Power 5x? 7x?

go 7 if u can, no point aiming low, right? or vector, never heard of lucienne, but anything better quality will help end product, right?
ya that could certainly be true, the problem is it seems there is a good chance power 5 and power 7 are the same exact thing, they just make more profit off the 7...my last 2 batches of oil since i got my case of power 5 have been my best runs yet so i am not really keen to spend 20 extra bucks a case for power 7 that might be exactly the same as what i have

Item Description
Colibri Premium Butane is the cleanest butane available. Our butane is produced to the exacting standards required by high performance jet-flame lighters—a technology Colibri introduced to the world over 35 years ago.

Our butane is processed in world-class refineries and canned in only the cleanest environment possible, resulting in fuel so pure -less than 6 parts per million!- that it does not require repeated filterings to remove the unwanted matter and contaminants that affect the performance of your lighters, and adulterate the flavor of your premium cigar and/or tobacco.

Our 99.9994% level of purity allows us to proudly recommend our butane for all refillable butane lighters. Colibri Premium Butane is developed to reduce the number of contaminants that cause clogged burner valves, misfires and malfunctions—and to safeguard against costly repairs. Our 300 ml cannister is also fitted with five removable adapter nozzles in the cap, so that you may refill old model and Colibri brand lighters.

Colibri tested 15 ppm at Specialty Analytical labs, with Powers 5X testing at 2 ppm.

Single grab samples, but worth considering.

i made a thread on this(the 5x vs the 7x)... this really applies to all butane available... but in my experience, after using the 7x stuff... 5xvector taste like crap and seems to leave a tane taste no matter how well u purge...
i personally like liquid 7x butane its veeeery clean... but all 7x is gonna beat the shit out of vector.
ddo urself a favor and just try 1 can on ur next run of ur normal butane... iv also noticed a better yield with the 7x... no shit.

PS i am not trying to act like an authority iv just been using 7x for months now and now than iv gone with it goign back to a 5x doesnt taste as good as it once did...
i am not trying to discount anyone elses different experience... but this has ben my experience.

The nonvolatile residue in canned butane (Mystery Oil) is no joke. Nasty stuff, GW had it tested, but the math shows we're still safe even with the dirtiest brands. Here's my Best to Worst canned butane list ranked by weight of nonvolatile residue per can,

If you know of a brand available in the US I haven't tested let me know.

The vendor for Dab Lyfe and Moorpark dropped the ball on selling me a couple of cans of each last week... edit: back on the ball... maybe Mega Plus 7X also.

I like and use Power 5, my oil smells and tastes fucking ridiculously good...

Plus a master case of Power 5 is $220, where the Power 7 is $340...

But as today, I moved up to the big boys, 99.9% N-Butane...
