I've been happy with my Pinnacle naporizer. I decided though, I'd like a vape that does both herb and wax/oils and does them well. So I decided on a Da Vinci, as the price has come down on them. I bought mine direct from the company

http://www.davincivaporizer.com/

I paid $129.00 fo it. Shipping was free and fast! I go it this morning and took a couple pics while unboxing.

Right now the Da Vinci comes with a couple of extra accessories free, a car charger and an extended, flexible mouth piece. Things I didn't get pics of: the heat chamber and inside the lid. So, the chamber holds maybe .3-.4 grams. The one gripe I have is filling the chamber is a little awkward as the lid does not flip up all the way or remove. But thats not really a problem. The Da Vinci comes with a brush/stirrring tool that’s mounted right inside the lid! Nice touch!

There are 2 "oil cans" that are used for wax or oil type concentrates. The wax can is just a plain can and lid, no wick, which the oil can has. They simply drop into the oven, its that simple!

The mouth piece is removable, it just unscrews. The finish is a matt black, with a non-slip grip. The unit feels heavy and well made. The button clicks, the hinge of the lid, everything works well and very smoothly.
On the right side is the power button. This needs to be on to use, AND to charge. Speaking of charging, you can charge while vaping with the Da Vinci.
On the left are three buttons. From the top down:
Temperature up
Temperature down
Oven on/off
Max temperature is 405F

I filled the chamber full but not packed. After using this for the first time, you can probably packed it a little on the firm side and be fine. And I'll tell you why. The draw. It has the lowest draw resistance I've experienced to date. It is so easy to take a hit its amazing!

And the VAPOR! Yes in caps! it easily outproduces any other vape I own, including my Pinnacle!
So much vapor that I was stoned with three hits! Hit this vape long enough and hard enough, it can make you cough! Take short, easy pulls and your good!
The vapor was warm but not hot. Taste is excellent. As always, the first couple hits of a vape when you get that burst of terpenes, well you get a bigger burst with the Da Vinci.
Is it stealthy? Well, nit really but almost. I have a fairly large hand and I can't conceal it in my hand, but you can keep it covered enough it won't be noticeable, if that's a factor for you. The matt finish helps too.

I don't know what the battery life is yet, but we've vaped three times today and its still going strong. I'll update in a couple days after I've tested that. I suspect it will be fine, maybe an hour or more.

The final word? The Da Vinci far exceeded my expectations! The new, reasonable price makes the Da Vinci the contender for a moderately priced, portable vaporizer. I don't think there is a better vape than the Da Vinci for less than $200. so far, I'd recommend this vape for anyone looking for a vape in the $100 to $200 range.

Update:
Battery life is good a little over an hour of use can be expected. I got 10 sessions before I had to recharge.

And again, the hit is phenomenal! Easily three times as strong as my Iolite or even the Pinnacle. I just did three hits of Northern Lights and I've got a hell of a buzz! Good thing its a milder high than the Sour Dragon I've been vaping!

When I can finally make some dry ice hash, I'll review using the wax tank. I'm really looking forward to that test!

I tested the oil can recently with some hash. I just turned the temp up to max and it worked great! gives a hit big enough to make you cough!

On the down side, the flex straw broke and i went to theire site to order one........$14.95!! and $6.95 for a set of screens! come on, what did it cost for them screens? I bet they pay about 2 dollars a thousand for them! I wrote to them and told them their pricing was ludicrous ( exactly what i said! ). They replied and offered me the straw free if I ordered the screens. Ok , fair enough.

Tuesday i got the screens.........NO straw! Emailed them and said thanks for the screens but my vape is usueless with the straw.....

OOPS! we'll send it right out
uh huh.. Is there such a thing as competent customer service anymore??????

But, even so, I love this vape i use it every day and rarely smoke.

so this is still the best bang for the buck, mid priced vape.
