Default My vaporizer broke, can you help me fix it? (pics)


(the screw i talk about is not on right now, its in the box)

So my vape is broken. I am not sure what kind it is, or who makes it. When i bought it at the head shop (a long time ago) it just came in bubble wrap around the box, and handed me a hose they sold at the store.

There is a screw that goes into the end of the middle part. The middle part, which gets hot, had a peice of glass surrounding it. The glass got hot, and the hose was put on there. That screw holds in the peice of glass on the end of the heating thing. The peice of glass did not go all the way to the back of the vape ever. It just was a coulple inches long. The hose would fit right around the end of the glass.

The glass did not screw on, the but the screw when throw a hole in the top of the glass to hold it on.

Now for one reason or another, about a month ago, the glass broke. It cracked in a couple places. It just cracked one day. The vape wasnt left on too hot or too long i thought, it seemed like any other time we had vaped. (ive had this like a year now). it was during the middle of us vaping.

So us being good potheads, we waited for it to cool off, took the glass, and then used Epoxy to glue it back together. It was in 3 peices, very easy job to do. Thinking we had the problem fixed a couple days later when the epoxy set, we went back to vaping. But then a month later it happened again. The glass cracked.


(you can see the screw in the back now chilling on some glass.)

This time it cracked in all the same spots as before, and then a couple more peices fell off. It was harder to glue, but we did a pretty good job and really when we felt the peice after the glue job was done, it felt like it was in normal condition. Then we go use the vape again and while we are waiting for it to get hot the peice just dies. It cracked in many peices, like 8 or 9. At this point its beyond repair, and im looking for a new peice. The box still works and gets hot, i just need something new on the end.

Does anyone know where I can find this, maybe in my area (california) ?

you might get more responses if you had posted in the vaporizer section... http://420.marijuana.com/forumdisplay.php?f=141

I'm sure a mod will move it for you. Sorry I can't be of any help. There's a few people on here with a lot of experience with vapes so hopefully they'll be able to help you. Maybe once your thread gets moved to the correct spot, more people will see it and respond. Good luck and sorry about your broken vape. Hope you can fix it!

hmmm, check out dif box vapes online...eg- i have a 3g handsfree vaporwarez and the glass piece that goes over the heating element is a screw itself, so that one may not help but maybe another might

Looks similar to this vaporwarez model with a few differences.

Since the design is so similar the glass bulb may be the same, you should be able to find a replacement bulb for it somewhere from the vaporwarez company.

If you don't want to risk not getting the right piece you can always search the web for the model/company that made your vape.

For future reference, you probably don't want to use epoxy on anything you plan on heating and breathing out of, that stuff is full of all kinds of chemicals.
