HOW TO USE

Easy to load and very low maintenance

The new screen and menus are a nice upgrade and modernize the Solo 2. Hold the middle and top buttons to turn it on, now press up or down to start heating the vape. It will automatically go to your last used temperature with the first button press. The vape heats up very quickly but it is not actually ready to go when it says it’s warm, as a rule of thumb I generally wait between 30 and 60 seconds to let vapor build up. When you use it for the first time make sure you wait until the Solo 2 is totally warm before inserting the glass stem, failure to do so can result in breakage.

You’ll find your Solo 2 very easy to load, you can scoop up ground herb with the stem or just place a whole bud in there and press it down for the best flavor. Now just insert the stem into the unit and inhale. The Solo 2 has improved draw resistance so the first hit is wispy but after the material warms up it pumps out serious vapor. I feel like the glass stem needs a shotgun hole though, because it’s tough to avoid leaving some vapor in the stem. To turn it off hold down the middle button or just wait for the automatic shut off. Tap out the stem to unload it, brush it out and soak it in isopropyl alcohol when necessary. The Solo 2 is very low maintenance.

FLEXIBILITY

Intended for dry herb only

The Solo 2 is really for dry herb only, although you can always do the classic concentrate and herb sandwich in the stem; in the Solo 2 it won't get too gummed up. It is awesome for dry herb. Pro tip: throw in some pressed kief, here is a kick-ass pollen press if you don't already have one - Push Press, thank me later 😉

BATTERY

Lasts for 20 sessions of 10 minute length

The battery life is awesome, the battery is not removable though, which is a shame. On the other hand it lasts forever, even with longer sessions, which is impressive. It will take a long time to charge and it cannot be charged via USB but it does have pass through ability, so you can use it while it's charging. The battery life is really impressive, they say it can last for up to 20 sessions of 10 minute length.

HEAT-UP TIME

Heats up in as little as 20 seconds

This is much improved over the first Solo, the Solo 2 heats up in as little as 20 seconds. If you pull on it right away the first hit will be wispy but the second hit is less so, if you wait 20 extra seconds after it’s heated up you will get nice vapor from the very first pull. I wish the temperature gauge was more accurate, I hate when vapes say they’ve heated up but they’re still not really ready to use yet. Still, the Solo 2 is very quick and you won’t be waiting long.

VAPOR QUALITY

This vaporizer really delivers flavor

The vapor is superb from the Solo 2, when using whole buds the flavor is knockout good. I change my bowls often because I’m a flavor chaser and this vaporizer really delivers flavor. The size of the hits are as big as you want, at 375F it puts out more vapor than many devices do at higher temperatures. It can be a little on the warm side and your throat can feel a little raspy after extended use, it isn’t that it’s harsh, it’s just not particularly smooth. Overall, vapor production is great, I really enjoy kicking back for a session with my Solo 2.

EFFICIENCY

Many hits and sessions from a single pack

Like the first version, the Solo 2 has amazing efficiency, a tiny bit of herb in your stem can produce many hits or even multiple sessions. My sessions were much longer than usual and I still got many hits and sessions from a single pack.

BUILD QUALITY

A military grade beast

Like all Arizer products this beast is military grade, it feels as solid as they come and doesn’t even get slightly warm with extended use. Your Solo 2 is also covered by one of the best warranties in the business. You never hear about Arizers breaking, so highest marks here.

STEALTH FACTOR

Large for a portable vaporizer

The Solo 2 is much more pocketable and portable than the original but it is still very large for a portable. It fits more into the semi-portable category, especially with the external glass stems that are required. The new shape is much better for travelling though.

EFFECTS

Average effects for this type of vaporizer

Like the original, the effects for the Solo 2 are about average for this type of vaporizer. The heater keeps up with multiple pulls so it’s very easy to get up to a better level quickly.

Strengths

The Solo 2 is extremely easy to use, this is a great vaporizer for first timers or people who don’t like fussing with lots of little parts. Every aspect of the old Solo has been improved upon. The new screen is simple but perfectly functional, like all Arizer products. There is a good airpath and quality materials are used, making the flavor amazing. The heater can handle back to back hits with regular frequency. The new shape makes it much easier to hold and transport than the original Solo. It is super easy to load, that’s something that is often overlooked in a quality vaporizer. It’s also a breeze to clean and will work with existing accessories and has the same size stems, which is always nice.

Weaknesses

The stem design makes it hard to clear, it needs a carb hole. A vaporizer this size should have a vibration motor included. A removable battery would have been nice too. My screen had a smudge behind the glass but it was a pre-production unit so I can’t fault it too much for that. Holding the button to turn it on takes too long, it should take only half that length of time. Also, the buttons don’t have the best feel, they’re kind of shaky and they rattle.

CONCLUSION

A great balance of simplicity and performance

The Arizer Solo 2 is a fantastic update to a venerable classic, it is one of the easiest vaporizers to use and has a rock-solid design. The vapor path is very pure and Arizer used excellent materials to achieve great flavor with heavy duty vapor production. The Solo 2 has superb battery life and you can preload stems to have several at the ready for a day out on the go. This is another great entry from Arizer and it is a perfect vaporizer for someone who wants a great balance of simplicity and performance.

Easy to use

Looked at a couple of youtube videos on how to use it. It is very straight forward and simple to use. This product is worth investing in the long run.

Love it but a weird taste

Super easy to use. Overall pretty happy except for the weird taste. I’ve tried a bunch of different strains. Cleaned it etc but there’s a weird taste when I take the first few hits. Then I kinda get used to it or it goes away....but I love not rolling or carrying any odour from it.

Would recommend in a heartbeat. Got my Solo 2 on sale. It showed up in perfect condition. They threw in a couple extras. Reliable delivery. Couldn't be happier.

Very happy with my new Solo 2

I had the Arizer Solo 1, so moving on to the 2 was logical. The Solo 2 heats up much faster, and has a much better draw than the Solo 1. I find my inhales pull in much more vapor without as much pull. Overall, the Airizer Solo 2 is an excellent product for the cost. I would not hesitate to buy another at the cost that Great White North has it offered at.

Purchase of Arizer Air 2

I ordered the wrong product in error. I immediately informed them. I advised them of the product I wanted. I received a response almost immediately advising me that they cancelled my order and proceeded to order the Arizor Air 2, which is what i wanted. You guys rock. Repeat customer.

Excellent product, excellent service

I came to GWN on a recommendation from a friend, and I wasn't disappointed. the Solo 2 is a solid vape and I particularly appreciated the extra time and care in how my package was packed, shipped and handled.

Great for your next vape

I nice step up in your vape game. I started with a Grindhouse shift and moved onto this. So far so good. It is user friendly and the simple vaping system is idiot proof. I always recommend buying a few different straws on here because you can find one that helps with high Temperatures and also cool attachments.

Not only am I incredibly satisfied with my Solo II, but I am even happier with my decision to buy from GWNVC. I did a lot of shopping around before pulling the trigger, and the customer experience is what made it an easy call. The rep who helped me with price matching and putting together my invoice was incredibly helpful and made the whole process easy. Sometimes price matching online can be a nightmare — not this time! I received my shipment surprisingly fast and everything came packaged well, including the individual glass stems. I have already recommended GWNVC to friends and will definitely be a loyal customer moving forward.
