Hi, I am currently in love with vaporizers and I have been using a lightbulb for a vape, I was planning on building a soldering iron vaporizer like this one:


Then I learned the difference between conduction vaporizers and convection vaporizers, then I planned to invest on a convection, I found simple vapes like in the picture" for around 30 dollars


I am kinda of pushing back on this idea beacuse it doesn't seem like it would get the job done like the higher end vapes. I found a fuji vaporizer"aka volcano knock off"

I researched it and read upon that the components some times melts and on the other hand I read that its a good vape and lasts and I thought about it and it seems to me the plastic most likely to melt is the value kit, due to the fat that the hot air is going past the value kit and the hot air is produced inside it and pushed against the value kit since it seems that they made with cheap plastic may I install a volcano value kit since fuji made there vape almost identical, they probably have the same dimensions, this is the volcano value starter kit, The fuji is priced at 130 and the value kit is around 100.


Then my next option is to buy higher ends vaporizers at a wholesale price from wholesale herbal vaporizers legal bud - wholesale herbal vaporizer

I was deciding between the Vapolution Vaporizer priced at 89.99, I love it due to its size

The Herbal aire priced at 139.99 I love it for its size and mini volcano style


And the V-tower Extreme, price at 185.99 I love it due to its many options of vaping.

The problem in buying wholesale prices is that I need a federal tax ID and the way to get one is to have a smoke shop, My question is does the 30 dollar vape due a good anywhere near the higher up vapes, the home made vape with a soldering iron due a better job than the vape, will the fuji vaporizer idea work and what is a good option to buy one of those three listed above? I am very crafty and into electrics so I tend to go down the DIY road but the option for that is the soldering iron vape but I heard it is just as good as a light bulb. Is there any more DIY options?

Thank you

Update on the fuji vaporizer, I found more parts for the volcano on this site Volcano Vaporizer Accessories @ GotVape.com
And
Volcano Parts

Maybe I can buy the parts that feel and look cheap instead of dishing out 130, and plus they have other parts available.

I would go with the bottom three vapes over the top 2 any day of the week.

With those kind of Chinese knock-off vapes that you mentioned in the beginning, you have 3 issues. One, is typically, they don't come with any kind of warranty. Two, is that typically, they are not built very well and the first thing to go is the temp controller, and they begin to fluctuate like crazy. And three and probably more important than anything else is not knowing what kind of toxic materials are in the vapor path. The Chinese had no problems exporting baby toys that were painted with lead based paint. I have no reason not to believe that they wouldn't do the same thing with these knockoffs, not only in paint, but things like lead solder in the vapor path, toxic glue, etc etc etc.
I'm not saying that they have these issues, but I sure as hell have heard of a few of these types of vapes with these issues, and I sure wouldn't want to put my health at risk, especially being that one of the reasons for vaping in the first place is for better health. Just my .02c.

I love my Vapolution, it works killer out and about or in the confines of my house. My friends have the V-Tower and it works great but I've never tried the Herbal-Aire. I do have friends who opted for cheap and got the Jap-crap Hot Box style and it was junk. It felt like it was going to fall apart any minute and after a month of moderate use (2 hrs. a night) the heating element committed "Hara-kiri"

Japanese? I've only heard of Chinese knock-offs.

Look again at the check out form. For shipping address you can choose "Residential" or "Commercial". By checking "Residential" I would assume you don't need the Federal Tax ID.

Just spend $140 and get a vaporwarez vape...I've had mine going on two years, and never have had an issue, nor has anyone else I know with the same vape. Its money well-spent, and while there may be "better" vapes out there, you won't find a better value for your dollar, IMO. It LOOKS like the first vape pictured, but is much higher quality than the knock-offs. Mine has had pretty much, "all day, every day" useage in the two years or so I've had it, os its not like its been babied or anything. Its even taken some (*short* as in 3 ft or less probably) falls onto carpeted floors and whatnot, with no appearent issues.

I'd agree with lwien. Stay away from the Fuji and the cheap Chinese boxes. The Vapo, herbalAire, and Extreme are solid choices, but the latter two are very different from the Vapolution, which is a home/portable combo vape. Nice all glass vapor path, but hit size is limited by the narrow bowl and efficient loading can be difficult due to the same narrow bowl and lack of a screen. The Extreme and herbalAire are the two best choices if you want both bag delivery and whip hits. The herbalAire is the safer choice-no digital or glass to fail or break, while the Extreme will deliver better whip hits if you pack the elbow connector instead of the bowl.

I would not build a DIY soldering iron vape if you can afford any of the above.

I have two PD's and I've been thinking about possibly selling one of them. But man, it's really hard to part with one of 'em, even when you have two.
