Vape suggestion

[virginiaharms]

Hey everyone,

I'm looking at switching over from smoking (water pipe & Bowls) to vaping. I've narrowed my search down to 4 vapes that are in my price range and that I think would be good

for keeping in my man cave for when I rip movies tv and video games. I don't want to attach this to any piece or have to fill up a bag. The 4 I've narrowed down to are the

Enano, da buddha, the silver surfer, and the plenty. Out of these 4, what do you guys think would be best for the transition to vaping? Which one is the healthiest?

You want a Volcano hybrid if you have the coin and need a desktop. Gold standard IMO.

Da Buddha and Silver Surfer are oldschool whip vapes. Nothing fancy but they'll get the job done. Both very similar and from the same company, the Silver Surfer is the premium and Da Buddha a more budget model.

E-nano would be the best for getting thick and tasty hits from small amounts (small bowl tight draw). Great if that's what you want. The Plenty is similar but opposite, a bigger fill with a loose draw.

The Plenty is probably the most suited for casual video gaming vaping, the process with the others is more involved.

definetly the best. just upgraded from the digital to the hybrid. filling the bag is no big hassle, and it cools the smoke like nothing else. also perfect for passing around. the hose attacment fits in a bong, turn on the fan and gently inhale the smoke pouring out the bong. wastefull but fun. pulling on your bong is for suckers

I'm a big fan of the plenty ..and storz n bickle generally .....they are the première brand in vapes....and i would put the plenty on top of all their models in terms and potency of high ....that thing will blast you off.....and i like the fact its similar to a bong hit rather than a bag like on their volcano....can take a hit..put it down for 20 mins ....get her warmed up again and blast another ..usually get 4 massive hits with a full chamber(which is large),,,...be careful if you buy one....its not to be fooled with

The chamber on the hybrid version of the volcano is about a joint = 1 gram. Heat the material at 420*F for 10-15 seconds, use the whip, and turn on the fan. Carburate if needed, but by the time your lungs are full the nasties that shed between the terps and the oils (as the material gets hotter different compounds are released) are shedding anyways. That gram is done, ready to be dumped in the ABV container and made into butter.

That technique, which I call "terp stripping", seems to help unstick the oils that have fouled the inside of the lungs from smoking joints, and make the lungs breathe easier. At least for me. The nasties make me hack because of a bad smelling chemical. I believe that stuff is chlorophyl, but not sure. It is evaporated off when dumped in the ABV container hot. The oils remain on the dope. The clear whip tube doesn't get all nasty inside from oils, and the terpy solvents make a different kind of high. Not near as potent as a joint.

Could also just use a lower temp if you don't want a fan-assisted monster hit..

But yes the effect will be different. To get closer to smoking effects you need higher temps longer. But then you also start getting the nasties, benzene and so on, and the health implications become more similar to smoking as well.

What I have mainly been doing recently is brewing an infusion ("tea"). Long steep in boiling hot water, drink the brew, eat the weed.. Not the most efficient method, maybe you use twice the amount of weed you'd smoke, but hey it's easier to grow more weed than new lungs. I've gone from mainly smoking, to mainly vaping, to mainly cooking with it, to now just this. I like the simplicity, which, while I appreciate the importance of ritual, makes other methods even seem a little silly.
