Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud

[Troi]

i purchased direct from your website. It came via usps but on one of the packaging slips it has dhl express label on it? when i saw the box i asked the post man "what the f*** happened to the box". He said it was dhl's fault.....

Please submit a support ticket (http://www.vapexhale.com/support) ticket and be sure to provide all your order information so this can be figured out.

Interesting read from a DHL VP:

"USPS proposed that private express carriers collect parcels from high-volume shippers — such as mail order houses, catalogues and Internet retailers — and deliver the packages as deep into the postal stream as possible. The carrier would pick up the parcels at origin, sort and deliver them to the local Post Offices, known as "Destination Delivery Units," or DDUs. From there, USPS could use its unmatched "last-mile" delivery network connecting 27,556 Post Offices to every home in the U.S."

I've recently seen a couple packages subcontracted from a carrier to the postal service. I don't know if this is done the other way around. Either way it raises questions re accountability.

. . . I am guessing that this Iso method is a good way to clean your glass tube once in a while, or is this only if absolutely necessary?

The Cloud's glass airway is a hollow tube, with 2 orifices fused inside which look like glass washers with a ~1/4" center hole (you can see one from each end). The heater and electronics are entirely outside the tube. Small dry debris that gets in is likely to be sucked up/dropped down the tube, larger dry debris might get lodged at an orifice. Unless foreign material is wet, sticky, melts, etc. it's unlikely it would adhere to the glass. Resin does accumulate inside the tube just below the joint; I clean that with iso/qtip. For the bottom glass section I expect that just keeping it clear with air will be sufficient, or maybe an occasional gentle wipe out with a soft paper towel. The middle section between the two orifices is not readily accessible.

Ok, well guys, I got my USPS package today :-).......I'm worried about the fragility of the ELB bowl socket / GonG joint. It was a bit tough to get my elb in, and I don't think I can get it out. Luckily, I can still pack the herbs like that? (I hope. If anyone advises against that let me know). Also, any tips to remove the ELB without destroying that glass beauty top of the VXC?

Congrats on getting your Cloud!

As for the GONG joint and the ELB. You could use your finger nails, or a credit card. It is normal for the new ELBs to be difficult to insert/remove, however they will become 'trained' over a short period of time. Some members suggest using a 18.8mm slide to train the ELBs, while others just use the cloud. As long as your careful, you shouldn't risk the gong joint when inserting/removing the ELB.

As others have suggested, I would visit the Epic Vape website, and pick up an EPik, (an accessory for the Epic Vape that works amazingly well to remove ELBs from the cloud, also doubles as a 'pokey/stir' tool, and tripples as a 'mini herb shredder.'

If you are determined to use the Cloud to train your ELBs against better reasoning, I found this helps. First, don't put the top on the screen. Insert the bottom up to the point it sticks, then remove it. If you can get it pretty far in on the first try, you can probably make the rest of the way by carefully inserting it up to the sticking point and removing it several times. DON'T FORCE IT. Each time you insert the screen it trains it a little bit more; be patient. You'll be using it soon enough...

I had a few that were easy to do like this, and a couple I won't try because they are too tight.

I was just wondering if debris gets sucked up inside the tube from under the Cloud when in use... I try to keep the under surface clear, but with grinding bud, you know little bits get away from you pretty easy. I also noticed a few crumbs falling into the top tube when loading the ELB, I am guessing that this Iso method is a good way to clean your glass tube once in a while, or is this only if absolutely necessary?

I only used this method because the valerian root particles inside my cloud were affecting the taste of my hits. Just using a q-tip should be fine for regular maintenance but the iso soak might be good to do maybe once every couple months or something to get the inner tube back to "brand new" condition and to get rid of any residual odor that always tends to build up in vapes.

Just make sure you the cloud is completely cool when you start, and be careful when pouring the isopropyl in. Also make sure the cloud is completely dry before you turn it back on afterwards!

I guess reports of new coulds being received with ELBs that don't fit, tells us VXL is still waiting for the "new" ones?

I'll certainly let you know this week. 6 ELBs on the way. I plan to "train them rapidly" in whatever method doesn't put my cloud at risk. I'll chuck them in my 18mm bubbler and get a little rough with at least one of them.

 

[thevapedcrusader]

high everybody?! Just wondering if you could use like a 1/2 inch hose clamp around the elb then tighten the sucker up to "train" it. Should keep it fairly round and wont break any glass! Just an idea, peace people,stay steamy!

I don't have other pieces to train the ELBs in. I was able to get it out with my finger nail. I'll use it again later, and leave the ELB in there like the instruction sheet says.

Good. Use a little veggie oil if you need to Mine just kind of resisted a little, then "snapped" into place. After that they were good to go in the Cloud

VXCFan, I have many questions. First, that VIDEO is AWESOME!
Second, how did you make that little holder wood thingy? I would love something like that.
Third, what are those additional tubes you are using? I would love to get those things.
Some would call this copying, but hey, you have an amazing setup :-).

I tried it a few weeks ago. the clamp didnt make a perfect circle. kinda started pinching it. fail.

Patiently awaiting new old elbs! They should be expecting them any day now from what I gather.

After a few weeks my everyday elb is still not trained. I can safely get it in about 70%, but more than that its too tight for my sanity

 

[Spiritwalker]

Nice clouds! Where on the dial and how full was the elb? Where did u get the glass toys?? I sure hope that more of that is coming from VXL!

My e-mail has just arrived (1.5 hours ago). It is 4 am here and I've woken up. I got a Well for me it doesn't mean anything right now. I preordered not very long ago - May 2012. These invites go light-speed now it seems. It was few days ago when they were inviting March and not so long ago when it was 2011. More, than 19 other people also got their e-mail simulaneously with me. The wait for international version is even harder now.

I was probably on that list as well. I pre-ordered sometime in April of 2012. I just got an invite to order as well. That means they will be finished going through their pre-orders list soon.

I received an email as well, I want to order but when I try to add the HydraCirc to my cart, there's no button to. I guess they're sold out, but I pre-ordered a showerdome so shouldn't those be in stock? I'm confused.

I just checked, and you seem to be correct. You can click on the notify me link however, and get an email notification when the HC is available. For the non evolver HT's, there will be a bit of a wait. I can't recall why, but SM or someone from VXL posted about it not too long back.

 

[Stu]

Nevermind....

 

[Spiritwalker]

Preorders are a thing of the past. NEW thread? lol

Also I have seen this asked many times before, but never a straight up answer from VXL except that "good things are coming".... but are the botanicals REAL, and will they be released?

Also any indication of when a stand alone Cloud will be available for purchase?

Vapexhale showerdomes haven't been in stock for quite some time. But now Evolver HydraCirc is in stock, you can get it. So is the tree, although it is label soldout. These "in stock" and "soldout" labels on pics seem to be off-date a lot. Maybe they've sent the email just hours before they filled their inventory so all receivers could get ready.

Hey guys I ordered on sat and this morning I recieved 8 emails from vapexhale saying this "Hello Marvin Carthon, Your Tracking Id is: AND Serial Number is: ". That's it all 8 emails. There is no tracking number or serial number. I recieved all the emails from 8:32am to 8:35am? Pretty weird, anyone else experience this? Should I contact them or just wait a little see if it gets sorted out?

Thx.

 

[Sir vapes a lot]

I got the same but there was only a taking number, no serial

 

[Marvc]
