How best to use a vaporizer pipe

With traditional cigarettes becoming less and less popular, more and more youngsters are beginning to use different tools with which to enjoy their tobacco.  Vaporizers (like the popular Arizer Extreme-Q) are becoming more and more common.  How easy are they to use though?  This guide should help.

Essentially, vaporizers work in a similar manner to bongs, but on a much smaller scale.  First, you simply place the correct amount of tobacco (a personal preference rather than a specific amount) into the chamber of the pipe and plug in the vaporizer.

When it is put to work, the pipe will begin to fill up with a smoky (and yet not dense) fog.  Once the chamber itself is full of the vapour, you can turn the pipe off, as leaving it on may cause the tobacco to burn, and that would not be pleasant for anyone.

Once the pipe has reached this stage, it is now safe to be used, so you can inhale the tobacco vapour through the mouthpiece and relax.  Once you have had enough, you can safely discard the tobacco itself.  You will not be able to re-use it, and any attempts to do so will simply result in it burning and leading to the creation of genuine smoke.  If you want that, then it might well be easier to go back to conventional cigarettes!

As with all receptacles that are used for inhaling, it is important that you remember to clean your vaporizer pipe after each use.  Grime, dirt and resin will naturally build up over time if you do not maintain it, leading to some seriously unpleasant inhalations!

Legally high

Legal highs are readily available both by mail order and over the internet, and there is a huge and fascinating range of natural plant products to choose from. Perusing what is on offer can actually become a great hobby once you get into it, and many people are attracted to the associations with medieval herbalism and a return to an older, more respectful relationship with nature that we seem to have thrown out with the dishwater recently.

You do not need to be a health fanatic or expert to know these days that smoking cigarettes and drinking alcohol can have serious health implications, and it is great to know that the alternative of the legal high is available in a myriad of forms and available at very reasonable prices over the internet. There is also a vast range of accessories available online to turn this into an absorbing and interesting hobby as well as a simple way to chill out.

Bongs, for example, are ancient pieces of equipment that have been used in the Far East for millennia to heat plant products and filter the smoke through water before delivering the active ingredients to the smoker. Modern bongs are constructed from glass because it is more hygienic than the traditional bamboo or wood, but the principle is just the same.

Vaporisers, for example the popular Vaporstar, are highly esteemed because they eliminate the smoke altogether, merely heating the plant materials before they ignite and then drawing off the vapour.

Smoking gifts, hip flasks, bubble sacks and all manner of glass bong accessories are readily available on the internet, and can make great smoking gifts for like-minded friends.

Legal highs and vaporizers

People have always used a range of different drugs to help them relax and chill out.  But as more people realise that alcohol and tobacco are bad for their health, they are increasingly turning to other legal options that are much safer.

Legal plant products, for instance, are increasingly available on the internet, along with all the various types of specialised equipment that is needed to smoke them, such as bongs and stash trays.

Connoisseurs tend to go for vaporisers, such as the popular Vaporstar, because they do not involve creating any smoke from burning the plant materials.  Smoke typically contains carcinogens that can seriously damage one’s health unless it is either effectively filtered or eliminated from the process.

Vaporisers use a system of valves to control the levels of vapour delivered to the user from the plant materials.  They are actually used in aromatherapy treatments, so they are perfectly safe.

There are also more sophisticated vaporisers available which use a stream of hot air controlled by several valves.  This is used to heat the essential oils placed in the base unit.

Iolite Vaporisers

Some experts recommend a Iolite or iolite vaporiser as the ideal alternative to consuming smoke from herbal highs, without having to resort to using nicotine and tobacco.  The vaporiser heats the substance being consumed to a sufficient temperature that allows the toxic substances of the herb to be filtered so that the smoker only inhales the less harmful vapours emitted by the herb being smoked.

Unlike the volcano vaporiser, the Iolite is portable and it can be carried in the pocket or handbag.  Iolite vaporisers are also a lot cheaper than volcano vaporisers.  They operate by using butane as a heat source and a chamber within the vaporiser filters the herbal or aromatic product, butane is the same gas used to fuel lighters.  Once the gadget has achieved the heat needed for it to work a light will come on and then you know that the Iolite vaporiser is ready to use.

The manufacturers recommend that the vapours the Iolite vaporiser emits should be inhaled in a similar fashion to conventional pipe smoke, slowly.  The casing of the vaporiser does sometimes get hot but this shows that the catalytic heater inside the body of the Iolite is working efficiently.  The gadget also takes a couple of seconds to expel air after it has been switched off which is perfectly normal.

