Hi
This is my first post, ive been reading quite a bit in here over the last few weeks and the amazing amount of info helped me make the decision to get into vaping.
My haze v3 arrived last friday so today is my one week anniversary of fucking combustion! Im very happy with my haze so far but I have a few questions and wondered if anyone could help me.
The other day I fired my haze up and was waiting for a while for it to get tontemp setting 2, eventually the unit just shut off and wouldbt come back on. Put a new battery in when i got home and all was good but i thought there was some sort of battery low warning?
Ive been looking for a case for my vape and will invest in the haze case atvsome point forvwhen im out and about but im currently looking for a case to keep all my gear in (haze plus accessories, grinder etc) anyone have any recommendations? I would also like it to be big enough for me to prep my vaping session in.
I have a few general vaping questions also..
I read somewhere that air must be moving for the likes of thc to pass into the blood stream. If thats the case would it not make more sense to take many smaller draws rather than ten second slow ones?
So far when vaping ive been starting off on setting 2 and working my way up tob4 when I haze my last few blasts. Would it make any difference if I had a quick blast straight at setting 4? Would this be less efficient?
Thanks in advance!
Great choice! the V3 is a work horse... I personally like the little dry herb cans for convenience and keeping the bowls on the v3 clean... the screens work well too, they just add extra stickiness over time in the bowls that needs cleaning , no big deal just something to consider..
the orange light that blinks when the unit is on will blink red if the batt is to low on juice... the orange light too will look dim when you first turn on the unit if the batt is weak and about to die..
I recommend to get a few extra v3 batts- I have 4 batts total and never run out of juice as long as I remember to keep them charged up...
with the v3 case you can carry the vape on one side with the strap and the side with the mesh use it for a small or medium size flat 2 piece grinder etc... the case most likely would hold all your stuff and even has a slot for the haze mouthpieces...
in terms of effective vapor usage... IMO, slow compound absorption works best to benefit from all of the different cannabis molecules that are heat sensitive and release @ certain heat points...
what I've found works best on all my vaporizers is to start the session at around 375 and heat step @ 10 degree F increments until the heat level is maxed out on the unit.... or in the case of the v3 start at level one and go up from there... inhale that vapor at that first heat level until the terpene flavor wears off and then bump up to the next heat level until you notice the vapor taper off some... this is how I gauge vapor on any given vape Session < (the good session lol)... you will start to notice the right time to bump it up as you vape more.. this heat stepping IMO introduces the active therapeutic components in the cannabis in a clean efficient way to your ready to receive cannabinoid receptors... starting out at the highest temp on the v3 would give you a few lung busting hits but most of the heat activated molecules will be wasted on the exhale into the air around you...
another great way to get the most out of your Session HE HE is re-breathing a hit... when you inhale vapor hold it in really deeply a few seconds then start to exhale. when you visibly see vapor on the exhale rebreath it back in and hold a few secs... do this a few times per hit and you effectively increase bio-active absorption... the science= your capacity to absorb compound molecules in your airways is dictated by oxygen... once you take a massive hit you can only absorb actives for a few seconds before your absorption capacity diminishes and new oxygen becomes necessary to reopen absorption... this too is exactly why slower absorption is more efficient... doing this method with smoke is not that possible as its totally nasty to rebreath smoke but with vaporizers it's totally doable= I do it all the time
