The Volcano worth the hype? Really healthy?

Yeah that's normally what I go with and I really try to spare no expense in my setup but I get what they are getting at. I think me and my girl are going to go half on one because I really do hear overwhelming good things about it. And I'm told you can put the bag down and come back in an hour and hit it again. Something about hitting vape that has had time to cool sounds really good.

Imo when I vape with just a whip, I get a cool sensation first half of the bowl. It's hundreds of degrees cooler than smoking but the vape does get hot big time.

Still a mystery to me but I like it.

I have both the Arizer Solo and the Arizer Extreme Q. They are both Fan-Freakin-Tastic! The Solo gives the purest vapor experience of any handheld hands down, IMO. And the Extreme Q is also a great vaporizer. As was stated before, you can use both bags and a whip. The vapor quality is superb. It's not as smooth as the Volcano (truly is the Cadillac of vaporizers), but I'll be damned if there's $400-$500 difference between the two. Just my 2¢.

I guess I see it as something I will have for a long time kind of thing but those other two sound really good too I will check em out.

If you want the Volcano, by all means, go for it! It's awesome! It really is the "Cadillac". In a better (personal) economy, I'd probably own one myself. But it wouldn't be because the vapor quality is that much better, it'd be because it's just an awesome machine.

Ok so I'm a runner and an athlete but herb is the only way I can calm down after a big workout. I worry about constantly smoking and I am starting to feel it a little when I do my five my run on sat. My question is; are vapes really as healthy as people say they are? I'm told most of the tpm is removed by vaping and much less harmful for your lungs. I like to smoke at least twice a day so I'm wondering if something like the volcano would be a worthwhile investment. Please share your experiences with vaping, is the flavor really that good with it? Is it worth the $400+ for a good one? And last but not least, do they really save pot since it is vaped inside an enclosed chamber?

I found one used on CL. Got it for around $330. I love it!

I had an Atmos Raw pen. Useless for vaping flower even with the screens which are supposed to make it compatible. I then bought a Plenty (little bro to the Volcano). It does a great job and is semi transportable but the vape seems to make me cough a lot. Then I got the Extreme Q. I love the bag system for at home but it's a pain in the arse to take places. Now I have the Pax 2 and it is brilliant! Great vape that doesn't make me cough like the Plenty and super transportable! Can pack it, stick it in my pocket, go for a MTB ride and vape wherever! It's so easy that i normally use it at home now anyway.

u can dial in the volcano to what temp you want from room temp to 400 degrees F. The best temps are usually around 375F-383F, depending on how strong of a vape you want. Personally 379F is the temp I like, 383 would be strong. I have had a few vapes, and there isn't a portable on the market that can do what the real brand name volcano does. just make sure it has the 'STORZ & BICKEL' on it. like i said before though if you are going to vape the volcano is the best IMO.

Yeah just sounds like the all around champ but that price hehe. I think as long as you don't get the digital one its not that expensive. But for another $100 you can pretend its a dolic from dr who :)

None of the pens from what I'm told are true vapes they just have a coil that combusts the herb at the bottom. Too bad but if you think about it, who would buy a big one if the little pens did the same thing.

That is very true. Though, the benefit of the bigger vaporizers is that you get a bigger bag. Depending on the vaporizer I suppose.

Give the Pax 2 a try. Def a true vape that gives a vapour of equal quality to my Plenty or Extreme Q!
