Hey everyone,

I've been seeing the Tornado mentioned in various places and wanted to ask for your opinions. Are any of you thinking of copping one?

Analog devices are very attractive to me. While I like the fact that devices like the UniDyn look like a tiny stick, I am a huge proponent for overengineered functionality than aesthetic (to an extent!)

This is a really great wake-up call for me not to continue down the device rabbit hole ^^ Thanks for your points! I think once I get my technique down for the DynaVap (the UniDyn is my first ๐Ÿ˜…), maybe I'll stop thinking about the tornado as much

If the tornado tip truly keeps calling for you then listen to your gut! For all I know it could be the super-ultimate-vapcap-endgame tip to end all tips completely worth the price. I personally have a couple different vapes not just a vapcap so its easy for me to say im satisfied with my vape experience when I have 5 different ways to do it. If you just starting out with vapcap its easy to get caught up in the upgrade marketing promising slightly different vapor experiences. The pieces are cool, shiny, and functional artesian type things so its satisfying to build a collection of a few. Money means different things to people. For me 200$ is a lot, like an every once in a while purchase that better be a completely new electric powered device with a novel heating element/distribution. To you 200$ may be who-cares whatever play money thats fine to spend as long as you get the experience you want. Im sure the people who get the anvils and the tempest head and stuff are happy with their upgrades but just how much better can it be to be worth the multi-hundred dollar initiation price vs just sticking with the enjoyable experience you got + lots of bud. IDK thats for each person to figure out.

Question how do you heat your unidyn are you torching it or using an induction heater?
