What is your vote for the most durable plug in vape?

I have had a DaBudha for over 6 years and it seems pretty durable unless you bend the ceramic element which is fairly well protected.

What is your vote for the most durable vape and why? Could it survive Animal House or would it become like Flounders car.. Deathmobile?

I've got an E-Nano vaporizer I've been using almost non-stop since I purchased it in June 2014. I've knocked it over, tripped over the cable, left it running at max temperature for a day, etc.

Yet still after almost two years of non stop daily use (and running 24/7 at vaping temperatures), I'd say this vape has been extremely durable.

The only part which *can* break is my glass bubbler or 18mm GonG adapter, but those parts are replaceable (and you can get non-glass stems which make the vape much more durable overall)

I have been looking at an e-nano for purchase and I'm glad you guys really like yours. Kind of hard to argue against its reliability as there really isn't that much too it to break. Nice KISS design.

I understand its really good with really small doses which appeals to me.

But I still love my Volcano LOL

Love, love the Enano so one more vote. It's durable and well made by a fellow FCer. @ACE OF VAPE. Very sturdy and each one is a piece of vaporizer wooden art.

I have two a cherry and a walnut and they are beautiful. Excellent flavor, easy maintenance and doesn't use very much cannabis to get you medicated. You will save on your cannabis for sure. Mine is my fav vaporizer.

@CarolKing, What are some of the key differences between the E-Nano and the EVO? Like you, I love my EVO - and I am so curious about how you benefit from or enjoy both. Most specifically, what do you appreciate about your E-Nano that our beloved EVOs do not provide you.

Thanks! :)

Yep, not to derail the thread, but I was literally just going to ask @CarolKing the same exact question.

Bowls, attachments, GonGs and whatnot must be considered in a durable vape! (how can one vape without these things)

So definitely the King of Kings for durable vaporizer would be an herbalAire. It can be dropped from extreme heights, the TonG is unbreakable, the cord design means you can whip it around by the cord with no damage... it's a beast when it comes to durability.

I like that I can just leave the nano out and plugged in. It blends into the surroundings. I also like the size. I don't like something big and bulky. The simplicity of a log vape appeals to me.

I think if I drop my EVO I don't think it would hold up with the inner glass lining. It would be an expensive fix. The flavor is awesome with the EVO and the Enano. The glass nail with the EVO is its strong point. I use concentrates with the EVO vs the Enano.

The EVO glass is so expensive. I just got an advertisement from VapeXhale for a glass piece that was $450. I spent the $150 for the Hydrobomb when it was on sale. I thought that was a lot. I don't spend a lot on glass. It breaks too damn easy.

I like my EVO but like the Enano for throughout the day. I'm more of a sipper rather than lung busting draw person. I can get lung busting draws from the Enano as well. The EVO is for before bed. The ELBs are expensive to buy and so is a lot of the other accessories. I thought I would use the EVO more but the nano fits into my life better. I don't want to get wrecked during the day. The EVO will get you wrecked for sure.

I vaporize for pain. Some days I don't use much cannabis but other days I rely on it more. I'm unable to take any form of anti inflammatories. I have arthritis in my feet and low back as well as my thumb joints on each hand. I try to stay moving and cannabis helps me do that.

It's just personal preference. What one person's fav isn't someone else's. You don't know if you will really like a vaporizer until you buy. I'm not sorry that I bought the EVO. It's just kinda expensive for how often I use it. We can only give our opinion.

I think reading through 10 pages or so of the threads of a few vaporizers you are interested in. That's the best way to decide. Ask questions of the folks that are watching a particular thread.

I enjoy using somewhat a variety of vaporizers but I have some portables I don't even use anymore. Some that I used a week or so then put away. It just didn't appeal to me. Every so often I will get them out.

I reread something regarding the Enano. There is glue by the electrical outlet but not in the air path. I had mis read and someone PMd me and brought it to my attention. So I need to make sure that I don't spread mis information. Sorry.

It's a great vaporizer regardless.

I was gifted a VapeXhale Cloud (OG, pre Evo). While I honestly like it MORE than my friend's evo, I still prever my E-Nano to the Cloud.

The Cloud is just so big and inefficient (by my use patterns), I always find myself going for the E-Nano instead of the Cloud.

These days the only time I pull out the cloud is if I'm having a party with friends (who still smoke and think vaporizers are weak), or if I'm in the mood to play with a hydratube.

Otherwise I'm more happy playing with my E-Nano and a sidecar bubbler since I'm usually vaping by myself and using only a little herb per session.

what makes it "sturdier" than the UD or HI?

I cannot comment on the HI because I am still waiting for mine to be made. All log vapes have their own unique characteristics and I honestly love them all.

IMO the nano is heavier and contains alot more metal. The inside area surrounding the heater cover is shielded with a metal sleeve. Blowing into the heating element produces a neutral scent rather than subtle hints of caramelizing wood (which I personally like BTW). To me the Nano is essentially a metal unit with a wooden heat shield and I would be willing to bet that it would come out on top in crush/drop test without much difficulty. :2c:
