Hi
@Alexis!
The Honest quad desk lighter requires two hands to operate and twirl a Vapcap. The ignition button must remain manually depressed to keep the flame. Alas, there is no locking feature.
Hey Squiby, okay thanks a lot for confriming that. I think shall have to give it a miss then but glad it works well for you.
I made an interesting discovery yesterday. My damned Woodscents had me misplace my cap, it does that the sly fox, lures me into (reluctantly) taking my shoes off each time, making it all too easy for them to slide out of sight under the bed lol!
So I used an unused one from a new unused 2018 M I which won and have always planned to throw in with my next vape sale.
Anyway, with this new (but old) cap, its a slightly looser fit, and it performs radically differently.
It has a more pronounced double click. It clicks in the same amount of time.
But...the cool down click takes forever. Like 3 times as long or more, heating exactly the same way as normal.
Usually it is virtually as I finish my inhale and clear that I hear the click on my old cap.
It has always matched my draw lenght almost perfectly, so that I am inhaling from click to click, vapor just dropping off as the click is imminent.
With the new cap, I am long finished my full exhalation and then often waiting some, for that cool down click. Its almost a minute or well over on some draws.
The hits are much bigger too. Several times on my 2nd hit I had to pull out urgently half way through, choking. Almost sure I had combusted but no.
Much faster and fuller extraction though, more consistently in less cycles. No need to heat aggressively and with precise aim to get those bigger hits.
Just wanted to report that anyway. Huge performance difference between the 2 caps, way more than I ever expected. The cap is a bit looser. It clearly builds more heat by the click, but to a greater degree- it maintains the heat at more of a steady, constant level for much longer.
My older cap would lose that heat rapidly towards the end of a draw, struggling to keep up with my inhalation, which literally sucks the heat out of the cap.
This new cap- well there just is no sucking the heat out of this thing, not even if your name is Dyson!
Im wondering if there is substantially less conduction taking place between the cap and the tip due to a looser fit, less heat transference to the Ti and the load, and simultaneously a greater element of convection?
It makes some sense at least, but Im sure there are some other factors too. The clicker itself will be different.
So that was my discovery which Im sure many of you have already made long ago.
Changing the cap can result in substsntial performance differences.
