Flowermate Aura Vaporizer Review
\n<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Flowermate<\/p>\n

\n\"Flowermate<\/p>\n

How it Works<\/h3>\n

As with most dry herb vaporizers, using the Flowermate Aura Vaporizer is pretty simple. Remove the mouthpiece, load the ceramic chamber with your herb, and power on the device.<\/p>\n

Choosing your temperature is easy with the two appropriate buttons, and in about 30 seconds you\u2019re able to have your session! Since it\u2019s a conduction based unit, I like to let the herb heat soak for a few more seconds before having my first draw.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/p>\n

Temperature Flexibility<\/h3>\n

You\u2019re given a healthy temperature range to choose from, letting you choose anywhere between 104-446\u00b0F\/40-230\u00b0C.<\/p>\n

The OLED display allows you to adjust the temperature in small increments, giving you full control over your experience! You could also check out the Zeus Arc GTS Hub<\/a> which has 3 temperature controls, allowing you to choose heating styles for your preference.<\/div><\/div>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/h3>\n

Vapor Quality<\/h3>\n

Using the standard ceramic chamber that Flowermate uses on most of their devices, you\u2019re given decent conduction-style vapor from it. The first few draws from the Aura are quite strong, however, the flavor tapers off quite quickly.<\/p>\n

At higher temperatures, you get the standard \u2018toasted popcorn\u2019 flavor that\u2019s characteristic of most conduction vapes.<\/p>\n

The Flowermate Aura Vaporizer is capable of doing waxes with the included concentrates pod, and it works. But it\u2019s really nothing spectacular, especially compared to a dedicated wax pen like the Utillian 5 (V4)<\/a>, but it\u2019ll do the job. I\u2019d much prefer saving my concentrates for use with something that was made for it though.<\/p>\n

The mouthpiece being plastic though doesn\u2019t give you as clean of a vapor path as something like glass does, and the draw resistance isn\u2019t anything great either. By today’s standards though, I feel as though it doesn\u2019t stack up to other budget portables that use hybrid heating. For what it is though, it still does the trick! <\/div><\/div><\/span>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/span><\/p>\n

Manufacturing Quality<\/h3>\n

Flowermate is known for highly reliable products, but the Flowermate Aura Vaporizer seems to deviate from that slightly. The plastic mouthpiece has become a notorious problem for many people \u2013 cracking and breaking constantly. Though Flowermate has been known to help people out who encounter this problem, it\u2019s still not exactly an issue you want to run into. One would think a proper glass mouthpiece like the one seen on the Arizer Solo<\/a> would’ve been a standard at this point.<\/p>\n

You\u2019re given a healthy accessories package with a cleaning brush, plenty of replacement screens, dry herb pod, concentrates pod, and a USB cable. I\u2019m glad Flowermate sorts us out with the two pods, as they\u2019re definitely quite useful!<\/p>\n

Aside from the mouthpiece problem, the Aura feels good to hold. The build of it reminds me of an industrial design that the Boundless CF or Crafty<\/a> possesses. I wouldn\u2019t put it at the same quality as either though \u2013 understandable due to the cost.<\/p>\n

\"Flowermate<\/p>\n

<\/div><\/div><\/span>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/p>\n

Battery Life<\/h3>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019re given a 2600mAh battery which can yield around 7-10 sessions per charge! That\u2019s fairly impressive for the price!<\/p>\n

It charges using a conventional Micro USB cable, and in about 3-4 hours you\u2019ll go from flat until full. This is pretty average for most vaporizers, even ones more expensive! But if you prefer one with removable batteries, the Flowermate Slick<\/a> vaporizer can be a good choice for you.\u00a0 <\/div><\/div><\/span>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/span><\/p>\n

Portability<\/h3>\n

At only around 6 inches tall, the Flowermate Aura Vaporizer is easy to stow away into any pocket or bag! You\u2019ll have no problem bringing it outside, and the rugged design brings comfort to the mind if you\u2019re someone who\u2019s particularly gentle with handling. There are smaller units like the Pax 3<\/a> which are even more portable, though you\u2019ll certainly be paying more for that!<\/p>\n

The included dry herb pod makes it really convenient for having two sessions when out and about. Preload your chamber before heading out, and after your first session empty it out. Toss in a preloaded dry herb pod and then you\u2019re ready to go again. It\u2019s a lot quicker and easier than having to manually reload an empty chamber and I appreciate any pod system greatly for that reason. <\/div><\/div>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/p>\n

Ease of Use<\/h3>\n

Like all Flowermate products, using the Aura is really straightforward. This was meant to be a no-frills entry-level device, and it certainly does that well! A complete beginner could pick it up and get some good results with minimal coaching. There are no special draw methods or loading techniques that require fine attention \u2013 just gently pack down your herb and you\u2019re ready to go.<\/p>\n

Cleaning is just as easy. Both the chamber and mouthpiece clean well with just a cotton swab soaked in isopropyl alcohol, and the included stainless steel pods clean best when submerged in some iso. You can also try checking out the LITL 1<\/a> which can hold up to 0.2 grams of herbs.<\/div><\/div>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/span><\/p>\n

Discreetness<\/h3>\n

Compliments to the small size, the Aura is easy to conceal and looks like a typical e-juice vaporizer when in use. Though any smells might pique curiosity from some, you really won\u2019t raise much suspicion if someone saw you taking a hit from it.<\/p>\n

If portability and discretion are things you really value, the Aura covers you well then! Then there’s the Davinci Miqro<\/a>(the name says it all), with its sleek and small design, you can easily put it on your jean’s watch pocket. <\/div><\/div>

\n

\"Flowermate<\/p>\n

Overall Experience<\/h3>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking at getting your first dry herb vaporizer, the Aura leaves a bit to be desired. If you\u2019re someone who has more than a couple of sessions a week, I\u2019d highly recommend bumping your budget up a little more for something more significant, like the Zeus Arc GTS Hub<\/a>, as you\u2019ll get much better vapor quality from it, and won\u2019t be tempted to upgrade for a while.<\/p>\n

The Aura certainly isn\u2019t bad by any means, but the vapor quality isn\u2019t anything special. When it first released in 2016, it was average by those standards. Two years down the line, I can\u2019t help but feel like it\u2019s a bit below the norm. They can be found at quite a low price nowadays, so if you\u2019re really just looking for a device to pick up and use occasionally and not invest too much into, the Aura is a good bet. But for the price, the Utillian 420 may be a better budget buy.<\/p>\n
