viVape 2 (Vaporfection) Digital Vaporizer Review (by gus maley)

Not every day that you see a vaporizer that looks like it was made by Apple. This Apple-esque desktop vape has a touchscreen display and the option of using whips or bags. The bags are pretty good and the whip is great in my opinion. This is one of the vapes that I've used and I think this review is pretty much right on. I can't wait to see what Vaporfection has in store for all of us next. Maybe their miVape will come out soon. That's their portable for those that don't know.

This is my viVape 2 video review that's up on my YouTube channel. You should check out my channel to see the rest of my videos. Anyways, I'm going to give you a quick review of this vape so you know what it's about.

My Review of the viVape:

So this is a digital vaporizer and I mean that in the sense that it's got digital temperature controls. It actually has a touchscreen display which you use to change the mode, adjust the heat, and turn it on and off. Pretty easy to use, just a couple taps of the screen and it's heating up. Wait for the blue light and then go. That's about all it takes to use this thing. What's cool, or at least what I think is cool, about this one is the bag and whip option that the Extreme Q is well known for. This means you're not limited to whips or bags because you can use both. The fan stays on and the cool down time takes a while but other than that it's really a legit vape. The following are a couple of links to reviews on a couple of other sites (one of them being mine) where you can learn more about this Vaporfection vaporizer:

There is a new contender for the ultra high end market and that means I must serve duty as vaporizer reviews king. Vaporfection viVape Vaporizer Review time.  This unit was announced in late September and is officially launching this month January 2012.

Vaporfection is a company that has been around since 2003 and they have a good reputation for being one of the smaller companies that really care about their customer.  That being said,  what warrants such a high price on a Vaporizer, a price that is within shouting distance of the world champion Volcano Vaporizer.

A picture is worth a thousand words.  The Vaporfection viVape is the first Vaporizer in the world to have a touch screen control panel.   It is no secret that consumers love digitally controlled vaporizers like the Vaporfection viVape..   In the last year there has been a big push for units with digital controls.  There was so much of a demand that Volcano released a digital version of it’s flagship Vaporizer.    For the high end market, digital displays meant more accurate temperature controls and monitoring.

Another very smart move by Vaporfection is that the the viVape vaporizer is dual-draw, having both balloon and direct wand draw capabilities, which are controlled by the touch screen.  On top of that, unlike some other Vaporizers, this unit comes with everything you need so you can experiment with both methods as soon as your unit arrives in the mail.

What You Get:

-ViVape vaporizer -power cord -2 vape bags -3ft medical quality hose -glass whip/wand -glass mouthpiece -vape valve -6 screens -screen/stick stir tool -owners manual, registration card, warranty

Specs: -1.75 lbs. -7.75″ height x 5.25″ width x 2.50″ depth -two year warranty -list price $449

I do have to admit, this is a very clean and sexy looking unit.   The ViVape Vaporizeris available in two colors, black and white.  We like the black unit best, which is what our top secret tester unit came as.  Now its great that it has the touch screen and looks nice, but what about the most important part, its functionality and it’s guts?

First, in what I consider a smart move, the people at ViVape Vaporizer decided to make the voltage both 110 and 240 compatible making this Vaporizer useable anywhere in the world.  This is cool not just for the consumer who can use it on trips, but from a marketing standpoint as well, as their product can be sold anywhere in the world without adding cheap adapters.

Now lets talk about the touch screen.   I am really a big fan of this.  You select whether you want to do balloon or wand via the touch screen, and of course it also shows your current temperature and target temperature.  This truly is as simple and uncomplicated as it gets but for some reason it seems 20 times cooler being touch screen.

The insides of the Vaporfection viVape are no joke either.  the touch screen is attached to a some fancy temp sensing technology which is all automatic and working behind the scenes.  the viVape vaporizer literally has a digital microprocessor which controls the temperature via the thermo coupling sensor it is wired to on the inside.  This makes for extremely precise temperature control .  The unit also has an auto shut off and cool down program which is very smart.

So with all that out of the way, lets talk about our tester unit.  While we don’t consider looks to be at the top of the priority list when it comes to a Vaporizer, this unit is very sexy.  The construction seems solid, though we were not allowed to test that theory by dropping it or throwing it against a wall.  The touch screen is quality and accurate in terms of responding to your finger.

The vapor this unit produces is very high quality.  As usual with any unit you need to find the sweet spot temperature wise but we found the readout to be extremely accurate and on point.  The vapor was super clean and very tasty.  We experimented with both the balloon and the wand and enjoyed both very much.

If we had to come up with a critique, it would involve portability.  This unit is the perfect size to be a portable, and if it was it could compete with the less expensive Iolite Wisprvaporizer.  But it’s not.  It requires being plugged in. Now this isn’t a huge deal, and to be honest due to the price of this unit I’m glad that most people will be leaving it at home and not risking damage while out and about, but it would be nice to have the feature be available.  I will say of all the vaporizer reviews I’ve done, the vivape vaporizer review excited me most because of the very cool touchscreen aspect, as nerdy as that sounds.

viVape Review: The viVape is the newest vaporizer to come from VaporFection family the makers of other great vaporizers such as the Stealth.  Reviewing this vaporizer makes one realize immediately that the viVape is one of the most technologically advanced vaporizers on the market today.  Vaporfection has been designing, engineering and researching vaporizers since 2003.  They have a reputation for dedicating themselves to making only the best products using only the best parts available and after reviewing the viVape vaporizer I believe it.   What makes the viVape such a great new innovative product is all the cool features that it has to offer.  We have all used vaporizers that utilize either a balloon or a wand system.  The viVape gives you the choice to use which ever you prefer at any given time.  Vaporfection has also added a new feature that they call "vapor sense" which allows for automatic temperature sensing and automatic shut-off and cool down.  One of the coolest things is that it can all be controlled with just the touch of a button thanks to Vaporfection's touchscreen control system.  The viVape heats up super fast and you can review the temperature you are at by looking at the cool lcd screen.  Vaporfection took just as much care designing the inside of the vaporizer as they did the outside.  Using their "Vapor Glass" technology they built a  glass on glass heating element.  Glass on glass heating elements are the best as they ensure the best flavors while simultaneously eliminating the possibility of the heating element emitting harmful toxins.  Vaporfection left nothing out when making the viVape and after reviewing this product I would recommend anyone in the market for a vaporizer to definitely check this one out.
