Your least expensive alternative, and one of the best, is the Launch Box from below. They're developing a plug in a/c adapter for home.

"I am down to 2 choices. The major differences are price and size. The magic flight launch box (link) may be the one I go for. It is small and portable and under $100. My other choice is Da Buddha"
I find the angle of The Silver Surfer enough of an improvement to rate it above Da Buddha, which is otherwise very similar and a good vaporizer. The angle makes loading and vaping easier.
The deciding factors between the two - money; where you're gong to use it (if you want portable - LB); ease of use (I found the Launch Box much much easier to get to work); taste - Silver Surfer kills on this one, a touch of tang to the LB; effective delivery (gets you high) - both good - my 3 buddies took one hit each from my LB with JillyBean, it baked them for 2 hours. Silver Surfer/Bhudda will do the same. Both great choices.
.
these would be my pics in each category. The pick will also depend on the type of hit you want, take a look and to see if there are any you want to talk about.

The
Volcano is fantastic, probably the thing that people notice least is how resilient the machine is, how easy it is to clean. If you've got the money this is a great machine. My favorite among the bag/reservoir type.
.
If you want an inexpensive bag type I'd go with the
HerbalAire, it's reviewed better than the Extreme.

The other types I have/like are:
Silver Surfer - whip, direct draw. Simple, people love it. I gave mine to a friend, I never used it because of the Volcano. My friend loves it, says he's higher than ever before and uses half the bud of smoking.

Launch Box - Magic Flight: IMO the best portable on the market. I have an I-inhale (Iolite) that is useless. At ~$90 USD plus a 15 minute battery charger this is 1/3 the price of other portables and could be used as a full time home vaporizer. If you're short on cash this is where I'd start. I can get higher using the LB than with my Volcano, thicker hits. Takes a little more time and a bit of practice but thicker hits. Has a trench instead of a bowl, permanent screen. Conduction between the screen and the powdered bud allows for 3-5 second warm ups and good tasting hits. Uses one AA battery, lasts me for a trench over an hour and a half walk. The warranty: lifetime replacement if the LB is broken for any reason, including operator misuse. The warranty makes sense when you figure out how the box works.

Purple Days is a direct draw vaporizer that gives 2-3 good draws per bowl and 40 bowls per gram. I did a test and got only 23 bowls from a gram but anywhere from 6-20 hits per bowl. Amazing flavorful hits. It stays on all day long, or use a timer - takes 1/2 hour to warm up, and uses about the same electricity as a night light. You can get a battery pack and use it as a portable. Only $180. The catch, theres a 9+ week waiting period. Mine took 14 weeks from order to arrival. If you live in the US you can get the
Myrtlezap, the vaporizer that the Purple Days was designed from. Very similar but Purple Days has a cooler name and claims improvements over the Myrtlezap. The Myrtlezap has brass in the air flow

Another type is the flame heat source on the heating block, Supreme is the best portable in this class. I bought a cheap plastic housed VP600 that bubbled the first try so I scavenged the ceramic heating tube and made my own Plug n Play vaprorizer with a jet torch, the ceramic tube, a metal light switch box for housing, and the bowl set from the VP. Worked better than the vapoir gene. The Supreme will give you Volcano size hits in the same time, but the unit takes time to warm up.
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!! They cut the guys hand off! Holy shit they're crazy! OH NO! What if they're involved with the Peat Moss Industry!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Everyone buy a Supreme just in case!

I've made a Volcano from an old metal Vapor Gene, a heat gun, silicone tubing and a Volcano Bag. Like the Vriptec. Which was also the name of an onion belt back in the day, or as we called it the "What is that fucking stupid thing you have on?"

so i figured might as well buy one so I can smoke inside and relax. I've never tried the bag vapes though. But they do look a lot better than whips, however the whips are just easy.. so idk. hopefully my box vape wont disappoint when I get it. Here it is by the way.
