I was scooping up a new Vapcap-B for a friend as a birthday gift (three days before they announced a BOGO deal on Vapcap-B’s!) so I decided to shop around for upgrades for my 2020-M.
I still like the midbody design from my 2020, and the fact that this M was personally gifted to me by George (we met at a CHAMPS show in 2020, but know each other as we shared banking notes when founding our businesses in the same year). But I needed a new captive cap and really like the look of the new Titanium Helix tip so I figured why not upgrade.
REALLY liking this design, I think I like it more than my original first-gen Omnivap.

How well does it vape? I have a 2019 M that I still use occasionally but haven’t used any of the newer ones.
So I upgraded the tip and the cap. My 2020 already had a captive cap, but felt like it needed a replacement (my old one was literally starting to get rusty from heavy use lol)
It’s a very different experience - the draw resistance has completely changed with this new titanium helix tip. I can literally hear the air wooshing inside from the edges of the cap. That is not something I’ve really heard before. The drag is also much lower - it feels like there’s a hole in the vape even with a carb hole closed haha.
I feel like I’m able to get a more complete extraction in fewer cycles, and I’m able to get a deeper lung-full of vapor without fighting the draw resistance as much. Overall very pleased with my purchase.
Note - I got the standard captive cap. I did not opt for the newer “armored cap” which supposedly retains heat MUCH longer for a full oven extraction in one heat cycle - that’s too much for me.
That sounds pretty good. I might have to check it out. My current cap is non-captive and I use a vaphit silver collar on it to get longer cycles between reheating and it is supposed to work better with the captive cap.
The captive cap isn’t bad - I like that it latches onto the tip better. I hear some people complain that the cap clicks too early making it a lower temp than older classic caps.
The real difference for my setup is the new titanium helix tip which is a real work of art to look at (the main reason I bought it lol, it’s just cool to look at) - that’s what really increases the airflow.
Never heard of the Vaphit Silver Collar. That kinda looks like the idea behind the Dynavap Armored cap which supposedly takes like 3 minutes to cool down before you can reheat again - which kinda kills the purpose of the vapcap to me - I like extracting in a few on-demand puffs. I don’t need/want a device that stays hot for several minutes - I have many other vaporizers in my collection for that action haha.
Ah gotcha. I usually vape a whole load at a time. I’m a bit of a snob and like fresh flower each time I have some so I don’t save it for later. I’ll have to take a look at the armored cap as that sounds interesting.
Btw I bought one of your mighty water pipe adapters back in 2018 and still use it all the time.
Haha, yeah I’m a flavor chasing snob most of the time myself - just kicking around a vapcap because I like to cycle through my devices to avoid building up a tolerance to a device

Woot! I love to hear it. The biz was and still is purely a labor of love.
