Tempest 2 Induction Heater Settings

Higher fill-weight balls store heat longer → smoother, slower heat-up
Lower fill-weight balls heat up faster → quicker, punchier hit
The fill weights listed are approximate, actual ball sizes can vary slightly.
Lower the YLL 3.0 wattage to pre-heat the bowl more before your draw. This gives a faster ramp-up once you start inhaling, which is especially beneficial for mouth-to-lung (short puffs) use.
The temperature settings on The Wand function as a timer rather than indicating actual temperature. Wand temperatures are for V3 adapter until “Time Over”.
V1 adapter: +50 °C | V2 (plastic) adapter: –20 °C
