The solid-state relay helps regulate heating temperature and reduce unnecessary temperature fluctuations.
Features include:
-
Real-time digital temperature display.
-
Adjustable temperature settings from 100°C to 240°C.
-
Factory default setting of 230°C.
-
Manufacturer-suggested equipment operating range of 200°C to 230°C.
-
Controlled heating designed to minimize overheating and cooling delays.
Always follow the vaporizer manufacturer's operating instructions and the applicable treatment product label.

An additional 1 Ah may provide enough energy for approximately ten 2 g vaporization cycles under suitable conditions.
-
The manufacturer advises against allowing battery voltage to fall below approximately 14.7–15V.
Battery performance varies with battery condition, capacity, ambient temperature, and operating conditions.
Important: Monitor battery voltage regularly and follow the battery manufacturer's discharge and safety requirements.

This construction makes the unit a practical choice for beekeepers who require portable equipment for outdoor use.
Straight Brass Outlet Tube
The InstantVap includes a 6 mm diameter brass outlet tube.
The straight tube design reduces bends where material could accumulate and allows access for cleaning if a blockage occurs.
The manufacturer specifies a 7 mm diameter hive opening for positioning the outlet tube.
The equipment is designed to remain stable when correctly positioned in the hive opening.
Do not lean on the vaporizer or place additional weight on the outlet tube.
