a friend of me wants to stop combusting so i borrowed him my volcano, because in my opinion it is a good vape for beginners (no learning curve, easy draw and so on...) i had the vapman with me and after filling some bags and testing the volcano... i showed him the vapman... and let him try the vapman... he has a cold... he cought for a long time... and was blown by the effects of the vapman... and told me first of he wanted to make jokes about the vapman before he was taking a draw but after that he had respect for the vapman and was totaly blown by it... hahahahaha

Holy crap! If this is the miniVap, the MaxiVap is the size of a 55 gallon drum? Hahahhaa

Welp after finishing this informative and entertaining tread I'm sure only one thing will help me get vapman off my mind... unexpected vape purchase haha.

Right now I use the pnp for pure stealth on the go and easy sharing with friends. I use the hammer at home for tasting and personal use. I have full intentions of picking up an e nano sometime after the holidays. I just cant the vapman out of my mind so once I get my paycheck im hitting buy now.

Few general questions..

First is comparison of bowl size between the hammer and vapman?

I can fill my hammer half way and thats about the best way to start my day not too much but enough to get me going.

Second is I don't own a torch light. So where is the best place to order the vapman with the vapman torch? (Im in the states on the east coast)

Is there black friday/cyber monday sales on vapes..!!!?

Third and final, moreless just an over asked opinion question. But do I order the mica or start out pure and upgrade to the mica with time?

I really dont have the extra money but would perfer to get something that ill be happy with the first time vs repurchasing to fulfill my vaping needs.

I really appreciate all the input, tips, suggestions and opinions everyone has contributed to this tread. So much love for this vape I just cant wait.

Peace and thanks again everyone.
order direct from vapman...he also has a torch lighter you can add.

Thanks @hoyo77 That was definitely my first spot to check straight at the source, just wasn't sure if it would be the cheapest and most efficient way giving that its has to travel over seas and through customs.

Maybe u can give share ur opinion on the amount used in a hammer stem compared to the vapman?

Hello people!

I've been doing some charas hash(moroccen,afgan) with this wonderful device for over a month with the concentrate screen and I have some thoughts. Some people wrote about when you know when its done from the taste. If i properly heat up very slowly I manage to have like 15-25 hits(with herb lower like 5-15) without knowing for sure where all the effectable ingredients have been inhaled and harmful begins..

I count the visible hits if I blow the vapor close in a very light lamp but with black backround I can see the vapor full visible clearly HD and the same vapor is invisible in common room.

I am using the screen for one month and it is working perfectly. I still have a liitle worries if I am going too far sometimes.I heat with medium flame.In the beginning hash from black color start to get soft and brown and i inhale good flavour tastefull 4-7 first hits and if i stop here, in the cleaning i get something like used eraser leftovers still a little sticky. If I keep heating more for 3sec- pause 2sec the hash starts to get black again and hard and I can get strong 1 or 2 lungbuster hits that maybe little cough and big clouds.Then if i heat more I can produce 5+ hits good clouds, dry taste but not so bad taste as the hits continuous. Usually I stop here. Then you could do another 5+hits but very dry taste and bad taste.
When I see the vapor is still not smoke.. WTF is magical thing makes infinity?
Then if i clean the screen i get something like hard black powder (sure not ash) but looks like coal.

I tried to do 2 different sessions with the same stuff. Only the first flavour 10 hits and very very after the last 10 hits.. Both made had taken the same effects maybe the last hits a little heavier.

Can you tell me what are your thoughts about it?

Also I cought myself inhaling for so much seconds and lower it a little bit. The same about for keeping the vapor inside lungs.. Now I thing I do about 10sec each.. The manual says 5-15 for inhaling..
What fits for you and is there any limit or the only bad for you is if could forget to breath again and die ?

I am very fan of the heating station, dont stop the miracles Rene(my keyboard dont support έ) !!!

Could you suggest me the most silence lighters from what you have tried (and suitable for our friend) ?


Cheers!!

The Vapman site has good deals for sets that include the Vapman and liighter..... but you may want to compare the pricing with some of the US retailers....I know Vapornation have a 10% discount on at the moment.

