Discontinued VapeXhale Cloud

Sith I care
Will the feet included with the limited tubes have any colour working to match? Early Bird and Fanatic feet could have a bit of colour around the rim to match their respective tube, and maybe the Fanatic ones could have a more intricate pattern (more reversals, etc), or a couple of opals added, or something?

I mainly just would like to see a bit of colour-coordination, though. A super fancy tube on a clear stand would seem a bit mis-matched.

Or on the other side, I'm going to be grateful for plain feet, and hope people don't get them to make shit more complex and miss release date D:

If any delays are gonna happen, they won't be because of a contract manufacturer (Swagger) adding some coloured glass to the rims of a couple hundred Hydrafeet that haven't even been made yet anyway. Any major unforseen delays are much more likely to be on the EVO side of production, which is a totally different line and entity. VXL have to worry about part quality and supply, set up in-house manufacturing, and get a couple hundred units of a new product out within two months or so. Any number of setbacks could crop up from many directions, any of which could delay production for an indeterminate period of time, as opposed to the very fixed time cost of adding a bit of extra decoration to a pre-determined number of accesories being made on an independant and pre-existing production line.

I figure every detail of the EVO is pretty-much set in stone by now, but the glass hasn't even been ordered as-yet, so unless they're sitting on inventory of 200+ clear Hydrafeet, incorporating small cosmetic changes pre-production on feet that currently don't even exist isn't that big a deal, and by the very nature of the product it must be hand-made, so such changes could easily be abandoned mid-run if did manage to cause any sort of significant delay, which I can't imagine they would.

As far as execution goes, right now all eyes are on the VXL camp. They have a bit of experience at this shit now, though, so fingers crossed things will start shipping out at some point during October, at least. I don't know how things will turn out, but I hope it's not much longer than that, as a recent Q failure has left me reduced to sipping on an Iolite, and it's just not doing the job very effectively.

So I was revaping my abv, like usual last night. I was about to take a hit as it was about twenty minutes and she was green. But as I picked it up she started blinking and reheating. Wtf? Whatever, so I waited.

Three minutes later or so, I ripped it as long as I could and that damn tube looked like it was full of whole milk! Sat the cloud down and low and behold it was between 4-5pm temperature wise.

I was basically numb and didnt want to move for the rest of the night:science::whoa:!! This thing is ridiculous

...Try it out IF your off the next day

It will be 3 prong. Since there is water on top, we needed to make sure it was grounded in case of accidental spillage.

All $500 and $1000 will come with a HydraFoot. Going forward (after the pre-order) when you build a Cloud package, you can select whether or not you want a HydraFoot with your package.

I think I covered most (if not all of the questions) - back to the MonkeyCave to do some WORK!

Um, wow.

You know, I priced the Cloud earlier in the Spring, and really, the Early Bird deal is an EXTREMELY good deal... and would be, still, even if we were getting a pre-made, regular, clear glass HT.

You know, SOME of the money that we contributed is supposed to help fund the startup. If everyone keeps bitching about how fancy our EVOs & tubes will be, and they cave, just how much of that funding is going to be left for actual business costs?

Yes, I think the $1k contributors should have a nicer set up, but really, I'm just glad I'm getting a Cloud EVO.

I sincerely appreciate every time Stonemonkey55 gives us updates, and every thing that he's rolled out, especially the stuff that he really didn't need to - and I really want his company to succeed. I'm hoping that what they realize from the funding campaign will be enough to make that happen.

I just got the referral contest hydratube in the mail today. Thanks so much SM55! :nod:

I was heading out to work at the time I opened it so I didn't get to look at it too closely, but I think it's a Vertigo 10 arm. Looks similar to what MGG got. Tube with ice pinches at the top, collection of lots of tree percs at the bottom.

I'll post pics later and if anyone can identify it for me I will give you one whole free like on your post. :freak:

It's a Vertigo 10 arm tree perc.

SM55 is the man for so many tube contests. I think he's given out 5 of them so far for EVO preparation (photoshop ad, referrals, & 3 photoshop slider image winners).

