[xGus21x]

i just made a vaporizer and i can't get the stuff broke down to powder, is that ok? and also, how can you really tell that it is cooked through?

xGus21x Reviewed by xGus21x on 09-29-2007. Lightulb Vaporizer: How to... This is a tutorial on how to construct and use a lightbulb vaporizer. It's a simple and easy to make contraption that will save you time and money and keeps the smell to a minimum, perfect for college dorms (my purpose). Materials: 1. Lightbulb, any type, shape, size or brand, just make sure the lining (if it has a white lining) is powder, not the type that is painted on. Halogen bulbs also may pose a health risk. 2. 20 oz. plastic water bottle. 3. Straight pen body tube. 4. Pocket Rating: 5

im not sure wat u said xgus21x but im guessin you cant get the white powder off the bulb...just use salt and shake it in there but if that doesnt work then you prolly cant get it off. and you will tell that its vaporizing wen you see light smoke trailing out of the weed

You dont necessarily need to make the buds powder, if thats what you're talking about, but make sure they are grinded thoroughly. You also don't really need to burn the weed, just heat up the air around it to vaporize the THC and cannabinoids, the browner the buds get upon vaporization, the more THC you have extracted, but get it too burnt and you may inhale smoke that doesn't even have THC in it. So bake the buds till the're brown, but not burnt.

Just a reminder to everyone using a vaporizer: Do not cook the buds until they smoke, you do not want to inhale smoke that was heated inside the bulb, the point is to vaporize the THC, not burn the weed. Wait until the vapors swirl around the bulb and then inhale, do not wait until the buds start to smoke.

OK so i just started the process of making one of these things but I didnt have any salt so I used formula 420 (which I think has salts in it?). Just wanted to see if anyone has heard of any health risks with using these lightbulbs. It seems like there are probably a bunch of chemicals and stuff inside here, but who knows.

just made one and took a hit and its pretty good but the only thing is there is condensation forming inside and the bud is sticking to the sides

nvm just held the lighter over the water and it went away.... just took about 3 more vapor hits and ill say im pretty fucked up. My head is moving a mile a second it feels like

Sounds like most of you are having good results. Just remember not to get any water in the bulb and shit like that. Keep it safe and make sure you don't heat the bulb too hard everytime you vape because the bulb may crack if it is used in an excessive manner. No worries, easy to make another if it does indeed crack! :thumbsup:

I got two questions:

1. Anyone know a good way to get the built-up THC residue outta the bulb so its still smokable/eatable/useable?

2. Whenever I use salt to get the white off the sides of the bulb, it never comes out perfect, there is still a slight white residue or salt residue left in he bulb. Could I be doing something wrong?
