Gn0me or Vapocane B

[b0]

So I have been for a long time thinking about ordering a Gn0me of the new ones, this model:

But just saw the Vapocane B, wich seems to work the same way and will coste me half of Gn0me:

Anyone tried both? I have seen really impresive videos of the Gn0me in this forum, but don't know much about the Vapocane B.

The main difference between the funnel gn0me and the vapocane is that the funnel is sturdier and it's easier to remove the heating part to stir the bowl than in the Vapocane where you have to use something otherwise you could burn yourself. (i don't own either, so this is just my opinion.)

With that said, i think the gn0me will take longer to get to you. The price is not so different, with posting it would be less than 50USD, ~40€.

IMO, the gn0me would be better but the vapocane will be faster to get to your hands.

here's an older thread on the topic. http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/gnome-or-vaponic-vapocane.8932/

i don't have any personal experience but would like to buy a gnome.

if you notice the gnome has a more defined heating area, I can't help but think this would be a more uniform heat through the material

I believe in gnome air enters with greather velocity which can lead to more rapid vaporization + requires less torch power IME.. (although i have the male gong version) ... Gnome has killer looks.. + is made of Super high quality german Simax glass... compared that vapocane B is the cheap sweatshop version of the True Vapocane... which goes for 60 euro... and again is nowhere near in looks compared to the gnome.. If you wanna have a cooler in design and with more though in it, better functioning ,better looking vape made with love.. i say go with the gnome ...
+ I hate vapocanes screen i it was one of the reason i use it so few times before i sold it.. Herb in my perk ...

Having owned both, I suggest the GnOme over the vapocane.

Thx guys! I was thinking about waiting for the Gn0me version in my pic, but it will be 60$ + shipping and the vapocane is just 30€ and will have it in a couple of days.

But that post from vaporonly really helped a lot. The gn0me seems to be a much better product, with more quality. I think I will wait a little bit more...

Same here. I haven't touched my Vapocane (A) since getting my gn0me.

I think we need to differentiate between each model of the gn0me, since there are the slider, the cone and the funnel, and the cone can be used with or without wpa.

As long as you have that in mind b0,

I want the one in the pic. I'm only going to use it with my bubbler or to take it to friend's house and use it with his bong.

What about the eclipse h2o? How does it compare to these?

The gnome website looks iffy! No good pics or videos and still has 2012 on bottom page, uh oh...

The eclipse h20 is for concentrates, so it is a completely different type of vaporizer.

The website has never been impressive to me, but as most others around here, I just ordered directly from Calen via email. Just make sure you order the WPA if you want to connect it to your glass.

 

[SSVUN~YAH]

Good lookin out Stu! address or link???

 

[Stu]

I just looked and was unable to find Calen's correct email address, sorry. I'm sure if you asked someone in the gn0me thread, you'll get the info you need.

Gn0me > Vapocane A + B combined

I think the whole alphabet wouldn't get so much love, not even close to what a tiny gnome could .

Toss a silicone boot on the end of a slider mouthpiece and it'll fit a 14mm female joint. I went for the 2fer deal on the website. I can use it with or without water and I've got a backup.

Haven't tried the Vapocane or the Vapocane B, but since those pics of the Gn0me straight WPA with the male heat exchanger are mine, I can definitely vouch for the quality of the product. Have been using this setup with my water pipe for the past few weeks and it's been incredible.
