I recently purchased the Vapor Brothers hands free gnes model. I have been experimenting with the temperature setting on the model for about a month and have included a picture of what I have found as my ideal temperature setting. It is somewhere around one o'clock position on the knob.

If the Vapor Brothers model is new to you I highly recommend trying it out. It is my first experience with a vape and love the change. I hardly ever SMOKE marijuana at all any more, plus I can vaporize in my dorm room with hardly any smell at all.

Welcome to the world of vaping! I love my vape. I had a VB at first, and sold it to a friend b/c she wanted it. So then, I got the VaporWarez hands free model. I love vaping too...definitely a cleaner high and conserves a lot of weed...doesn't take as much to get high

1 o'clock, eh? Makes me wonder, do different VB models have different "optimal settings"? Because if I were to set mine at 1, my weed would be burnt to a crisp in about 5 seconds.

My "off" position is about 4:30 and I find that a good "on" setting is about 9:30, sometimes 10. Any higher than that and it will start to burn.

Curious, I checked my max and its a little over 3 o'clock. The problem must be in the orientation not the scale of the knob.

The manufacturer might use rheostats with different max resistance, making the settings different. Rheostats are round and can be mounted anywhere in 360º, so the "clock" setting could well be different from machine to machine depending on the orientation of the rheostat. Finally, the heating elements are not necessarily identical or precisely calibrated, making the setting to get a specific temperature different from unit to unit.

I agree that comparing 'your setting' to 'my setting', even on the same model vaporizer, is not a good idea. Even if all the hardware and the 'on position' were identical on every unit, there would still be differences because of the amount of moisture in the product, whether it's packed in or sprinkled in, how long the whip is connected to the heater tube, and probably the most important factor to the vaping temp - how hard you draw on the whip.
