This ELEV8R review is from my original YouTube channel, which was deleted in 2018. I had reviewed this vaporizer as well as over 300 other vapes on YouTube, but YouTube doesn’t like weed vape reviews anymore

The ELEV8R was one of the first all-glass vaporizers to use nippled glass as its heating element. Years later, this vaporizer would be modified with an e-nail coil and filled with balls as one of the community’s first ball vapes.

While the ELEV8R is no longer recommended or relevant in today’s market, it was an influential and vital vape in the timeline of ball vape development. The ELEV8R WPA even became a well-known and cross-compatible bowl for many other injector vapes! 7th Floor likely sold 100x more bowls than ELEVR vapes. The ELEV8R bowl was used as the starting point for many popular ball vape bowls.

Original 7th Floor ELEV8R Review below:

The 7th Floor Elev8r is a torch-heated vape. Its raw convection power rips through dabs and dry herb like no other dry herb vape on the market.

The ELEV8R comes with both handheld and water-pipe capabilities. The quartz tip is heated with a torch, becoming an instant convection heater as the user draws air through it.

What I LOVE about the 7th Floor Elev8r

The ELEV8R is a wonderful dabbing device. I use the ELEV8r primarily with the water pipe adapter and the concentrate pad. Since the Elev8r is purely convection, the dab experience is very different. The vapor is incredibly fluffy and smooth, while the flavor is through the roof.

Convection dabs are still one of the most flavorful ways to dabs, even in 2025. They’re just not very convenient or efficient.

Maintainence
Maintaining the ELEV8r isn’t too bad. The concentrate pad can be torched for 30 seconds, and it will be as good as new. The wand is the most difficult to clean, but it’s all glass. Isopropyl alcohol makes cleaning the ELEV8R wand and WPA very easy.

Reclaim
This sounds weird, but hear me out. The ELEV8R produces the cleanest, purest reclaim I’ve ever seen. The pure convection dab means there’s no oil burning on hot-ass surfaces. The concentrate pad is a sponge – oil and hot air pass through it. Sometimes oil splashes through the pad and onto the walls of the bowl. Wait until its nearly dripping out of the joint and harvest it.
It’s dabbable and surprisingly delicious.

What I don’t like

The glob limit. Big dabs are a no-no with the Elev8r. Anything larger than 2 grains of rice is going to turn into reclaim. The dab will be delicious, but you can literally watch your dab turn into reclaim in the WPA.

Lack of tongs – test tube tongs are the perfect tool for this gadget. The Elev8r doesn’t come with a tool to remove the heater. The special clip they include can sort of be used to remove the clip, but it’s just not reliable enough.

Last Words

I like the ELEV8R a lot. It’s incredibly powerful and relatively straightforward. As a dry herb vape the Elev8r is agile – capable of freight train hits or precious princess puffs. As a dab-rig the Elev8r is fast, easy, and unique. The Elev8r is one of my favorite ways to dab.
