BHO for E-cig with tank attachment

What's up fella's? I recently quit smoking cigs. I'm using a vaporizer that holds e-juice in a tank. It's the best fucking thing I have ever used. For being a vaporizer it hits like a champ and the battery lasts quite a bit, and I was a heavy smoker. Now to the point. I got the dude that owns the shop to give me a bottle of pg and vg (50/50 mix) because I wanna put my bho in the thing and blast off!!!!! So I took a little of my less desirable bho and mixed some with the pg/vg juice I have. I did this in a little glass candle jar holder. I let it sit most of the day yesterday and when I checked it this morning, it was all still mixed together and hadn't separated. So is that all I have to do? Just mix my bho with my pre-made e-juice and I'm all ready to go? Anybody with experience feel free to chime in. I really wanna make this work, and I will do whatever it takes to make it work.

I use the MicroVaped... no e- juice required. Load with your favorite concentrate and hit it. But to be clear Im not using it to quit cigs .. just to stay high :)

Ditto on preferring a skillet and straight oil. Preferably one that only holds two or three hits, so the taste doesn't become as phenolic toward the end.

Thanks guys, but I don't think I explained good enough. I live where it's not cool to smoke. I wanna see if I can get this set-up to work, so that I can smoke oil all day without having to carry "tools" around or my BHO. Having this set-up would allow me to run around all day smoking oil without the worry of being seen and having to carry stuff around all day.

i'm interested in this as well, I've got a cruise coming up and some spiked e-juice is pretty much the only option i'm considering at this point seeing as 1-i have to fly,2- have to be in texas even if just briefly, 3- have heard some crazy horror story's about police boarding ships while passengers are in ports with dogs and that can get ugly, 4 - going with the family and in-laws so being discreet is of the upmost importance.

I am, however prepared to take a t-break if necessary...in fact I'm already somewhat committed to it.

what contributes to this phenolic taste?

The cannabinoids are phenols, and as their boiling points go up, so do their phenolic taste.

When you heat an element in a pool of oil, the oil mostly doesn't reach any higher than its boiling point, so it fractionates off the lower boiling point terpenes, including THC, which is one of the lower boiling point cannabinoids, and concentrates the remaining heavier cannabinoids.

It also converts some of the THC in the pool to CBN through the use of heat. CBN has a more phenolic taste.

The final puffs contain a concentration of the most phenolic tasting elements and the other contaminants that you didn't take out of the oil.

That is why a single dab that fully vaporizes doesn't lose its flavor. It stays all mixed together in the one toke.

To your original question. Yes, if you mix cannabis oil with VG & PG, it will work fine in a e-pen. It will never produce the punch and taste of a single dab hit, because it can't be as concentrated as a dab from a simple skillet, but it is considerably smoother to most folks lungs and will keep the edge off on long trips.

My last long trip, I just loaded up half a dozen skillet e-pens ahead of time and just went through them as needed, and reloaded when I could.

Vaporized oil has a distinctive smell, but that smell isn't burning marijuana, so I just picked and chose my puff location and timing more carefully. What did you do when you needed a cigarette before?

If the cannabis "oil"(concentrate) is fully dissolved into the pg and vg and is vaping using the wick system built into the tank attachment, wont this eliminate the phenolic factor. In my head it makes sense, but by all means correct me if I'm wrong.

I assume you mean when I needed to get high, what did I do? Well I usually carry weed and bowl and oil with me at all times. Times have changed as well as my life circumstances, and being able to get high at a moments notice, with the same thing I used to replace my cigarette habit would be nice. Ya know it wouldn't draw as much suspicion as say, hitting a packed bowl, lol!! I did a preliminary mix of some wax and pg & vg, but the oil wouldn't mix together with them. I'm pretty sure it's because there is no alcohol in it. I got the pg and vg from a local e-cig vendor who makes his own juice. He says that he doesn't use alcohol in his mixes. So I guess I'm gonna have to order some from a site I found that does contain alcohol so that my concentrate will dissolve.

I actually meant what did you do to smoke a cigarette before you quit.

I don't quite understand what you mean greywolf. I use the e-cigs with the tank for e-juice to quit cigs. The e-juice I use has nicotine in it for now. Slowly I will work on cutting it out of my life comepletly.

He's asking when, where, and how did you used to smoke your cigs? When you were still smoking cigs, you would have to go outside somewhere to smoke. He is suggesting you skip the E-Juice, and get a separate pen for dabbing on the go.

I know you want just one pen for everything, but it may be a good idea to have two.

I recently went through the same thing; quitting smoking and switching to vape pens. I bought two pens, one wax, and one e-juice. You can even use one battery and just switch the cartridges.

I thought it would be so cool to be able to vape oil when/wherever (in Seattle so not such a big deal), but I ended up just being too high all the time :)

If you don't want to load and reload dabs all the time, I suggest filling the wax pen to the brim with RSO. I've been able to stay medicated throughout the whole day at work this way. Plus it doesn't get you too far gone, and the taste just sorta stays the same.

In regard to medicating…I am a big fan of the “V-hit” by Seego…It’s a skillet or coil style attachment, (which I use with a “Vision” adjustable battery, or "ego upgrade”, but work with any 510 thread battery.) They have a little screw on cap over the coil that prevents splashes and keeps the glass casing around the atomizer clean, making it that much more ‘incognito’, while still looking like a tank style ecig from a distance, to those who are unfamiliar. I, personally, prefer their “B" version, rather than the A or C…(Seego also makes one called the “Reload” for flowers.) You can find them on eBay, (search for 'Seego V-hit'), along with extra coils and replacement parts…Just be sure it has “Seego Vhit” laser inscribed on the base, to ensure it’s not a knock off.

If you’d rather stick with liquid…Kanger tanks are my favorite tank style atomizer. I just feel like it’s tougher to get/stay medicated with liquid, I seem to have better luck with the skillet style…but to each their own!

Regarding quitting tobacco…I used a V2 to quit and found it really helpful. I used it for a while, slowly reducing the amount of nicotine, til I was 'nicotine-free’…After a while, I found myself “forgetting” to use it, craving it less and less. I found it really helpful initially for the oral, fidgety aspects of quitting…

Just remember, the feeling of wanting one goes away whether you have one or not…Whatever it takes, whatever helps you quit! And don’t let anyone make you feel bad for using an e-cig to help. Good luck! You can do it!!

What DC said. You probably found a way to smoke a cigarette before quitting and the same techniques work with an e-pen skillet. They don't smell like burning marijuana, so not as likely to attract attention.

Sorry if I missed where anyone actually answered your question. I'm at work and quickly read the replies. I mix my bho with medical grade pg and put it in the microwave for a few seconds it mixes nicely and works well. The key is the medical grade the lesser clumps up a little.
