So i finally got the chance after 8 years of smoking to use a vaporizer. I must say im not really all that impressed with it. It was this high tech dealy that had a digital display for the temp, 300 dollar vaporizer i guess (bought by my ex dealer the coughing friend.) I can see the benefits from using it as far as health reasons go but after the hoopla i have heard about vaporizers flooring folks on this board i must say it definitely didnt live up to the expectations i had for it.

First of all i was never sure i was getting a hit, it seemed even if i pulled harder on the thing the same amount of vapors got in my mouth which because of the nature of vapor never seemed to be enough. I think i only got a nice decent hit once and that was when it was freshly packed. Also i noticed that the high was different. It was like my head felt really numb and my face too but the rest of my body wasn't sure if i was high. Weird thing to try to explain. I got the spins once or twice but other than that i didnt feel really high. And the whole time i was thinking i got the spins because of the plastic getting too hot on it cause when i took a hit i could taste a faint taste of plasticness, yuck. But i will say when you first pack that thing with primo bud it tastes pretty damn good. After awhile though the taste seemed to go away completely.

All in all i wasnt too big of a fan. I think the trouble was in how it was being used. We were passing it around like a bowl and i think that if it was something i could use by myself, like pack it up and take it to the dome then i would definitely have been floored by it. But it seemed by passing it around that the effects were incredibly lessened, not to mention people keep forgetting to pass the thing and you lose a lot of vapors. I can say that my chest felt no hmm whats the word im looking for...strain, yeah strain at all from it and i was pleased by that. I can say if i got one id probably have a good time with it and use it often simply to cut down on the heavy lung feeling i normally have. Then again id never dream of spending 300 bucks on something to smoke with, thats just a waste to me. But yeah, i dont know if im giving advice here or what but my first and second and third vaporizer experiences have been different to the norm of smoking out of my chillum but wholely unsatisfying compared to what i was expecting. I think i was expecting the thing to be like a vapor version of a gravity bong for some reason and it definitely isnt.

So yeah thats my vaporirzer story.
