The first new vaporizer to hit the market is the Aero a dual chamber full convection unit. Yup you read it right , a dual chamber!! Why two chambers? Not quite sure why they came up with this option but so far I am loving it. Fill both ovens before you step out of the house and your set for a great afternoon of pure flavourful vaping.

Ok enough talk about the dual chamber let’s get down to the unboxing and first impressions.(my unit was a pre-release so there has been some changes to the look of the box as well as some minor updates to the unit)

Un-Boxing

Upon looking at the box you can tell its a Focusvape product with its bright green writing as we seen in all there pre released vaporizers. Then when you open the box the Aero sits nicely in a plastic raised piece that looks a bit cheap. Then under this plastic piece you will find the typical accessories from usb cable, a loading funnel (love this) , cleaning brush , alcohol wipes and instructions .There will also offer a bubbler and wpa as accessories. I am hoping that Focusvape will add to its presentation on the final release.

*** Focusvape has contacted me and said the boxing has been update! Here are pictures of the new boxing. It is 100% improved , I really like what they did with the new packaging.

Product Description

Now to the part that is really important…….the vaporizer itself! Its black, shinny and man oh man it feel like quality once you hold it in your hands.You can tell that they put lots of engineering into this one. Yes it does have a familiar look but trust me its no Solo knock off!

The mouthpiece is pure zirconium and its very comfortable. When unscrewing the top part of the mouthpiece it then reveals a nice longer then expected airpath to insure cool vapour. The long airpath along with the zirconium mouthpiece you know this thing is going to push out some seriously smooth vapour! Then mouthpiece is in two pieces making for easy cleaning of that airpath hidden in there.

Also at the bottom of the unit there is a stir tool tightly tucked away . This is a great idea as with a convection you will definitely need to stir that bowl during a sesh.Thanks Focusvape I really love this little option. The stir tool is really well designed with a scoop shape making for a great loading tool as well.

Before using the unit

Enough talk about the build and looks let’s get down to using this new vaporizer! But before that you know the drill……Plug the unit in over night to get a proper first charge. Then you will want to do a couple burn offs at max temp to rid the unit of any unwanted oils left from manufacturing. I also take some Q-tips dipped in ISO and clean the oven, mouthpiece and the air path. Yeah it’s probably overkill but hell it makes me feel better knowing I did it.

Loading the ovens

Now that the unit is cleaned and fully charged. It’s time to get it loaded so we can see how it performs. A nice accessory they have included is a loading funnel, so just insert it on top of the oven to load your cannabis. Make sure not to over pack as this will affect its performance. From my testing a light pack almost as if you want or could add another scoop. Go ahead and repeat this as this unit has two ovens! Now that both are loaded lets get this session started.

Let’s start vaping

To turn the unit on you need to click the on/off button 3 times rapidly and the same if you would want to turn the unit off. Then it will automatically start heating up to the last temp.After dialing in the temp just wait and the unit will vibrate once its ready.  The heat up time takes around 40 seconds but I tend to hold off a a bit before taking that first hit.

Now this is a pure convection unit so ideally take nice long draws. This unit has an adjustable air flow but from experience fully open is best. Convection units tend to need lots of air to work properly so I leave mine wide open. The first hit is always my favorite on all vapes as its the best tasting IMO. As the heater gets warmed up more you will notice the vapour get thinker but the flavours stay nice and bold. The sesh time is set for 5 minutes so when it ends I recommend stirring the bowl and give it another sesh. The second sesh you will notice the vapour will be much thinner as the cannabis is getting spent.

Now that the first bowl is spent we can move on to the next one. All you need to do is twist the top ring firmly and that will switch the bowl. No harder than that! You are now ready to start another bowl , it’s that easy!

Final Thoughts 

After using this pre-release for a few weeks it quickly became a favourite but like everyone new units always get all the attention! 

So far the unit has met my needs, but would like a silicone sleeve to be included if not sold separately. The outer casing does get hot if you are going to vape two bowls in a row , but not has hot as the IQ. The biggest reason for the sleeve for me is for protection against the clombsyness of my stoner self! Cause with its all black body and somewhat shiny finish scratches will show up easily.

The spent cannabis in my testing did not have any crazy dark or charred bits. Seemed very even and properly spent getting a full extraction from the bowls loaded.

