Hello all,
A little help if possible. I just bought a vaporizer (yes, a cheaper $50 one) and honestly, I don't know how to use it. I mean, I know what it does, I just don't know how to set it up to smoke out of. My camera battery is dead so I don't have pictures, but I can describe it the best I can.
It has a flat base with a round cylinder sticking out if it. Coming out of the cylinder is a tube for the smoking. Inside the cylinder it is about two inches deep. In the center, is a metal plate where the stem is sitting. Here's where I am a bit confused. On top of the stem where the bowl should be, it does have a bowl of some sorts, but inside the metal "bowl" it has a screw at the bottom (assumingly to attach the bowl to the stem) and the sides have grooves on them almost as though you're supposed to screw something (another bowl?) in on top. All this is inside the glass globe that fits over the top.
I'm a little hesitant to just put my herb in that "bowl" especially if thats not what it's supposed to go in. Am I missing something that was supposed to go into it? The shop I picked it up from is watched like a hawk so they won't even give instructions on how to use it much less any sort of manual. I asked them if this was all I needed, they said yes.
Thanks in advance and hopefully someone can help me answer my foolish questions.
