It looks to be mostly conduction since it doesn't seem to have much of a heated airpath (so no "hot air").
In the world of portable units, this one looks surprisingly well designed. I especially like the completely removable SS airpath. VERY nice feature. SS is very safe, very cleanable (just drop it in ISO), and non-reactive. It will also help cool the vapor. Looking at the design, it seems someone out there could create a glass replacement for the glass lovers.
The bowl looks enormous - maybe 2-3 times bigger than the NO2. If it can vape that much evenly and without stirring (like the NO2 and Rise), it's a big bonus.
It also appears to be able to do concentrates - and that would be a first for Vapir (the NO2 would get clogged, and the Rise just isn't hot enough). So that also means (hopefully) that the bowl would not leak concentrate onto the heater. It'll be interesting to see how well it actually handles it since, as we all know, a lot of "herb" vapes say that can do concentrates, but rarely do it well.
The airpath brush also acting as a cover is a neat idea.
4 temps - 350, 365, 380, 390 (IMHO, 390 doesn't seem not high enough for concentrates)
(last in the vid he said setting 3 was "385")
He used CDB oil in the vid, not sure if that has a lower vape temp, but it seems low for wax or shatter.
The biggest con I see is that it's not very discrete - I don't know what it looks like, but it's not a pen or a phone or a flask - it looks like a vape with big buttons and bright led's. Certainly small enough for your pocket, but not something you'd likely whip out in public (at least in most states). Overall, it's not that stylish compared to, let's say, the Pax 2.
I'd have to see more reviews before I'd shell out $259, and to be perfectly honest, it "feels" like it's overpriced. Before I knew the price, based on the pics and review, I was thinking $175.
