The DaVinci MIQRO is an ultra-compact portable vaporizer with a replaceable battery system and digital controls. Somehow, it manages to condense all of the DaVinci IQ’s worthwhile features into a smaller container, making it easier than ever to carry around a DaVinci vaporizer in your pocket or purse. But all this aside, the real question is: is it worth buying? In short, the answer is yes- the MIQRO is absolutely worth every dollar. To understand how we came to this conclusion, read on.

Pros

User-Changeable Battery

When it comes to portable vaporizers, it’s nearly impossible to ignore the battery life factor. When it’s too short and the battery dies too quick, otherwise awesome sessions can be cut short, leaving you wondering why you spent all that money on a hi-tech gizmo that can’t make it through the day. This is where the MIQRO’s user-replaceable battery design comes into play. With it, you can swap out a drained battery for a fresh one at any time in order to continue vaping without waiting first for the vape to recharge. This means that you can vape as much as you want, assuming you have enough herb and batteries.

Adjustable Oven

Having a big oven/bowl area to pack full of herb can be a good thing, but what if you’re just trying to take a little puff or get down with some micro-dosing? In these types of scenarios, it can be nice to have a smaller oven, which is where the MIQRO’s adjustable oven comes into play. With it, you can choose whether or not you want to pack a little or a lot, leaving you with the option to choose what amount is right for you. This is one of the most innovative features that we’ve seen included in a dry herb vape and it’s not a gimmick, it’s practical, as its adjustable oven pearl allows you to reduce the size of the oven by up to 50%. Great for when you just want to pack a snapper, take a few puffs, and move on with your life.

Fast Heat Up Time

While some dry herb portables take well over a minute to heat up, the MIQRO is not of that camp. No, the MIQRO is quick. Less than a minute. After having been idle, it’ll heat right up to 370°F in just 39 seconds. That’s fast. And that means: no waiting around for minutes while your vape heats up. Pack it up, turn it on, and within a matter of seconds you’re puffing on some tasty herb. That’s the MIQRO way and we’re loving it.

Session Programming

What DaVinci calls “SMART PATHS” – we call session programming. With this advanced temperature programming feature, you can actually tell it what temperatures you want to hit throughout your session, when you want to hit them, and how long to hold them. This way, you don’t have to make any adjustments partway through your sessions, you just load up one of your paths and get right to vaping, letting the vaporizer take care of the rest.

Pocket Friendly

While there are vaporizers like the Mighty by Storz & Bickel and the Hydrology9 by Cloudious9 that will hardly fit in your pocket on a good day, there are vaporizers that will fit comfortably into just about any pocket and the MIQRO is one of them. At just a bit over three inches long, it’s easily compact enough to fit into a purse, bag, and just about any regular-sized pocket you might think to stuff it in. This is one vaporizer that doesn’t just claim to be portable, it is portable.

Super Clean Vapor

If you’ve ever used a vaporizer that just tastes bad, you probably already know how important the materials used in the construction of a vaporizer’s vapor path can be. Fortunately, DaVinci’s product engineers had the wisdom to take this into consideration and as a result, they opted for what is perhaps the smartest material choice they could have made: zirconium ceramic, which is seemingly the perfect material for constructing vapor pathways as it offers the main benefit of glass, but without its major drawback. What we mean by this is that it’s inert like glass, which is why the vapor tastes so good (no distortion of taste), only it’s about twenty times stronger so you don’t have to worry nearly as much about it breaking. The end result is some of the tastiest, purist vapor that we’ve ever seen produced by a portable vaporizer. And yeah, It really is that good.

Powerful Hits

As we’ve come to expect from DaVinci’s vaporizers, the MIQRO is a powerful vapor producer. This is not a vaporizer that you hit and wonder where all the vapor is, it’s the opposite. Instead of wispy flows of vapor, you get good, hard hitting, and powerful hits that are so strong you’ll wonder if it’s time to put the pearl into use and reduce the oven size. Thick, highly visible, and extremely tasty vapor is what the MIQRO is all about.

Boost Mode

The MIQRO boasts a lot of features, but if there’s one feature that really stands out, it’s the boost mode. With boost mode, you can fully engage the heating element and crank up the temperature with the press of a button. All you do is press the button and hold it for as long as you want the temperature to continue rising. It’ll rise rapidly until it reaches the maximum temperature and hold it there until you release the button, providing an excellent way to quickly squeeze out the rest of the active ingredients in your herb before you call it quits or pack up another.

Cons

No Concentrate Support

This is probably the biggest downside to the MIQRO’s design: it doesn’t support concentrates. So if you’ve got some oil or some sticky wax, you’re probably going to want to use a different vaporizer because this one simply isn’t designed for such substances. This aside, it does do the one thing that it sets out to do quite well: vaporize dry herbs. And we say quite well, we mean it’s awesome, but that still doesn’t change the fact that it’s not designed to support concentrated blends. So if you want a concentrate vape, you might want to look elsewhere because the MIQRO is for dry herbs only.

Long Charge Time

It takes anywhere from 1.5 to 2 hours to fully recharge the MIQRO. This isn’t very fast. In fact, it’s quite the wait. Fortunately, it has a user-replaceable battery design that allows you to swap out dead batteries for fresh ones, eliminating this otherwise drawn out downtime. Subsequently, we would never actually complain about its battery life because so long as you have some spare batteries on hand that are charged, you can vape for as long as you want without worrying about when it’s going to run out of juice.

Conclusion

The Final Consensus

The DaVinci MIQRO is one of the best dry herb portables ever made. It has a range of useful features, a reasonable price tag, compact design, and insanely good vapor production. If you’re looking for a good daily-use vape that you can take with you wherever you go, look no further than the MIQRO – it’s everything you’re looking for and more at a price you can afford.
