Now that looks more like the one I owned.
Here's my very first vape, bought it new at a music festival out of curiosity circa 1996.
Strictly conduction heating--we're talking high technology here.
Marked down for the last day of the festival.
It's made of bakelite, and has no brand name.
The temperature is set with no adjustment.
Collector's item?
I still have it anyways...
Basically it's a small electric frying pan.
It works pretty good with fluffy hashish, that's about it
