Bag Vs Whip method, which do you prefer and why? Want to buy Extreme Q

[vapeguy]

I have a Volcano and am on the verge (likely hours away) of ordering an Extreme Q to replace my Volcano. My reasons are: it gets great reviews, has a glass airway, 3 functions (bag, whip, air freshener), and I'll get a lot more for my Volcano than the Extreme Q costs, so I end up with extra cash.

The air freshener feature means I won't have to hide it, and I will use it as an air freshener with essential oils (I always wanted an air freshener that had adjustable temp and could work with essential oils, so I'll finally get that at the same time also!). So if someone asks I say it's an air freshener which it actually also is.

What I want to know is do you prefer bags (of either Extreme Q or Volcano) or whip and why?

I'm thinking I am going to much prefer the whip method, I think inflating bags and disconnecting them after each inflate and replacing them when they start to leak is a waste, why go through all that trouble, time and expense when you can go direct with a whip?

Am I right about this? What's the advantage of a bag other than obviously being able to go anywhere with it?

Thanks

When I was new to vaping couple years ago, I always used the bag cause it was easy, looked impressive to my guests that I was entertaining.

then as I became more seasoned with vaping, I switched to elbow packing the whip... saves herb, tastes good, I like the direct hit ..

now I only bring out the bag for group usage, especially with non vaporists, because bags are fool proof, doesnt have any learning curve.... so it will work for everyone.

Pros of bags:

Taste (in the whip -and I love the whip- you'll have 100% flavor on 1st hit, 75% of flavor on 2nd, 50% on 3rd and continuous dicrease VS. the bag where the flavor will be trapped in a closed volume and therefore you'll have a continuous good flavor!)

Drawfree vapor : this can be a whip con if you don't have enough lung power

Newbee friendly: the bag will be easier to deal with for your newbie friends

Party friendly: the bag is easier in multiple people vaping sessions

BTW Steven, you can do bags with the elbow method and save the same herb through bags...
