Arizer Air vs Camouflet Convector XL

The biggest practical difference is heating approach: Arizer Air runs hybrid while Camouflet Convector XL runs convection (torch or induction heated heater plate matrix). That changes flavor delivery, vapor density, and how the device responds to slow versus fast draws.

Arizer Air is the cheaper option at $110 compared with $139 for the Camouflet Convector XL, about $29 less. Live retailer pricing can shift, so confirm before buying.

Camouflet Convector XL reaches session-ready temperature in 7-15 seconds with a small torch, 4-7 seconds with the Camouflet Inductor, while the Arizer Air takes ~85 seconds. That's roughly 74 seconds quicker on the Camouflet Convector XL, which is useful if you want shorter, on-demand sessions.

Arizer Air uses hybrid heating, while the Camouflet Convector XL uses convection (torch or induction heated heater plate matrix). Heating style influences flavor profile, vapor density, and how forgiving the device is to draw technique.

Arizer Air has the larger chamber at 0.5g, versus 0.2g on the Camouflet Convector XL. A bigger bowl means fewer reloads on long sessions; a smaller one suits microdosing and quicker bowls.

Arizer Air uses removable 18650, so you can carry spares for back-to-back days. The Camouflet Convector XL has a built-in battery you can't swap on the go.

Arizer Air controls heat with 5 preset modes, while the Camouflet Convector XL uses manual. Both let you change temperature, just with different levels of precision.
