It's 2022, who has the best cart now?

Also what pricing you find reasonable?

That is any one of 3-5 zirconias going around

Hand formed and polished carbon/glass prototypes:
2 hole carbon glass ceramic coil
3 hole carbon glass quartz coil
3 hole carbon glass ceramic coil
4 hole carbon glass quartz coil

3 hole machine formed zirconia (wolk, ascera)
3 hole machine formed zirconia (avd blend) with ceramic coil

AVD is 4 holes. But if you wanna believe 3… By all means.

Not the specimen I observed. Maybe they are picking up new supply?

These are 3 hole, not sure on the coil material.

Damn good carts tho.

try @FTLD-X . @Wolkentek is impossible to get a hold of. Make sure they ship from China because if they ship from canada, they’ll force you to pay double duties

You can reach out to me. We have USA distributors with inventory. We are in fact 3 hole machine formed Zirconia Ceramic + FKM (Viton) gaskets.

AVD is a crazy story… - they’re splitting to a new company called AVEO. AVD’s marketing team tried to split from the manufacturing team. It’s the same play that happened with Verified Smart carts.

They (Verified before they were Verified) repped AVD for a while - built up the marketing and socials, then quite literally stole the socials and contacts. They swapped to a cheaper manufacturer who tried to duplicate the product, cut corners, did not make compliance, and went down.

The marketing team (who I will not name as I don’t want to get swept up in the drama) who owned distribution for AVD in USA tried to pull a very similar move. They even got the plant manager to switch sides.

The owner and brains behind AVD, Johnathan, told them to kick rocks (the details are pretty funny to be honest) and now he’s started a new brand called AVEO. AVEO is what AVD wants to be but can’t. The QA, connections, and manufacturing practices went with J, and now AVD as a brand is sinking. Failure rates are up, quality is down, and there’s little to no prospects for innovation.

This is combined with the fact that there are huge pending lawsuits for IP over AVD that will take years before the dust settles. If you’re thinking of using AVD or already use them, reach out to us. We can put you through to people who are in the know and give you the low down, and connect you to the best possible prices for AVEO (The true AVD’s new name if I’m being honest… marketing is useless if it’s not backed by solid product and best practices).

AVEO is pricing out AVD and matching / beating them in quality. We’re partnering with AVEO to offer the best metal and the best zirconia carts on the market. ASCERA for Zirconia and AVEO for metal.

We will be in ICBC Berlin, and Cannacon Chicago trade shows this year, and AVEO is a part of our booth. So if any of these things resonates with you, give me a DM and we’ll chat. If you’re planning to be at the events, let’s connect!

Just recently started rocking those EZ Press AVDs and I love em. We are getting great feedback too.
Feels/performs a lot like a CCell to me. But they are less expensive and they ship them to us in a way that works seamlessly with out filler/capper. They’re great to work with.

We also manufacture and sell zirconia ceramic carts. But we customize the materials, features, and branding around the customer’s needs.

Yeah, I think every cart manufacturer offers OEM. :joy:

We differentiate ourselves through compliance documentation (QA/QC, MSDS, COA’s) in a package that should pass you through Health Canada or any CA audit. We manufacture to ISO 13485, with certifications to prove it.

We also tailor our carts to fit your viscosity (4 configs available for 4 ranges of oils). And finally, we have the most efficient automation pre-rack solution for ATG machines and Thompson Duke, if you’re using automation.

You guys can check out info on our automation solution at: Ascera.ca/a-block

We do 3 viscosity sample kits if you need to test for viscosity match. Most distillate works in the highs, most live resin with high terp needs medium or lows. I’ve mentioned this in another thread already, so I won’t go into details here.

You can learn more by reading about ASCERA here.

Any questions, feel free to DM me. I don’t post a lot here because, well, we’re busy as hell. But I check my DM’s and try to respond ASAP.

There are a lot of people claiming Zirconia quality, not a lot of them have done anything beyond place an order from China. There’s a lot more to this game than landing the carts. If you’re not assuring compliance and quality through testing and certifications, you’re just gambling.

Reach out, and we’ll talk!

When did Forums turn into companies ruthlessly bashing their competitors. Back in my day that’s the what the forums were about. It was people giving honest feedback not companies crying about sand in their panties. Anyways, loving all the perspective on this post that’s actually unbiased.

Good for him. Quality of business, people and product matters.

Ive tried many vape systems and vape carts from all over…avd carts were always my top pick. And I’m VERY picky. Been using real CDT for about 5 years now making my own… ThcA diamond oil and all kinds of goods. Sho as well when I can find.

I’m a small small guy but I’m just saying I really like the good avd stuff.

I know some ppl think everyone just holding ballz but I’m speaking from experience… been getting the carts since the white boxes

I always liked y’all b/c you stamped your carts as well. I really appreciate that…quality control shows.

*Cheap crappy vapes don’t give you batch numbers …:thinking: Why? Well then there’s no way of proving anything. The guy that fills it with trash distillate and fake terps isn’t held responsible or the company that used coat hangers to make the vape isnt responsible…

Those cheap vapes cost what ? $0.11 to make w slave labor? Nah I’m od’ing…

Long story long…I think
AVEO is going to do big things in the space.

:nerd_face: :sunglasses: since the white boxes (blank on the inside lid) :facepunch:

Less than 1% failure rate. Plus you can just tell they’re made well. The feel, the look, performance.

I like both of these as well
(best low temp battery I’ve come across) but not really into the vibrating…it is good for blind ppl though.

I’ll prob take you up on that sample offer. And I’ll be showing love to your new site and brand for sure.

I have a few friends that use avd and always speak highly of yall. Salute cannabis nerds. :muscle::muscle::nerd_face:

Thanks making high quality.

Where does one buy AVD screw on carts, without being a business? Brand king seems to only have press ons. I reached out to AVD over email a while ago and they basically said If i’m not buying 1000 at a time get lost.
