Arizer Extreme Q (EQ)

The Arizer Extreme Q (EQ) is a very good budget friendly desktop vaporizer. It provides a multi-functional experience much like the S&B Volcano for a fraction of the price.

This was my very first vape I bought way back and used it for a long time before I got anything else, I would have bought the EQ2 but it was double the price at the time. I have not used it in a long time since I got the volcano and other vapes but I still remember this vape very fondly as it was my first so am happy to make this thread and will try my best to update/edit and maintain it. If any mistake or anything anyone wants to add or ask please do as this is a wonderful vape for someone just starting out so it must be talked about here.

As I said this was my first vape and I used it constantly all day every day for 6 month and this was to stop me combusting I bought and used this so heavily. I only used the bag so cant say what the whip and stem is like. I used it at 260 degree C (max temp) and would soak the bowl with the herb in it for a few minutes before letting it fill the bag. I only combusted 5 or so times as I let the bowl soak for too long.

There are many accessories and modifications for the Arizer Extreme Q (EQ) and most of the good ones involve getting the weed closer to the heater using different parts and bowls. Unfortunately the main site that provided the best mods DDAVE mods has shut down after years of providing these parts. However if you check reddit there are lots of ideas like elbow packing and you can get most of the DDAVE parts from reddit and make custom stems/bolw set ups.

I myself have never tried anything like this but I did have the DDAVE bowl that placed the herb closer to heater and it worked well before I dropped it. I believe Arizer provide a new bowl that is similar.

There is a arizer extreme q (eq) thread on FC with this one member who made custom stem set up like DDAVE and lots of other information.

Thanks @Rodney - this vape needed a thread!

The Extreme was my first vape in early 2008 when it first came out, and I am also fond of Arizer vapes - they are a great value and deliver fantastic taste. This vape is easily one of the best values on the market for a tabletop vape.

I started my true dry herb journey with a volcano. Then moved to stick vapes. I often wonder if I should’ve started with this one. It seems so neat.

EQ was my second vape after MFLB, so a huge upgrade. Used it for some time with the DDave mods and various other parts.

The picture shows one of my favorite EQ pieces I have. It is a custom made glass steamroller with super dark blood red drips running down. Made by Joda Glassworks.

EQ is a great vape, but has seen its Prime so to speak. Can’t keep up with modern ball vapes.

I remember back when I bought it (2013-14?) I was super excited about the bag feature. And I hated it. lol. Super slow to fill bags and the crinkle noise they make does not agree with me.

Loved the EQ and will never get rid of it but don’t plan to use it with any frequency.

Same!

Started vaping 11 years ago during our honeymoon. We first got the MFLB but didn’t really like it and then got the EQ a few days later. Had it for years, loved it. Never used the whip. But I don’t miss the balloons and the sound they make while inflating.

He’ll yeah! I remember when Joda was making stuff for us. I’m pretty sure he did my pokeball bubbler.
