About this vaporizer
The Camouflet Convector XL is the larger sibling of the popular Convector, made by Camouflet — a small Canadian outfit that has carved out a dedicated following with their butane convection vaporizers. The XL version expands the herb chamber for bigger loads and longer sessions while keeping the same clean convection mechanism that made the original popular.
Heating works entirely by convection, powered by a standard butane lighter. You ignite the lighter, draw air through the device, and hot air passes over the herb without direct contact with the heat source. Between pulls, the system cools down, so the herb is not sitting against a hot surface baking away. This on-demand nature is one of the genuine advantages of butane convection — you are in control of when heating happens, not the device.
Heat-up is nearly instant once the lighter is lit. Operating temperature sits around 220°C. The device connects to water pipes, and this is genuinely the intended use case — Camouflet designed the XL with water filtration in mind, and the combination of butane convection vapor and water filtration is a setup that has earned real devotion among enthusiasts. The vapor is smooth, flavorful, and the session has a tactile engagement that battery-powered devices rarely match.
The build quality reflects the maker's craft-oriented approach — solid materials, thoughtful geometry, no unnecessary plastic. This is not a mass-market product, and the price reflects that. For someone who specifically wants butane convection with water pipe compatibility and a larger chamber, the Convector XL is difficult to beat in its category.
The one practical trade-off versus an electric portable is butane dependency. You need a lighter and butane wherever you use it. For most people this is a non-issue, but it is worth knowing going in.

A 14-mm WPA adapter is built in, so the device fits directly onto a water piece. Dosing capsules are supported. Despite the larger chamber, the XL remains compact enough for a trouser pocket. Because it runs on butane, it needs neither mains power nor a battery. Our price comparison shows current prices for the Convector XL.

Larger chamber compared with the standard model
The most important difference from the regular Convector is the chamber volume. The XL holds significantly more material, allowing longer draws and more productive sessions. If you use the Convector on your own, you get several draws from one fill. If you vape in a group, you need to refill less often. The chamber sits in the glass section and is easy to load. Dosing capsules keep everything clean and shorten cleaning between sessions.
Craftsmanship and materials
Each Convector XL is individually made by Camouflet in Canada. The body is made from selected hardwood - different wood species are available depending on the batch. The titanium tip is heated by the butane lighter and transfers the heat to the air flowing through it. The vapor path is made of glass, so the flavor stays clean. No plastic in the air path. The build quality is sturdy enough for daily carrying.
WPA use and everyday practicality
The built-in 14-mm WPA adapter makes additional accessories for water filtration unnecessary. You place the XL directly onto a water piece and inhale through the water - cooler, smoother vapor. It works just as well on the go without water. Since butane is the only energy source, there is no dependence on charge levels or plug sockets. A good single-flame lighter is enough. Heat-up time is just a few seconds.
Butane operation and maintenance
XL chamber for larger loads
Compared with the smaller Sticky-Brick models, the Convector XL has a larger herb chamber. This allows longer sessions or stronger single draws without needing to reload. The chamber is made from wood and glass -- materials that do not affect flavor.
The fill amount can be adjusted flexibly. For solo sessions, a half fill is enough, while for groups you can fill the chamber completely. A coarse grind works better than a fine one because the air can flow through more freely.
Water pipe use
The Convector XL is designed from the outset for use with water pipes. The XL format fits directly into 18mm joints, and adapters are available for 14mm. Water filtration makes the already smooth convection vapor even cooler and more pleasant.
The combination of butane convection and water delivers thick, flavorful clouds. People trying vaping through water for the first time are often surprised by how smooth the draws become. The risk of coughing also drops noticeably -- even at higher temperatures.

Open in full comparison →The titanium tip is heated with a butane lighter. The hot air then flows through the herbs - pure convection with no direct flame contact. A single-flame lighter is ideal.
Mainly the chamber size. The XL holds more material for longer sessions. The materials are identical: titanium, wood and glass. Both use butane as the energy source.
Yes, a 14-mm WPA adapter is built in permanently. You can place the XL directly onto a water piece with a 14-mm joint without needing to buy additional accessories.
Glass. The vapor does not touch metal or plastic on its way to the mouth. The titanium tip only heats the air, which then flows through the glass to the mouthpiece.
Yes, the Convector XL supports dosing capsules. They keep the chamber clean and make refilling on the go easier. Without capsules, you can also fill the chamber directly.
In Canada by Camouflet. The devices are individually handmade. Different wood species are used depending on the batch.
The glass parts can be removed and soaked in isopropanol. You can burn off the titanium tip or soak it as well. With dosing capsules, the chamber stays largely clean anyway.
Yes. Despite the larger chamber, the device remains compact enough for a trouser pocket or a small bag. It is heavier than the standard Convector, but still a portable vaporizer.
