With the original IQ, you could remove the flavor chamber by hooking it with the stir tool and pulling it out. This method only removes the chamber cap with the IQ2. Davinci wants you to use the pointy end of the stir tool in between the chamber and silicone and pry it out.

Can you run concentrates in the DaVinci IQ vaporizer?
DaVinci wanted to make the best possible dry herb vaporizer possible when it was designing the Davinci IQ. For this reason, it built the vaporizer around dry herbs – and nothing else. This means you cannot run concentrates in the device. Personally, this doesn’t bother me.
Is the DaVinci IQ the best weed oven?
The Davinci IQ features a fairly sizeable bowl (or oven). You can get a fair amount of weed in it, easily enough for a solid couple of sessions. And because the IQ uses a ceramic oven, the flavor you get from your herbs is always super-tasty.
What is boost mode on the DaVinci IQ?

Do I need to stir my IQ vape?
Conduction vapes don’t typically need to be stirred, but sometimes you can get a few last hits to finish the load if you stir a bit. The IQ heats from almost all sides with the "Pearl" being the only part that isn’t heating the herbs, so the top of the load might be lighter than the rest.

How To Use DaVinci IQ Vaporizer - Beginners Quick Guide
The DaVinci IQ vaporizer is one of the most popular additions to DaVinci’s best-selling line of dry herb vapes. From its first launch in 2012, DaVinci has gone on to become a leading company in the vaporizer market. With the IQ vaporizer, the company introduced a fresh design with Smart Path technology, featuring four different temperature paths.
Charging the Davinci IQ
The DaVinci IQ is powered by a single 3500mAh 18650 battery, which you can charge by plugging the micro-USB charger into the device for about four hours. If you have access to an external charger, you can cut the charge time in half by using a wall outlet.
Operating the DaVinci IQ
Press the power button five times to switch on your device and do the same when you want to shut it off. Click the power button once to switch between heating modes. Use the up and down buttons to switch through Smart Paths or temperature settings.

DaVinci IQ flavor chamber
The IQ’s ‘flavor chamber’ sits between the oven and mouthpiece of the device. It’s a chamber made of zirconia ceramic that you can load with different herbs to enhance your vaping experience. It’s not for loading your cannabis though because it only lightly heats the contents to just give off the essence of the materials.
Your first session with the DaVinci IQ
Upon opening your IQ, as with any vaporizer, it’s wise to run what's known as a burn-off. This is because residue from the manufacturing and shipping process may find its way into your device. The only thing you want to be vaping is your herb of choice!
Cleaning & maintenance
All removable parts of your DaVinci IQ can be disassembled for optimal cleaning. Immerse all pieces in isopropyl alcohol overnight then rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry before reassembling. Don’t submerge non-removable parts of the device in any liquid.
Grind fine
Conduction vapes like the DaVinci IQ like your material to be ground to a medium to fine consistency so the heat can conduct evenly throughout your pack. Finishing grinders like the Magic Flight Finishing Grinder or New Vape’s Fine Grinder will work great. If not, you can also turn your regular 3 or 4 piece grinder upside down for a finer grind.
Medium pack, tamp light
You’re going to want to lightly tamp the top of your load to help the heat make its way through the bowl of your IQ. I like to fill it to the top of the white ceramic, just below the black gasket, and then use the IQ’s lid “Pearl" to tamp it down as I close the oven.
EASY DRAW
Easy does it with a slow to medium draw speed. Most conduction vaporizers get overwhelmed if you pull too hard, and the IQ is no different. A gentle, cigar-like puff is best to start, and I like to settle into short gentle draws like I’m sipping on a glass of hot tea.
Should I stir?
Conduction vapes don’t typically need to be stirred, but sometimes you can get a few last hits to finish the load if you stir a bit. The IQ heats from almost all sides with the "Pearl" being the only part that isn’t heating the herbs, so the top of the load might be lighter than the rest.
Anything else?
Spend time figuring out how you like to use the Flavor Chamber. It can be used to add herbs to further flavor your session, or as a collector for residues that settle on your herbs for a stronger session later.
Give this a run, I'm excited about it!
The IQ has a Boost Mode so you can hold in the power button and the temp will rise for as long as you hold it in. Once you let go, it goes into sleep mode and cools down. If you push any button it will go back to the power setting before you activated Boost mode.

What is an IQ2 vape?
The IQ2 is a sophisticated, yet fairly simple vape to use out of the box. Utilize some of our tips and tricks to dial in your perfect session.
Is IQ2 good for THC?
It works fine for THC, but the CBD entry is limited to 9.9%, which is too low for many CBD flower strains.. The IQ2 will display the amounts consumed for each hit, but when the new app drops in March, you’ll be able to set alerts to tell you when you’ve hit your preset dosage for the session. .
Does the IQ2 come out lighter?
The IQ2 heats from all sides but the top, with the "Pearl" in the way, so the top of the load will come out lighter than the rest. There’s not much to be gained from a stir at the end, but if you feel the need to, you can use the Flavor Chamber removal tool under the mouthpiece.
Why is the flavor chamber on the Da Vinci IQ so harsh?
The wider tank gives your vapor a chance to cool down before you draw. "Harsh Vapor" is usually harsh because the vapor doesn't have enough time to cool down. The Flavor Chamber is a big reason the IQ has better quality vapor than some other mini vapes.
What are the buttons on a vaporizer?
On the side panel you see the three internal buttons. Some vaporizer internal buttons are plastic and some are metal like these. They almost always look the same, however, from our experience the metal buttons last can last a lot longer than the plastic. The third panel is the micro USB port.
What battery does the IQ have?
Let's get those replaceable parts out of the way. The IQ has a Panasonic 3500, 3.7 v 18650 battery. There are a lot of 18650's to choose from and Da Vinci picked one of the best. On the higher settings you get about 40 minutes per charge.
Is the Vape Chamber reliable?
It's reliable and efficient. There is more insulation around the outside of the chamber than we were expecting. Like all ceramic chambers, there is a silicone cushion above and below the chamber. This adds a nice air tight seal and shock protection if you ever drop your vape.
Did Da Vinci isolate the airpath?
Da Vinci did a great job isolating the airpath. All the circuitry is on the outside of the chassis and the battery is isolated in its own port. Kind of interesting, the hinge pins for the battery door are part of the circuit boards. Haven't seen that before.
