Hey Everybody, Vapeologist here with a review of the Arizer Extreme Q vape for Herbals,
leaves, liquids and concentrates. I have been really looking forward to this vape, I have
the Arizer Solo portable vape and am very impressed with it. The Extreme Q seems like
it can do it all so lets put it to the test.
The Extreme Q(and Q stands for quiet, apparently) is a convection vape that can either force
hot air through your herbs or allows you to use it as a direct draw vape as well. Forced
air means you can use a bag, so lets look at all the accessories.
Included are two ground glass cyclone bowls, a glass pick with a stirring pick on one end
and a screen tool on the other, a potpourri dish, two glass mouthpieces, A right angle
ground glass bag filling tube, a right angle ground glass whip with glass mouthpiece, and
two food grade bags to fill with a glass mouthpiece and o-rings. Is that it?
Oh yeah a replacement screen for the cyclone bowls, three screens that fit inside any 19mm
ground glass fitting, and a remote control.
Yes, seriously, this has a remove control, that covers power, temp, fan speed, beep shutoff,
shutoff timer, and bottom running lights.
Seriously.
Okay, as stated this thing has a ceramic heating element surrounded by glass, so that sounds
good and inert! I am going to use the WHip today but it fills a bag just as easily. Turn
the unit and set your temp and allow it to climb to your setting while you load the cyclone
bowl. I have never seen a cyclone action take place in the bowl, but your experience may
PUt a screen in your ground glass end to the whip, and that will allow it to trap the herbs.
Sit the cyclone bowl on the heating element as soon as it gets to temp, and inhale. You
can also turn the fan on with the whip if you prefer. It takes a bit to get the herbs
up to temp, but once they get there this thing produces really good vapors that taste exactly
what you load up and nothing more.
THey seemed a little thin on the cloud side, but the effect was most definitely there.
Having the option to use a bag as well, and choosing between fan and no fan really opens
up options for the Extreme Q. It can work with a tons of accessories if you had the
right adapters, which are popping up left and right.
I don't like how stiff the whip is, its a bit unruly at times, but that is manageable.
The bags could REALLY use a valve on them as well, but that isn't a deal breaker. The
joints on the ground glass pieces are absolutely horrible though. THese are going to break.
THis area should be reinforced, not neglected like it was. I suspect these were not made
in Canada, where Arizer is from. That is a shame.
I didn't really like the remote at first, but found myself actually using it more and
more now. Its not that I am being that lazy, its just that the click buttons on the Q itself
are just not as easy to use as the remote. Also the cyclone bowl is after you remove
it from the vape so a metal plate or place to put it would be something you will want.
Overall the quality of construction is good, and it seems durable except for the ground
glass welds. The price is not bad considering this thing can be adapted to any style of
inhalation you want, water pieces, percolators, glycerin tubes, whatever. The vapors taste
good and are extremely effective, they are just a bit on the thinner side, but its purely
a visual issue as it was still so effective, and that is all that really matters. Its not
about clouds...its about function and effectiveness, and the Extreme Q definitely delivers. Its
like a combo of the SSV and Volcano, just not quite as good as either. But its close.
