Atmos 'Kiln' Review

Snagged an Atmos 'Kiln' during their Black Friday Sales.

The Kiln is a newer product from Atmos, you can check it out here. The Kiln is a wax heating chamber that doesn't have any coils, just ceramic.

I've used 3 different Atmos wax attachments before this one; the Bullet 2 Go kits cartridge, the Bullet Max cartridge and the RT Plus chamber. So far, this product has them beat.

The biggest problem with the Bullet Max and RT Plus were that the coils would get really gunked up, at least with the RT Plus you can order replacement atomizers. In my book, all that build up in those cartridges is wasted wax... that's not really happening with The Kiln so far. Another massive plus for The Kiln is the airflow.

The only downside I can mention to this point is the ceramic disc at the bottom doesn't seem to heat up evenly. 1 side seems to heat up just a bit faster, so you have to sort of tip the chamber in that direction. And this is a small critique, but I think the air holes could probably be a centimeter or two higher in the chamber.

All in all, quite pleased with this wax chamber. Below I'll post how my experience is with different consistency wax products.
'Crumble' Wax - Vapes it no problem. Left with some small brownish marks at the bottom of the chamber, but it doesn't seem like there's really any leftover residue so far.

'Shatter' Wax - Again, no issues vaping through the shatter. However, unlike the crumble, this leaves a little bit of residue in the chamber, which isn't really a problem... just means you can take 2 rips off of dab.

'Taffy' Wax - Taffy is the best way to describe it... quite gooey, but can still tear it apart with your fingers. So far this consistency wax has left the most build up on the sides/mouthpiece of the Kiln. It's not a lot to the point of 'losing' wax, so not a huge concern. This consistency wax seems to bubble a lot more before vaping than others, and with the air holes being so close to the bottom it might be pulling some of that up on inhale. 

1 Month Update:

After about a month of 'heavy' use, I can say I'm quite pleased. It's had no problem vaping different waxes, and the fact that there's no coils that need replacing is amazing. As mentioned in the original review, there is a part of the disc that seems to heat up a little bit faster/hotter than the rest. It's visible which part that is when looking, as there is a small amount of buildup on the rest of the ceramic disc. While there's a visual difference, it doesn't seem to be having any effect on the vaping. ​

The white part at the bottom = the part of the heating disk that seems to heat up faster/get a little hotter than the rest. The black = buildup, doesn't scrape off, but also doesn't seem to have any negative effect on vaping. 

-----------------------

~3 month update:

Still quite pleased. Buildup is still there, doesn't seem like it will be going away. Visually not the best, but it still hasn't caused any problems actually vaping wax. At this point, the only thing that's really missing is some sort of glass 'bubbler' attachment for this chamber.... but that's asking for a lot =p

~1 year update:
So it's been about a year, and I'd say this thing is finally 'done'. I can still get a vape off it, but the heating disk is so caked up it just doesn't work the same. All in all, no room to complain getting almost a year out of this thing. And These days Atmos sells the bottom part of this tank so you don't have to re-buy the entire thing.

I purchased one of the KilnRA vaporizers last May 24, 2017. I contacted Atmos 6/1/17 because the product wouldn't work. Atmos didn't help me make it work and they refused to replace it. When I went to their authorizer dealer that I bought it from they told me Atmos wouldn't allow them to replace it. Since that time I have contacted by phone, email or chat, Atmos 8 times trying to resolve this issue. The call I made went unanswered and unreturned. I tried chatting with them starting Monday and didn't get a response until Weds.

Since I bought this product 8 1/2 months ago I have been able to use it for ONE THING ONLY. Pure cartridges are the only thing that works. ALL other cartridges don't, the ceramic chamber won't work and the Dry Herb attachment won't work.
The Ceramic chamber is defective and it came apart in my hands. Not apart like its supposed to but apart exposing the chamber. So I reached out to Atmos AGAIN. Now they tell me they want ME to pay $25.00 for them to replace the piece they should have replaced 8 months ago for FREE.
I had 8 utterly disappointing and useless contacts with Atmos. NONE of their reps have been useful and as their customer frankly I don't feel like Atmos gives a damn about me or the quality of their products or service.
So, I will use this piece of crap until it fails completely, which I don't expect will be very long. Then I will buy from another manufacturer.
NOTHING Atmos products do for any price is worth having to deal with Atmos to own one.
