Have you ever wondered why DaVinci Tech never produced a device compatible with oils? They were making us wait for the premium 510 cartridge-compatible DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer.
The vaping industry was missing an all-in-one device for oil smoking. However, this segment of the market has now been served with the introduction of the DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer.
In this review, I will share my opinion regarding how effectively the manufacturer has overcome the performance issues in 510 cartridge-compatible devices.
After unboxing the DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer, I felt like I was robbed because the number of accessories felt inadequate for a DaVinci Tech device. However, you must know that the vaping devices compatible with 510 oil cartridges do not have many customization options, so accessories are somewhat irrelevant.
I found the following things in the box:
The ARTIQ cartridge vaporizer
A USB Type-C Cable
Cleaning tools
2x extra magnetic collars
2x extra gasket seals
1x User Manual
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer’s package did not include dosage pods and 10-mm adaptors because they are irrelevant in oil-based vaporizers.
Value, value, and value are the only things that I would say when considering the value for money. The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer has an average price for a premium oil vaping device. It costs $60 without any coupon or discount voucher. Many lesser-known brands are selling inferior products for the same price.
Design & Build Quality
I did not feel that I was holding a device compatible with 510 cartridges because the DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer looked exactly like the preceding models. The 90-mm long body was compact enough to fit inside my hands and was somehow on par with other lightweight oil-based vaporizers.
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer has an antimicrobial polymer mouthpiece that prevents contamination. The bottom of the device has holes for airflow and a USB-C port for faster charging. The internal components are pretty advanced.
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer has an elongated air path inside its shell for maximum cooling before the vapors can reach your mouth. The heating chamber along with the cartridge, are fully concealed to make sure that the taste and oil do not degrade. DaVinci Tech also provides a 1-year warranty for manufacturing faults.
Vaping Performance
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer would be my first pick when it comes to flavorful vapor extraction from oil cartridges. To start off, the company has concealed the heating chamber to avoid the degradation of oils. The heating chamber is compatible with 0.5 to 1.0 grams cartridges, which felt enough for my daily use.
I went through the four heating modes and ran the 10-second preset heating. I have discussed the heating modes later in the review. Anyhow, the vapors were one of the most flavorful ones that I have ever extracted from oil cartridges. The elongated vapor path surely does its job pretty well. It definitely cooled the vapors by 90% to eliminate harshness.
Battery Life & Charging
The battery and charging stats get a thumbs up because they are very much on par with other 510-cartridge devices and pods. The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer is integrated with a 760 mAh battery. For the first time, I pulled out around 300 draws, but the manufacturer promises that this device can produce up to 700 draws per charging cycle.
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer is a rechargeable device with a USB-C charging port at the base for faster recharge. It took my DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer one hour to charge, so it is the undisputed winner when it comes to shorter recharge time in the DaVinci product line. The battery is internal, so you cannot swap cells for extra power. I could use the device while it was charging because of passthrough technology.
Ease Of Use
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer has voltage-based temperature intensities identical to pods and vape pens. It has three variable temperature settings starting from 2.8 volts and ending at 3.6 volts. The preheat temperature intensity of 1.8 volts is great to get the device going. There is only one LED indicator, which is why I missed the previous models while using this device. The trademark DaVinci LED grid is absent due to the simplicity of temperature settings.
However, the DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer has heartbeat-haptic feedback that helps in knowing what is happening inside the heating system. I did not miss the mobile controllability due to the straightforward physical controls. The dosage tracking feature would have been value-adding, if it was integrated. Moreover, the loading and unloading are easy due to the magnetic connection and less mess is created when compared to the dry herb vaping.
Customization Option
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer has the least customization options available in the product line. It does not offer precision controls and mobile app controllability. You have to stick with the smart paths and on-device buttons. Moreover, you cannot connect to water pipes and glass bongs like other DaVinci Tech devices.
Other than these features, the DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer is compatible with all sorts of 510 cartridges between 0.25 and 1 gram. You can smoke all sorts of cartridges using this device. However, I still feel that airflow should have been more customizable to further improve the quality of vapors.
Safety Features
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer is one of the safest devices in the oil vaporizer market. It has an antimicrobial polymer mouthpiece to avoid contamination throughout the smoking session. Moreover, the heating chamber is concealed to keep the oil from degradation.
The manufacturer has got the heavy metal components tested to ensure that they do not emit harmful radiation upon heating. The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer is certified by RoHS, which adds more credibility to the medical aspect.
Final Verdict: Is It Worth Buying?
The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer is a must-buy for anyone who likes smoking their oils. This is superior to most oil vaporizers and pods in the market because of its advanced cooling mechanism. I enjoyed every sip of the flavorful vapors produced by the DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer.
The battery life is sufficient for a regular vaper, and the ease of use makes the DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer the best product available on the internet. The mobile app controllability is absent, but that is understandable since most oil vaporizers are physically controllable. DaVinci Tech has done incredibly well to accommodate a different vaping system inside its shell while maintaining the discreteness that its product line is known for. The DaVinci ARTIQ Vaporizer will surely make your daily routine ecstatic.
