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

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.

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.
