unsure if anyone following the thread and interested but elite arrived and first impressions is great.



digi read out is easy and clear and kinda cool seeing the temp go up in numbers with the lights aswell.

the light on the front is now a leaf instead of a led that changes colour.



the pump is good with only one plug but same power and sound as the h2.2 pump. I would of thought it would of been nice to somehow incorporate the power lead from the pump to the unit with the air tube in side or fixed to it some how.

but no biggy.

programing the timer on the pump is a good feature and with the standard bags one bag takes about 1min 20 - 1min 30secs.



the new bags system is simple and effective much better than the screw clamps on the h2.2.



I got the 3 bag adaptor and all three bags inflated in under 5mins. atm it seems the top bag get the best milkier vapor and the side bags are slightly thinner.

thinking of ways round that already. like more herb haha or finger over the top bag fitment while the other two side bags fill then about half way through putting the top one on.



new crucible system a lot better no more burnt fingers or dumping red hot crucibles on the kitchen table.



they still use that rubbish hard stiff tubing for the pump tube and whip.

im using a mflb whip atm which is much better and planning to get another length of the same tube for the air flow from the pump.



used it once with my bubbler. not a great result yet. fitment fine with a d -020 18mm connection but not clouds of vapor.

ive seen a guy on u tube using the same bubb with a h2.2 and getting clouds so need to work on that.



so all in all im happy with the switch is it worth it I think so. they should ship the h2.2 with some of the features from the elite. like the volc classic and digi.



I love these herbalaires I think they definately need to address the quality of the tubing on both machines as a first and must.



I still maintain and mates of mine do that the herbies get the most vaked out of all the vapes we've tried
