My friend, the simple answer to your question is; ME, if not you, then it's me
All freaking day long. Oh, but you're right about one thing tho, the time is really now. Right Now!!
This 'Hybrid ' is really going to be the one above all,
yay Storz and Bickel, Durch Sprung Technic and all that!

... Boom Shiva !
so you can used forced airflow through the whip which was earlier used to fill the bags ?

@audiodelic IIRC using the whip the fan is disabled. This is the most interesting thing about this device imho, along with the 40 seconds warm up. The fact that now the digit is out of catalogue could mean this is just the new version of the digit. But it seems the heater is more than twice as powerful. Is it in the same league as the Sub/Flowerpot/Supreme?
If not, I already have a digit, all in all it’s my favorite vape and it’s still going too strong to justify a replacement worth 600€

Vapes R Great
The herps would prob be a lot cheaper to obtain I gather haha.
letter never sent

Really... I’ve never heard of this. A search on FC and Google returned nothing. I’m not about to take mine apart. Have you taken one apart yourself or have a source for this?

So is mine, its as strong as an Ox, but hopefully it's going into the Retirement Home, no sorry make that the Retirement Box up in the loft, along with Woody, (the log) and all those other old legends I've sent up there, (by Tuesday,) when the new 'Buzz Light-gear' show's up!
Yeah, the money side of it sure does stings, ouch!
But, you know what? I don't care, I really don't,
and come Tuesday,
I know for certain that I'm going to care even less.

Fortunately, an S&B employee in the California office caught this before publication. Another Volcano Hybrid marketing piece, lost in translation

Vaposhop added this vape to their shop list, priced 598€ as everywhere else.
Seems like the power cord is not part of the main body anymore, since it gets enlisted in “what’s in the box”. That’s what I think at least. XD
I’m really VASing on this a lot.
I’d love to use it as a “quasi on demand” powerful one hitter. As a Flowerpot.
But the fact they removed the digit from their vapes tells me this is just the new digit. As such it is unlikely that the experience will change a lot. Volcano has always been the milder of the vaporizers it can’t end up like a Sublimator successor as much as would have loved it.
I have every vaporizer they have made. Trying to find excuses not to instant buy this one as well.

I think you simply need our permission to go for it! So please buy and give us a detailed report.

@justcametomind - My metaphor mixer is stuck on pulse: Get off that fence and take the plunge. Voop or get off the pot? No, don't get off the pot, get off on pot
Received shipment confirmation, Hybrid arriving in two days. But, the reducer I ordered is not in stock at Oakland. Even large, well-run businesses can run into supply chain delays
Gonna loan it to woodworker for a while. He's relatively new to vaping, and his wife is not sold on long inhales. Interested in her feedback, and maybe this vape delivery system will convert her.
Also interested in what he comes up with for a custom Volcano cabinet/side table, something stealthy and pretty. I'll ask him to take pics and vids of the Hybrid. He's an ex-SEAL, so the mission will be completed. Don't think he will ever part with his vapcap, though

I'm excited that you took the plunge! How fun! I shall live vicariously through you, so please report.

Just got the update from UPS, the hybrid is on it's way and will be here for Wednesday, before the close of play, fortunately for me with the reducer. Anyway patience is a virtue.

Just bought a 2nd mighty but curious about this.
- New heater
- faster heat up time
- more conduction?
I wonder how good it is through the whip now?
I tried the volcano original previously through the whip and wasn't very impressed.
I assume it must work better now?
Quite keen to see some reviews on this.

It's here.....Yay (11:20 a.m. UK time)
So here's a brief tale of tape, thus far
The packaging is nice, very snazzy, you get four balloons one of which is the changeable easy valve, and also a whip, plus other accessories, i.e. brush filters, etc, I dived straight into the whip, fortunately, I had the reducer, so I went with that. For those who already have the Plenty, the sketch is similar, in terms of the pieces for the attachments and how they fit together.
Switching it on is different to the Volcano Digit, (please note that at the time of writing, I have not bothered with the Bluetooth stuff) first thing I noted, was the power cord is not attached, but when you attach it and plug it in, the Volcano lights up, not having read the manual, I was kinda wondering what next? Anyway, I just set (pressed) the Heat switch and it started to heat up, it kinda made me jump when it reached the required temp, cos the pump comes on for about a second as the notification sound. Anyway on to the business end, the Volcano Hybrid is exactly like the Plenty in terms of its draw resistance, Sweet!! I am impressed, I absolutely love it, and I have not even started, this is just first impressions, thus far,
The reducer load has rocked me, I would advise that if you are going to use the full bowl, either do it with company, or clear your schedule for the day, this is definitely for the eveing, or last thing at night if you are an insomniac. I was going to say with the whip, you might have an issue if you have weak lungs, but then I just tried the whip with a blast of the air..
Let's just say there is no issue, I just gave it a short blast and yeah the assist is real.
Oh and furthermore, just like the Plenty, you can take the herb holder off the Volcano in between tokes or sessions - whilst leaving the Volcano on, another thing to note, is that the timer feature is similar to the 'digit' in that the temps will start to fall after a period of time, unlike the classic. The swivel function on the whip is well thought out and works very well.
Having read some negativity about this appliance from people, (who ain't even got one), I would say go and get one, or at the very least, go and try one and then make (an informed) comment.
Indeed, I was always after the herbalizer because of the 'alleged' superior whip function, but I can say without hesitation that S & B have really nailed this one, proper!
I have not tried the balloon yet, (because I don't have to with a Volcano, as the balloon function is their bread and butter) but the whip function really is the business, this Volcano Hybrid is in my imho, the top of the Big league, The draw is similar to the Plenty, which is superior to the Mighty, it certainly is as good as the Vapexhale EVO, if not better, it rivals my Aromed 4 for quality of vapor, if not probably better, I am impressed and as I predicted, I don't care about the price.
This is the future, and the future is now, well at least it is, in my reality
Further update,
I've just loaded the big bowl with ABV and it was excellent, I whacked it up to 230'C and then hit it with a blast of hot air, and it certainly delivered. In addition to the obvious and instant benefits, I can see this saving me money already. As I found it makes the ABV taste nice, in addition to yielding a very nice vibe via the whip, something which was previously unacheivable with (either the digit or) the Plenty - due to its temperature limitations and lack of hot air.
I've also calibrated the Bluetooth now, hmm! I don't know if I will use it, but it's definitely handy to have, as for instance, you can get your phone to ring or play a tune to notify you when the Volcano Hybrid has reached the right temp, if you're elsewhere around your property.
(same for the Crafty, although, you'd probably have it with you anyway!)

That just happened...
I have taken mine apart. I threw it in the trash after seeing inside. Fiberglass is used extensively both as the air path and as insulation. The way it’s assembled it is problematic not to get a bit of insulation inside the already fiberglass air path.
Also the air path passes directly over two fans. Right over the electric motors.
A volcano uses a silicone and aluminum air path and a pump to move the air. The air never passes the mechanics of the pump. It uses a diaphragm and is completely isolated just like a fish aquarium pump.

Love the video, @ChooChooCharlie . I'm convinced. My pocketbook isn't, but my heart says "Yes". It's good to have passionate longing, so I'm going to live with the dream of "One day..."
