My dry herb vaporizer, used to spend 0.3-0.5g on a spliff joint and now I'm using 0.05-0.15g per bowl while getting great effects, flavour, and level of convenience, and ofc.. I stopped combusting, so it's better for my health too. Returned it's value after few weeks tops.
You have recommendations on one? I've been considering it.
Depends on your usage, tolerance and wishes. The devices that I usually recommend to beginners are Xmax v3 pro, airvape legacy pro, xvape Cheeh & Chong's Mambo, mighty/crafty, TM2 or desktop ball vape if you have high tolerance. All of these (except ball vapes) are electric portable vapes, but you have butane based vapes available too like the dynavap and anvil, but it's not my field XD.
Check our [email protected] (currently offline) and [email protected]. also fuckcombustion.com is an awesome forum about this field.
Some things to consider
For battery powered:
Tinymight 2 is my current favorite vape for its size, speed, power, ecosystem. I can use it with my water pipe and rip it like a bong, or hit it dry through a j hook, etc. There is a very small learning curve.
Mighty+ is a good session vape that is consistent and reliable. There is no learning curve. You need to be ready to commit to 3 minute session of slowly sipping on it. It is a great vape as a session vape, but if you're looking to take a hit or two do stuff for a few hours and repeat, TM2 all the way. It's large, but that's because it has 2 batteries and a screen. The crafty+ is the little sibling with one battery, no screen.
POTV Xmax v3 is okay for the price point, but if you spend a little more, you can get a better class vape. This sits in my drawer, but I might take it out for biking because i don't care if it breaks.
Dynavap is worth a mention as a cheap analog vape that can make huge clouds. There is also a huge ecosystem for it, and it's interoperable with some other vapes ecosystems.

Xmax V3 pro
I did a bit of research and came to a similar "they will pay for themselves" so I got a higher end (afaik) device called a Mighty. It is fantastic, still going strong years later. Heats up quickly, smooth pulls from it, battery life has gone down a little but still plenty to not be deskbound.
Yeah that's a classic one, fyi there's a whole world of vapes that gives a different experience :) keep on vaping ✌️
I had a PAX when they first came out and never really got the chance to figure out how to use it. I could never find the right temp and it felt like i was going through the bud too fast. I suppose i just didn't know how to use it.
I didn't have it very long because, unfortunately, it was confiscated by the authorities and i never got another one.
I need to give it another try.
First, sorry to hear that. Most people fall to those headshop vapes, which IMO that includes the pax. It uses old tech that doesn't suit to moderate-heavy users.
Try to pack the bowl pretty tight, and let you pax heat back up between draws, I guess around 30 secs.
