The pax3 is excellent for outdoors and on the go, dual use (both for dry herb and extracts)
Has great battery length and is quite discreet, the mighty is top shelf also but i would not class it as portable.

The mighty is quite big and you will not fit it in your pockets, unless your wearing combats with large side pockets (similar in size to a walkie talkie) battery life is not good. The crafty is much smaller but has awful battery length.

The fire fly is the iphone of vapes, i did not like having to stir the weed about after each session, my woman did like it but she smokes very little and i think she just liked the look of it, takes a bit of getting use to, the flavors are amazing.. I am a seasoned / hardened toker who would polish of 2 0z a week with out a worry at one stage, since making the switch over to the vape i basically have reduced that amount by half. Can now walk/jog that little bit further and feel a lot better for it, also i do not be coughing up my fucking lungs every morning or breathing like Darth Vader, nor do i smell like a ash tray.

Well done on making the switch over, your lungs will thank you for it.....There is a lot of good vapes on the market at the moment.

I also love my pax, very convenient and you can get a copy unit from ebay for just over a $100 that works exactly like the original (possibly has a slightly higher fail rate but because the seller pays around $10 each they are happy to replace within the first year). I ordered 2, one failed after 6 months and was replaced the other and replacement works fine 2 years on.

I know two people who ordered genuine ones around the same time for 4 times the price, again one failed and pax would not replace!

Its interesting from the people who have switched to vaping, around half find it really good better than smoking and have cut down on consumption. The other half went back to smoking saying that it just doesnt get them to where they want to be.

Myself im fine with vaping in the evening when im by myself but still prefer to smoke with friends at the weekend when I want to get really blazed.

also look into e-nano from epic vape. (or other log vapes).

Logs are great for cutting down. Mine helped me give up tobbaco, i went from half oz a week to half oz a month (and i can breathe properly again!).

If you want fakes get on dhgate and cut out the middle man. You wont be paying $10 though...

That said, i wouldnt be buying fake vapes. The supplier of the proper one will be using food safe plastics etc in an attempt to protect themselves from a potential future law suit, who knows what cheapo plastics the people making the fakes are using?

Vapes are not that expensive that i would take the risk personally.

Thank you Seeded, Superx, Bushed and Jaqen H'gar!

Surprised more people aren't recommending the Volcano for it's ability to maximize vapor with minimal product.

[MrBungle]

My best bet is cause its 600 bucks!

Its the clear king of the ring... If you want the best save your duckets and go for The Volcano... The pax is the only other vape I have seen that doesn't scorch the herb similar to the volcano... Granted it has been a few years since I have been into vaping flower.. I like oil now personally

[Old Toker]

Thank you MrBungle! Sadly price often does affect our choices.

I've used the Volcano numerous times over the years, and think it's the most overrated canna device out there. The heating element has plastic parts in close proximity. Trashy as hell inhaling from a plastic bag. And doesn't get me nearly as high as burning a regular bong bowl.

The Sublimator looks much better to me, even though I haven't used it. Seems to be all metal, and many owners say it's the closest thing to smoking that they have ever achieved in a vape. Attaches to a water pipe and is capable of actually filling it with milky hits on the first inhale. Only thing keeping me from pulling the trigger is price.

Oh yeah, the Sublimator also causes distilled solvent-less oil to collect in the clean/empty water pipe over time. Supposedly makes for great dabs.

been running my Volcano classic daily for 10 years. excellent build quality, minimal maintainance. cleaning/changing bag about once a month (iso!), new mesh screen every 1-2 years, one rubber ring (blue) needs replacing after about 3 years.
aside from that it just runs and runs and runs.
when i made the switch from bong to vape i halved the amount of weed i needed while improving the high significantly.

if my volcano broke beyond repair i would immediately buy another one.

i like using my eclipse essential vape, through a water pipe bong.

i got my bong from dh gate, ground glass joint 14mm with a per and splash perc. i use an ashcatcher perc, from a headshop, as a pre perc.

the eclipse comes with two waterpipe adapters, 14mm and 19mm (both in the same case, not separate) it also comes with a regular glass non- water pipe stem, but vapor is hot; running it through water, or ice water, especially with as few or many percolator stages as you want, really helps.

when i was ripping some uncured, dried out, harsher than harsh sativa buds and leaves; the eclipse, through my bong, really made it bearable. i can only imagine vaping fine bud.

all this is very affordable, and effective.

the thing is aluminum and nearly unbreakable. it takes glass vials, which can hold finely ground bud or oil. you can buy vials on ebay too, really affordably, and they come with caps, so they can be filled and sealed.

i use a candle most of the time. if you need to unsrew a heated vial to use a different one, you can use any cotton fabric as a buffer for eat, to unscrew it and replace.

you can vape to any level of completion, and even burn the bud till it just starts combust (then it really smells, like smoking).

i highly recommend it
