[Glow Hyper X2] How did the re-release updated version and the early lot version change? Differences between old and new and how to tell them apart

Hello,Heated cigarette blogger Genki (@MOQLOG_JP)It is.

the other daygloFrom Mr., at one time.Suspension of SalesI was.Glow Hyper X2のupdated versionwas sent to us ahead of time!.

I'm sure many of you are wondering how things have changed,Learn about the differences and how to distinguish between the re-released updated version and the temporarily suspended initial lot version..

Why Glow Hyper X2 temporarily suspended sales

Officials only state that the device was updated "based on input and feedback from users who used the initial lot.

However, when I called the customer center the other day about the device exchange, I confirmed with them that they had stopped selling the device, and I could clearly hear the reason.

As you can see from this exchange, also,Suspended salesThe barrels were heated.

Not only were they simply hot and dangerous, but they also caused so many thermal errors that they could not be smoked continuously, which is why they stopped selling them.

In other words, the resumption of sales is due to improvements in this area....

So today, we will examine the differences and how to tell them apart, as well as whether they are really no longer hot!

Glow Hyper X2 Difference between the initial lot version and the updated version (1)

Looking at just the devices like this, I honestly cannot tell any difference at all.

That's right, we have updated the internal part of the system, so it is not easy to tell just by looking at the side.

I looked around for any differences, and found one modest difference.

On the back of the Glow Hyper X2, as shown in the photo, the following is written in small English

Glow Hyper X2 initial lot version

X2 G500 Nicoventures trading Ltd. Global House, 1 Water Street, London, WC2R 3LA, United Kingdom.

Glow Hyper X2 updated version

G500 Nicoventures trading Ltd. Global House, 1 Water Street, London, WC2R 3LA, United Kingdom.

There was a difference in the presence or absence of the letter X2.

Perhaps it was the model number, but it was also slightly different.

Glow Hyper X2 Difference between the initial lot version and the updated version (iii)

The packaging is almost the same, but there are some obvious differences besides the product code.

It is the date of manufacture.

Glow Hyper X2 initial lot version

Apparently, the early rod version I have was manufactured on June 12, 2022.

I can't believe you didn't notice the glitch even though it was completed quite early, as the release was in July... I was a little lax in my testing!

Glow Hyper X2 updated version

A feature of Glow's devices, which is not common in Icos and Plume, is that most devices have a sticker with the date of manufacture on them.

The updated version was listed as August 31, 2022, so you can assume it is the updated version from models around this time.

How to recognize the updated version

As we have shown, there are subtle differences, but honestly, you can hardly tell just by looking at the device,The best way to tell the initial lot version from the updated version is to look at the date on the back!.

Since it is the date of manufacture, it is likely that more and more products will be introduced with newer and newer dates, so you should remember that anything manufactured after late August = updated version!

If you are buying official GLO limited edition colors for resale, etc., we recommend that you buy with this date in mind!.

However, the Glow Hyper X2 is quite reasonable at 1,980 yen, and with free shipping available at the online store, there is no need to buy a resale product, though.

Has the updated version of the Glow Hyper X2 improved the hotness?

Now, let's talk about the differences and how to tell them apart,The real question on everyone's mind is, has the symptom of intense heat in that barrel area been improved?That is what I mean.

I just had the initial lot version, so I actually compared the cigarettes and verified the following two points for your reference.

• What is the temperature of the barrel section?
• How many can you smoke in a row?

Since we did not have professional tools, we conducted a reckless experiment using a thermometer, but we did obtain numerical results.

Verification #1: Barrel temperature after two consecutive runs

As expected, the barrels were quite hot in both cases since they were used two in a row.

To be frank, at about the 2 minute mark, I would say it was extremely hot, but by the end of the smoke, I clearly felt a difference in temperature.

Here are the results.

Glow Hyper X2 initial lot version

The thermometer, which we use in our home on a daily basis, showed the temperature rising rapidly, and when it reached 42 degrees, the letter "H" appeared.

The result was satisfactory because it was hot even when held by hand.

Glow Hyper X2 updated version

The updated version may have reduced the heating in the second half or had a better cooling effect, but in any case, the temperature was much calmer and rose slowly.

Finally, the measurement ended with a beep at 40.9 degrees, and it seems to have improved a lot.

Verification #2: After using two in a row, can the third be smoked?

With early lot versions, sometimes it is not even possible to do two in a row, but this time they managed to work, so we decided to compare them with the third one.

Regarding this, I tried holding both units and pressing the heating button at the same time, and the results were as expected.

The top one is the initial lot version, and the bottom one that can be heated is the updated version. Only the center of the initial lot version blinks, meaning that it cannot be heated due to a "temperature error.

I had expected this from the time I measured the temperature,The third one only smoked the updated version..

By the way, if you use three in a row, the updated version is indeed a hot mess, and perhaps four in a row would be difficult. I think so.

In any case, we found the updated version to be a solid improvement in terms of temperature and, accordingly, continuous use.

Verification #3: Is there any difference in sucking?

As for the "smoking sensation," I will answer this question completely subjectively, since there are no numerical values or LED flashing signs as mentioned earlier.

The answer is simple,I didn't notice any difference from the beginning to the middle, and even in the second half..

I thought that they might have weakened the temperature in the second half to keep the barrel temperature down, but I will tell you that it does not make that much difference at least.

If you feel any difference, please leave a comment.

No other differences

It's not surprising,The package design and set contents were unchanged..

There are no differences in device design, etc., so please consider this just an update around heating.

We hope you will refer to the review article linked below for more information on design features, specifications, and other selling prices.

postscript

Today I got a buzz cut on my hair that had been growing out for a long time.

I originally grew my hair long like an idiot because I admired Mike Maki, but it became so annoying that I changed it to short.

It was hard for a 40+ year old man to wear long hair, so I went with an old man's haircut.

Short hair is easy after all, so I'll leave it at that for today.
