Getting Started

Initial Charge

Before first use, fully charge your Unicorn 2.0:

1. Locate the Micro-USB charging port on the device base
2. Connect the included Micro-USB cable
3. Connect to a USB power adapter (5V/1A recommended)
4. The LED indicator illuminates during charging
5. Charge for approximately 2-3 hours until fully charged
6. Disconnect when charging is complete

Coil Installation

The Unicorn 2.0 comes with two coil options. Choose based on your preference:

To install a coil:

1. Ensure the device is powered off
2. Remove the magnetic glass percolator from the base
3. If a coil is present, unscrew it counter-clockwise
4. Thread your chosen coil clockwise into the base
5. Hand-tighten until secure - do not overtighten
6. Replace the magnetic glass percolator

Quartz Hive Coil:

• Faster heating (10-15 seconds)
• Three evenly spaced cores for efficient vaporization
• Maximum vapor production
• Best for: thicker concentrates, cloud chasers

Quartz Cup Coil:

• Traditional dish design
• Even heat distribution
• Better flavor preservation
• Best for: terpy concentrates, flavor enthusiasts

Assembly

1. Ensure a coil is installed in the base
2. Position the magnetic glass percolator over the base
3. The magnets will pull the glass into proper alignment
4. Add water through the top opening (fill just above the perc holes)
5. Insert the mouthpiece tip stopper

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
• Auto-Off: Device powers off after 4 minutes of inactivity

The LED ring will illuminate when powered on, indicating the current voltage setting.

Usage Instructions

Basic Operation

1. Power on with 5 rapid clicks
2. Select voltage by double-clicking (cycles through low/medium/high)
3. Load concentrate using the included dab tool - use a rice-grain to pea-sized amount
4. Press and hold the power button to begin heating
5. Wait for haptic feedback - the device vibrates when ready
6. Inhale slowly through the mouthpiece as vapor forms
7. Use the carb hole to control airflow (see technique section)
8. Release the button when finished

Voltage Settings

Double-click the power button to cycle through voltage settings:

Setting	Voltage	LED Color	Temperature	Best For
Low	3.3V	Green	Lower	Maximum flavor, smooth hits
Medium	3.6V	Blue	Medium	Balanced flavor and vapor
High	4.2V	White	Higher	Maximum vapor production

The device remembers your last setting and returns to it when powered on.

Carb Hole Technique

The carb hole on the magnetic ring enables advanced airflow control:

Basic technique:

1. Locate the carb hole on the magnetic ring (side of the device)
2. Begin your draw with the carb hole covered (finger over hole)
3. This creates restricted airflow and builds denser vapor
4. When ready to clear the chamber, release your finger
5. Open airflow quickly clears remaining vapor

Advanced variations:

• Full cover: Maximum vapor density, stronger effects
• Partial cover: Balanced draw resistance
• Pulse: Cover and release rhythmically for varied draws
• Clear finish: Always release at the end to clear the chamber

Preheat and Auto-Heat Modes

Preheat Mode:

• Press and hold the button briefly to initiate preheat
• The device gently warms the concentrate
• Haptic feedback signals when preheat completes
• Useful for melting thicker concentrates before full heating

On-Demand Heating:

• Press and hold the button for continuous heat
• Heat continues while the button is pressed
• Release when you've drawn sufficient vapor
• Device vibrates at the end of the heating cycle

LED Indicator Guide

The RGB LED ring communicates device status:

LED Behavior	Meaning
Solid Green	Low voltage selected (3.3V)
Solid Blue	Medium voltage selected (3.6V)
Solid White	High voltage selected (4.2V)
Breathing/Pulsing	Heating in progress
Flashing	Error or low battery
Off	Device powered off

Charging

Charging Procedure

1. Connect the included Micro-USB cable to the device
2. Connect to a USB power source (5V/1A adapter recommended)
3. The LED indicates charging status
4. Full charge takes approximately 2-3 hours
5. Disconnect when fully charged

Battery Indicator

The LED ring shows approximate battery level:

• Full brightness: High charge
• Dim illumination: Medium charge
• Flashing: Low battery - charge soon

Charging Tips

• Use the included cable or a quality Micro-USB cable
• Avoid fast-charge adapters with higher than 5V/2A output
• Charge in a cool, dry environment
• Don't leave charging unattended overnight
• Fully discharge and recharge occasionally to maintain battery health

Care & Maintenance

Daily Cleaning

After each session:

1. Allow components to cool completely
2. Use the included cleaning brush on the coil while slightly warm
3. Wipe the mouthpiece with a clean cloth
4. Empty and rinse the bubbler with fresh water

Weekly Deep Cleaning

Glass Percolator:

1. Remove from the base
2. Empty all water
3. Fill with isopropyl alcohol (91%+ recommended)
4. Let soak for 30-60 minutes
5. Shake gently to loosen residue
6. Rinse thoroughly with warm water
7. Air dry completely before reassembly

Coils:

1. Remove from the base by unscrewing
2. Soak in isopropyl alcohol for 30 minutes
