I didn't realise you said "peanuts". Oops.
Please accept my apologies but I'm not overly keen on sharing too much info that can ID me, for several reasons.
The Weecke C is what I bought off eBay and that's what I have next to me charging now. It wasn't listed properly and I didn't find it through Weecke. I paid roughly $120 for the FM and $70 for this. I'll post a review of sorts after testing. Initial impressions are that its smaller than the FM, the chamber is relatively huge and I'm a little concerned about the plastic plug at the base being so close to the heat source. It's definitely not just a FM knockoff. Cleaning looks easy - just unplug the chamber and it falls through. It comes with a brush and poker that fit the well well.

Raistlin: well well, Dude Puff it up, and tell us the magic!
Not fishing for anyone's privacy, just wanted to know the source of your C vapor as I ran into invisible walls with their listing on DHGate & EBay.png.
A bit pricey, however, from my side of the rock ( since my 5s was some 60 U$, mailed by AVD in Oakland, Cali ). Eye candy, tho.
Oh, as noted by Max:
"'time test' between the FM V5.0 (3 temp model) and this C Vapor might be interesting."

Check my post history. The link is my first post. It was a different thread.
I've tested it. It's got some pro's and con's.
Pro's - chamber size, cleaning, variable temp, battery readout, temp readout of heating, small overall size, if packed right can get some big vapour
Con's - battery life, don't think it is a pass through battery, no chamber light
The rubber plug on the bottom doesn't seem to get warm which is good but I worry some herb at the bottom of the chamber isn't getting used (although AVB evidence suggests there is nothing to worry about).
The jury is still out. I will test more later and post back.

Congrats, Dude.
You are the very 1st one to have the new kid on the block, & to report on its pro/cons.
At that price point even I can afford one, although I think I will wait for halftime, seeing the bat
cap is 1/2 that of the FM. Plus, Version 2 seems 2B emerging on the marketplace.
We (I) would appreciate further reports on the unit, as you are the only one in the vapor community here to
have one.
As the Brits are fond of saying, " Carry on!".

Looks like the C-Vapor is not available anywhere on-line yet for retail purchase. 'Samples' are available from Weecke though, for a price. I was quoted $50 plus $34.50 for shipping, which is about the same price I got from Smiss for the 3 temp Flowermate, which is why I decided to wait on that one (Authorizedvaporizerdealer.com delivered a great deal in short order due to their 'blue overstock sale'). Since I sure don't need another pocket vape, $84.50 doesn't tempt me.
I used rose@weecke.com to contact, and the price quote came from sales manager Len.

I'm pretty good at finding products that are available on-line, and I struck out with this model. I saw that you linked to one on Aussie eBay, but due to shipping costs that wouldn't really be considered retail sale for US buyers, and the linked auction was labeled as shipping to Aus only anyway. Also interesting that the auction showed neither the manuf. nor model name.
You can only find it there by searching 'Vaporizer dry herb combustion'. Searching 'Weecke C-Vapor' turns up nothing. But if you live in Australia you can get one for $70.

C-Vapor finally showed up on Alibaba.com. Minimum order is 20 units. I expect it'll be showing up on eBay pretty soon.

Honestly I feel a little underwhelmed by it. I feel like the bigger chamber doesn't prolong sessions. The variable temperatures doesn't add any more vaping time than the FM V5. Clouds are usually no better, mostly worse. I can't seem to find a consistent packing method - sometimes there is no resistance and other times I might as we'll be drawing concrete through a straw. Cleaning is great. So quick and effective - best part of the design.
I think this will be my spare, and hopefully soon a spare for my spare. I would value this slightly better than a dry herb pen because at least this still only vaporises even at max temp rather than combusts like so many low price capes. It's not quite the value for money gem the FM is. I've not used anything better than the FM in my limited experience so I can't compare it to a Solo or PnP.

I don't think I gave enough info regarding the build quality. Basically it looks like it's worth more than I paid. The housing is tough and you'd never know that the temperature readout was on the top until it's on.
The heat up time is fast too.

sorry for the late feedback guys. I have it here since a while, but had to talk to the manufacturer first, before I share my first impressions here. There was a funky smell coming from my unit, which wasn't the typical robotfart smell. Now, I've found out they have tested my unit before with a real cigarette inside, as already expected.
That explains the smell very well, as I have experienced the same with the herbstick before.
The herb chamber is sealed from the electronics, which is very positive, but as @Raistlin already mentioned, the bottom of the herb chamber is made of plastic and I'm really not comfortable with having any plastic parts where the heat comes from. This is a no-go, although the plastic plug doesn't seem to get hot at least. However, I will try to modify my unit and put a screen inside the bottom and pull out the plug entirely. If that works, the C-Vapor could be a fine vaporizer, since it is very small (almost the goboof alfa size). They definitely have the potential to build a good vape with the right knowledge, but this one was obviously build for real cigarettes and not for loose leafs.

You Raistlin have been quite quiet since your last post. Any news from ( OZ )?
Was it worth it? Are you going with the current, getting the newer version, or is it further down the river of vapor products for you, said I looking at my rather thin wallet.
The vapor market is exploding with new products daily, it seems.
All smoke, and mirrors? A pipe dream, for me.

I haven't had much chance to use it lately. I am getting more used to the little nuances in timing, packing and the temperatures. This will still remain my spare only. It's not a purchase I regret but rather a purchase I probably didn't need to make.
As Mr Weed mentioned, the vaporizer can be used for cigarettes. I don't smoke tobacco so I am basing this on the manufacturer's information and the obvious design. If that is what you want to do then it might be the best vaporizer out there for that.
I'm taking the plunge on a new FM 8 with both excitement and trepidation. In the meantime I've been in contact with the Weecke C manufacturers and will be giving them a few free design ideas since they asked. They get free advice and I get to maybe see some of my ideas out there.
