Great performance comes down to three things: moderate heat, a gentle draw and a little cooling time between draws.
With a 510 cartridge
- Start low, around 2.0–2.4V.
- Keep the battery charged.
- Attach the cartridge securely, without overtightening.
- Take slow, gentle draws.
- Let it cool between draws.
With an IRIS all-in-one
- Keep it charged.
- Draw slowly enough for the light to come on.
- Avoid forceful or back-to-back draws.
- Let it cool if it feels warm.
Gentle beats hard
A harder draw doesn’t give you more vapour. It pulls in more extract than the heating system can handle, which leads to gurgling or clogging.
If vapour starts to drop off, check the battery, the connection, the temperature and the airway before adding heat.
Keep it at its best
Store it upright at room temperature, keep the mouthpiece clean and protect it from knocks. Stop using it if it tastes burnt every time, leaks badly, cracks or gets unusually hot.
