vaporizer question

[tokinggreg]

I was in Eckerd Pharmacy before and noticed there was an aisle that had some vaporizers. I know (obviously) these are not intended for weed, but I was wondering if they can be altered for this purpose. I was wondering if anyone has been crafty and figured out if this will work?? The big plus about this idea is that it would indeed be a good deal price-wise.. it was like $30, and it should work better than a lightbulb vaporizer.

Feedback is much appreciated, and if most of it seems negative, I will not buy it.

Thanks,

GC

dude my pal tried that once, but both of us were way to baked to figure it out, and cos it was give to us, we decided that a baseball bat smashing it would be more fun.

I have never heard of this. But, I say go for it!

Yea, see! Even if it doesn't work, you can still have fun smashing it!

That sounds like a good back up plan lol.. smashing shit is always fun, especially when it's free.

are you sure its a vapourizer? and not a humidifier or somthing? cause if so then its just a matter of turning up the heat, provided the bowl or substance chamber is adequete for the vapourization of weed

they had humidifiers too, but there were a few vaporizers. it was pretty weird, just walking through the pharmacy to buy deodorant and i see in big letters on one of the aisle signs "vaporizers," so i was like.. hmmm, i've got to check this out. i'm not sure if it has different settings for the amount of heat though, cause it's only intended to vaporize vicks something or other... so it might just have one setting (which hopefully is ideal for weed too).

oh no, u dont want a vicks vaporizer doooooooood, just take that 30$ plus tax and stick it in a pigy bank somewhere, and then next time u want to buy a vaporizer, take that money and put it with the 30, and then when u get 400$ roughly, then go buy the AroMed vaporizer and u wont have to worry about one of these millions of headaches... this is advise i wish i had before i lost 300$ on crap vaporizers./.. vape on!

Trust me, it won't work for weed. Basically, all those things really do is boil water/medicine to create steam(aka vapor). Completely different concept.

a vap works by heating up the weed just before it ignites/combusts. so i've tried vaporising with a crack pipe. i put a crutch on the stem end so that you don't suck in weed. to smoke it, you keep rotating the ball part around to get the weed all nice & toasty.. btw the weed turns brown. it did catch on fire when i heated it up too much. so it was really touchy. but pretty cool cuz it worked & i only spent probably $7 total for the pipe. they have them at smoke shops but not on display.

if you don't wanna try the pipe, i saw a wooden vaporizer pipe that was around $50. i'm sure you can find something online. if all else fails, i'd go with they guy who said save your $ to get a really nice vap.
