I've just got the nectar gold+ it's my first portable vaporiser so far no complaints ( other than probably user error) and was very happy to see the accessories and replacement parts supplied in the box! Along with a silicone case. But I was just wondering if anyone can help with how much I should fill the burn chamber and also should I compact the bud or just fill it and throw the lid on? my clinic said start at 160 and increase by 10 up to 200 should this increase happen during the 4 minute timer or after also how many sessions can be expected from 1 fill? Sorry if this is the wrong forum for newbies questions it's my first step into vaporiser's
Hi

Welcome to
MedBud!
I can't say I'm familiar with it but at the same time it looks to be a starry 4, I would search for it under this name for any tips and videos. You'll likely get more results when googling.
There's no real rules to using these devices, it's about finding a set up that works for you.
It's a conduction vape, so the oven itself heats up. This usually requires quite a packed bowl to even out the conduction. (Convection vapes are the opposite as they require more airflow).
As for temp stepping, to each their own. I don't do it myself as I find it doesn't really provide the relief I look for.
That said, usually people up the temp after a couple of inhales, so id be closer that than using a full cycle.
That said, if you're happy at say 170c, and 180c is a bit much, then stay at 170c.
Have a read of this article and it'll explain what's terpenes evaporate at what temp and that'll give you an idea of how this temp stepping works.
Have a gander at this as well -
