That's true, I am getting ahead of myself a bit. I've always been intimidated by the torches, though seeing some of the water filtration add-ons for DHV's has gotten me excited. I'm on a budget so for immediate cold turkey smoke cessation I got the dreaded DaVinci Micro-C (I read up on why it was unrecommended, but, I had a 60% discount at the local dispensary). This has helped me in the immediate while I wait for my POTV Lobo arrive. I know that both of these are fairly beginner vapes but truthfully I'm paralyzed at the amount of options in front of me between desktop vaporizers, ball vapes, Storz & Bickel portables... I think I'm going to spend the next month really deep-diving all my options before moving into something more stable. I'm simultaneously relieved and perturbed by the Micro-C, a lot of the criticisms online are true but I just wanted to have something that would keep me from being completely THC-less and that would stave off any chance of me wanting to reach for the bong.

I don't know a lot about battery vapes but if you think you might keep one foot in the manual, torch-heated world I find some of them good analogues for smoking, and I think that's what helped me switch immediately and effortlessly to vaping. There's a ton of different ones in the Manual Vape thread. Many are portable and pocket-ready, some are capable of desktop levels of power, and others also work with battery or wall power sources to diversify use methods. Most are gorgeous hand-made works of art. And they still deliver some of the best flavor and vapor quality available.

Hope you enjoy your vaping journey--and healthy lungs!

Hey, welcome to FC! I think you will find the Lobo a pleasant step up from your current experience. It can definitely carry you for a while as you sort things out.

You're gonna hear it soon enough, a term we all use eventually, so I'll tell you about it at the outset:
V.A.S., Vape Aquisition Syndrome. Its real.
You've been warned!

When you sent this to me, I had one vape. Today, I have two. I think it got me

Heres my story:
I bought a TM2 in 2024 and loved it, but I still smoked joints(with tobacco) from time to time (I'm in Europe, where this is the norm) and stopped using the TM2 after a few weeks. At the beginning of this year, I bought a Vong and became hooked on manual devices, which made me stop smoking completely. Now, two Tempest V1s and one V2 are in my regular rotation, and I can't imagine going back to smoking it's just too disgusting.
 
In 2017 I purchased a Vivant Alternate, after a weeks usage and no combustion I celebrated by rolling a joint, but I didn't enjoy it, and it didn't get me that high.

After another week of just vaping my friend passed me a joint, I took one drag and it tasted disgusting and I haven't smoked since.

The Vivant only got used for a month and got replaced by better quality vapes. Now I'm well into double figures on vape ownership with a bad case of VAS.

Thanks to ebay user TommyMegaMoto for selling me my first vape, I fucked combustion quite easily.
