Review: Loto Labs Legend

<\/h3>\nHow it Works<\/h3>\n
Slightly confusing at first, it\u2019s actually quite straightforward to use. Install all the required glass pieces and make sure the vapor path is airtight. Your best bet to putting the device together is by watching the Loto Labs Legend setup video<\/a>. Why it doesn\u2019t come fully assembled before it arrives is beyond us. Perhaps they\u2019re afraid the glass pieces may break in transit?<\/p>\nWhen ready to go, slide a susceptor in, choose your heat setting with the dial and wait a few seconds. Touch your concentrates to the hot steel susceptor and inhale strongly! You may also connect the Loto Labs Legend via Bluetooth and tune into the app to unlock a few more features and even firmware updates, which we like to see.<\/p>\n

Temperature Flexibility<\/h3>\n
The Legend has 6 temperature settings to rotate between, though we\u2019re not actually advised as to what these are! A bit of an oversight we say, as the people buying this device likely aren\u2019t your ordinary consumers.<\/p>\n
Supposedly, left on at the highest temperature, the susceptor will climb all the way to 900\u00b0F\/482\u00b0C, the same temperature range that the Source Orb 4 Signature Kit<\/a> has,<\/span> though we\u2019re not able to confirm. Still, it\u2019s a good bit of versatility and we\u2019ve achieved different vapor traits from each step in the temp range.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

<\/p>\n
Vapor Quality<\/h3>\n
The all glass vapor path is a big up. You get a very clean flavor, not tainted or seasoned by any metals, plastics, or rubbers.<\/p>\n
The bubbler lets the hits cool down sufficiently before reaching your lungs and leads to a nice and smooth experience something similar you can get using wax pens such as the\u00a0Utillian 5<\/a>.<\/p>\nThe Legends can milk up and get pretty thick hits quite well. We wouldn\u2019t say quite as well as a really well done hit from your traditional torch and banger setup, but it\u2019s pretty great if we\u2019re honest! Great flavor, nice and smooth, and you really get to taste your concentrates properly.![\"Loto](\"https:\/\/tvape.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/loto-legend-main4.jpg\")

<\/p>\nManufacturing Quality<\/h3>\n
The Legend is beautiful in every right. We\u2019re really impressed by the aesthetic and finish and completely love how it looks. Other manufacturers should take note of these design cues! It is surprisingly light compared to what you\u2019d expect, I guess since there\u2019s no built-in battery like every other wax pen such as the Utillian 2 Wax Pen<\/a> has. The carrying case is overkill as well, but great to have nonetheless.<\/p>\nWe\u2019re so glad it uses an 18mm male glass adapter too meaning you can fasten a bunch of different bubblers with bottom insertion points onto it. Versatility is always fun.<\/p>\n
Included in the box is a standard kit including the device itself, bubbler top, two susceptors, two silicone holders, susceptor holder, carb cap, dab tool, cleaning brush, and power adapter. Fairly average without really going the extra mile, however. We would\u2019ve liked to see a few more spare parts included at such a steep price point. <\/div><\/div>

Battery Life<\/h3>\n
Though the Legend doesn\u2019t use batteries, we still felt the need to comment here. The power brick is large and a bit chunky for our liking. With the amount of unused space in the Legend, they couldn\u2019t have figured out a way to have a power transformer inside the device and\/or removable batteries?<\/p>\n
The Focusvape Carta, Puffco Peak<\/a>, and Dr. Dabber Switch<\/a> all managed to do the same, how come the most expensive of the bunch with plenty of room to spare couldn\u2019t pull it off? That also damaged the portability and function of being tethered down. That’s such a shame too as we\u2019re sure battery life could\u2019ve been awesome considering how efficient induction heating is. Unfortunately, that\u2019s not the case here. <\/div><\/div>\n![\"Loto](\"https:\/\/tvape.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/loto-legend-portability.jpg\")
<\/h3>\nPortability<\/h3>\n
Being tethered down for the Loto Labs Legend<\/span> is a bit of a shame. While it\u2019s great to have group sessions and revel in your space-age device, the requirement of that barrel plug makes passing it around for sessions and bringing it around the house a hindrance.<\/p>\nUsers who prefer to vape while on the go usually prefer the more portable units like the Linx Blaze<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
\n![\"Loto](\"https:\/\/tvape.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/loto-legend-ease-of-use.jpg\")
<\/h3>\nEase of Use<\/h3>\n
Once you get the hang of it, it\u2019s quite easy to use and pass to friends to use. It seems like a foreign concept at first but you quickly discover it\u2019s quite intuitive.<\/p>\n
Cleaning is a bit of a process but very easy once you know how to take your device apart. As it\u2019s almost all glass for a vapor path, everything is easily serviced and can just be tossed into a container of isopropyl alcohol to sit for half an hour. After the time has elapsed, take the pieces off and give em a quick rinse and dry. Users who a looking for a device that is easier to use and beginner friendly in all aspects usually tend to prefer devices like the Linx Ember<\/a>.<\/span> <\/div><\/div>\n![\"Loto](\"https:\/\/tvape.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/loto-legend-discreetness.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Discreetness<\/h3>\n
It\u2019s gorgeous but not stealthy in the slightest. This is a beautiful centerpiece made to be an electronic dab station, and there\u2019s no way you\u2019re convincing most people it\u2019s just a fancy vase. However, many users who prefer being low key usually tend to like units such as the Linx Hypnos Zero<\/a> which is petite and easy to carry around when out and about.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n![\"Loto](\"https:\/\/tvape.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/loto-legend-overall-experience.jpg\")
Overall Experience<\/h3>\n
We have mixed feelings about it! It\u2019s simply beautiful, has great functions, and overall really brings that wow factor. On the other hand, dropping half a grand for an electric dab rig is a big chunk.<\/p>\n
We can\u2019t help but feel like they could\u2019ve integrated the power brick\/batteries to cut down the size and chunkiness in group sessions.<\/p>\n
No precise numbers when it comes to temperature control is also a big oversight and the few accessories included make us wonder if we\u2019re not overpaying a little here. Still, it\u2019s a really boutique device and if you\u2019re looking for a top class device to wow your friends, this might be your next piece.<\/p>\n
If you are looking for an e-rig that is much more portable and can also handle dry herbs, we suggest checking out the Focus V Tourist.<\/p>\n
