOLUTION 2.

I know I'm small potatoes so the glass blowers won't conform to my needs.

The FC Mouth-piece why did they not put a 18mm female instead of a mouth piece?

I love my EVO!

Large mouth pieces are very primitive!
BONG like mouth pieces are gross for my liking?

We have all developed differently in the Evolution Cycle!

I could be wrong?

Ugh planetvape and vapornation have still been sold out this entire week. I keep checking everyday and it sucks to see it out of stock.

I'm pretty sure mine is defective. I let it sit at 9/10 for over 45 minutes and instead of blinking green/red and shutting off it remained hot and *both* red and green lights were on steady on at the same time. So regardless of whether it was getting too hot at lower settings, it's definitely not acting like the way you guys are describing yours.

Love my Evo...
Hate the blinking lights and auto shutoff which I can't figure out...
Mine can have both green and red led on at the same time, sometimes flashing and sometimes not flashing, sometimes fast, sometimes slow...
My green led can flash rapidly too???
