The new Angus Rubies version has ruby balls which provide better flavour and a larger thermal battery for an all round improved experience, especially when used through a water tool with long, repeated inhales! It also has an upgraded 100W halogen bulb with a much thicker element, this makes it far more resistance to knocks and drops. The upgraded bulb also allows for faster heat times and a stronger heating response, making for an all round upgrade to the unit's performance!

The Angus Rubies 100w by YLL Vape has fast become one of our favourite herb specific vaporizers, portable or otherwise! This particular vaporizer provides a specific kind of satisfaction which is hard to match! The easiest comparison we can manage is that this is kind of like an S&B Mighty, it's very easy to use, does what it does very well and uses a hybrid heating system. However unlike the Mighty the Angus provides excellent flavour as well as excellent vapor production and complete satisfaction! It also has user replaceable batteries so you can charge two while vaping, avoiding the need for down time! A must for regular vapers.
Having five pre-set heat temperatures and a boost mode the Angus is capable of accurately vaporising material between 180-230C (five heat settings plus boost mode!) making it a combustion safe vape. You'd be hard pressed to combust in this without accidentally blowing herb into the heater (never do this to any vape!). If you like the ability to bake to a very dark brown colour while retaining excellent flavour through the session, alongside the ability to vape the entire chamber contents in a few big inhales, then the Angus is probably the one for you! On a related note (kind of) you can also microdose with the Angus too, just put less in and crack on as normal! It provides plenty of convection to do this with no temperature adjustment required.
Boost mode is activate by holding down the button, the unit will vibrate to let you know when the new higher temperature has been reached. Release the button after finishing your inhale.
While the Angus does have a slightly larger overall size than many portables it more than makes up for this with it's incredible vapor producing capabilities and flavour. You can also get around 6 full sessions from a set of batteries. With the 0.25g capacity chamber this makes for a lot of vaping! With no other vapes in the rotation we do one battery change (both batteries) a day.
The Angus is primarily designed to be a session vape with a 5 minute cut out timer, however we've found that on the max settings, especially if you use boost mode, it's possible to vaporize the chamber contents in 3-4 massive inhales with just some wisps of vapor left after. If you want faster vapor production, ensure you don't pack the herb chamber too tightly, a looser pack will allow more airflow through for faster extractions! So while it does work very nicely as a session vape with shorter inhales, you can also just suck like your life depends on it and be appropriately rewarded for your efforts! As it should be. It also has a PEEK section above the herb chamber to make for easier loading with less spillage! The Angus has fairly free flowing airflow relative to other similar vapes and can be adjusted slightly. Simply rotate the dial containing the metal screen in the mouthpiece! Vapor comes out the Angus mouthpiece a little warm but very comfortable. We are having some upgrade mouthpieces made which make this the most comfortable!
Being fairly unique the Angus is the first large production Halogen based portable vaporizer on the market, the halogen heating system provides very reliable and accurate heating. To ensure reliability the Angus has also been through extensive drop testing and should survive multiple drops from around 5 feet high with only replaceable parts needing replacing (glass mouthpiece). The Halogen heating system does take a little while to heat up, for this reason we suggest turning it on, selecting your desired temperature then loading it up to reduce wait times. For follow up sessions it's quite a bit faster as it retains some heat.
The final thing to mention is the Water Pipe Adapter which is Stainless Steel and 14/18mm Male/Female compatible. It also has a straight through design which provides seriously free flowing air with very little restriction, for a portable! This can be hooked up to a wide variety of setups or used directly as a mouthpiece. You'll get hotter vapor if used direct but the amount of air and vapor you can pull through it is pretty special!

Tips
- Start heating then grind/load herb to avoid waiting for the full pre-heat
- Always close the glass mouthpiece straight after vaping to avoid breakages
- Fill the chamber to the o-ring, not to the top of the PEEK section, this is just to assist loading
- Between inhales if you put it down, always place the Angus on it's side to avoid knocking it over
- Using a medium grind avoids compaction against the mouthpiece or WPA screen when inhaling hard or using the Angus upside down in a water tool. A fine grind is totally fine to use if you're happy to inhale more slowly or give the contents a little poke at some point during your session!
- Don't tamp! Compressing the material will stop the airflow passing through the herb properly and isn't required. Tidy it in in there and poke in any mess but you don't need to apply downward pressure for the best results.
- Hold the device away from the metal ring around the top. This acts as a heat dissipator so gets quite hot especially after a couple of sessions!
Cleaning
- Super easy. Soak mesh mouthpiece filter screen in ISO, swap with a spare. every few days and wipe the solid Steel filter screen with an ISO wipe while warm.
- Weekly, remove the top mouthpiece section (Cooling Unit), dismantle, soak in ISO then rinse and dry
- Change the screen in the herb chamber as required - Almost never
- That's pretty much it. It's fairly easy to dismantle and none of the parts are tiny!
Important Notes
- Since the Angus essentially acts as a hand-warmer this product is likely not suitable for Diabetic customers
- When used with dosing caps the top Cooling Unit (big black PEEK section with the mouthpiece attached) may sit at an angle, it still forms a seal for vaping but please don't purchase this device if this will bug you!
- Please note that for international orders we cannot ship this product with batteries, these will need to be sourced locally. Orders with batteries included will be switched over for the Angus Rubies only versions and the difference refunded.
- The Angus body is made from wood, this grows naturally so comes in a variety of grains, with knots and natural marks. This is natural variation and this variation is to be expected, so having a body which contains these marks and is different from all other bodies is normal, being that they are all unique.
- Wood naturally holds a small amount of water, due to the design of the Angus with a central heater which retains lots of heat due to the balls inside, with very regular use the wood can shrink slightly as it dries. This is not a functional issue with all the internal parts still being normally aligned. If left unused for a day or two (depending on local relative humidity and temperature) this will return to the original size, however it is nothing to worry about in functional terms.