Cloudy...
My Cloud+ makes today 4 months in my hands. I'm vaping White Widow right now and enjoying this beast like the first day, working strong. I can't think of a better vape than this or how the EVO would be better than my Cloud+, but I'm glad to have been able to buy it and really wants October to arrive. Anything better than a Cloud must be amazing :smug:

That's the nicest Vertigo HT I've ever seen.:love:
I love that tall perc and splashguard+ice-pinches combination. Also the Vertigo label, I dislike the new ones. This one is classy and not so much eye-penetrating.
If I am getting one like this, you can prepare for the most awesome vid you've ever seen in recent 10 seconds - right after accepting stonemonkey as the one and only king of (v)apes.

EDIT:
Just got a glass delivery! No, calm down guys, its not a hydratube. That is probably still weks away. I've got a standard mouthpiece to extend my mouthpiece collection.

I wanted it to be as different as possible and it seems it is.
The new long one has less angle, its mouth ending is also more concave compared to pure convexity of the short one, which makes a different feel. So it is probably different in every possible way, which I like. Now it needs that new cobra one and its probably complete. Are there any other really different mouthpiece styles?

I am going to try how much better at colling this one is.
edit2: As expected.
Shorty: Slow-Slightly warm, Moderate-Warm, Hard-Hot, Hardest-HOT!!!
Standard: Slow-Ambient, Moderate-Slightly warm, Hard-Warm, Hardest-Hot
Also the short one takes faster to heat up, but same ammount of time to cool down.

Update from the Philadelphia Team:

Parts ordered and Molding initiated :). The team has been extremely busy with getting the supply Chain in line. In Parallel, ProfessorVape has been hard at work at setting up our manufacturing facility. As we progress over the next 2-4 weeks we hope to be able provide you guys video's/photos that will be fed to the public through our social media channels!

I can't express enough how amazing this journey has been on our side, were very excited to have every layer of this operation now in our control and day in and day out I'm amazed by the work that is accomplished by our small but dedicated team!

I also want to give out a final reminder that if your an Indigogo contributor and you have yet to check in with Ben, please email Ben@vapexhale.com by the end of the business day today (9 PM Pacific)! Or any choices that you may have been able to make will have to be defaulted to keep us on schedule!

On a second note, and this one is more difficult for me to announce because I really have enjoyed getting to know a TON of you over the last 2 years through customer service but. With the new responsibilities brought on by us bringing everything in house, SM has asked me to focus on Operational items, this leaves me on the phone and constantly communicating internally most of the day. VaporRing and "Ben" (who will be joining the forums soon) are respectfully taking lead on support going forward. Please utilize our support portal vs sending me a PM for support on urgent matters. As most of you know the main VapeXhale line is my direct office line. This is why its hard to get someone on that line (because I'm usually on the phone).

Once we have secured everything we needed to do around launch we will be implementing a 1-800 system that will allow us to better handle voice related inquires. Until then, the support portal (currently tracking @ 1.1 hours to first response) is the best way to reach us! Even if you wish to speak to a representative submitting a case with your contact information and best time to call back will produce the best results!

I hear yeah on Social Media exclusivity. We did a podcast with StoneMonkey last evening, the mad scientist is trying to sync audio tracks for the best quality. It will be available on a regular url / SoundCloud and no need to login to FB or anything. ;)

Thanks again to StonedMonkey for giving everyone a more candid look inside the new Cloud EVO. You can always spot people who are passionate about their work. He seemed genuine in delivering a product designed for the vape community. For anyone unfamiliar, he was the guy on the IndieGogo video.

:cheers:

Don't worry guys, when we say social media, this thread is included... we wouldn't leave you guys out... EVER

Props to the VRB crew, you guys should check out their website and their podcasts. I learned a lot about the ZenPen guys and I was pretty impressed with what they are doing in the ecig area. We were only scheduled for 45 minutes but we ended up chatting for about 90 minutes. Really cool guys with a passion for vapor, perfect for this community.

Just got my good old Cloud working like brand-new again (15 months of constant use). Discovered the bottom hole in the bamboo had gotten clogged. Reamed it with a super-thin paper clip, and presto, it pulls like the day I got it. Still can't wait for the EVO though.
