i've got one that i hardly ever use.
not sure what it is? maybe i'm just
a smoker, but the buzz feels different.

Pros:
-Its not as bad for you because you're not smoking, you're inhaling vapor (Also, much smoother to inhale).
-Its really cool, and not many people have them.
-You can reuse the bud after you've vaporized it by either smoking it or saving it up and making butter with it.


Cons:
-The good ones are really expensive.
-Depending on your smoking habits you might tend to go through more bud because you can't pack a bowl and savor it. (Stale vapor is yucky).
-I've always liked the taste of good bud, but the vaporizer seems to take away some of the finer details in this taste.

pros: clean good for your lungs vapor

cons: doesn't get you as high due to lack of CBD.

gotta wait for the vape to heat up.

PROS:

-first few hits taste delicious
-gets you really ripped, imo - but definitely a different high
-its noticeably "healthier" feeling
-the vapor is considerably less smelly than smoke (good for apartments)
-good way to administer THC as medicine
-some have cool l.e.d. lighting to amaze your friends


CONS:

-doesnt provide the same cough sensation as smoking a fattie/bowl
-last few hits taste like burnt popcorn or something similar
-expensive as hell, i inherited one
-you forget to use it if your used to smoking
-hard to determine temps with different wetness/dryness of herb
-have to hit it lightly rather than "ripping" it

sorry but in the world of vapes, whip vapes are probably only 50% of the experience . . . bag vapes are the shit.

and I get just as high as I do smoking, if not higher. I think some people just have a sort of mental-block towards entirely switching to vaping . . . when I did it works just as well, if not better. I use a herbalaire btw. one of the worthy bag vapes out there, other than the volcano.

if you like to smoke a vaporiser is WACK if you just like to be high a vaporizer or eddibles might be for you. vaporisers are cool and work but if you like the act of rolling and smoking you might not be satisfied with vape

You cant reuse bud after vaporising it...Its junk it contains no more thc and it tastes like crap and its as brown as tobacco

Pros....it is a healthier alternative to smoking bud
cons....ruins your tolerence for joints and bowls, the buzz isnt the same and everything taste the same, plus they are a freaking rip off, i mean come on get real the volcano cost $500 what a waste. Hash is way better than vapors anyways

the volcano is overpriced for sure.....


but the herbalaire is priced at 250 with 3 year warranty . . . . . I'd say that's fair.

but for real they should all in general be like 75-200 bucks.


plus: not all vapor tastes the same, if you had 2 dramatically different high quality bud you'd notice the taste for sure, I always do.

but who cares about the taste? the effects are dramatically different from bud to bud, and if you have a good vape why would you care if your tolerance to joints or pipes is shitty? you shouldn't be smoking in the first place.

in my opinion, you either vape 100% of the time or you smoke. there isn't really a good medium between both imo.
 
:lol:Jeff,
bought the v-tower extreme cause I can't handle the smoke from a pipe. It is extremely pleasurable and it tastes so different, the high can be immediately or a creeper depending on the strain. I love Blue Dream a cross between blueberry and haze and have purchased it for over a month now. I am looking for seed of this wonderful medicine or clones and will certaintley grow this for my self. Have not been burned out on this yet

Same here. I get pretty stoned from my vape.. and it is a different high than the high you get from smoking.. but a vape can definitely get you pretty fucked up if you're using it correctly.

You must be really high because in post #4 you said:
that was 6-7+ months ago buddy ;).

I do shift my own opinions when I discover later on I was wrong, and I wasn't anticipating that a 1 year old thread with one of my old opinions would be brought up ;).


edit: and besides, back then I only had a shitty ebay whip-vape.

This is exactly the truth i got a whip vape and sold it for half the price like 6 months later, kuz i never used it. I now know before i buy any bong perculator or anything I am definitly investing in a non digital valcano.:weed:
