I have not used a VaporGenie, does it use Butane?
It's a pipe vape, so you use a lighter. Because of this, it has more of a learning curve than an electric model. You have to learn how long to apply the flame, as well as how long and hard to draw on it.

I think it is vaporzilla (or another type) that has a lifetime warrenty.
It's Vapezilla (and Super Vapezilla), and that company actually provides a lousy warranty. You get lifetime on labor (big deal) but no warranty at all on the parts, and that's where the $ is as far as repairs.
