I've watched a video on the ssv and what I took from it was steady inhales,so if you inhale to fast its on the verge of combusting but too slow and the heat doesn't vape much,if that is the case if used bongs since I started smoking and I think that would have helped me have the steady inhale correct me if I'm wrong, cheers for the info I will gt looking at the other vapes :peace::leaf:


If you want to use the SSV with a water pipe you might try the LSV

with vapes, it is actually the opposite to bongs in regards to draw speed; pull slow and you with get massive cloud and the risk of combustion, but pull fast, and it is cooler as the air spends less time in one place and doesn't build up heat ;)

lol, I'm down south, and an ex-bong smoker; I find my current setup with a bubbler to be the perfect way to stop combusting as it retained the ritual, still bubbles, and blow clouds as thick as bong smoke ;)

I ordered mine from Namastevapes December 2010, and its been my daily driver ever since, plugged in and left on basically.

My bubbler was only £26, though, it you want to, the same design can be has for $400 it you don't like Chinese made glass.

Affordable setup, and it essentially an electric bong.

Having the bubbler, if you should purchase a portable, you can still pop them into it, too, so something like the Vapman [always good to have a torch powered backup] can be plugged in, and hits like a desktop ;)

You can get a cosmetic second unit from 7th Floor for much less than a full retail unit btw

I am sure this has been asked before but I am a little unclear. Is the volcano the most efficient vape or does it depend on your technique with other vapes.
For example, is the volcano more efficient than the enano? Or can I get the same effects with either with the same amount of herb? I see the LSV also mentioned as a comparison a couple pages back. Used correctly can I get the same results with an LSV as with the volcano?
If I want to do a load similar to an enano or Arizer Air load (about 0.15 I think) do I just load that up in the volcano and get multiple standard size bags? I could see the volcano being much more consistent in temp but am I going to get more effects from the same size load in the volcano? Is that a viable size load for the volcano or is that too small?
I like the simplicity of the enano compared to filling bags but my number one priority is efficiency of effects. Can anyone tell me if I need to move up to the volcano to get the most out of my herb? I am more of a sipper than a ripper so I just want to take it easy and get the most of my greens.

I've been using the LSV daily for 4 years and had a Volcano for about 5 years before the LSV. With my LSV falling apart and researching new vapes I decided the best choice was to go back to the Volcano. My new one should arrive in just a few days so I'll be able to do a direct comparison. I'll also try loading my LSV as usual but then dumping it into the Volcano to see how it works with the amount I used in the LSV. However you can get denser vapor which I prefer by loading more in the Volcano, so what I think I'll do is instead of reload the LSV 3-4 times as I normally do, I'll load 3-4 LSV loads in the Volcano and do just one larger load.

  • My experience with the Volcano vs enano ranks the enano as much more efficient. I'm a lightweight so only do very small loads (like 0.015 gram). The Volcano has a massive chamber, more conducive to big loads. My small load in the Volcano looks like I forgot to completely empty the chamber after the last load ;) I rate the enano as one of the most efficient vapes, the miniVAP as another super efficient vape.
  • I find bag vapes to all have an efficiency handicap as all that cool surface area condenses out some of the goodies. Not a huge deal for those that want cool vapor but it's an efficiency loss.
  • I think enano is tough to beat for efficiency.
  • Volcano is a great vape but I would not say efficiency is a strength

Volcano is an epic party piece, and with a full bowl, can fuck an entire room up in a very short space of time, but it isn't the best as a solo unit, imo

I am on a hiatus so I can't remember if it is .15 or .015 :doh: but this is exactly what I wanted to know. Thanks for the feedback, all.

Everyone seems to claim it is a group vape. Do any fc members use it solo?
YES, I use my Digit ALONE Everyday morning and night to Medicate. 4 bags morning and 4 bags night. It works Awesome:tup:. I've never used it with a Group or Crowd, but I'm sure it will work Awesome as always:tup: Good luck with your purchase and Happy Vaping :rockon:

I bought mine for my own use and I've used it for that since, just brought it to a friends once or twice but it's excellent for solo imo.
You do the vaporizing first, then the consuming each time. Nothing could be more relaxing or pain relieving than curling up with a full bag last thing at night!
Almost all other vapes you're operating or emptying the thing during and/or after consumption?
Last year I entered this world of vaporizers the wrong way, trying to save money. With this Volcano I'm delighted to now be able to relax about the materials quality or what's going in my lungs (although I still use a P2 from time to time).

I was worried with people saying it's only good for crowds, do I consume that much??...!

Ah so you're the person with the 4 bags! I was trying this the other day and wow, 3 is nearly enough sometimes. Nice to have a set, dependable dose though. Happy vaping to you too!

It's almost like we're all different and like other stuff
Actually, as I thought it over this morning, it hit me that it really may not suit someone else, and I have a not so normal lifestyle and maybe that's why it suits me!
Or maybe I'm biased because its the beginning, and I'm trying to prove that it is good for solo use, but the thing is fucking me up and I'm too high and dont realize yet!
But yes, I did think that and meant to make reference to it in my post, sorry.
All views are purely mine though and no overshadowing of other peoples views intended!

Edit, only slightly negative things I have found are the noise from the bags, and the fact the thing looks like a child's toy, although we are obliged to keep it out of reach so that's my problem.

You think it looks like a toy? I always thought it looked like an oven

I cranked mine up the other day, and I still love it, buy it doesn't suit my style, which is a single ripper, a few times a day, not doing the same strain more than twice,rather than like the 'cano, which has a full bowl that lasted me an entire day, but only a single strain :)
