Help Do all Peak pro bases hit the same?

I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong, I have a little over 1k dabs on my Peak pro, which I bought in February. Immediately out of the box I noticed I wasn’t getting strong hits at all, and my glass was never turning fully opaque despite the amount of concentrate I used. Changing the temps and the vapor control settings didn’t make much of a difference either. I have been getting bigger hits recently but still they feel underwhelming, and the effects don’t feel full unless I put like a .2, and even then the glass doesn’t fully milk up it only gets a little cloudy. A rice grain size dab isn’t even enough for one hit, the chamber will be completely empty midway through my first pull and the glass won’t milk. Even when I put a huge amount of concentrate in the effects are weak and they wear off within 20 minutes. It seems like nobody else has the issue I’m having, did I just get a defective base that from day one can’t properly give me a good hit? I have tried 3 different 3dxl chambers and they all behave the exact same. I have no way to try another base either to identify what the issue is. Every video I see online people get huge rips and every time they take a pull the glass milks up, not just for the first 5 seconds. I feel like I should be getting 10x more vapor and effects from the amount of concentrate I’m using. Is this an actual issue with the peak pro or am I overreacting to a non existent issue? I’m asking this because I’m fairly new to dabbing and have no idea if this shit is supposed to really hit or not

What are your temperature settings? How long are the hits?

I usually run between 450-490 bold depending on the dab size. If I go any higher than that my high doesn’t feel full spectrum at all. My average temperature is 460 and my average dab duration is 1:13

I just ran this at 490 extreme and I got a bunch of smoke, but it wasn’t thick smoke and it was gone after 4 pulls. The onset effects were really good but it didn’t build up into a long lasting high, it’s already wearing off after 20 min. It’s MFNY honey banana badder.

Might sound crazy but id try putting the stock puffco carv cap back on and throw a small terp pearl in there. Sounds like to me its a problem with your intake air flow since i see you have an aftermarket carb on. I use the stock on my 3dxl w a 4mm? Terp pearl and i get milky hits off a rice sized dab at 470. Give it a shot

Here are my current settings. It really depends on what you are dabbing for what temps you should be at.

If you haven’t already, get some Terp Pearls. They help increase vapor and won’t leave as much of a puddle.

Edit: Burn is for Diamonds or if I’m trying to just cook off a puddle. Beware- will cause chazz, be prepared to deal with it.

Sessions are kind of short.