Eclipse Vaporizers

Coming out of the new range of vaporizers that are growing in popularity in the market is a new form of the product.

The Eclipse Vape-20 Vaporizer is a full hand held machine that can be used to vaporize a number of different chemicals, including essential oils and refined herbal concentrates. The Eclipse Vape-2O Vaporizer is made from solid aluminium and has a reaction chamber in which the chemicals are turned to vapour and then inhaled by the user.

The device is durable, making it great for first time users or the perfect attraction piece at a party. Also available are a range of detachable and disposable glass vials, which can be used in the reaction chamber.

Vaporizers have risen in popularity in recent years, due to the range of models available, which include portable varieties. There are also obvious health benefits when used as an alternative to smoking. The vaporizer works by heating the herbs to produce a vapour, rather than burning them with or without tobacco, which releases a number of harmful carcinogens when they are smoked in a roll up.

There is now a range of digital vaporizers, such as the volcano vaporizer, which can be used to deliver a very precise amount of vapour to users. Volcano vaporizers are among the most popular currently on the market, with volcano vaporizer bags often being passed around in select coffee shops in Amsterdam.

Recommended vaporizers

For people opting for a healthier way of smoking legal highs, vaporizers are the preferred option. Vaporizers involve inhaling the vapours rather than the smoke.

Iolite is a known, trusted and much praised supplier of these types of vaporizers, producing a number of models that are easy to use and very portable.

Vaporizers are a recommended way to use legal highs as they reduce the risk associated with smoking and are believed to be beneficial to your health when the herbs are inhaled in this way.

The Iolite Original Vaporizer is an economical model and is powered by butane, which means that you do not need electricity to run the machine, making it more economical to run. This latest version has a better ignition system than previous models, improved reliability and is a development from the Iolite handheld vaporiser, which is a highly popular portable version.

Once you have purchased your Iolite there are a number of accessories that can be bought to improve it, such as the Iolite handtool and Iolite herb chamber.

A Review of the Plenty Vaporizer

The Plenty Vaporizer is made by Storz & Bickel, manufacturers of the popular Volcano vaporizer. The Plenty is described by the manufacturers as a “hand held” vaporizer, which suggests it could give portable, lightweight vaporizers a run for their money.

Storz & Bickel have always looked for ways to give their customers a pure herbal high. This philosophy is behind the success of the Volcano model. The Storz & Bickel Plenty vaporizer has a coil made of stainless steel which is joined to the mouthpiece and helps to cool the vapour as the user draws on it. The Plenty has a regulator which guards against overheating, and if you forget to turn it off when you are finished inhaling, then it will shut itself down.

The varied characteristics of herbs mean that not all mixtures need the same intensity of heat. With the Plenty, the temperature is controlled by the user within the range of 130 to 202 degrees Celsius with the help of an analogue thermometer.

The Plenty is lightweight but it is not portable. It plugs into an electricity outlet, so it may not be winning over customers from the battery and butane powered vaporizers.

Storz & Bickel

Happy vaporiser fans are no doubt familiar with the company which is renowned for making some of the best products on today’s market.  Storz & Bickel was begun in 1996 by Markus Storz, who developed and patented the volcano inhaler.  He continued to patent other items that included the hot air extraction inhaler.  By 2000 he was selling his inventions under the company name of Vapormed Inhalatoren until his first customer, Jurgen Bickel came along.

By 2002, Storz and Bickel were equal partners as they quickly began to expand their company. By 2004 the two had opened a store in Germany and in 2005 they began a business in Oakland, California under the name of Storz & Bickel America, Inc. where customers had access to repair services as well as efficient sales.

While they continued to expand with the opening of additional businesses, the pair were constantly improving the Volcano vaporisation system, which lead to the development of the volcano vaporiser easy valve in 2007.  They also developed a volcano digit, which is the company’s hot air generator.  Sales for the solid valve and the volcano classic quickly surpassed the fifty thousand mark.  The company continues to grow today, with more than 35 employees in various locations.

Users of their products can easily order a variety of paraphernalia online with their simple and easy to use webpage.  Here you will find items such as the Plenty Vaporizer, the Volcano Classic and the Volcano Digit, as well as the hot air generator, a selection of values, starter kits and replacement kits.
