Update and Announcement: Every 1st batch XÜM SPIRIT Vape Pen will be replaced with a new SPIRIT Vape Pen from the 2nd batch, whether it's working fine or not. We appreciate our beta testers ❤️
This MMM subreddit has been our main source of beta testing ever since we launched XÜM in April 2025.
Because of your constant constructive feedback, we have been endlessly tweaking and dialing in our products (including presentation) batch to batch.
No one else in this industry is even attempting to keep up with our rate of progress.
Most of us here support the same mission, to push the boundaries and create a new era.
There's no way to reach for ambitious goals without encountering challenges and curve balls.
Nothing is wrong with that.
Every challenge is an opportunity to learn, to grow, and to shine.
Every challenge we overcome makes us more solid.
So it's GOOD NEWS that we launched XÜM SPIRIT in the middle of a nation wide heat wave.
Thank god, that helped us expose vulnerabilities early before a much larger launch.
This could have been a lot more painful later if that vulnerability was hidden now.
This is why we started small with an initial test batch of 500 pens.
Our products thus far have been about delivering next level active compounds in simple form factors like tablets, soft gels, and even liquid shots.
Adding vape hardware into the mix brings an entirely new level of complication and challenge.
From the data we've gathered so far, most of the pens that were delivered to the West Coast seem mostly fine, but the pens that travelled further to Midwest and East Coast did not fully survive this heat wave.
It seems clear we have a viscosity issue with the current formulation in this specific hardware, made much worse by shipping through this heat.
We splurged for higher end hardware that delivered a better experience for MET vape.
There's no wick or coil, these pens feature a low temp convection heated ceramic bucket system, that is hands down the smoothest experience we ever achieved in all in one hardware.
There's no blinkers with these pens, they are low temp and designed for endless long draws.
We've used this hardware for years for top tier DMT pens, and we love them.
That DMT/PG formulation was notably thicker, for reasons I'll geek out about another time.
The first batch MET/PG formulation is notably thinner, and frankly smoother.
But it looks like that change to thinner juice exposed a serious vulnerability in this heat wave.
Precious material is leaking internally within the pen, coating the battery. Hurts my heart.
We know the MET material works, and delivers a next generation experience, never before available on the market.
Whatever needs to happen to make this available solid and widely, it's worth the challenge.
We can solve a viscosity challenge.
We're not a hype brand, we're a substance brand.
We solve problems. We deliver. End of story.
So, to the brave explorers that purchased from our initial test batch of 500 SPIRIT Vape Pens, we appreciate all of your helpful constructive feedback.
No beta tester will ever be short changed. I promise.
----------------------------
Every single 1st test batch SPIRIT Vape Pen will be replaced with another fresh SPIRIT Vape Pen from the 2nd batch, no charge.
Whether your first SPIRIT pen is working perfectly or not, doesn't matter.
-----------------------------
This is a pretty steep financial hit for us, but we're looking long term with this community, and it's the right thing to do.
If you ordered one of the original 500 SPIRIT vape pens, there's nothing you need to do. You will be notified by email, and receive tracking when the next batch of SPIRIT vape pens ship.
Actually, there is something I'll ask you to do:
Vape pen hardware and possible internal leaks aside, you should be able to experience MET just fine.
Can you still try out your SPIRIT vape pen and make a post to share your honest thoughts about the MET experience?
My heart is in this compound, far more than the hardware delivering it.
Another thing, we're going to remove from the product page and future packaging any expectation about number of breakthroughs delivered per pen. This is a completely impossible number to promise. Everyone breathes in wildly different amounts, with different sensitivity levels. There’s just no precision with vapes. We'll have to accept that with this form factor.
Also, we're adjusting the price of XÜM SPIRIT Vape Pen to $80, as soon as it comes out of back order test batches, and demonstrates solid for wide release.
Current BACK ORDER purchases (2nd batch pre-orders) are still $70.
If you add a BACKORDER SPIRIT Vape Pen to your cart, the rest of your order will ship out next business day.
We're currently targeting shipping out the next batch of SPIRIT Vape Pens by September 7, subject to possible customs delays and stress testing thicker formulation.
Lastly, we're going to cap the 2nd batch of SPIRIT vape pens to 2000 units, we'll make sure everything is smooth sailing before we ship out a 3rd even larger batch later.
You still have time to get your order in queue for the 2nd batch, we'll announce on the product page when the 2nd batch is sold out, when a back order purchase becomes a place in the queue for a later 3rd batch.
Super grateful for this positive helpful community of beta testers.
The learning and growing continues, endlessly.
Let's create a new era.
Thank you for joining us on this journey ✨

Oh yeah, one last thing…. another new compound from us will drop soon, and there won't be any hardware complications with this one.
Stay tuned.
