Tempest 2 Review | Insanely Powerful Portable Ball Device

Today we’re taking a first look at the brand-new Tempest 2 from Mad Heaters — a next-generation portable designed to deliver desktop-style performance in a pocket-sized form.

Built with a zirconia ball-filled thermal core and a premium titanium body, the Tempest 2 combines power, flavour, and flexibility in a way that truly sets it apart. Whether you heat it with a butane torch or an induction heater like The Wand, this device is built to give you full extraction in a single heat-up.

🔹 What’s new with the Tempest 2?
• Adjustable bowl size (0.1–0.2g) with twist-to-lock screen
• Stronger induction sleeve for torch and wand use
• Improved airflow and heat distribution
• Visual temperature gauge + familiar click indicator
• Cooling unit with top-tier smoothness

In my first sessions, I’ve been blown away by the Tempest 2’s airflow and power. Even with a fully packed bowl and carb closed, it rips with almost no restriction. Through water, this thing is a beast — delivering consistent, flavourful results from start to finish.

At around $200 USD, the Tempest 2 is positioned as one of the strongest options in portable ball-style tech. If you’re looking for serious performance in a compact format, this one deserves your attention.
