The Fenix vaporizer is a rare bird…
Indeed, Fenix, like the Phoenix, is a portable vaporizer with a great longevity!
But, does he have the power to rise from the ashes after dissipating in the vapours of the noblest plants??
Or is the Fenix an impostor who would have the power and charisma of a Parisian pigeon ???
Our investigators investigated all the aviaries of the island of France and Navarre…
So, in the end, what is the Fenix vaporizer really worth?

Fenix spray and convection heater
Weecke's Fenix vaporizer is almost 100% convection.
As a reminder, convection results in the passage of warm air through the plant to extract its active ingredients.
Fenix's efficient convection heating system provides a smooth, even vapor throughout the session.
The homogeneity of its heater is also enhanced by all the small holes in the grill at the bottom of the bowl which allows the air to be perfectly distributed around the plant.
Inhale gently and for a long time to effectively extract the active ingredients from your dry herbs.
The steam quality of the Fenix vapo!
The steam quality of the Fenix vaporizer remains very faithful to the vaporized plant.
This is due in part to the excellence of the heating system.
But don't forget the efficiency of the Fenix cooling unit, which allows you to enjoy a soft and fresh steam.
The softness of the steam is enhanced by the small holes at the bottom of the bowl that allow a perfectly fluid vaporization with a particularly efficient extraction.
Fenix vaporizer: Battery, heating time and battery life
Fenix's 2200mAh Lithium fixed battery allows you to do an average of 2 to 3 sessions at full charge.
This is not huge, especially since unfortunately you can not use it during the charge and the battery is not removable …
The heating speed is quite fast since it will reach its vaporization temperature in less than 30 seconds!
In summary, beware of the autonomy that is reduced…
A restricted temperature panel
With the possibility of choosing between four pre-set temperatures, Fenix is limited to plants or herbs in the 3rd table that vaporize at high temperatures.
Well, you're lucky, because most plants vaporize above 170 degrees Celsius…
1 – Green color – 170oC: Soft and fresh steam
2 – Blue Color – 180OC: Soft and dense steam
3 – Orange Color – 190OC: More aggressive steam
4- Red color – 210oC: Temperature to be used only for concentrates
The vaporizer also has an Enhanced mode…
To be honest, I didn't really understand technically what it meant, but what I can tell you is that the steam then becomes very aggressive and unsylable!
For the use of concentrates, a special stainless steel bowl is delivered in the pack.
Ergonomics and use of Fenix vaporizer
Simple, small and efficient with a single button.
It is easily taken in the hand.
The Fenix has a soft black carbon design with a very soft coating and pleasant to the touch.
I'm not too fan of grooves on the mouthpiece … It's not very pleasant in the mouth compared to a smooth tip.
But hey, it's still a detail!
The nomadic side of its use is perfect because in addition to being very light it is not noticed.
Fenix maintenance
The maintenance of the Fenix vaporizer is frankly simple… simpler than that, I don't know.
Weecke has everything in the box that accompanies the vaporizer.
Take the small brush provided to clean the bowl after each use. To clean the cooling unit, simply disassemble it and soak everything in alcohol at 90 degrees or iso.
Don't leave the joints more than a few minutes in the alcohol!
How the Fenix vaporizer works
To turn the Fenix vaporizer on or off, you need to press the single button at five quick taps.
An LED light will produce 3 flashes, then the vaporizer heats up to reach the last selected temperature.
To change the temperature, you have to press the button twice quickly.
The speed at which light emits flashes when a mode is activated makes it possible to distinguish which mode has been selected.
For example, the light will flash slowly in Soft mode, and will flash faster in Enhanced (enhanced) mode.
To change MODE, you have to press the button for a few seconds.

Summary
The Fenix vaporizer is an excellent entry-level vaporizer… Definitely the best even.
With its rather cool steam and fast heating, it's a must-have!
It has an entry-level price but its performance is that of a mid-range vaporizer.
Its print or Airflow is rather open and it respects the taste of plants quite well.
Just a pity that it is not usable during the charge or that we can not change the batteries …
But hey, you can't see everything either!!
Did I hear "Yes!" in the background?
