The Herbalizer

Help ... If a guide with tips & tricks exists here, where?

RE: accessorising - what would a noob add on? Flexcone baskets look good ... other opinions, including potential replacement of the concentrate aromapads, appreciated.

@Ratchett's herbalizer song 2.0 is a game changer. Prevents vapor escape and works perfect with the Herbie bags and whips.

I also really like using the volcano solid valve system.

In the Herbalizer Development Forum, a very small forum for the engineers at Herbalizer, The Creator (Josh Young), and a couple of early Beta Testers.. myself and @Slightly Medicated ,I addressed the issue of the cool grip slipping.
I said:
Vitolo 8/17/2013:
The black silicone that gives us grip, at the chambers top (cover) is held in place by
and amount of "extruded" material that snaps in place around the plastic housing...
into two "notches" on opposite sides of the plastic itself.
This leaves two areas that do not have notches to "pinch" the extruded silicone.
This has only happened to me one time, naturally during use....
If you reach for the chamber and grab right in that spot ... the silicone ring tries to slip off.
This was easily averted by turning the chamber a bit and rocking it off it's magnet by another spot..
and holding it a bit more securely.
This link will show a private video spot of the concept I speak of;

The Inventor of the Herbalizer, Joshua Young responded:
Josh 8/18/2013:
Great video it really helps communicate the issue. Correcting that will require a totally new bowl/grip design and that will take time. We started designing an improved bowl that stays much cooler and where the grip is well secured, but we got sidetracked. The issue is noted and will be factored into the second generation.

In spite of the unfortunate situations that led to the Inventor/Creator and CEO of Herbalizer Josh Young and the marketing genius Sheila Hoyt no longer being a part of the "corporation" *,
the engineers at Herbalizer were made very aware of this issue I pointed out three years ago.
Whether they chose to follow through with this is not certain, as Sheila Hoyt and Josh Young were my main contacts all through the Beta testing and until they both were no longer at Herbalizer.
I do know my second set of grips worked from 2013 until 2015... the composition of the grips was the same, I just think I learned to handle the chamber better when removing it from the Vaporizer.
As I said:

* If you want the story send me a message.
By coincidence (:rolleyes:) yesterday... a couple of days since I mentioned the HDF (Herbalizer Development Forum) and was able to point out comments and MORE truths about what is going on .... and who did what and said what.... Someone got in there and closed all access to this forum. (try the link... you will see) although many of you already went there and saw there WAS a forum... Evidence of monkey-business.
It is obvious that SOMEONE did not want evidence that there was a forum existing.
WHO WITH ACCESS HAS HIDDEN THE TRUTH??

Unless things get back on target....
and until/unless they get the Creator and Marketing person back, it is my prediction that support will definitely suffer.
I personally am pissed that they closed down the HDF (forum I mentioned.)
It was a place I could go and retrieve video links, images, and timelines for the ideas we came up with there, and the solutions discussed.
Having a TBI (brain injury)... it helped me to review the past, and remember things that happened through the year 2013.

Shame
on whoever "covered up" that piece of history and memories.
It was wrong to remove a source of evidence of Josh's plans and visions, and how we all that were present worked out the solutions.

"DANG" ...

But, when a better way idea becomes real, like this, a bigger, hungrier, "business" is usually observing ... every time ... prophetic visions notwithstanding ... The "PC" term we use to describe this is: COMPETITION for market share ...

Go figure ...

Ordered one Moday morning from vapor nation, received it Friday, plugged it in minutes after unboxing and got this " herbie is sick please send to herbalizer for repair" . So sad I got a DOA but I talked to Carissa on phone and she had a return shipping label in my inbox about an hr later, said she'd expedite one back to me as soon as mine showed in UPS system, I shipped it at 9 this morning so we will see how quickly one makes it backed to Ohio, nothing has shipped today so I'm guessing it won't go out till Monday. I'll keep you folks updated but other than my dissapointment with a DOA unit so far herbalizer company has been great! Anxiously awaiting my first herbie experience.

I picked up a herbalizer song 2.0 and I was wondering if there were more hydratubes on dhgate but are called something else.

If you're in central Ohio, you're welcome to head over here and give mine a try while you wait.

Ok, just got mine a few hours ago and lordy, lordy, lordy. I am stoned! Hahaha.

Ok, seriously this vape is by far the best I've used and haven't even tried the bags yet. Well built, EASY as pie to use and the taste and size of clouds were incredible. Coolest vaper I've ever tasted too even at high temps. Wow. I thought the Plenty and Evo were great, and they are. But this thing is the King. Wow.

@faksakes & @Rockstarr - how's the learning curve going? Anything interesting to share re result usage?

For me, if this is the way to vape, I need a lot more patience ... Skipped the dry & went with concentrated version as that is my preference. I ca n't get used to the pads; who uses what?

Back to dry for passed several days & am following the "start low, go up 5, etc. DANG ... Push it every time!!!

As far as clouds, rare & not very thick.
Kanger & nautilus tanks supplement herbs work at home while needing to be out.

IDK Y this thing is cause for so much love - want to see it though ....

If you're using only concentrates you will be disappointed. This is a flower vape. It can do concentrates as a low temp session, but you will never get a dab type hit experience from it.

My experience with concentrates has always been messy with the Herbalizer. The only way I was ever able to use them was to melt a half drop into a bed of ground herbs. This way I could dump the lot out without gunking my screens and chamber. The pad is useless for concentrates, it plugs too fast and can flip over in the airstream.

Too, there was mention of hempfiber, but no thanks ... will try to focus on prime purpose.

Someone will figure it out ..., yes?

i've been experimenting!

1568znt.jpg


i have 14 genetics today (from a gram to a few grams) and will be buying about 6 more in a day or 2. i'm a whore for genetics!

i've gone through a few grams of hash. oil, shatter, wax and kief! i like to be thorough! :)

like sticksstones says, i like to sandwich the hash. put it on one pad and put the other pad on top. seems to work well. i put the temp at 445 and a little bit of hash fills a bag with vapy goodness. i also use a nectar collector and i don't see a difference in high between using the herbie (balloon) or using the nectar collector. i need to try it out a few more times to see if i notice much of a difference. i also just throw wax and kief on top of some pot and let the herbie do it's thing at 220ish degrees. i do cough more using the collector than when vaping through the herbie.


one time the machine wouldn't turn off even when i closed the lip. i think i gave it too many commands too quickly or something stoner worthy like that. so i unplugged it and plugged it back in and it worked fine.

i finally got around to changing out the solid valve bag. it was pretty easy. i made the bags just big enough so when the herbie kicks off after 90? seconds, the bag is just getting full. i need to find a way to hold the volcano solid valve down while the bag fills. that's a bit of a drag but not not too bad.

i turn this thing on and off maybe 16 times a day so it's getting a workout. i also need to slow down as i'm vaping 1.5 gr a day and sometimes 2 grams. before i started buying from stores, i only needed 3/4 of a gram a day. i think i need to dry out a bit. but not today!

i've been on a harry potter and pot binge for the last 2 days.

I've been going crazy with it too. I want to use it all the time just because of how fun it is. I mostly use the bags but the whip is great too.

I can't get over the quality of vapor. Fyi all i don't use concentrates just flowers.

I apologize if this has already been discussed but I'm not an Herbalizer owner. A friend of mine has one and she needs to replace the tubing, so I'm doing a little research to help her out. I notice that what's available on the site is a whip kit but not the tubing itself. Can you fill me in on what the options are and where to go to purchase? thanks...

SSV tubing is pretty much the best you're going to get.
