 The following demonstration is for informational purposes only, please do not attempt. What happens when you drop your VapCap? When it hits the concrete, how much damage will it endure simply falling out of your hand? How hard does it have to hit or get hit to stop working? We conducted six hard drops in sudden stops with our 2020 M to see what kind of practical and impractical abuse our stainless steel vaporizer could sustain. We'll show you the damage and whether they live to click another day on this episode of Exploring the Dinoverse. Begin, I dropped our 2020 M on our Studio Concrete just to see what happens and it now has a small character mark which in no way affects functionality. We did this to demonstrate what kind of wear and tear is expected when dropped from a normal height. Now let's speed things up. Biddy Ben brought his bike to work and dropped the M at about 15 miles an hour. And we're off. We're gaining speed and oh he dropped his VapCap onto the pavement. It inherited a few dents, maybe a little scratch, but really nothing that affects overall functionality. So we added some more speed. We doubled the speed and dropped our 2020 M out of a vehicle. There's the cap coming back into the frame and bouncing back so we can still keep side of it. The cap looks a little damaged. I wonder if it still worked. Seems like it took a pretty nice little impact there. So far we've dropped our VapCaps in three different situations. But what happens when an object falls onto our M? A little 18 inch crescent wrench just happened to fall off of our workbench and landed squarely on our 2020 M. It did leave a little kiss mark, but other than that I think it survived. For our next experiment we fired our M with a slingshot into a storage container. Three, two, one. The results were not nearly as devastating as we're anticipating. There is a small dent on the mouthpiece and there is a small exchange of paint in the process. But we'll take a closer look after our last experiment. We applied some heat and pressure and made an M out of M's in our parking lot. And here's one of them. So how much abuse can a little 2020 M really take? The drop onto concrete just from a standing condition produced a few small dents on the end of the cap. Nothing to affect calibration or overall performance of the device. The stem looks fine, nothing of real significance anywhere other than on the cap because that landed first. Clicks fine. Our M dropped from the bike. A little bit more of a ding on the mouthpiece end and some slightly deeper dents in the end of the cap. But again, nothing I'd be terribly concerned about. Brush off the dust and again still completely functional. Cool down click. Normal. This one dropped from the car at about 30 miles an hour has the most significant dents out of all of our experiments in the cap. Minor dents in the mouthpiece. I wonder if this cap still works. Heat up click. But I think this one's cool down click is a little bit delayed. It clicked once. This cap is not as happy as the other caps. When you see dents this bad the likelihood of your cap being out of calibration are pretty good. So if you're familiar with your device and just doesn't seem to work the same you might want to replace your cap. Otherwise if it still works it still works. Our device shot from the slingshot had again a little bit of a dent and a little bit of paint transferred right here in the mouthpiece and another little bit right here. But other than that it seemed to hit the metal in a pretty flat orientation and definitely survived. There's no significant damage or dents to the cap so this cap is in perfectly functional condition. No apparent damage should heat up just fine. Sounds good. And cool down click. And when we look at this one kissed by the wrench. Tip was kind of knocked a little bit out of position. We can see our little kiss mark right here. But see if we can push it back in. Yep popped right back in. All in all looks like this one has survived and is in perfectly fine operating condition. And finally the one that was heated and pressed into the pavement. Got a little bit of tar on it. There's a few more dents in the cap. Let's heat it up and see if it still works. Seems like the cap still clicks. Takes about the right amount of time to heat up. But something to keep in mind. When your cap is dented it can throw off the calibration not just on the heat up. But also on the cool down. So if it seems like your cap is taking an unusually long time to reset or click back for your cool down click. It may be time to replace it. It seems like this tip was a little bit loose. But it fits right back in. Stem is effectively undamaged other than some tar. Cap is still within calibration. Got a nice little dent right here. So it's not going to stand unless we put on a magnet. In conclusion. The DynaVap M is a rather durable product. It can handle a drop to the concrete. Even falls from a moving bike and a car. Sustained impact from a heavy tool. And even endure being slammed into a metal wall fired from a sling shot. When the dust settles and the tar cools. It appears the 2020M can even survive being pounded into the hot pavement. And in most cases of general abuse all you'll potentially need to replace is the cap. What kind of abuse has your VapCap endured?
