“Pros:
Great (even impressive) design and manufacturing quality. Well-written user manual and very good packaging. Battery is recharged pretty quickly if charged from an AC outlet. Have not tried doing so from a USB port on a laptop or other device. Very hard (maybe impossible) to vape at too hot a temp. Plan to try adding a bit of live resin to the dry herb chamber to see if that helps it produce more robust clouds of vapor.
I have two other induction powered vaporizers that were much more expensive than the Hydrology9. The other two are the Loto Labs Lux and Dr. Dabber's Switch. They don't work well enough to be used since days after they were bought. The Hydrology9 is very portable and is easy to use and is the best dry herb induction vaporizer of the three.
Cons:
Herb chamber is about the right size for a beginner or casual user. If you vape daily or want to share, the chamber is too small. Battery lasts for a several uses, which, combined with the small size of the herb chamber is what will keep the Hydrology9 for use as a backup to my AC powered vaporizer.”
“Smoothest ever! For old folks, this is the best available.
The one thing that would make it even more perfect is an attachment that fits the top with a tube turned about 45 degrees from the top. If you are in a recliner this would avoid a tipped unit and eliminate water carryover.”
