So I'm thinking of picking up a BC Vaporizer. I was looking at the Vapir but $130 is expensive; is it really worth the extra cash? I was wondering if anyone here owns a vaporizer and if so, if there's any particular techniques you've found. I did do a search BTW, not too much info on them :)
well from what i hear from the health nuts it's the only way to get high...what i hear from other people (non-health nuts) it's the cleanest non groggy high weed can offer....but never done one so can't tel lyou either way
I've got 2 vaporizers, the hands free vapordoc and the vaporgenie, I almost always use the vaporgenie.
Interesting... I considered the Vaporgenie. I'd like it to be small and preferably less than 100. But it seems like a pain in the ass. ;) Do you like it? Also, do you use any particular techniques, and do you grind up the bud?Quote:

The technique I found that works the best is to put the flame deep in the hole and breath in a bit fast, if you breath too slow you'll get smoke. And yes I grind my bud up, I bought a nice grinder off ebay for only $20
Thanks, anyone else have any input?
yea if you buy a grinder get a lucite one with metal pins..the cheap 10 dollar wooden or plastics ones break with a months constant use....
the vaporgenie is DEFINITELY worth your money.
I can't decide between the BC Vape and that. The BC Vape is only a little more expensive.Quote:

Cool :) How does it compare to smoking out of a bowl or a J?Quote:

It takes a while to heat up, but it gets me really high.
Yeah, the Vapir looks nice.. the only thing I'm hesitant about is after seeing this study http://www.growkind.com/vaporizer-study.html it seems like #1 Vapes aren't as efficient and #2 there's apparently only marginal difference in the effectiveness of the hot plate one versus the hot air one.
Well first off, the hit feels like you are breathing in warm, bud flavored air instead of smoke. It doesn't feel heavy at all, if you smoke a lot then it may feel like you aren't getting anything, because you may associate the heavy feeling of the smoke with getting high, but the vapor high will creep up and in most cases it is a very much stronger high than smoking. It is felt mostly in the head and has a very clean and clear feeling to it. Good thinking high. :)Quote:

Also, it's small, so it's stealthy.
Seriously, think about it. www.vaporgenie.com
(I do like the vaporbrothers, vapordoc, or aromazap, though.)
