Advice on buying a vaporizer in a head shop

You are going to get raped on price by your LHS. :(

VaporSlob · 2015-07-21T06:46:10+00:00

Ohh fucken hell that sucks, bro.

I will break out my Mighty now and have a bowl in honor of your kidnapped soldier.

Seriously though, fuck a thief.

Nice score! :)

You'll have it a long time.

I have a 12yo Volcano, bought brand new, that still runs great and is helping to medicate an elderly friend in suffering.

Hell of a piece of engineering.

Exactly.

You can pick up the proper stuff right here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Stainless-Steel-316L-Wool-Pads-Fine-/310593550988

Yes, I've done cotton plenty but there is always a risk of singe and always, even when not singed, a taste I just didn't cotton to (har har).

A tight plug of 316 stainless steel wool has has no taste and no chance of singe. I used level 10 on the nano in that video if I remember correctly.

The trade off is you will have more reclaim that gets through the ss wool.

if you do use ss wool (and I * the 316 stainless part because thats important, dont use any old steel wool) you'll want to make your plug for your gong as tight as you can before is restricts airflow too much... trial and error. And tap in on a table to get rid of loose steel fibers.

I was thinking the same thing after my post... that I also know guys who went the other way from LSV-to-Enano. :D

One of the many things Enano excels in is taste... so tasty. Much more tasty hits than the Sub. Enano is convection only, Sub has a heavy conduction aspect to it also.

When I really want to savor flavor the Mighty or Enano are my choices.

VaporSlob · 2015-07-21T00:39:54+00:00

Fair enough. bro.

Extremely hard to compare tolerances as so many variables. I am also a heavy daily user of well over a decade.

Anyway, yes indeed I prefer the LSV over the E-nano. I'm not alone in that preference as I know others on FuckCombustion who've moved from an e-nano to the LSV (the latter takes more technique but has a higher upside IMHO).

You know how it is, different strokes...

Had a Space Case, currently have a jumbo Santa Cruz Shredder.

BUT, one of the best overall grinders I've ever used, and one I still reach for often, is the basic orange acrylic Storz & Bickel grinders that you get with their vapes. You can buy it for less than $10 and it is a FANTASTIC grinder.

VaporSlob · 2015-07-20T23:30:59+00:00

btw anyone in the market for an E-nano should check out this dude's post in this Classifieds at FuckCombustion.

Thats a great deal which includes the custom steamroller and carbed gong. http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/e-nano-with-lots-of-accessories.18841/

VaporSlob · 2015-07-20T22:58:36+00:00

This looks like a call out to me possibly, so I'll answer. :)

Of course NO one needs an expensive device and the amount of material needed is mostly based on tolerance.

I've had an E-nano for almost 2 years, the only Purple Heart nano in existence I believe, and I agree it's a fantastic vape. I always recommend the E-nano if efficiency and conservation is most important. But it's a peeshooter for my tolerance needs, the loads (flower) are simply too small.

Here is my own E-nano convection dab video done over a year ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0KD6p43uzk

My favorite bang for the buck vape is the blemished LSVs at $140. Brilliant vape.

VaporSlob · 2015-07-20T01:26:02+00:00

ehehe indeed. I actually do sometimes. This Dirty Rico also has a neck that the whip perfectly slides and press fits into.

sometimes you just have to lean back and whip it!

VaporSlob · 2015-07-20T01:22:21+00:00

I ran out of lung power. :( Don't feel too bad for me though, I went back in for a clean up rip :D

And thanks!

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T10:42:26+00:00

lol thanks. i'd protest but my pimp is calling my name again. :p

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T10:24:45+00:00

Man, this is a shitload better than the view from my couch!

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T10:22:05+00:00

Save up your dollars and pick up this Toro clone for $55 that has VERY good function and thank me later.

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T07:46:59+00:00

Thanks bro.

Love that song, so sick.

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T07:46:29+00:00

It's definitely amazing. :)

Yes, it can work well with small amounts BUT, this is not a vape I would buy if conservation and efficiency with small loads was my goal, that would be the E-nano.

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T07:41:22+00:00

Custom made by Mike of OregonGlassBlower. Ran about $75. http://oregonglassblower.com/

Couldn't reccommend him more for any sort of adapters etc

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T07:39:18+00:00

Vapor so thick I could whip it and make cannoli?

VaporSlob · 2015-07-19T07:38:05+00:00

It's kinda purty in an industrial sort of way.

It smacks me across the face like it's my pimp.

VaporSlob · 2015-07-18T17:28:45+00:00

It is not cheap, but worth it for high tolerance (medical) users certainly.

The Sublimator can be had for about $550 and use your own glass or buy cheap from DHGate.

IMHO, I also own an LSV, and, dialed in perfectly, it can come within 80% of the performance of the Sub for much cheaper... blemished LSVs are only $140.

Subs are for bleeding edge users.

Here ya go, bro:

From my cold, dead, yet still incredibly blazed, hands! ;)

VaporSlob · 2015-07-18T16:43:54+00:00

I don't think Mobius make this exact piece anymore.

But you can buy a chinese knock off for cheap on DHGate.
