Recommended Vaporizers

May 3rd, 2009 admin Posted in Uncategorized No Comments »

The staff at BargainVaporizers.com has tried and tested many different types of vaporizers. Some are definitely better than others, so we wanted to share what we think are the best three vaporizers currently available.

Best Portable Vaporizer

Vapor Genie Portable Vaporizer

Vapor Genie Portable Vaporizer

Powered by a basic butane cigarette lighter, the VaporGenie tops our list for Best Portable Vaporizer. Hand constructed out of gorgeous hardwoods, the Vapor Genie uses an innovative ceramic filter to transform the flame from the lighter into the perfect vaporization temperature heat. Simple to use, portable and inexpensive, the VaporGenie is our #1 choice for a portable vaporizer.

Cost: ~$60.00

Best Electric Vaporizers

Electric vaporizers come in two flavors: Passive or Active. Active vaporizers have a small fan built in that blows hot air over your herb, vaporizing it. The warm vapor is then pushed through a tube directly into a mouthpiece or into a vapor balloon or bag, which can then be inhaled from. Passive vaporizers lack a fan and depend on the user to create air suction to carry heat over the herb.

Since there are big differences between Passive and Active vaporizers, we will rate them separately.

Best Active Electric Vaporizer

Volcano Vaporizer

Volcano Vaporizer

The undisputed champ when it comes to fan-powered electric vaporizers has to be the famous Volcano Vaporizer. Built on a conical metal base, the Volcano Vaporizer is the vaporizer almost everyone is familiar with. It works fantastically and looks great.

The only downside to the Volcano is that it is expensive. The original Classic Volcano Vaporizer with dial controls sells for around $550. The more modern Volcano Digit Vaporizer with LED display goes for nearly $700.

Best Passive Electric Vaporizer

VaporTower Vaporizer

VaporTower Vaporizer

Our two favorite passive electric vaporizers are the VaporTower (approx $199) and VaporBox (approx $140, $169 for Deluxe Handsfree version) vaporizers.

Both units feature a gorgeous wooden chassis and use high-quality ceramic heating elements. To use them, the user puts their ground herb into a glass "bowl" at one end of the 3 foot "whip"-a vinyl tube attached to a glass mouthpiece. The bowl end is inserted into the preheated vaporizer, and the user puts his mouth on the mouthpiece and inhales slowly. The user's suction draws cool air into the vaporizer, which flow over the ceramic heating element and instantly heats to the correct temperature so it can then pass over the herb, through the tube, and into the user.

Both the VaporTower and VaporBox vaporizer's wooden bodies are available in several stained natural finishes. We personally prefer the raw natural model, but that's just us :)

Where to buy the VaporTower or VaporBox

Once again, both of these vaporizers are available from VaporStore.
