my brother had an iolite and would NEVER recommend it. he paid 200 for it and it like never worked. we live at 1 mile elevation, so that was probably a factor. he was able to use it like once or twice down in the city but never while biking or up by our house, which was a huge bummer.

do you know what temp hot boxes work at? since they are not adjustable, does quality of vapor suffer? or does adjusting the temp not play a huge role...

actually the hotboxs in the 150 dollar range have temperature control. Apparently you can get different types of highs depending on the temperature you vaporize it at.

I will try and find a link.

i have a vape genie and it works great once you learn the proper amount of pull and lighter it takes to get a good vape hit. after 2 bowls, 10 hit a piece, i got it down easily.

its nice cause it doesnt run on batteries or electricity. its my go to piece for sneak a tokes since its the smallness of a pipe, but without the resin or weed smells when it isnt packed. and vape smells more like popcorn when u hit it, not smoke. good stealth piece.

This. Used correctly between the two batteries and two people, you will get a very good high. This is my top pick for a portable vape. The Easy Vape (real one 150-200 dollars, not the dangerous Chinese knockoffs) is ideal for a vaporizer to me. With the adapter, you can vape in your car, or anywhere else indoors and not be caught. I use my neighbor's at least once per week with them and between 3 people, this thing took about .1g to get us all nicely lifted. Highly recommended vape.

room mate had a bag volcano vap. for the first month or so of him smoking every day it didnt smell much. But seriously after that it smelt way worse than if he would of just smoked reg. He got caught twice (in the dorms) just from the smell of the vap.

vaporizers are real tight, and worth the money if you have it.  very clean way to smoke, and the high is real good.  it really condenses the THC, so you can get real baked, and its more of a body high.

that would be an iolite

its worth like 150 or 200 or something

he got ripped the fuck off


but most people say the MFLB is better


and on the note of the MFLB not getting you high, its a 90% chance your using it wrong and 10% chance your tolerance is high as fuck

everyone i have let use my mflb who has a low tolerance (like smokes a few times a week) gets high as fuck


vap highs are also different from smoke highs unless high temps are reached to release all the CBN/CBD goodness

I used my iolite on top of the mountain every single day this summer. And thats over 2000m elevation. Butane has trouble igniting above 1600m but if you shield it and light in a backpack or your coat it works fine. Im puffing on it now and ripped as shit haha.

Obviously not as good as a volcano or the equivalent, but the best portable vape on the market IMO. The vapir is a piece of junk, never use mine anymore.

Some real quality right here, shit fucks you up, only downside is if you dont inhale hard enough the bowl will ignite so... But really using this thing my motto is "Point one equals done"

I bought my first one about 7 months ago, and immediately fell in love with it. Gets you ripped..anywhere. Very nice for chillin in my room, surfing newschoolers, on the hill... But one day my iolite wouldn't let me fill it up with any more butane (even though it was out)..so I took it back to the headshop.
Luckily the owner was mad blazed, and figured it was a good idea to give me a new one for free because he felt so bad about it breaking...My second one just recently broke, the same exact way. I didn't do anything to cause this, it just happened.

If the Iolite didn't break every couple months, it would be suchhhh a sick vape...

because there's no way i'm going to get another free iolite from this guy..i'm thinking about getting the MFLB (portable vapes are soo fucking convenient, I have glass for other occasions). Would you guys recommend it? I'm willing to drop another $100 to be able to vape anywhere

definitely get an mflb

most people on fuckcombustion.com (the newschoolers of vaping) claim they like the mflb lots more than the iolite and i love mine

also check out that site and maybe they know whats going wrong with your iolites, i know ive heard that low quality butane can fuck them up so maybe thats it? make a tread or search around, if its happened twice im sure its happened to other people

ive seen bongs that the bowl fits a heat gun. so you use a heat gun on whatever setting and you vaporize and water filter the vapors.

seems cheap if u already have a bong.

dude volcano's are the shit. i've only been able to hit one once but it was amazing. i wouldn't cheap out on one cuz they'll last for a looong time, and its also the healthiest way to smoke dope amirite? if your gonna buy one, might as well buy i good one.

you can take the bowl off most larger bongs leaving the stem, fill up the volcano bag, and then put the bag on the bong.


But really, the volcano is much more social, because you can just throw the bag around to everybody, while most others you have to worry about the whip. plus you really cant beat the super solid german craftsmanship.
