Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud

[Cannabinaut]

My VXC early version is still working too and still make that tickling annoying sound....alas

Reading qome of the posts here I wonder if some of you guys tried an LSV to compare ?
(If I remember well you had an LSV IamKrazy2)

Because eventhough I really like the Cloud, I barely use it lately, actually it's at a FC member's place for when I visit.
YES, it gives good and uge hits if you want.
Maybe THE only vape that would allow a one hit or two hits max with a big load (there is the Supreme Vape though)...so I understand why you can compare with dabing in some extension.

But come on, taste wise and ease of use wise, imHe the LSV gives as good and maybe "better" results.
Ok, there is a slight learning curve to take the most out of it, but it's so much easier to handle.
Take a hit, put your bong and vaporizer down.
Not, take a hit, put your bong down, take the herb chamber out, then put your vape down.

Also there is less conduction because the WPA is in glass,there is only a screen, so the flavor stays longer.
Meaning that I can get more tasty clouds with my LSV than with my Cloud.

When the Cloud is at home I use it to take a one or two hit load, but mainly, I use the LSV because I want to conserve and have more puffs and flavor on a given amount. And you can get good size clouds with it, believe me

What temp are you using your Cloud at and how much are you filling your ELB? I think the Cloud is capable of what you are looking for if you fill your ELB to only 10-15% and have your temperature around 10:30.

interesting comparison, i was really debating between the two for use with water. Price wise theres no comparison, but does the lsv have the software to keep the temp constant throughout the hit? Thats one of the things I don't like about the dbv and makes it difficult to take quick back to back hits without manually turning the temp up.

Clearly the LSV has not the same heat retention capacity, which means, begin with a soft draw before drawing more natural.
The other small risk is combustion if you don't know your vape and put it at full blast 5min and start hiting slowly. Like an SSV and some other vapes.
Ime I only combusted twice in 2 years, at the beginning. But the VXC can go there too almost.

At the end this heat retention thing is really not an issue once you know how to use it. And when you come from smoke bonging, slow then harder draw is what you are use to when you light up your bowl to do it in one hit. The LSV mimicks that and there is the WPA lifting part wich is another mimick and feeling that I like as for me smoking a bong always meant ripping it in one hit.
And there, is the thing, if you are looking for a one hitter the LSV is not able to it without sub combustion or almost, that's why I like the Cloud actually, it's a perfect one hitter.

At "equal" temp the hits are a little little more airy with the LSV but that and the all glass bowl is what makes the difference I think

Maybe if I had free meds I will only take the Cloud for its huge hits, but that also mean weedhog.

And I like to watch at the herb changing color when hitting with the LSV, thing that you can't do with the Cloud.

Hard to choose...better to have both

Have you tried using less herb in your loads? For me, I have noticed that I still get huge hits and use less than I used to with my other vaporizers. Herb is pricey around my area, so I needed a device that would stretch my supply. The cloud has not only stretched my supply, but it has saved me money I would have spent on other vapes.

Maybe THE only vape that would allow a one hit or two hits max with a big load (there is the Supreme Vape though)...so I understand why you can compare with dabing in some extension.

On my clouds highest temp with a fully loaded ELB, I can produce around 6 HUGE hits. I think that I read one of the mods got around 12 hits with each elb. How are you only getting 2?

Just a thought to try and help. I would suggest creating a sensible, for your needs, pattern with your cannabis use if your want to conserve. Random load size can be very wasteful. IME the cloud can be used as a ass-kicking machine, or a ever surprising conserver. Choice is yours. Haven't used an lsv, so cant say anything about that.

I'm not interested in buying them, but those feet are REALLY cool, Vaplexus. The no-slip and bottom clearance would be a welcome improvement. I love that with 3d printing tech you can design and manufacture your own accessories. It blows my mind. I'd love to see more of your personal creations.

Here's an idea for you to chew on: I was thinking about something with four similar feet, but for the top of the Cloud, exceeding the height of the gong joint to protect it and allow the Cloud to stand on its head. People using
the Cloud with a bubbler or tube can stand it upside-down on their desk/table and don't have to flip it each time they put it on/take it off of their bubbler. Can you try to design something like that? Again, I'm not soliciting, just curious what is possible with this technology! I don't think that's against the rules.

Also, where did the pictures go? Did you remove them?

Just as an unbiased FYI, and only because you asked Vaplexus was banned by the moderators. He won't be posting here anymore.

Unless he told you that he wouldn't, there's no reason he can't return after his ban expires.

In fact, he did tell me he wouldn't, otherwise I would never have taken it upon myself to say such a thing.

 

[Stu]

That's really too bad. I enjoyed seeing the things that vaplexus was working on. That 3-D printer is really fascinating to me. Hopefully he changes his mind and continues to share his creative "prints".

 

[Purpl3_Haz3]

IMO I think it hits me harder, simply because I am getting so much vapor packed into one hit. Sometimes I jokingly say the cloud raped my lungs

'Vape-Rape?'

because it's easy to pull a huge hit and not realize how full your lungs are getting until you clear it. It's the only vaporizer I've used that I can compare to the feeling of taking a dab from one hit.

