“Great, small, premium-feeling device. This is a great pick for flavor chasers, and folks who want to savor the experience. It isn't the ticket, IMO, for a quick, discrete extraction, like a TM2 will do, as the vape takes longer to cash a bowl as compared to a Dynavap or the TM2.
That said, it *is* a wonderfully small device, with the ability to swap 18650 batteries on the go. The form factor is wonderful, and my device has performed flawlessly thus far (2 weeks or so).
The IQC does get very warm/mildly hot if you run back to back 430F sessions for 8 minutes (when the device turns off, and you need to bump the power button 5x to restart), but the heat doesn't seem to heat soak the battery when this happens, (I pulled the battery after a couple of long sessions, and it wasn't nearly as warm as the case of the DaVinci.
One tip: Since this vape doesn't require high amp output batteries,(10 amp) I bought a few 3500 mah molicel batteries online. They output the same power as the OEM that ships with the device, but hold more power for a longer duration.”
“The IQC replaced by original IQ. It's very similar externally. I guess the vapor path has been improved. The biggest change is in the add-on stainless steel capsules (which would also work in the IQ). With the capsules, there is less waste of herb and much less to clean up.
All in all, the IQC is a great vaporizer, with several heating profiles to accomodate those who vape for flavor and those who vape for gigantic clouds. Construction seems very durable and the vaporizer while hot to hold, is not as hot as its predecessor.”
