Are you searching for a discreet vaporizer that operates and feels different from other devices on the market? Well, the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer is definitely amongst those products that have their trademark design and operating mechanism. It is considered a premium product that delivers more than expected.
However, the Tinymight 2 Vaporizer is often considered a competitor of the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer. Its manufacturer claims that the research team struggled for 18 years to develop this device. It has a wooden body with a discreet design that accompanies a unique loading method.
Which one of these two devices stands out as the most discreet yet powerful portable vaporizer? This article will answer this question by stating logical justifications.
Beginner – for novice users, the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer is easier to use. It has a simple loading method with a convenient control mechanism where the Bluetooth app serves a beginner more than anything else.
Flavor chasers – the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer has a superior vapor quality and taste. The manufacturer has integrated a cool core and an airtight chamber that preserves the taste and reduces the temperature. The airflow is adjustable, so a flavor chaser can rotate the air dial and maintain their favorite density level.
Travelers – the Tinymight 2 Vaporizer is definitely the better option for travelers because its battery refills in 45 minutes. You can also replace the depleted battery to extend the smoking sessions while on the go.
Heavy users – the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer is made for heavy users. It has a 0.7-gram capacity to cater to group usage, and the battery is removable to avoid the long charging time.
Design & Build Quality
The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer is a discreet vaping device made of American walnut wood, stainless steel, quartz glass, and aluminum. The walnut wood insulates the device to make sure that you do not burn your hand while holding it. It has more grains than ordinary wood to ensure a sturdier build and smoother feel. The device is around 4.3 inches tall. The design is discreet, but it is awkward to pocket with the quartz tube on. It is 50 grams bulkier than the DaVinci IQ3. However, the weight difference is not as evident as you would think.
The DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer is one of the slimmest vaping devices available on the internet. It is only 3.6 inches tall and can fit inside your hand or pocket. The body is made of aircraft-grade aluminum, which is durable enough to sustain daily use, and it has a classy look. The device has a zirconia chamber at the bottom and a mouthpiece at the top. The LED grid on the front makes it very simple to control the temperature settings. The overall look, feel, and design of the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer are better than most products.
Core Performance Metrics
Heating Metrics
The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer has a unique chamber design and heating mechanism. The hot air is blown from the heating component, and it goes through the dry herb. The dry herbs are heated within a couple of seconds, and then the vapors pass through the cooling unit. The chamber size is adjustable between 0.2 and 0.3 grams. To adjust the chamber size, you need to move the cooling unit using the multi-function tool.
The DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer has a zirconia chamber that heats the dry herb within 30 seconds but never burns it. The chamber has a 0.7-gram capacity, which is considered sufficient for heavy users and chain smokers. You can reduce the chamber size by adjusting the spacer integrated on the lid. The loading mechanism and chamber design of the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer are more traditional than the Tinymight 2 Vaporizer.
Power Metrics
The DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer’s power stats are not as good as any other feature integrated into it. Despite having a USB-C charging port, it takes around 3 hours to charge. The charging time is very long for an on-the-go device that travelers plan to use for its vapor quality and ease of use. The battery life runs for around 90 minutes per charging cycle. However, the 21700 battery is removable. Removability changes the whole scenario, as it allows you to carry an extra set of batteries (you have to purchase them separately).
The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer has a better-performing battery. It provides around 5 to 8 sessions of running time, which translates to 90 minutes per charging cycle on average. It also has a USB-C charging port at the bottom, which helps refill the battery within 45 minutes. However, this fast charging time is achievable when using the rapid charger (which the manufacturer sells separately). The battery is removable, so you can also carry an extra set for longer smoking sessions.
Vapor Quality and User Experience
The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer is often considered the best vaporizer for quality and flavor. I love it for its fast heating mechanism, despite being an entirely convection-based device. The airflow is consistent throughout the session because the herbs are heated through a warm gush of air blown through them. A vapor cooling unit is placed right above the heating chamber to reduce the temperature. The cooling unit is not as effective as I would have liked.
This device comes with higher temperature intensities that end at 250 degrees Celsius. However, the range is limited and goes down to 120 degrees Celsius only. The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer has precision temperature settings that you can set using the analog dial at the bottom. The power button holds the key. You can click the power button to switch between session and on-demand modes. The zero-degree intensity is a hidden lock that stops the heating element from functioning. You get LED indicators to help you through the settings and controls.
The DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer is an excellent companion for flavorful sessions because the airtight zirconia path prevents the taste from diminishing. Moreover, the airflow is adjustable using the air dial. Whether it is the airflow or the temperature intensity, this device lets you control both. The trademark cool core chamber reduces the temperature right before you can sip the vapors.
The temperature intensities on the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer start at 0 and end at 221 degrees Celsius. The manufacturer has retained the easy controls where you can opt for the precise temperatures or go for the preset levels. The temperature intensities can be selected using the physical buttons or the Bluetooth app that offers smart paths and dosage control features. Other than this, the LED grid at the front of the device is better than any indicator on the market because it is prominent and accurate.
Ease of Use and Maintenance
Maintenance of the Tinymight 2 Vaporizer is not difficult since you get a multifunction tool to help you out. You can carry the tool anywhere as it is integrated into the device. It only takes pulling out the tube and scratching the base of the chamber to scrape off the residue. Moreover, the tube can be soaked in the alcohol solution for a deeper clean.
On the contrary, you cannot soak the components of the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer in an alcohol solution. However, the cleaning brush can be used to scratch out the residue. The dry herbs do not make a mess inside the chamber, but concentrates are harder to clean. I do not recommend smoking concentrates on this device.
Price and Value Proposition
The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer is available on the official website for $350. The price might seem reasonable because the company promises a lot of things. I must admit that the manufacturer has done a fantastic job with the airflow and heating mechanism. However, the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer is a better device than the Tinymight 2 Vaporizer, and it is available for $300.
Warranty and Customer Support
The DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer provides the longest warranty coverage time in the vaping industry. It comes with a 10-year warranty on all the components, but only covers the manufacturing defects. The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer comes with a three-year warranty, which feels insufficient for a device that costs over $300.
Final Verdict
Both the devices that we compared in this article are value-added and flavor-focused. However, the thing that sets these two devices apart is the set of features. In my opinion, the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer is a slightly better device. It has the mobile app control to enable simpler and more effective operation. The chamber capacity is larger, and the cooling mechanism is superior. Other than this, the price is comparatively lower.
The Tinymight 2 Vaporizer has a unique design and potent heating system. However, the analog dial is a major turn-off for me. The loading mechanism is awkwardly unorthodox. The things that I love about the Tinymight 2 Vaporizer are its better battery performance and uninterrupted airflow. I would still recommend the DaVinci IQ3 Vaporizer because it offers more value.
