We're going to look at what still makes the Arizer Air II a great vape and give a brief rundown of how to run and care for the device, let's dive in to this classic dry herb vape!
What Made The Arizer Air II A Success?
After the success of the original Air Vaporizer Arizer brought the heat with the Air II. The Air II utilizes the same recessed heat jets that makes Arizer's Solo II such a beast—this drastic change to the air flow creates vapor that is unprecedented in taste!
The unit uses a mixture of conduction and convection heating, delivering huge clouds with vivid flavor profiles. 18650 batteries power the unit and while they do degrade over time, you still get a solid 75 minutes of vaporizing per charge. The unit features pass-through charging that is so powerful that you can go from dead battery to vaping in about 5 minutes.
An isolated airpath and kit of borosilicate glass aroma tubes maximize flavor, purity, and deliver the "true vaporization" experience Arizer is known for. Compact and convenient, the Air II’s glass tubes feature a rubber cap so you can pre-pack bowls for on-the-go use.
How To Use The Arizer Air II
Once your Arizer Air II arrives, make sure to fully charge the battery to ensure your first vape session is a good one. After your unit is charged you‘ll want to sterilize it, simply hold down the M button and minus arrow button at the same time to turn the unit on. The bright display will show you a countdown that starts at 5, the numbers should begin to count down after that. When the counter reaches zero, the device will beep and will greet you with a “Hi” message and friendly smiley face.
Now that your Air II is unlocked use the up arrow to bring the unit to its highest temperature, which is 428°. The Air II vape will automatically begin to heat, so let it sit and run through a full cycle; after 10 minutes the unit will go into sleep mode. Repeat this process two more times to complete sterilization, this is just to get rid of any of the manufacturing oils that may have gotten inside the unit as a result of putting it together.
Once this process is finished you’re ready to load your dry herb. After you’ve ground your herb to a thin consistency, pack it into the dish of your glass aroma tube. Next, slide your glass tube into the heating chamber and boom, you’re ready to vaporize.
After your herb is loaded you can choose between Celsius and Fahrenheit by clicking the menu button and following the simple settings from there. This vaporizer will automatically begin heating to the last preset temperature when turned on, so you won’t have to jog your brain for what temp brings out the best in your herb.