I have 2 Vapman's/Vapmen - both are the Basic/Pure model - I just prefer simplicity I guess. I've never tried the Mica, but opinions here seem to be pretty mixed. Some members with both prefer the Basic, others the Mica. The Vapman site states that there's no difference in the performance between the two. I'm not sure if that helps you at all...:shrug: :)

I got my mica because at the time puff-it-up was running an amazing deal..now they have come to realize what a gem the vapman is. you cannot go wrong with either version. the non mica version has been on the scene for years!!

@Philreal187 I got mine at Toronto Vaporizer. They give you the option of a free gift, the Zeus torch lighter, unless you really need the grinder, but they also give you a % off discount on their other products. The torch hasn't broken down on me and I've had my Vapman since last Christmas. It's in Canada but they have pretty great deals and discounts most of the time. Also I can recommend their dehumidor box for drying out your herb to really get that great vape. As someone else stated above Vapor nation is good as well, bought my Aromed from them, but Toronto Vaporizer's lime of products is way nice! Hope that helps! The Vapman is really a great vape you won't be disappointed!

Thursday night, my Persei/Herc stopped heating. No flashing lights or anything, just no heat (eventually got Herc fixed, but that's a different thread).

As luck would have it, on Friday I acquired two concentrate screens for the walnut Vapman. Checked the website and the instructions seemed simple enough (except for the part that suggests you wipe the filter after each inhalation---WTF???---Ain't nobody got time for that).


Rolled a small cylinder of wax and dropped it onto the newly installed screen. For the first draw, I heated twice for 5 seconds. After that, it was 5-6 seconds of heat/draw. In terms of taste, I'm surprised to report that I give the edge to Vapman. It's not a huge difference, but enough to be noticed. I surmise that the more gentle heat of the Vapman avoids any hints of scorch.

The Vapman quickly begins gassing off a thin vapor trail that I haven't seen escaping while using herb. However, it didn't seem to have any odor so Vapman and Herc tie on olfactory stealth.

After two back to back sessions, totaling 14 draws (only have crap wax), I'd have to say the Vapman hit very nicely. Perhaps a slight bit harder than Herc but I'll need a few more tests.

After a single maiden voyage, I'm very impressed with the Vapman and its concentrate screen. At the price point, Vapman is unbeatable. I was once a huge Launchbox fan but now I say, "Launchbox who???" There is simply no comparison, except for the incredible stealth of the LB.

Back to the Herc (SR.-71)... This is a much closer contest. Both units are excellent. Herc crushes Vapman on stealth...I've used Herc with people very near and they were none the wiser. Just can't pull that off with Vapman (I'm excited about the new electric heating project but it's only a minor improvement in stealth and I'm sure stealth wasn't a big consideration). In terms of price, Vapman wins easily and you won't feel intimidated trying to figure out what the hell you need to purchase (Persei/Herc can be a bit daunting for the uninitiated). In terms of clean-up, I'm going to go out on a limb and say Vapman wins. Taking the Herc apart, cleaning it to restore the contacts, and dealing with all the oozing wax was a real pain in the ass...Vapman just doesn't have the complexity.

In summary, comparing Vapman to Persei/Herc:

Taste - slight edge to Vapman
Stealth - huge edge to Herc
Odor - tie
Cost - Vapman
Ease of use/maintenance - Vapman
Flexibility - Vapman (herb and wax without needing extra attachments)

(Don't get me wrong, I still love the Herc...just think it may not be the right choice for everyone.)

So, if you're on a budget, want to dabble in wax while still having the option for herb, and don't need heavy stealth, Vapman is absolutely the way to go. If you're not on a budget, WTF are you waiting for??? You cannot do wrong by getting yourself a Vapman (I'm sold on the mica/exotic wood but might consider a middle product that puts an interesting char on the Basic -- @vapman, what about it?) I see three price points:

Vapman Raw - for budget users and those who want to DIY a char
Vapman Char - for budget users who want cool looks without the exotic expense
Vapman Mica/Exotic - for those not on a budget

Of course, it's not my product and it's none of my business...just spitballing...

Enjoy, all.

ETA:
Two other things:
1. With the Herc, it's difficult to tell how much load you have. Take off the mouthpiece and you're looking down a dark barrel into sludge. With Vapman, pull the top and you know instantly. Advantages: Vapman
2. For me, I can't avoid coughing with the Herc. Just as it seems to be with herb, Vapman vapor is more tolerable/forgiving to my throat. Advantages: Vapman

I'm a little surprised at how this turned out because I do love my Herc.