There have definitely been a couple times that I've taken a hit from the Cloud, and received 'dab-like' results, such as the full ELB during the 'efficiency test' I did

I used to buy a new vape every couple of months, always searching the next best thing. With the vxc, I stopped looking. Stil might get another volcano, it is a really easy way t vape in groups, and I wouldn't have to put one of my vxc's on the line. I was very interested in the oracle until it appeared they went out of business. Always tempted to get more glass, but if I'm vaping herb my vxc and solo will get me through anyting but balloon or bag use.

I agree with this, a lot. I felt like my VAS transformed into GAS, with the purchase of the Cloud. I no longer find myself shopping for vapes...if anything, I notice that I need to keep up on the new ones more now, as I'm content enough with the Cloud to just not think about other vapes. Like you mentioned though, a bag vape for group use would definitely be a load off of the mind. I've not used the Cloud yet with more than 3 people at a time. Not saying that I wouldn't, but I can imagine I would be a bundle of nerves, not getting effectively medicated, worrying.

On my clouds highest temp with a fully loaded ELB, I can produce around 6 HUGE hits. I think that I read one of the mods got around 12 hits with each elb. How are you only getting 2?

There are a couple variables to consider. How 'full' you consider a full, ELB. Some people stuff them, some sprinkle/let it pack naturally, and others use the ELB to scoop up flowers. Also, your definition of a 'hit' may vary, from theirs. So, if they are packing their ELB less full than you are, and/or are taking larger hits, they could easily reduce the amount of hits it takes to vape that amount of flower.

That's really too bad. I enjoyed seeing the things that vaplexus was working on. That 3-D printer is really fascinating to me. Hopefully he changes his mind and continues to share his creative "prints".

I'd be surprised to see him come back here. Wouldn't blame him either

 

[charliedontsurf]

I hope he comes back, I've enjoyed his posts and the Cloud accessories looked very promising.

 

[elmomuzz]

I wouldn't come back if I were him. He got treated very poorly...

Like it or not, this forum has rules, and everyone here agreed to them when they registered. Here is one of them:

• No selling or soliciting items on the forum. The only exception is the Classifieds section, which is the only place on the forum you may mention items you may have for sale or trade. This includes messages in profiles, signatures, etc.

Like all of our rules, this exists for a reason. Also keep in mind that there is more than one side to a story, and believe me that is the case here. Making assumptions and accusations based on a limited amount of information is ignorant. There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes, with staff putting in a great deal of effort to keep this forum fun, informative, and manageable.

Here's another rule which exists for a reason and which we take seriously:

• Public discussions of staff decisions are not permitted on the site. If you have any concerns or queries relating to a staff decision please take it up in private with a staff member.

Disrespecting the staff and our efforts as was done above is a real slap in the face. Do you like it when people disrespect you for doing your job? Please don't be ignorant. To the staff or to the rules.

Any further off-topic posts regarding this matter will earn the author an infraction point.

Well it is Friday morning and I am glad my terribad work week is soon to close.

When I get home tonight I am cleaning my FC bubbler really good and packing 4 ELB's in anticipation of a Cloudy evening!

I think this is a great idea. It would also lessen the stress on the power cord itself. I think it would be very easy for the vxc crew to (re)design the soon-to-be released cloud sleeve and incorporate some way for it to stand the vxc upside-down.

 

[Lou]

That wouldn't work for any tube/bubbler with a dewarr style joint, unless the can diameter was smaller than the cloud unit. Not sure even the ht would work with that.

It also would put the bowl under the heat, instead of above it, reducing whatever slow cook there might be.

Not if it was a seperate stand you put the cloud into.

I wonder how plugs will be in international versions. In US, it is pretty much standardized, but in EU there are several different incompatible plugs in different countries. So there would be a model for each country.

I think it would be better if the Cloud was powered by detachable power cord (female for the right end being on the Cloud). Also cord breakage would also be much cheaper and easier to fix. Just buy new power cord.

What do you mean? I think only the UK has different plugs.

 

[Vaporlover]

Or you could use an adapter like you would for other products.

 

[newVaper420]

So, I've been experimenting with my Cloud.

I still can't figure out why I need to turn it off and on twice before it starts heating. It does the 1 hour shut off, two times before I get it to start. It's not a problem, just a nuisance.

However, I've been messing with the load sizes like people say. I usually pack a .2 ELB. Today i split it to two .1 ELBs. I could not get the hits I get with my .2 ELB, and I could not get it as dark as I can when it's filled to .2 ELB. So I'm not sure what the magical secret is. Do I need to increase temp for smaller loads?

Thanks.

German plug, i think type F.
wouldn't fit:
Type E.
Because of grounding pin being different.

But there is also this plug, that can fit both. Don't know if there are more types.

Never seen the second one but i bet it does exactly the same as the first, that pin is probably the ground.
