Hydrology 9: The Highlights
Vapor quality:
The vapor quality is without an iota of doubt one of its strongest features. Subtly aided by the “tunnel tube” liquid filtration design. As you make your draws, the water filtration system is there to cool the air intake. The draw is effortless and remarkably smooth. The flavor is considerably better on the three lowest temperature setting, while the stirring tool ensures uniform vaping of the materials.
Manufacturing quality:
Here, we are talking elite status. The hydrology9 is breathtaking, both in beauty and design. Manufacturing doesn’t get meticulous than this! There is nothing like it on the market and the folks at Cloudious9 are not one to shy away from an opportunity to show invention. From design to the quality of material, we dare say it’s top-notch.
Battery Life:
The Hydrology features 2000mAh internal battery. By deduction, that should last around 15 vaping sessions. For a unit of this size and considering all the flashy-flashy the moment you turn it on, we consider this OK. Not one of its best points, but it is certainly not bad either.
Portability:
The Hydrology is a portable vaporizer. However, with a dimension of 45 mm x 175 mm, it is probably one of the largest portable vaporizers on the market. Its cylindrical shape means it is not something one would like in the pocket and the glass means extra care when handling the unit. A separate carrying pouch offered by Cloudious9 can be purchased which is more convenient and tailor-made for the unit.
Maintenance:
Most often than not, once the manufacturer gets the design right, everything falls into place as far as maintenance is concerned – the Hydrology9 is no different. Everything comes apart so easily. Simply unscrew all the parts and the non-electronic parts can be cleaned with a cloth laced with isopropyl alcohol. Cleaning pads and brushes included in the package can be used to keep the device in prime operating condition.
Final Verdict
The Hydrology is, by all means, a very good vaporizer that is pleasurable to use. It certainly has its own downside as do all other vaporizers out there. However, it has a lot going for it which seems to overshadow any reservations one might have.
From the moment you unbox the unit and turn it on, it creates an indelible first impression that warms you up for what’s to come. For a device with advanced features like the Hydrology9, it is actually easy to use. No matter how many vaporizers you have used before, the Hydrology9 have enough new tricks that will leave you in awe!
