New Vaporizer User Looking to Buy, Recommendations?

[Bvcs]

I'm usually a bong smoker, and I like to take some massive hits. My bong broke and I was going to buy a high end one to replace it, but I think I might want to switch to a vaporizer both for efficiency and to give my lungs a break. I know I'm not going to be able to get comparable hits from a vaporizer, but what would you suggest would be closest to that? I was thinking of getting a direct draw vaporizer because I read you can get bigger hits from them and they are more efficient. Price isn't a huge issue, I'd rather fork out some extra cash to get a quality product.

All I have experience with is the Volcano, I'd like to get stronger hits than that but I still enjoy using it. I have read that I can get vaporizer that is better and cheaper and was led to this site for advice. Thanks in advance.

if you can wait for the launch release then i'd suggest the Vape xhale cloud.

or if you want one tomorrow! I think the SSV (silver surfer vape) or maybe the Supreme would suit you best.

welcome to fc, and btw this should have been posted in the ask fc section. it will probably get moved there fyi

If you're a bong smoker then you'd enjoy vapor-bonging with a vape that produces thick clouds.

i love the supreme vaporizer because it imitates the feeling and ritual of the bong. Get to use a ligher and it is able to milk tubes quite comparably to smoke if you crank it up.

the vapexhale would definitely be #1 as far as vapor-bonging goes but the supreme is less than half the price & portable.

Here's a supreme vapor bong video i made before to get an idea of it

edit: kinda sad watching that video again, the bong just broke recently

Check Magic wand/VHW/Herborizer/Verdampfer

1.Magic wand is multy functional vaporizer that allows direkt inhalation via hand attachment + a whip can be connected to the glass hand attachment allows you yo explore the benefits of low temp vaping..
2. Made for vape bonging.. If you crank the hear on 3 o-clock on the dial.. you can extract almost all thats good in 1-2 rips.. Which is most like classic bong rip. The cloud is fat and visual.. and tasty ..
and it has 14 mm bowl, a 18mm and 9 mm adapter that fits the 14 mm bowl.. U can stack bowls btw..
The 18mm bowl fits in the 14 mm bowl and you can load both with different herbs .. or the upper one with concentrate the other one with herb.

3.Also soon there is a bag-blowing update to come that will feature a quiet air-pump and smth like the volcano solid valve..
4.Lifetime warranty ..
VHW honestly i have never tried.. But Stone Monkey (VapeXhale) i think is the one that stands behind The VHW.. It goes with a bowl and there is even a Vriptech bong piece in the full pack..
SM says it cannot be beaten on taste.
Its all glass like the mw but you must hold it because it cannot be attached to the bowl.. and has more breakage issues than the mw.. Thats why i didn't go with it.
Everyone that has tried it says its a top notch vape for vape bonging..

For the other two vaporizers i have tried the Verdampfer and its very good... also goes with a bong.. like the herborizer does.. both have nichrome element in the airpath,.., Thats why i didnt go with them.
http://www.puresativa.com/products.php?keyword=roor-vaporizers -- This one looks like herborizer.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ap18IvLLUB0
I gave more info on the MW because that the only vape of those i own and its my daily driver since i first plug it in..

Just wait for the Cloud. It seems like it's exactly what you're describing even if it isn't out yet.

+1 to the Supreme for vapor bonging.

DBV and SSV are also huge cloud makers as well and go well with glass. (Or without if you prefer)

And of course the Cloud would be your ideal solution, but you are going to have to wait a little bit for its release.

No, don't wait for the Cloud - not if you're a big smoker. Get one of the ones recommended here that are already available. So by the time the Cloud comes out, you will probably have saved enough money with the efficiency of vaping to cover the cost of your vape. And if you really want a Cloud then, get one, and sell your old one if you feel like it.

This isn't necessarily true. I started using 3 times the amount of weed I used to smoke when I started vaping and bought a Silver Surfer. But the man said money was no object so it's a non-issue anyways.

I still recommend a Surfer though. Can't go wrong with a Surfer if you want big clouds. You'll probably end up buying more vapes eventually if you get into vaping (it's a disease I tell ya), so if that Cloud ever comes out you can just buy it too.

 

[Lo]

I'd say SSV too... You can always get the Cloud down the line but I do feel I could convert any bong smoker with my SSV It can hit like a big bong!!

 

[Qbit]

Well of course speaking as a new Silver Surfer user, I can definitely offer my recommendation as well. Excellent bong replacement - fat hits galore.

Recently having the opportunity to experience the delight of the Arizer Solo, I would have to suggest it... being so small, it can be passed around like a bong while really kicking out the vapor. Also you can use it with a bong and then you have the best of both worlds.