I would say Focusvape is on the right track ! The Aero should be a great unit to add to your collection if looking for a pure convection unit. 

**Little update**

The Aero will be released December 17, and to make things more interesting Focus-V are giving away 3 units the week before its release!! Make sure to check out the details on my Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/p/BrGqHebgt-4/?hl=en

Before ordering this vaporizer I was hesitant as the first version was not the best unit. I put the past aside and made the choice to order myself one from The Herb Cafe. Upon receiving the parcel in the mail I was quick to notice the small size and how nice the package was! First impressions count and Healthy Rips delivered on it.

Un Boxing

Like many vaporizers it comes with usual accessories: usb cable , dap/stir tool , instructions, a silicone cover for the unit , spare screens and silicone bands for the mouthpiece. On my order I had also picked up the WPA and the bent glass mouthpiece and I am very happy I did. The unit is very small , and it also feel very good in the hand. Its a quality built vape. The minute you hold it in your hands ,you realise they did not cut corners on this one.

 Like all new vaporizers I get first things first. I charge the battery overnight and then proceed to doing some burn offs at maximum temps to get rid of any manufacturing oils left behind.

Let’s get vaping

On the first burn off you quickly notice how fast this unit heats up! So getting really excited to get my first session going. When loading the bowl you will notice it is not the largest on the market and if you use the glass WPA or bent mouthpiece the size is even smaller, but do not let that influence its ability to get you medicated!

The display is nice and clean showing you the set temperature and the session countdown(2 minutes). I usually start at lower temps like 370  and then bump it up on the second cycle to 395 to finish off the bowl. Taste is really good at the lower temps and at higher settings the taste dissipates faster but you still get a couple very tasty rips before it degrades on taste. The unit works very well and is surprisingly very efficient for its size! At this time I would say the biggest negative is the shorter battery life. Not being a removable one you are constantly plugging the unit in to charge it. But small battery take less time to charge so I guess every negative can still have a positive side.

Optional Glass Mouthpiece and WPA

Ok lets now go more in details on the optional glass WPA and bent mouthpiece. This is where the Fury 2 excels in performance and taste, as the longer air path will deliver a way smoother , more flavorful vapour! The WPA is by far my favorite way to use with a bubbler as the vapour then become so smooth you can hardly feel it in the back of the throat. But when you are done with the bowl you will definitely be feeling its effects. The accessories are listed at around $21.99 and worth every penny.

Final Thoughts

This vaporizer produced by Healthy Rips is their second version and they have perfected it. If you have yet to try one or still on the edge in getting one, I highly suggest making that order today cause you will not regret it. The unit works very well straight out of the box but if you add the glass water pipe adapter and the bent glass mouthpiece the experience will be even better. Yes the Fury 2 works well as is but if your going to take it up in temps the short mouthpiece will deliver somewhat harsh vapour. But add that wpa or longer glass mouthpiece and the vapour delivered will be much smoother and enjoyable! These 2 add ons will not break the bank  ,take my word on it you will want these!

Healthy Rips has listened to the customers and has now released the Fierce , a bigger version of the Fury 2 with removable battery for longer uses !

The post The Fury 2 by Healthy Rips appeared first on Mike's Vaping Adventures.

The IQ’s full alloy body gives a very quality feel and ruggedness. Its sleek shape makes sure that it is a comfortable-in-the-hand unit. With a clean surface, accented by the Davinci brand and 51 led lights, the IQ does indeed stand out! The IQ is powered by a 18650 removable battery. The significant thing about having a removable battery is that it gives you the option of using multiple batteries which is great for a weekend of pure vaping pleasure. Let’s not forget that not only is this unit sexy and well built, but the IQ also has some of the most sophisticated technology in vaporizers out in the market today!

After spending a lengthy time checking out the IQ by Davinci, I finally received mine early 2018. My initial thought was that there must be something missing because the box was small. However, and much to my surprise, it was all in there; nicely packed in the little and admittedly beautiful black box. For me, presentation is key for the best first impression because (let’s not deny it) unboxing is all part of the wow factor. More especially when purchasing a premium priced vaporizer. Thanks to Davinci for the beautifully designed box, it made for the perfect unboxing experience!

