Why do you feel the heatgun should be at the bottom at the list? I use mine regularly (my only vape that I own) and I enjoy it a lot!

As for my list I only own the heatgun (good purchase for me, thanks FC!) and I wil own the Gn0me Slider soon too, for on the road. Which also seems to be getting positive listings here :)

I'm sorry, I meant a non digital heat gun. If I had a digital heat gun then I would get rid of the volcano and replace it with that... Do you have pics of your heatgun setup?

BEST - So far the NO2. Not the best vapor or flavor, and annoying to repack, and small bowl, but ROCK SOLID RELIABILITY. Daily driver I could seriously depend on for several years straight. Been through lots of trying times and crazy situations with my NO2. It always came through. Even when a puppy tried his damndest to eat the battery. Knocked it over 200+ times, threw it by accident, even dropped in water, it won't stop vaping!

WORST - Iolite. Fuck, I wanted to like it, but it honestly worked MAYBE 20% of the time for me. Lots of time wasting butane, wasting money and time finding butane, I honestly can't say anything good about it. I hated it the whole time I had it.

GPEN gets a special mention for being a rebranded ecig. I never owned one but a lot of my friends owned them. Well I guess I have a lot of friends who just don't like to research things before they buy them... they always say I'm the only one that researches stuff before I buy them. So why are they surprised when I always have better stuff? But I digress... :lol:

Hey there all CERA lovers,this is my third post on FC an counting..

First i want to tell you that i'm NOT here to talk bad/down on CERA or Cloud or any other Vape.I only stated what was MY opinion.
Sorry if i "hurt" anyone here at FC with my post,not intended at all,okey.

I can tell you that when i got my Plenty after two days my Plenty sticker that sists on the front of the vape fell off..glued it back and that's all the problem i've had so far.
The HerbalAire 2.1 that my friend bought from me,not one singel problem afgter now nearly two years.BOTH Plenty AND HA also came with free Worldwide shipping..not bad at all.

I just have a gut feeling that many Vaporist like us are beeing "betatesters"even AFTER the companys have started to sell their products.

Like if i living in Asia would by a Vape and it would mailfunction after a while i have to send it back and that takes around 10-12 days,okey.Repair the item let us say another 10-12 days,then the shipping it back here + 10-12 days..That's nearly a month without my trusted Vape..So MY take on this is:

I rather buy my stuff from a long time trusted Company that offers this:

3 Year Warranty
German Design
Quality Construction
American Service

FREE Shipping Worldwide

All orders over $25

FREE Next Day Air Shipping

All orders over $349 ....OR statment like this from Frank Fusch who are the inventor or Aromed:

"we as a patients’ initiative wanted to construct a device that lasts not only the 2 years warranty span, but can be used for a lifetime. Never doubt to ask us about malfunctions (if any...), we will try to take care. Still units from the first production range are working to the satisfaction of their users"

I put my money in the company i trust..so far.And i guess the CERA people do the same.And i can tell you that the strickt laws in Germany building something like above doesn't come cheap.A lot of diffrent laws and regulations has to be meet BEFORE you can be ready to start selling it online.

I do NOT want to start any "downtalk" regarding what is best and not,i have my wiev,you have yours,no problem at from my side of the monitor/keyboard..OKEY.

So once again Asia says:Love u all,no matter what vape you choose..Happy Vaping to all of you FC members.

Best-pax by ploom

very sturdy and simple to use. I used to have a lot of paranoid cleaning issues at first but after 8 months together we finally get along fine. At first I would clean religiously yet end up with the temp light issue very soon. But now I've learned the basics like, where exactly to check if it needs to be cleaned, where exactly the sticking occurs, when the unit has cooled down enough to let the mp down. When it is too cold to leave it the car overnight lolol now i seldom clean with iso. Just quick visual inspection then feel with a finger to check the sliding ring. And a little water and scrape and voila! Good for another couple days. My iso cleaning regimen has diminished to a monthly cycle. You can even soak the mp in running hot water. Overall I love this baby because of the design, function, practicality and build quality. I know some people hate the pax cuz it takes a lot of product and that is to me the only valid issue with it. But considering it still cut my consumption in half from when I rolled blunts...it's a non issue for me. For a few years I reached a point where I was using 4 grams a day with ease. Now it's much harder to vape that much all in a day. I honestly hated this thing when I first got it because I never thought I'd end up learning how to get around the temp light issue.

