Portable Dry Herb Vaporizer Suggestions?

[gwheels]

The Launch Box is decent but has limitations. I have one and there is no problem with it being live anytime the battery is in because you have to put pressure on the battery to connect it and it releases when you remove your finger. It has good flavour but I found the batteries are pretty poor and there is too much of a learning curve.

PAX 3 is good for being discreet and having a decent size bowl (0.3-0.4g). What lets it down a little is the air flow isn't great and it gets too hot on longer sessions.

Grasshopper is my favourite for quick hits. Heats almost instantly and tastes great as it is convection heated. Also fits into glass for bubbler use really easily. A bit fiddly yo clean and if you don't regularly the flavour is really off.

Hands down best device is The Mighty by Storz and Bickel. Expensive but very much worth it. Good airflow, pretty clean its, doesn't get hot to hold on longer sessions and long battery life. Only negative is that it's big for a portable. Everyone always mocks when I pull it out at a party and then they have a few hits and the piss taking stops.

If you own a magic flight box and vape a lot make sure you remove that rubber spacer battery shutoff thing. It will save the weird battery ring you will get on your hand.

And you can buy good quality recharcable batteries and take the skin off the outside (like weird wrapping plastic). Then the battery will work in your flight box like the originals do.

Smoking and vaping are totally different, both in flavor and effect.
I didn't like vaping at first, but now I prefer it to smoking.
Much better flavor.

But getting high with a dry flower vape is more of a process than an event.

When I want to get blasted quick, dabs work.
I can't even remember the last time I dabbed.
It's too much, too fast, and I don't really enjoy the buzz.
Must be getting old...

I got a da budha for Christmas. I had an extreme q from arizer and that worked great all round.

But Da Buudha is just for a glass whip. It doesnt take a lot of weed to pack it. It is a dial and a little weird to get used to but now I can dial it in just right and i like it better than a doob except for its lack of portability.

And it is less of an event to get ripped. But I do know what you mean. Some of the portable chambers are too small for me. I do not need to conserve I grow enough to keep me ahead of consumption even with a bad round.

I know you said budget, but just have to throw in the vrod. Yeah its pricey but I feel I got what I paid for not only in quality, but customer service to my needs as well. The company actually takes pride in what they sell.

The only problem with the dry herb vapes is finding the right temperature for the hit you want, you try one only once and you'll never know the potential. Took me a while to get my G-Pen dialled in, then had the same with the CFX but when you get it sorted you can be knocked flat on your back.

dialing the temp in for me is all about flavor. I'll vaporize until I have the needed results and the ABV will be processed further into life giving medicine. I should get an electronic vaporizer for consistency, but I'm stubborn and stick to the classic flame. When the temp is just right, it's almost as if the herb caramelizes.

That's what I have is a mighty.

My second one I'm not going to use rosin anymore with it. Just flower.

So I'm loving my CF.

You still loving your CF @Hashishh ?

I was thinking about the Plenty because I saw a video where this dude draws a hit through a bong. Then I saw people talking about the Arizer Solo2 and what a great draw it was and how great the battery was and how easy it was to clean. Then I stumble onto your thread. I see the CF selling for $100 or even less. Good deal?

Do you use it every day?

 

[rkymtnman]

I've had my eye on the CFV too. sounds like it's a solid unit. the Craft and the Mighty are a bit more than i wanted to spend.

still liking it @Hashishh ?

Unfortunately my CF died within a couple months of buying it. Sometime around May it kicked the bucket. I decided to just stick with my bongs and joints.

I think I'll shy away from vapes from now on. I've had a couple expensive lessons.


Edit : my battery ended up failing. Keep in mind the battery only has a 90 day warranty. I ended up on my own.

damn, that sux. can you get a replacement for it? or is it cost prohibitive?

maybe the dynavap might be the best option? no battery required, just look like a crack head hitting it though. lol

I've been using my CFX for over a year, and I recharge the battery every day, and sometimes even twice. They say the battery will take only 300 recharges, so I figure it's almost done. Still works great, although the battery does not last as long as when new.

I think I will try the fully convection-heated CFV next.

I bought it at Newegg, and both of those models are on sale this month for $105.

yeah i saw the cfv on ebay for 105 too.

i like how much you can put in the cfv like a half gram i believe.

they just seem so similar to the Storz models but for a third of the price

@rollitup isn't the full convection supposed to give better taste too?

I hope so, that would be nice!

I'll let you know, cause I'm planning an xmas present for myself.

i was thinking the same for myself. lol. for a hundy, seems like you can't go wrong.

 

[madvillian420]

ive had nothing but problems with every portable vape ive ever bought lol. However, my vapor brothers has been going strong for 5-6 years now.

 

[rkymtnman]

@rollitup did you end up getting the Boundless? if so, reviews por favor?

i treated myself to some nice Scotch instead of the vape (for now at least or until the scotch is gone)

 

[Couch_Lock]

For the $100 price point I advise buying the Arizer Solo. Super clean glass stem. heats up fast, and you can jam lil nugs whole in it.
Own: Arizer Solo 2, Storz and Bickel "Mighty", Boundless Tera V3, XMAX "starry"

Taste is the difference here, a boundless cfx will be a harsher hit.....those arizer solo are quality.....

I didn't buy one yet either, I spent too much on xmas presents.
