In this video I cover the pros & cons of the Provap EZ 110 sold by Oxavap. I like this vaporizer, but I don't think it's for everyone. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

Thanks for taking the time to share you thoughts!! God Bless!! 💞💕
Thanks Meloney!
Nathan! Great review and educational video!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Howdy Nathan, good to see you. Thanks for posting. Wishing you the best this Christmas time.
Thanks! Merry Christmas to you as well
Appreciate the honest and informative feedback on this unit!
Thanks!
Good review.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Jeff!
Nathan, Another great video! If anybody doubts you are from TN they just need to listen to you say tuuube at 2:42 and all doubts will be disappear. Regarding not being an "early adopter" we had a saying at work..."its ok to be on the leading edge, but not the bleeding edge". I plan to get me a InstaVap soon with Dewalt Batteries but I only have 12 hives...getting tired of dragging out the chord and filling the cups repeatedly for summer treatments. Thanks again for a great well thought out video.
Thanks Dwight, Merry Christmas to you!
Thorough review Nathan . All performance aside the cost of the unit and generator Makes Rob's battery unit look very affordable.
And thank you for showing putting the facemask filter! I can not believe the number of OA videos I've seen lately from some Hive Life participants not using eye protection or even goggles! "Well we are upwind" comments is putting new beekeepers at risk. The number of times we have had caps blow off... Anyways, merry Christmas and a happy New Years to you and yours.
For unto us a Child is born
Thanks Mike. I agree, a full face respirator should be the standard. They aren’t that much more expensive…definitely cheaper than a set of eyes.
Your comments are right on point with my experience using the Pro Vap EZ 110. If you are looking for a case to carry it in your truck, you might try looking in a military surplus store and try a motar storage tube or similar munitions tube. You might try Sgt. Troy's Military Store in Lawrenceburg the next time you make a trip to Albert Zook's place. He gave me a really nice deal on some ammo cans several years ago.
I had thought of ammo cans but not a mortar storage tube. Thanks!
Nathan, good pointers and review. Your gun case idea could work if you make one end heat resistant with fiberglass or silicon?? Have a wonderful Christmas with your family and hope to see you at Hive LIfe.
Thanks Russell, I’ll be at Hive Life, and family will be there but they’ll be at the water park 😃
Thanks for the review. I always wondered why people OA from the bottom instead of doing it from the top. Your thoughts
I don’t think it matters that much, but brood nest is usually closer to the entrance. I know some do drill holes higher up to insert OA. I see vapor coming out the top when vaporizing from the bottom so I think there’s good coverage regardless.
Let's start by stating, I'm an outlaw. Ok, that's out of the way now. I'm happy, and a bit surprised, that you received good customer service from Larry. Maybe he remembered you and that you are a TH-cam creator. But glad you got the from him (plus, you're really just a very good guy, so there's that). That's a nice unit, and while I'm not a huge oxi-vap fan, his equipment is pretty solid and frankly he was the only reputable U.S. source for quite some time. My pro-vap is still kicking, so I'll be an oxi-vap guy until I can't reasonably repair it anymore. Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas to you all!! Thanks for the card Nathan!!
Mike I can only speak to the experience I had, which was fine. I bet your experience was a little different. Merry Christmas to you!
I have 30 and I went and got the battery vape from robbies I got tired of the generator and cords the price was high but I tell u what the battery pack vape is really sweet i am very glad I got it. have u tryied the extended release oa yet and when u do your 3 day treatments do u do them when u pull your suppers hope u have a Happy New Year
I haven’t tried extended OA yet. I do treat after supers come off.
Thank you for this, I watch all of your stuff and have seen your older videos since hive live on this product. Just trying to get more feedback before making an investment. Keep up the good work. My Johno’s takes me way too much time with the silicon caps and reheat time.
The cordless instavap is intriguing as well
It’s a good unit, and I think it’ll be reliable. The instavap with Dewalt batteries would be super small and convenient, but I don’t know how trouble free it’ll be over a lot of use. Another year or two on the market should answer that.
@@DuckRiverHoney exactly, I do drink the coolaide on lithium ion, and like the robust tube compared to the copper tube on John o’s. I appreciate you making this content, I’m still unsure what direction I will go, but oav is my most inefficient activity, and I am trying to be as efficient as possible as a sideliner looking to expand to pollinating/different out yards.
One question, you are lucky you don’t have bears, but I learned the hard way about mouse guards, do you just let them roll with the reducer? It isn’t often but when it happened once I swore off letting mice destroy a good queen/colony.
I haven’t had mice issues yet, but I expect it eventually. On my newer bottom boards I’m actually stapling the reducer on so it’s there year round.
I enjoy your videos a lot very informative . On a side note I'm curious what kind of inventory program do you use to keep track of things?
I moved to quick books this year, but I’m not really tracking inventory in it yet. I do have some spreadsheets I made with equipment counts and things. Bottles are really my most critical inventory because I can’t sell honey without them…I’m keeping 6 month to a year of bottles on hand. Since Covid they’ve been hard to get at times.
@@DuckRiverHoney currently I have 10 hives just looking for some info to help . don't want reinvent the wheel per say.
Hey Nathan, I was wondering if you could use 4" galvanized dryer vent pipe with a cap on one end? Lowes and Home Depot carry these in 2 foot and 5 foot lengths.
I dunno, hadn’t thought of it. Maybe so.
Flex road will help?
Oh no 4 grams epa coming for ya.. just hit your disclaimer a minute after post.. lol loving the vlog keep it up
👍
Nathan love the background music you play. It that an artist that has recorded music?
Hi Linda, I licensed it through Epidemic sound. The artist on both those is named Martin Klem. Not sure if he’s done any recordings or not, but I love his stuff.
Thanks, I found him he has an album. Woohoo!
Could unit be stored in a 6 inch thin wall plastic pipe with end caps after it has cooled down for transport and storage. OldDansbees Providence NC
Possibly, but I’d rather avoid plastic.
Keeps your face further from the chemical source. I like that as well.
I don’t like being around oxalic vapor at all.
@@DuckRiverHoney I understand. Kind of a necessary evil at this point.
Anything that saves your back is worth it!!!
I actually prefer the speed and workflow more than standing up, though that is nice.
What did the board that you replaced cost?
He sent it free of charge.
Made in Hungary 100%
if you fix the chip board you have 2
just need a mead paddle and a copper can
735$!!!? I buy same thing,it cost my 205e,frend bring my from Hungary,one year ago.
What are you hiding in that 5 high medium back there? DB
Dick, that’s a nuc wintering on top of a big hive using a double screen board. I’ll find out later this week if the smaller nucs survived the cold snap.
@@DuckRiverHoney I have 2 of them in my backyard right now and plan to look at them when the temp hits its peak this afternoon.
I think I’ve lost one real small nuc already. Fingers crossed on the others.
I am shocked that with your skill level, you have not fabricated a metal box or at least a wooden box with a metal liner to protect the wood. Strap on an old rifle sling and you are good to go.
Jim it’s a time issue, or maybe a priority issue. The honey house has taken up a lot of free time for tinkering.
