I don’t like the Click (I have the Walnut version). Michael and David might feel it’s the way forward, but I still feel it’s a downgrade from the OG (or any version before the 2.0)
The bowl is too big, the airflow is one sided, and while the click may be useful for beginners, it detracts from what made the original so meditative/ritualistic.
I’m currently using an Olive 1.5(?? - whatever the pre-2.0 Italian made Vapmans were called) and it beats the Click hands down.
Just looked on the NowInhale website and spotted some OG Swiss made Basic (Pure) Vapmans in Pear or Walnut. The difference between the Classic and Basic is the Classic has a layer of Mica applied.
Yes, with the Basic models the torch will scorch the base, around the bowl, but that won’t affect how the Vapman works.
My personal preference will always lean towards the OG/pre-2.0 models (I own seven) but that’s because I’m a low volume user (~0.05g per bowl) and a flavour chaser. I sip, not rip.
Thanks! So will the basic have just as good of flavor once the break in is over? I was scared it would always taste burnt? So if you had your choice of a Swiss made basic or any of the new ones 2.0, classic click. Do you think you would go with the basic Swiss? I’ll be using a torch.
Hey Squidge, I love my Olive 1.5 the most, too.
But i tend to use the 2.0 a little more often just because of the better cleaning possibilties.
For a daily Driver it did not feel okay for me to unscrew the screen that often, am afraid to dull the holes for the screws too fast.
But for me for a now and then Vape the OG with its three Airports is one of the best Designs in my Vape History!
You like the 2.0? I think the 2.0 might be a good investment for the same cleaning reasons you stated. It also seems like it might just be built better than the other new ones.
I’ve never had a problem with the screws stripping. My habit has always been to tighten down gently then unscrew slightly so the wood can expand if it needs to.
I’m more afraid when removing the screen from the Click (I don’t own a 2.0) in case I bend the screen “wings” too much.
