I have the Ego 510. The 510 battery fits a ton of different atomizers. It depends on what you're putting in it. I have a Volcano for bud, but not very portable. The pens are great for oil though.
Veg+Bloom works great and is super easy to use. I use it on all my plants. Soil, coco, and Growstones. They will send you free samples & when you need more it's $20/lb.
I bought a 25lb kitty litter bucket of it after trying the samples they sent.
I have a Tamisium TE175. It's a recirc extractor so no losing butane. You can get 2-3 zips in the chamber at a time. They do make bigger models but they do cost more.
The TE175 is about $1800. Chemicaly pure N-Butane can be found at Airgas, lighter fuel like Vector will work but it isn't pure...
Top drip feed DTW. Get a few injectors from Dosmatic or Dosatron. A Little Giant ABS-1 for your waste nutrient and any A/C or dehueys run off. You could run the whole grow with 1 20-40 gallon res.
Get a pair of A.R.S. curved tip scissors. No springs, much smoother action, & they stay clean much longer than any of the shitty spring back pairs do.

A recomendation from a doctor. Just a note that says your condition could be helped by mmj and signed by your doctor, until MADOH get their shit together.
Get a commercial space if you'll have multiple cards to produce for. I'm sure it won't be hard to find a landlord that's cool with it or doesn't care.
Lot's of people seeing the opportunity to get money.
You DO NOT want spring loaded. Get a pair of ARS scissors. I like the curved tip. They stay much sharper and cleaner than the shity spring loaded ones. Your uncramped hands will thank you.
No dispensarries will be open Jan. 1st. If you have a doctor's recemendation you can produce your own medicine or have a caregiver produce for you. I believe the MA DOH will be setting the rules and regulations in April or May
and that's when the dispensaries will start popping up.
Read the bill. There's a hardship clause that says if you live too far away from a dispensary you can produce for yourself. If there aren't any Jan. 1st....
