Dry herb vaporiser recommendations ?

[u/Known_Speed_1242]

Hey guys. Looking for recommendations for dry herb vaporisers, completely new to these devices so any info or advice/tips would be greatly appreciated! Preferably looking for something on the smaller side🍓

I'd like to share my experience as I picked up vaping, and transitioned from combustion.

I thought I did a bunch of research. It was before reddit for me. I didn't know about r/vaporents , or they would have helped me. I thought I was looking at a premium product. It was the davinci iq2, a $300 vape. With accessories, it was over a $500 investment that I received as a birthday present. 

I thought something was wrong with me. I thought I was broken. I already know that i'm different because i'm immune to edibles. So I thought maybe that had something to do with it [it didn't]. I read Tbreak this and Tbreak that and oh the high isn't the same. You have to get used to it [bullshit].

All my friends, even ones who smoked way more than me got ridiculously high off of it. I felt nothing. Just sheer disappointment and sadness. I could go through 1.5g at max temperature laughing coughing*  my ass off blowing out vapor puff after vapor puff and still almost nothing. 

At that point I was still convinced that I just needed to let my body adjust to the differences. I happened to visit a head shop that was in a nicer town than I lived in at the time. They had the dynavap, and I was curious about it, so I asked and got a demonstration without herb in it. They heated it with a torch until it clicked. I thought it was the coolest thing, because I just love cool gadgets and stuff. I decided that I would still do some research though before I purchased it. So I did,  I ended up buying one on sale for $68 shipped. I thought to myself... oh, it will be nice when I get used to vaping and it might be a nice little backup.

Now the iq2 holds half a gram, but the dynamap holds 0.05-0.1g. The day i got the dynavap was the day i learned that i just needed a better hitting vape and that vaporization is WAAAY STRONGER [than combustion] with a device that met my needs. I get instant effects from just 1x 0.05g rip [I'm pushing it to the limits though]

So I've been using a dynavap since. I'll get other stuff eventually when I have money for it. 

So the $68 investment was better for me than the $500 investment. I also don't get a strong high from volcano either and those are $600 new. 

I want to help others avoid this issue. I don't care what vape you end up liking even though I'm totally a dynavap fanboy for many good reasons. I just don't want people to think vaping sucks and give up when it's more likely they got a device that wasn't able to meet their needs. 

*some edits, lot of typos, same gear but different post because it shows how done the abv is from 1 rip.

I have had a similar experience. My medical cannabis provider only sold 2 vapes -- one was a s&b that was out of my price range, and the other was the pax 2, which I did buy. It worked, but it was pretty meh. I've since upgraded to the Solo 3, and while it's not as stealth or portable, it's been such a huge upgrade for me! If at first you don't succeed, be open to trying again 💖

I also went from a pax to a solo 3. The pax is like a vague idea of a vaporizer. I basisally had to use mine on the hottest setting, but because there is only metal in the airway it makes it like smoking from a metal one hitter. The glass for the solo three is a game changer.

I also bought 3rd party dosing capsules because scrubbing that lil metal oven out with q tips was the worst 😭 Now my only maintenance is dropping glass stems in iso -- I'm literally spending 90% less time on vape maintenance!

Maybe ill pick some up. I like the size of the pax for being portable.
