Gotta throw my hat into this ring. I wound up going to the hospital with a lung related chest pain a few years back, and payed over $2,000 (Due to my poorness, i didnt have to pay all) in medical bills. (I'm only in my 20's) With that in mind, the 539 for the classic volcano was seemed like a deal. The vapor saves my lungs, and gets me ripped for hours off a small amount of herb. I love the volcano. It sucks changing the bags every few weeks, but not too bad. There is less resin all over my house than back in the smoking days. It also puts out less of a smell, versus smoking. Its not very portable, though i have used it with a power inverter on a long road trip. One difference with the volc versus whip style vapes is the airflow rate is always the same (on the volcano) leading to less variables, allowing you to set the heat right everytime. On a whip style vape, you can inhale at a fast or slow rate. The bags are also easier to pass around a larger or more spread out group of people. Plus, parts are easy to find.
And the best advantage of a volcano: people love packing it! whenever somebody gets some really good shit, they want to see how it vapes so i get smoked up a lot.
Anyway, the silver surfer is a bad ass mother fucker too. looks too fragile for the likes of me. I'd also like to add a whip style to my collection, because the volcano makes noise, so its not ideal for campsites, and places where you wanna keep private. I've tried a few of the generic box style that sucked. anyone know of a good, durable, portable vape?
I Love Vapor!
