“I've had my IQC for a month now. It's my weekender device in that with its large chamber I can be out and about without needing to hassle with refilling. Seems very solid and feels great in my hand. Heats up to 350 F in 60 seconds and to 405 in 75 seconds. Davinci customer support -- they are responsive if you give them a few days -- told me my unit is working as expected. The company's advertised 30-second heat-up time is for an empty chamber. One star deducted for advertising a heat-up time based on an empty chamber. From what I think I'm finding (caveat that I'm new to vapes) other manufacturers advertise heat-up time ranges that reflect real-world usage.
For me, starting a session at 330 F gives little vapor, fantastic flavor, and good-enough effects. As the flavor dissipates, I step up the temp which results in more vapor and increased effects. Around 400 my throat starts getting irritated from the heat.
Quibble: The stir tool is located on the opposite end of the chamber that holds the herb. I get the tool is needed to remove the flavor chamber, but won't most people use the tool more frequently as a chamber stirrer?”
“Awesome vape for the buck. Great way to try DaVinci. I had to buy one to add to my collection. Remember to go pick up a Zyyde leather sleeve to protect your investment. Great handmade leather. (helps with the heat.”
“Pretty happy with this purchase, wish the draw
were better / easier. The IQ2 didn't seem worth the price difference for the adjustable air flow option. If I could purchase the just the dial portion and install on the IQC I would.”
