It's not ink on the outside, it's the dirt from the lighter.
See, the ideal reaction is
2 C4H6 (butane) + 11 O2 (oxygen) --> 6 H2O (water) + 8 CO2 (Carbon dioxide).
However, the butane isn't pure, and other factors affect how it burns, so along with Carbon Dioxide, you get carbon monoxide and pure graphite carbon. The gases go away, but the carbon and impurities cake on the outside of the bulb. You don't see it in a bowl or joint because it just blends in with the carbon caused by the combustion of the weed.
Also, as long as you get clear light bulbs, not the colored or (god forbid) frosted ones, it's just pure glass. You don't need to worry about "all that shit" because it isn't there in the first place.
lol, ok good to know
damn i wish i didnt throw that bulb away, cause i did see some vapors. it was one of the softwhites but they powder comes out with soap and water. after you see the first vapors how long do you continue lighting?
fuckin eh is right - the type of cap is a regular pop bottle cap 2L or a smaller bottle - the caps are the same size anyways. To make nice holes in it get a medium pair of scissors with a pointy tip and put the cap on the ground hollow side down and just rest the tip on the cap and push thru it when you think its positioned - after the scissors are in the cap start twisting the scissors to round out a hole. Be sure not to push the scissors in too far, or else your hole will be too big. Instead of 2 tubes/straws, I use one, and have just a smaller hole beside that without any tubes in it - works the same. Also, make sure you dont make the two holes too close to the edge of the cap ( make them about a half cm in ) because you still have to screww the cap on the lightbulb - hope it helps
vaporizing is the shit im mad high right now haha
after the first vapours, just stop lighting it and let it fill up, then pull till your lungs are full and re-light
you'll know youve burnt the weed when instead of misty light-grey vapour, you get white smoke rising right off the bud and that defeats the purpose of it...
also, on the topic of lightbulb vapourizers, ive had mine for about a month and I easily bake with .4ish - on the other hand, my coffee table vaporizer I bought for 100$ cant compete if what you want is to get high from as little as possible - my big vape works well with around a g, and that way, it'll get 3-4 people pretty high, but the lightbulb wins for a solo-bake
ok i did it and im pretty baked for the amount of bud i used. the only thing i didnt like is that when i sucked in it tasted like ass and i have a bad taste in my mouth and makes me feel like im killin myself lol.
but when you see the vapors does it fill up that much? all of mine were pretty small hits that would be in my lungs and the bulb cleared as soon as i sucked in.
any ideas on some better glass bottles besides a lightbulb to be safe, cause just that lighter grease on the outside scares me.
A clear lightbulb is totaly safe, its just glass i just made one now im off to go get some buds i'll let ya's no how it goes after i try it
Hey, i might have a better idea but i wont have the bud money till my paycheck on the 5th, and even then i probably wont buy any.
anyway, instead of using light bulbs, which might have chemicals and can break easy, how about one of those small gerber baby food jars. the hold about as muck as the light bulb, and you can heat up the glass and it will stay hotteer longer cause it is thicker.
what do you think, could it work? just poke 2 holes in the lid and put an empty pen or strw in one side.