Back to the unboxing of the IQ and its contents. Upon opening, you are presented with only the IQ tucked-in safely in a molded foam insert. It is only after you pull the ribbon-like tab that you then unveil the rest of the accessories placed underneath in separate mini boxes.

The contents of the box are:

Inside the box you will find a sticker, a colored instruction booklet with pictures, extended 10mm mouthpiece/water adapter, key-chain mini stash carry can, USB charging cable, key-chain stir stick holder and a bunch of alcohol wipes.

The IQ :

Like I always say once you purchase your IQ, get the battery in the charger and get it fully charged before you begin usage. Once the battery is fully charged you will want to do a couple of burnoffs at the highest temp. This will rid the IQ of any contaminants left behind from manufacturing.

To begin your first session, pack the bowl nice and somewhat tight since the IQ is a conduction vaporizer. First thing you will notice is that the chamber is significantly large! I daresay it’s one of the largest in the portable vaporizers category. Another thing you will notice about the IQ is the unique flavor chamber. This chamber allows for better vapor cooling. Davinci also claims that you can add whole bud pieces for even more flavor enhancements. I do not recommend it, however, as it gets pretty icky in there after multiple sessions. But it does allow for some great reclaim! The IQ comes with the flat mouthpiece already installed, but the 10mm extended one is my favorite. I find it to be more comfortable and smoother even if it is less discreet.

Davinci App:

This is another thing that makes the IQ stand out is its great APP! This is a must if you are one of those who like to customize their vape experience. The APP is very well designed and its Bluetooth technology is extremely good. I can simply turn on my IQ with the app from downstairs, so distance is not an issue for connecting with the app to the IQ!!! To turn the unit on/off, you’ll need to click the power button 5 times fast. The unit will also remember your last session temperature or ‘smart path’ used. The smart path is a very nice option and makes for a better vaping experience if you want to take full advantage of the large bowl.

Performance:

The IQ will give you crazy thick vapor, hit after hit, even as soon as the unit gets to temp. The flavor is a little muted after a few good hits like any other conduction but it will take way many more draws before you get the popcorn taste. The IQ will extract the bowl evenly, but a stir will ensure a better and flavorful session. Available for the IQ are glass spacers. I am yet to try these out but I’ve been informed that it eliminates the need to stir and it also enhances the flavor quite a bit!

The vapor of the IQ is dense and the smoothness from the flavor chamber is something you’ll absolutely love. The flavor chamber does what it is supposed to do, it gives you a cool vapor for a more enjoyable session even at higher temps.

Build Quality:

The IQ’s full alloy body and super sleek design does make for a very comfortable feel in the hand. Also, the unique 51 led lights make for a very impressive display like none other in the industry! The light intensity can be dimmed to be less pronounced. Another plus is that both mouthpieces are made of high quality ceramic zirconia. It also allows for pure flavors and helps to cool down the vapor. The alloy body does become warm to hold in the hand after multiple sessions but there are sleeves available at Delta 3 studios that will help with that small issue. If you ask me, when ice fishing or hiking in the winter, it IQ would be the perfect hand warmer while seshing. Davinci has since released their own sleeve which is a glove made of silicone and looks fantastic!

Over all thoughts:

I think Davinci hit it out of the park with this one! Everyone expected a convection unit but Davinci proved to us that conduction can be reinvented and taken to another level. I would still love to see Davinci bring out their own twist on a convection unit.

The only disappointment I had with the IQ was using the 10mm extended mouthpiece. When opening the top for a battery change or flavor chamber cleaning, the mouthpiece falls out incessantly, ending up on the floor. Davinci let me know that this is normal due to the weight of the mouthpiece, but I would love a solution to this very annoying issue.

My overall experience has been very enjoyable and the battery life is great. But if you’re buying this, I highly recommend getting a couple of extra 18650 batteries. With this, you will be good to vape for a whole week without having to recharge the unit. Another thing to consider purchasing would be a Nitecore charger as I do not recommend charging the battery in the unit. The Nitecore will drain and recharge the batteries properly and also ensure a safer process while doing so.

I highly recommend the IQ to anyone looking for a premium, well-built vaporizer. The IQ delivers in sophistication and performance. The IQ has to be one of the best-looking vaporizers on the market, and trust me it performs as good as it looks!

This unit will not disappoint.

Vape on!

Mike
