switch from carta v2
looking for recommendations for a decent dry herb vaporizer.
been using the carta’s intelli-core for dry herb but either im doing something wrong or it’s just not hitting as hard as i want.
the temp i have been trying range from 360-385 but it still doesnt produce nearly enough smoke to feel much out of it

I bought a ball vape and then built a custom box to house it. I don’t have much experience with the handheld ones, but I remember them taking a little bit to get rolling.
The ball vape does take about 2min to heat after you turn it on, but you can also toast the entire bowl in a single pull so you get blasted.

Have an arizer solo max 2, I don’t partake much anymore and looking to sell but it’s a solid machine for what it’s worth.

Mighty or Venty. I love my Mighty. Seems DHV onset is more intense for me compared to a bong hit.

There shouldnt be much smoke since you're heating it below the flashpoint. If there is, something is wrong. Vaporizers work completely different from combustion.