Worst- vb 2.0

Hated it. Hated the design but didn't care enough to not buy it just cuz of that. The packaging and price suggested I was buying a high end piece. It performed very weakly. Maybe it was because of the convection heavy set up but I just couldn't get around the fact that after I took a hit. Another hit would literally have to wait a minute otherwise I'd get no visible vapor on the second hit. As you can tell, this unit was not only not good for fast use, but it was incompatible with respect to sharing. The stir cap broke like the second day. And the best response I received from vb was that it would be covered under warranty. (Maybe its just me but that wasn't exactly a great answer seeing how easily it broke. Aren't warranties for unexpected irregular issues like faulty components, battery issue etc. I'd bet that all the units received the exact same stir cap and beta testing would undoubtedly prove easily how weak they were). The oil attachment and pipe was a gimmick at best. worked horribly as intended(managed to mcguyver my way to a session with oil). It's sad becuz the few hits I did take off of it were very tasty and aromatic. But I just can't have a portable that isn't all that fast or portable, the chamber only held like .2 max and wasn't shareable or able to provide a reasonably quick session to even a single user. The experience definitely factored into my decision to stay far away from the pinnacle. And to also stay away from the shop that sold that to me describing it to me totally different from how it actually ended up functioning.

Best: Da Buddha. Really love this "magic" thing. Only difference I noticed with SSV was that I have to put more herbs and stir more to get everything vaporized. Great big dense hits with little herbs. You need to achieve some technique so this one makes the deal if you are not vaping with friends.

Party´s best: Volcano. No machine ever created can generate such quantity of "Highness" in so little time so easily. Tough easy to use and powerful only downside that if you want a powerful vapor/air ratio with the best taste you HAVE to fill the chamber completely with well grinded herbs and that´s so much material and so much vapor.

Worst: My first vape was a "Bulb" conduction cheap piece of crap so I don´t even consider it a vape. The most dissapointed I have been with a vape was with the MFLB. Everyone talked wonders about it and I didn´t get it.

I like your post and I believe your experience report, but have to say that although Germany is one of the top nations when it comes to engineering, their products are not always the most reliable. Clever, yes. Reliable, not necessarily.

If you've ever owned a German car and been stuck with the repair bills, you might be looking elsewhere soon. It has happened to me more than once. Hitler had a lot of headaches from his Wunderwaffen also.

Now if the Japanese would design a vape ... things might get interesting!

Best: NO2; I love my E Nano but the NO2 has seniority

Worst: Dragon Lite; my friend's actually worked well but mine was too hot. Got it for $22 and used it on the ski lift a couple times, it served its purpose.

@t-dub, @lwien, @CentiZen, and @Amazingkaddycap: I just deleted 8 posts by you four because they were off-topic and some of them were inappropriate. We don't have a rule against discussing another member's behaviour but you have all been around long enough to know that once that discussion starts it's time to stop posting. If someone is misbehaving, just report it. If it's not behaviour that breaks the rules, just ignore it.

Got a question, Paka. If someone states something that is just not true, by any stretch of the imagination, are you suggesting that rather than confront the person who made that statement, that we should report it instead? Just trying to get a clarification on this for all involved.

(Of course, being that I man one of the main Bull Shit Ground Radar systems here at FC, this could potentially put me out of business. ;) )

The last thing I want to do is switch off your BSGR. No, I am saying that you need to be careful about how you challenge the BS.

See what I did there? The word "confront" implies a potentially undesirable response, while "challenge" is what we encourage.

Guess I'll just have to take it one confrontation, er...............challenge at a time. Not quite sure how to separate the two, but I'll give it a shot.

Best: Weed: Arizer Solo
Oil: Omicron (Persei is great, but Omicron more refined if Persei power isn't needed)
Portable Weed: Da Vinci (the Solo is "portable" but I use it more at home; Da Vinci is easier to use when out).

Worst: Plug In: Vaporite Twin (it works OK and was cheap but it's just OK)
Portable: MFLB fake (I got "taken")
Palm 2.0 (kind of nifty actually but batteries not strong enough, air flow issues)
Oil: Various cheap pens but mostly problem is the cartridges. Worst for me is Bud Sapphire although they are good when they work and don't leak but i've had issues.

IMO the Arizer Solo is fantastic and I love the Omicron line of stuff. It really depends on the substance and the circumstances of use.

Best: Im stuck between the Pax and LSV. Haven't had a chance to really test my LSV yet, but the Pax has always been there for me :') <3

Worst: definitely gotta say the box vaporizer I got from my local HS. It worked for like a week and then the unit just shut down. But on the other hand it got me into vaping when it did work.... Heck how could I hate it
