I hadn't thought about 'bright in operation' . Perhaps the Vapcap, with it's tell tale clicking sound would be the ticket? Then, of course, one wouldn't have to stare at the bright.
I've already got a VapMan and I use it as my 'desk top', in that, it's hooked up to my MFLB Orbiter. I like the look of the Lotus but it's not available in Canada (that I know of).
In Canada you can get the Vapman from www.bcvapor.ca for $89.00 Canadian dollars ($67.00 US)

As far as I know the Lotus can't be bought in Canada.
Producers are working out some details with climate change etc. but they claim it's a go after everything else gets sorted out.
I, for one, am hoping Sean Penn is involved.
I see that you have both the Vapman and the Lotus. I use the Vapman with my bubbler (MFLB Orbiter) with great success and I was thinking about getting a Lotus to use the same way. Do you think there's any difference in results between these two. They really seem to be very similar in use. BTW it...
Vaponic is cool because you don't grind, you just place a nug in the chamber, re-sleeve the tube, and hit it with your torch. Also has a way cool, stealth, carry tube.
