I did a Google research on vaporizers, and one of the results took me to the Vapor Bros. store, where I bought the new whip, about $28, if I remember right ... also, I'm sticking to my story on smoking the 'fluff' with almost the same results as the original ... I don't claim to know why, how, and if anyone else told me that, I would think theyre full of shit ... I pre-heat the Vapor Bros. glass heat-tube to 325 dgrees F ( I have an extremely accurate infrared thermometer a Raytek Mini-Temp ) ... vaporize a bit of bud, 2-3 good hits, then save it for rolling later ... those joints pretty well floor all my friends, and I can tell VERY little difference ... go figure ... ... :smokin:
