To use your VapCap:

1. Most Important! Before your first use, please read all of these instructions and then do at

least two, preferably more than two, dry runs with nothing in the VapCap! This is very

important to become familiar with the operation of the unit and prevent unintentional

combustion residues.

2. The VapCap is unlike any other vaporizer, so give it a few tries empty to get the feel of its

unique temperature-indicating click. Heat the VapCap in a quiet area, listen and feel so you

know what you are looking for. If you are using a torch lighter, this should not take more

than 5 or 6 seconds. Heat the middle of the cap not the end and rotate while heating. If more

than 6 seconds go by and you don’t hear the click, stop heating and let it cool down.

3. If you severely overheat your VapCap it can be permanently damaged. It is very important

you hear the cool down click, or allow it to cool to the touch, before heating for the next

cycle. Repeat this procedure several times to get the feel of how this little unit operates.

4. When you are ready for the first use, let it cool down, then remove the cap from the VapCap.

5. Fill the VapCap chamber with your material of choice. This can be done easily by pushing the

VapCap into a container of your material and twisting. Pre-grinding your material is NOT

needed like when using a bat or hitter. If you prefer to grind, go coarse. Finely ground

material will get through the diffuser disc and into the unit.

6. Place the cap back on the VapCap.

7. Heat up the metal cap of your VapCap while rotating it, with the flame or heat source applied

to the last third of the metal cap. Try to only apply heat to the side of the cap and NOT the

end. This is not like lighting a smoking device.

8. Continue rotating and heating the cap until you hear and or feel a click - this means the

VapCap is ready!

9. Puff on the mouthpiece. Experiment a little here. If you draw with the air hole completely

plugged the flow will seem somewhat restricted. This is normal. Some find they get the best

result by taking a long, slow steady draw with the hole completely open, and others will

intermittently or lightly cover the air/vapor mix port. The way air flows through the VapCap

cools the vapor to provide a smooth experience.

10. Keep drawing as desired until you hear the click again, this means the VapCap has cooled

down.

11. When the vapor production diminishes, it is easy to reactivate. a. Make sure the VapCap has

re-clicked “to cool” before reheating for the next cycle. b. If you are not sure if it has re-

clicked, gently blow on the end to cool it. It may take up to 1 minute to reset.

12. When there is no longer any desirable vapor produced, and the cap has clicked “to cool”,

remove the cap. The consumed material can be either blown out the end, or the little tang

on the cap is also a wonderful “digger outer.”

Do you have a question about the DynaVap VapCap The VonG i and is the answer not in the manual?

The VapCap is a unique, temperature-indicating vaporizer designed for efficient material consumption and a smooth user experience. Its primary function is to heat your chosen material to vaporization temperature without combustion, indicated by an audible and tactile "click." This device is distinct from other vaporizers due to its reliance on external heat sources and its mechanical temperature indication system.

Function Description:

The VapCap operates by heating a metal cap, which then transfers heat to the material chamber. The cap is engineered to "click" when it reaches the optimal vaporization temperature, signaling to the user that it's ready for inhalation. This click also serves as a cool-down indicator, clicking again when the device has cooled sufficiently for another heating cycle or for safe handling. This dual-click system is crucial for preventing overheating and ensuring consistent vaporization.

The device is designed to be used with a variety of materials, which are loaded into the VapCap chamber. Unlike many other vaporizers or smoking devices, the VapCap does not require pre-grinding of material; it can be loaded by simply pushing and twisting the VapCap into a container of your material. However, if grinding is preferred, a coarse grind is recommended to prevent fine material from passing through the diffuser disc into the device.

Inhalation is performed through the mouthpiece. The VapCap features an air/vapor mixing opening, which can be fully opened or partially covered by the user's finger to customize the draw resistance and vapor density. This airflow system also contributes to cooling the vapor, providing a smoother experience.

Important Technical Specifications:

While specific dimensions and material compositions are not explicitly detailed, the manual highlights several functional specifications:

Heating Mechanism: External heat source (e.g., torch lighter, flame).
Temperature Indication: Audible and tactile "click" system.
Heating Time: Typically 5-6 seconds when using a torch lighter. Overheating beyond 6 seconds without a click can damage the device.
Material Compatibility: Designed for various materials, with no pre-grinding required (coarse grind recommended if grinding).
Airflow Control: User-controlled air/vapor mixing opening for customized draw.
Cool-down Time: Can take up to 1 minute for the device to reset and click again after use.

Usage Features:

The VapCap offers several user-friendly features that enhance its overall experience:

Intuitive Temperature Control: The "click" system eliminates guesswork, ensuring material is heated to the correct temperature for vaporization without combustion. This is a significant advantage over devices that require manual temperature monitoring.
Efficient Material Consumption: The precise heating and vaporization process helps to conserve material, as it is heated only to the necessary temperature and not combusted.
Portability: While not explicitly stated, the compact nature of the device, implied by its size and the need for an external heat source, suggests high portability.
Customizable Draw: The air/vapor mixing opening allows users to tailor their inhalation experience, from a restricted draw with dense vapor to a more open draw with lighter vapor.
Easy Loading: The simple push-and-twist loading method simplifies preparation, especially for users who prefer not to pre-grind their material.
Quick Re-activation: Once the VapCap has cooled and clicked, it can be quickly reheated for subsequent vaporization cycles, allowing for continuous use.

Maintenance Features:

The manual provides insights into the maintenance aspects of the VapCap, primarily focusing on post-use cleaning and material removal:

Easy Material Removal: After use, when no more desired vapor is produced and the cap has "clicked" to cool, the cap can be removed. The spent material can be either blown out from the end of the device or removed using the small "poker" on the cap, which doubles as a convenient tool for clearing the chamber. This integrated tool simplifies the cleaning process.
Prevention of Damage: The manual emphasizes the importance of listening for the cool-down click or allowing the device to cool before reheating to prevent permanent damage from overheating. This highlights a key aspect of device care.
No Complex Cleaning Procedures Detailed: While material removal is covered, the manual does not delve into extensive cleaning procedures for the device itself (e.g., soaking in solvents). This suggests that the design might inherently minimize the need for complex cleaning, or that basic cleaning is sufficient. The focus is more on operational maintenance to ensure longevity and proper function.
Durability: The warning against permanent damage from severe overheating implies that, with proper use and adherence to the clicking mechanism, the VapCap is designed to be durable.

In summary, the VapCap is a cleverly engineered, user-centric vaporizer that prioritizes efficiency, ease of use, and a consistent vaporization experience through its unique mechanical temperature indication system. Its design encourages mindful use to ensure longevity and optimal performance.
