Introduction
The DaVinci ARTIQ is DaVinci’s move into the 510 cartridge world — a vape for oils, not dry herb. But, being DaVinci, they couldn’t just make another battery stick. The ARTIQ is sleek, premium, and packs a unique trick: a 10 cm recessed airpath that cools vapour by up to 90% before it hits your lips.
I’m Danny Foggs, and I’ve taken the ARTIQ with me on walks, nights out, and those “stealth needed” pub garden trips. Here’s why it’s a brilliant option for oil users who want flavour, discretion, and smoothness.
What’s Included
- DaVinci ARTIQ vaporizer
- USB-C charging cable
- User manual
👉 Minimal kit, but simple to set up — just drop in a 510 cartridge and go.
Build Quality, Design & Colours
The ARTIQ is compact, sturdy, and distinctly DaVinci in style. It’s small enough to vanish in your hand, with a smooth aluminium body and recessed cartridge design for stealth.
🔹Available Colours (UK): Graphite, Emerald, Sapphire, and Amethyst.
Danny’s take: sleek and pocketable, but with a premium finish that makes it feel a cut above your average 510 stick.
Portability and Concealment
At just 3.5" tall and with the cartridge hidden inside, the ARTIQ is one of the most discreet oil vapes available. It looks more like a small power bank than a vape.
Stealth rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — ideal for city use, festivals, or anywhere you need subtlety.
Heating & Performance
- 510 cartridge compatibility – works with most standard oil carts
- Extended 10 cm airpath – cools vapour by up to 90%
- Auto-draw activation – just inhale, no buttons needed
- Multiple voltage settings – tailor flavour vs cloud
The real difference here is the cooling: most 510 batteries run hot, making hits harsh. The ARTIQ solves that, giving smooth, tasty vapour even on longer pulls.
Battery & Charging
- 730 mAh built-in battery
- Lasts ~6–10 sessions depending on voltage and cart size
- USB-C charging (~1 hour full)
Not the biggest battery, but good enough for a full day of moderate use.
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Virtually maintenance-free — just swap cartridges when empty
- Occasionally clean contacts with ISO for best performance
Accessories & Spares
At DopeVapes.co.uk, we stock the DaVinci ARTIQ plus:
- Replacement mouthpieces
- USB-C cables & chargers
- Carry cases for discretion and protection
Since it’s a 510 system, your main “accessory” will be the oil cartridges you pair it with.
Comparisons
- DaVinci IQ3 / IQC / MIQRO-C – These are dry herb vaporizers; the ARTIQ is strictly for oils. If you want herbs, stick with the IQ line.
- PAX Era – Another premium oil system, but locked to proprietary pods. ARTIQ wins with open 510 compatibility.
- Generic 510 sticks – Cheap, but harsh and basic. ARTIQ offers premium build, smoother vapour, and better design.
Conclusion
The DaVinci ARTIQ is one of the best 510 oil vaporizers on the market today. With its recessed design, smooth airflow, and premium build, it’s a big upgrade over standard sticks.
👉 Best for: oil cartridge users who want smooth, discreet, and stylish sessions.
👉 Not for: dry herb users (look at the IQ3, Starry V4, or V3 Pro instead).
At DopeVapes, we recommend the ARTIQ as the best premium choice for oils — stylish, pocket-friendly, and built to make every hit smoother.
