Getting Started
Initial Charge
Before first use, fully charge your Boost Evo:
- Connect the USB-C cable to the base unit
- Connect to a USB power source
- LED indicators show charging status
- Full charge takes 1-2 hours depending on adapter
- Device is ready when LEDs indicate full charge
Note: You can use the Boost Evo while charging (pass-through charging).
Assembling the Device
-
Prepare the Quick Connect:
- The Quick Connect adapter should be attached to the glass bubbler
- If detached, press the adapter firmly into the bottom of the glass
-
Add water to the glass:
- Remove the glass from packaging
- Fill with room temperature water
- Water level should be just above the intake holes
- Do not overfill—this causes splashback
-
Install the atomizer:
- Thread the quartz atomizer onto the base unit
- Hand-tight only—do not overtighten
- Ensure the atomizer sits flat and secure
-
Attach the glass:
- Align the Quick Connect adapter over the base
- Press down firmly until the magnet clicks
- The glass should sit securely without wobbling
Powering On/Off
- Turn On: Click the power button 5 times rapidly within 2 seconds
- Turn Off: Click the power button 5 times rapidly within 2 seconds
LED lighting will indicate power status and current temperature setting.
Quick Connect System
The Quick Connect is a magnetic attachment that provides several benefits:
How It Works
- The Quick Connect adapter attaches to the bottom of the glass bubbler
- Magnets in the adapter align with magnets in the base
- Simply press down to connect; twist and lift to remove
- The integrated carb button provides airflow control
Using the Carb Button
The carb button is located on the Quick Connect adapter:
- Press: Restricts airflow for denser, more flavorful vapor
- Release: Opens airflow for larger, cooler hits
- Pulse: Many users alternate pressing and releasing during draws
Glass Swapping
The Quick Connect makes it easy to:
- Remove glass for cleaning
- Swap between different glass attachments
- Quickly disassemble for transport
Temperature Settings
Settings Overview
The Boost Evo offers six calibrated temperature settings:
| Setting | Temperature | LED Color | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 500°F | Blue | Flavor-focused, light vapor |
| 2 | 550°F | Cyan | Balanced low-temp |
| 3 | 600°F | Green | All-around use |
| 4 | 650°F | Yellow | Standard dabbing |
| 5 | 700°F | Orange | Thick concentrates |
| 6 | 750°F | Red | Maximum vapor |
Changing Temperature
- With the device powered on, click the button 3 times rapidly
- LED color changes to indicate new temperature
- Continue clicking to cycle through all 6 settings
- Device remembers your last setting
Temperature Recommendations
- Live resin, rosin: Settings 1-2 (500-550°F)
- Shatter, wax: Settings 3-4 (600-650°F)
- Thick concentrates: Settings 5-6 (700-750°F)
- New users: Start at setting 2-3 and adjust
Usage Instructions
Loading Concentrate
- Power on the device (5 clicks)
- Remove the glass attachment via Quick Connect
- Use the included loading tool to place concentrate on the atomizer
- Start with a rice-grain sized amount
- Place concentrate in the center of the atomizer surface
- Reattach the glass
Tips:
- Do not overload—excess can overflow and clog airflow
- Room temperature concentrates are easier to handle
- Clean the atomizer before loading if residue is present
Taking a Dab
- Ensure glass is attached and water level is correct
- Load concentrate onto the atomizer
- Select your temperature (3 clicks to cycle)
- Double-click the button to start heating
- Wait 9-12 seconds for the device to reach temperature
- Inhale through the mouthpiece while using the carb button
- Continue inhaling until vapor diminishes
- Release the button when finished
Session Tips
- The carb button controls your hit density—experiment to find your preference
- Slower, longer draws often produce smoother vapor
- You can hold the button during a session for continuous heating
- Clean the atomizer while warm for easier maintenance
Water Filtration
Proper Water Level
- Remove the glass from the base
- Fill with clean, room temperature water
- Level should be just above the intake holes (small holes near the bottom)
- Do not overfill—excess water will splash into your mouth
Water Level Guide
| Level | Result |
|---|---|
| Too low | Insufficient filtration, harsh hits |
| Correct | Smooth, cooled vapor |
| Too high | Water splashes into mouthpiece |
Water Tips
- Change water daily for best flavor
- Room temperature water works best
- Empty water before transporting
- Cold water provides extra cooling but may cause condensation
