Product details

MAD Heaters Tempest Slim

The Tempest Slim by MAD Heaters is the most recent vaporizer installment in the MAD Heaters line up and boasts a nearly identical performance to its predecessor, The Tempest 2, but in a more affordable and more convenient slim sized body. The Tempest Slim’s tip and cap remain the same as the Tempest 2 and utilize the same technology for even and consistent heating and come pre-loaded with beads. The Tempest Slim’s body, however, is quite different: longer yet slimmer. The new body features a soft grip on the sleeve which feels nice to the touch as well as a less top-heavy design for a more balanced hold. Primarily the Tempest Slim is designed to retain the phenomenal performance that Tempest 2 enjoyers are familiar with, but with a more cost effective approach to manufacturing to make this unit more affordable for those who are looking for a top-of-the-line stem vaporizer.

How to use the Tempest Slim

Before use, disassemble the Tempest 2 and clean the components with isopropyl alcohol. (Note: please wipe the head assembly clean. Do not soak it as this can corrode internal components. Dry thoroughly.)

Reassemble the device and perform a burn off by heating the cap, while empty, until you hear the click. Allow it to cool and repeat 2-3 times to ensure any residues from cleaning or manufacturing have been burnt off.

Unscrew the cap and load your material without packing too tightly so that air can flow properly through your material. Screw the cap back on gently.

If using a torch, use a medium single or dual flam torch and hold the tip of the flame a little less than half an inch away from the cap while slowly rotating the device. Watch the visual indicator and listen for the click that indicates that it’s ready to use.

If using an induction heater, place the Tempest 2 into the induction heater set your temperature around 550 degrees Fahrenheit as a baseline (adjust as needed), insert the tip, and allow the heater to run until the heating cycle finishes.

Take a strong steady draw and use the stem’s carb hole to clear the vapor.

Important information about the Tempest Slim

The Tempest Slim can get hot with back-to-back use. Allow to completely cool between uses to avoid overheating.

Some Wand induction heaters may have an opening too narrow to be compatible with the Tempest Slim. Ensure your Wand has an opening of at least 14.0 mm. If necessary, use glass sanding paper to carefully widen it. If there is no wiggle room, do not attempt to use it, as the glass may break during heating.

*** IMPORTANT: When cleaning head assembly, it must be dried completely afterwards before re-assembling. Soaking the head assembly and letting it air dry can corrode the components of the head assembly. These cannot be warrantied or returned if they are corroded.
