The Herbalizer

I don't see the harm in asking about price. I have a feeling this is all going to get moved, as we've taken it off course a bit...but I think a healthy discussion about vape pricing is a good thing. We often assume we are being taken for a ride, and that may be the case at times, but not always. We don't know what their costs for start up are, etc.

Now if we want to point fingers at an overpriced vape, Volcano would be where to start. I think they have been in business long enough to offer a price break...but they don't.

Never would do that on credit card buy a vaporizer I dont need bank calling whats this. Especially living on east coast

Most places that sell paraphernalia bill your card with something vague and innocuous, with no mention of what you bought, and usually a secondary business name just for the billing end. e.g. PipesDaddy bills as "Northside Distributor". Your bank won't even blink.

I'm gonna wait until Tweek gets his, and he does a full-length video review of it, and then I'll decide if I need yet another vape...

This might be a dumb question but why would the bank even care? If my bank ever gives me grief I would drop them. Are you just worried there is a record of this purchase?

If the bank suspects that you're using its services to do anything even remotely illegal, I'm pretty sure they're required to report you to authorities. So it's mostly a covering-your-ass thing.

it's not illegal to follow a doctor shamen's advice to vaporize some white sage or valerian.

However, buying 5 vapes in 2 weeks might seem curious, even if not illegal. but only the NSA could notice that out of the petabytes that stream through the credit card processing centers.

Wow, you're really going out on a limb here to try to make a point.

What do you mean? It was someone else's point, I was just explaining/hypothesizing why vendors might use discrete banking info. If people are trying to be discrete, someone at some point must've gotten in trouble. It's just like using blank packaging - why bother, if the vape could just be for potpourri?

Anywho, shouldn't we be talking about the Herbalizer and not packaging paranoia?

I can't wait to hear more about this vaporizer, the videos for it are really promising and it might even set the new standard for plug in vapes..Who knows.

I live on the east coast and the nsa can suck it. They can't assume I do anything illegal with this. Tons of herb shops around anyways.

I hope this is under 400 and comes with a Genesis emulator.

Herbalizing and sonic the hedgehog. I can see it now.

Remember human wants and needs are two different issues!

For those of you who have been lucky enough to try both, how does the Herbalizer in whip mode/paired with water tube compare with the new Cloud? Debating which to save up for. The Herbie obviously costs more because of the zillion awesome things it can do, but can it do water better?

...I'll probably get the Herbie, anyway, lol. My birthday is in October, so it can be my present to myself

Reserved again, at the new discount, but given there's no country field I suspect I probably won't be able to buy this thing anyway. :c

Herbalizer guys? Is there going to be a 240v model? This thing becomes way less portable and convenient if I have to lug around a 10lb transformer with it too. I contacted you via the form on your site with the same question a couple weeks ago, but haven't had a reply as yet.

I don't think I'm personally looking for it to be better but in fact as good to make in my prime rotation. I think each vape serves a different purpose. I can't see the comparison between Herbie and the Cloud EVO. But I do see both being on top, there's no doubt that both will be dope!



EDIT: Reserved

Also hope they will ship outside the US, emailed them a week or two ago but didn't get a response.

Magic

This looks great, I can't wait to try it out.

There's a sort of buzzing sound in the demo video, is that coming from the herbalizer? I can't figure out if its just ambient noise because you can hear it slightly before the herbalizer is turned on. It does seem to get louder once the camera is brought closer to the unit. Can anyone confirm or deny?

I love the looks and the science of this but it will have a hard time breaking into my lineup. I do wonder if it can dethrone the volcano but I'm not into bag vapes anyways. The forced air whip thing seems like it would be a cool thing to try but not at this price.

It looks like a great setup for a medical user with limited lung function but perhaps edibles would be better in that case. So while it's not for me I'm sure this will find a niche.

I was curious to know if you had to use the fan in whip mode or if you can just relax and draw on the whip at your own pace. I don't know if I would like having to constantly turn the fan on and off during my draws. I was hoping that it would be around the 500 dollar price point. It does look like an innovative new machine though.

I think from a taste perspective the Herbalizer would have a hard time beating a cloud/water combo only because the cloud is all glass (except the stainless steel of the ELB). Over time the whip will have some buildup which will affect taste and I have never had much success getting a whip clean. Every type of whip I have tried had this issue. However, from a convenience factor, precision temp control, and the multi-function use I think the Herbalizer would have the edge based on what I have read.

There is no perfect vape but now you have a nice high end alternative that excels for certain features.

So it's voice-activated? If so, that feature does help address NinjaMindTriks concern about having to constantly turn the fan on and off rather than being able to relax. Not total relaxation as you have to constantly tell it what to do, but better than having to manually operate a switch.

If not, not so much as the fan will have to be manually turned on and off depending on if you're inhaling of not, which is what I believe the concern was.
