Bag VS Whip, Volcano VS ????

[lwien123]

Fanboys crack me up, no matter what camp they fall in.

The FACT is, is that the 'Cano, the SSV and the Vaporfection are all great vapes and if any comparisons are to be made, they should be made on which vapes excel in a particular area rather than which vape is better than another.

But fanboys are just incapable of doing this, and that's why they're called...............fanboys.

no, i agree with you. when you consider a good share of vapes barely work, these three will all do the job. i never mentioned smashing a silver surfer, why would i...and btw i hated vaporizers & swore by smoking for years, vaporfection happened to be the one that changed my mind...

Just buy any vaporizer...don't matter which one. Smoking is old school.

Absolutely! Folks, don't over think it. Just get a vaporizer already! Any kind is better than no kind. And if you buy the "wrong" kind, so what? It will pay for itself soon enough, and you will have that much more experience.

To start, you really can't go wrong with the Vapor Genie. It's a great way of moving from smoking to vaporizing because it retains a lot of the elements of smoking. But like I said, ANY vaporizer is better than none, so even if it's one of those dreadful soldering-iron vaporizers, get it.

Once you start vaporizing, you can take your time and pick out a unit that will work well for you.

The thing about bags vs. whips, though, is that bags don't seem able to deliver the rush that whips do. This is mainly an issue of concentration. You get just as high with bags; it's just that you don't feel the "getting high" part. Instead, you suddenly realize, dayum, I'm sooooo high!

Seriously...? Crap...wish I would have read this post first. Could have saved a couple of hours researching the product(s). :thumbsup:

So...we should just go ahead and buy the Chevy without asking other owners as to it's value or running condition? I'm guessing that quite a few of us here can't afford to blindly purchase something we've never tried, on a gamble that it's the right choice. Were all created equal, of quality materials...this would be a valid approach. But since I value my wife's health (and mine too) and would prefer not to be smoking mercury or lead vapors, or plastics and glues...I appreciate someone pointing-out what to look for and why.

I understand the concept of 'make the best purchase for your health and wallet', but am dismayed by the 'just do it' approach. Seems a tad sophmoric to me.

There just too many people out there that have drank the 'Cano Kool-Aid and have been totally blinded by some of the advances that have been made since the Volcano first came to market.

I did drink the Kool-Aid, and it was GOOD. Oh, and btw, I love to hit any herb out of my "tasteless, oderless, quiet" Reynold's turkey bag. I sincerely wonder if some of you have ever hit a volcano that was properly cleaned and maintained. The vap I get in my initial bag with a new bowl fill is incredibly thick, milky even. I'm not knocking a whip if you want to be chained to one spot, just not for me. I've had my volcano for months now, and I haven't had ONE single second of buyer's remorse. I know this part is redundant, but their customer support is superb. Oh, and it take me all of about 2 minutes max to relocate my whole setup to another part of the room.

I'd probably be happy with the volcano but I can't sneak one of them bags into the movie theater with me! I got an Extreme Q for home and an Iolite for on-the-road. 240 for the extreme and 175 for the iolite- at the THC Expose in LA last weekend. Total $415 spent between the two.

Thank you vapeworld.

Thank you vapeworld.

So you got a bag vape, a whip vape AND a portable for less money than one Volcano.

Not saying that the 'Cano is not a great vape, but the above scenario does point to other, very viable options.

The Zephyr Ion was 350 at the THC Expose in LA as I recall. I think they normally go for 450 or so online.

You know, I didn't even price the volcano! Something tells me they wouldn't have gone for less then 450. The people at one of the volcano pusher tables did mention the company was suing or trying to put the Zephyr Ion people out of business for technology infringment or some such.

Eh, capitalism. The zephyr seemed like a good vap too.

Yeah I was pretty stoned when I typed that...hence the Civil War explanation lol. Let me clarify and add that you should do some research before buying any vape. My personal favorites, even though I don't even use MJ anymore as of lately, are the Volcano, Extreme, Purple Days, Silver Surfer, and Iolite.:hippy:

Expanding your horizons a bit, I see.

But I'm curious. Why no more MJ?
