Opinions, out of available portables on the market, which is most like the Herbalizer?

[Vicki]

I'm not sure how many people will be able to answer this question, but I didn't want to derail the Herbalizer thread, and I'm really curious.

If you had to chose one portable vaporizer that is most like the Herbalizer, which one would it be?

The Mighty claims to work both by convection and conduction. Because the "cooling chamber" allows some fresh air in when a person draws, hits are somewhat tempered. Dial-in temp settings are great. Real or imagined, to me, the Mighty is closest to the Herbalizer.

MiniVAP?
At least the flavor is on par if not better, as far as calling it a portable, well, it is a portable but not really stealth, but neither is the Mighty.

It does? How exactly? My cooling units are air tight when I test them after cleaning so the only "fresh" air I can see going in there has to come through the device/bowl. Try taking the CU off, block the input with your thumb then draw on the straw. If it leaks something is wrong imho.

Most like herbalizer by fast heatup/flavor? Firefly
Most like herbalizer by consistency and even abv? Mighty/Crafty

Hammer? I will agree that its not the accuracy fiend like the Herbie is but its definitely highly customizable and a Boss in everything it does while being ultra efficient. 8-25 second heat up. I'm sure you've seen my boasting about what the Hammer can do, (convection, conduction, oils). My current oil and bag setup are looking pretty smooth with Delta3DStudios Hammer Stand and Hammer's new exhaust gasket.

Most like the efficiency of the Herbalizer. For example, I just bought a DaVinci Ascent because it is portable and digital. More accurate than my Solo, and more of a going out portable.

I've seen in Stickstones signature, a well known member on the forum, he described the Lotus Vaporizer with wpa as the poor man's Herbalizer.

Yeah, I questioned him about that once 'cause it didn't quite make sense to me.

You are quite right, sir. There is no air-intake in the cooling chamber. Yet it seems as if it is cooled. It might just be power of suggestion....it's the cooling chamber, hence, "cooler".

Right, it cools by running your vapor through a series of baffles, like a muffler on a car. If you look at both halves of the CU you can see where the "ribs" come together to form the "chambers" that the vapor runs through.

Vicki I know how much you love your Herbie. To answer your question I would have to say the minivap. It's pure convection like the Herbie. Now it doesn't have the 10 second heat up but it delivers such tasty, medicating clouds that waiting 5-8 mins isn't a problem at all. The effects are unique and the taste is superior to the Herbie IMO. I strongly suggest looking at it for the portable equivalent of the Herbie. Pm me if you have any questions I'm happy to help

 

[Kaptan]

The Elevape comes to mind as it has instant vapor on inhale.

 

[KeroZen]

I love how to the question "what is equivalent to the priciest desktop vape" the answer is "the two priciest portable vapes of course!"

Jokes apart, I don't own either but it seems like the Mighty hits like a desktop quantity wise, and the MiniVap is often cited as a reference for portable taste (with the FF, Lotus and Ascent not too far away)

Thank you for all the replies!

Do you mind the flame? There is only one vape in my sig. that can hang with Herbie.

Spoiler: Can you guess?

My lovely Daisy... of course.

there are many reasons, but the one I like is 100% convection vapor on demand.
