Are vapors really that good?

This dude explains it best, I have'nt even' vaped that much, because I can never afford to buy a damn good one, and always buying bud instead. BUT go for the best, and it'll save your lungs and you can have it for the rest of your life, ESP a good one like VOLCANO. LOL I like work for volcano it seems like ,but I just fucking love their product, esp. the 2006 model.

I've only used the volcano once, and it was far superior to anything I've used in the past. I only smoke top quality shit, so I would love to taste the flavor more of smoking it, and not tasting all the aromas I can be, plus you can absorb a ton of THC , and its a healthier high than using a bong, but I just took two bong rips, some kush and purple, man Im baked..I dont think I'll ever stop using the bong, but I will cut back, like 2 rips a day, instead of 9.

Its a totally different high, alot weaker in my opinion, well compared to bongs, I dont used pipes that often because I find them to be fucking harsh , and they dont get me NEAR as high as my 2 ft water bong

But I guess if you get a good one, have a nice few sessions in your room, you will probably be baked out of your mother fucking mind...I think Vaporizing helps you get the most THC out of your bud. Hey can you vaporize hash???

I thought that the vapes had a pretty low efficiency rating, there was an article I read. Maybe I'm wrong.

I read that article too but I think that was pretty old and they were using the older BC Vaporizer style conduction vaps. A convection vap, where hot air is pulled through the weed, seems to be very efficient from what I have seen I use a Vapor Brothers vap and it works great. I end up using a lot less weed with it than if I were smoking so I assume it is more efficient than smoking.

The key is to get a good vap. Forget anything under $100. They're all crap.

I have found one place in the usa that sells the AroMed, and that is vaposcience.com, or a search on the internet can reveal others as well, but i dont think they are here in the usa, as far as Vaporizers that use balloons i would caution further consideration simply because the balloons' inner surface absorbs thc never to be replaced.. i tried the balloon experience with a vapir, and it was a disaster for me. wasted lots of vapor swithing from filling one balloon to another... and although the Volcano uses balloons, i havent heard any complaints about it, i personally prefer the AroMed, some may call it a light bulb vaporizer sinse it uses a halogen bulb, but there is no fans, and for me, fans and vaporizers dont mix because if u are inhaling directly from the unit then u have to adjust your inhale speed to match the air flow speed of the fan for the best hit possible, with the AroMed, u can hit it as fast or as slow as u like.. for big fat bowls, i recommend a faster hit than a slower one... and anyone who sais that vaporizing is a weaker hi has never properly vaporized because one can acutally go much farther with a vaporizer in the stone than by smoking... AND THE BURNOUT IS MUCH SMOOTHER! unlike smoke when u feel like crap and just wana sleep or crash...

VOLCANO, you will be extremely satisfied my dealer has one and even with rough handling and daily use its still works amazing, the bag gets kinda sticky from the rez and you have to change it but other than that its matenance free and is the top vape around

I'd never bother buying a vape. It looses the whole smoking part of weed...

It's not fun, not easy to transport, and no sociable.

They're a good idea, and are for some poeple, very good investments, however, i prefer to actually smoke my weed, its nicer, slower and more relaxing.

The way i see it is why bother spending all that on someting when you could spend it on weed?

It doesnt make sense, but its your choise. You'll be throwing away the "fun" element of smoking weed though.

fun? it maybe fun now, but it wont be fun when your lungs are diagnosed with cancer, then maybe the vaporizer would have been cheap no matter the cost... what is so exciting about the smoking experience? when i smoke, the toxic chemicals generated make a person feel dirty, and make my lungs feel dirty, and the burnout is far more harsh, just like smokin is more harsh. i only smoked 1 time sense i got my AroMed and that was because the neighbor invited me over to smoke, so i took tiny hits, i couldnt believe how turned off of smoking i have become,.... TRUE it is more difficult to haul around, but everyone likes to look at it and use it, especially the AroMed because of the brite light that varies in intensity... but so far everyone i have vaporized out i made sure there experience with vaporization was a positive one... all my neighbors were stoned off there butt and we didnt even dust the bowl!
Here is why vaporizing gets confusing to smokers and that is because there is no lung sensation, just flavor at the beginning, and true it comes on slower, and that throws off the smoker, so the typical smoker keeps tokin the vaporizer trying to relate to it, and then as the flavor decreases and i increase the temp then the thc concentration picks up and bings the smoker upside the head.... infact the next few days my neighbors were talking about how loaded they were and it suprised them... now that is the proper vaporization experience

also if a smoker should start vaporizing near the 2nd half of the bowl when the temps are above 400F, then the smoker would feel more to the head than at the beginning. but to the seasoned vaporizist, the vaporization experience is far better than the smoking one, just use the right equipment because vaporizing is detailed and technical, and then its like nature at spring time in your mouth, and instant trip hi in the mountains as the flavor itself stimulates pleasurable sensation of exotic nature flavor stimulates the mind in ways smoke will never do, and then the vaporizing enthusiest continues to sip on the natural essense of wild hemp flavor and realizes that his lungs feel like they are breathing nice clean fresh spring air... how is smoking better than that? hack hack hack? wheeze wheeze?

i have never hit a vape but no matter how good it is, i would never replace the act of smoking. there is nothing better then puffin on a fat blunt you just rolled...mmmmm....bluntsssss
