Default Vaporizers & the Vaporwarez Cannon G3

Okay, first let me tell you my experience with smoking. I've have always been a fan of the waterpipe in the past. I actually just bought a new piece and she is lovely . Still one of my friends kept telling me about this thing called a vaporizer and I should get one. I am a very healthy and active user so the health hazards were worrying me. I jog nearly every day and my lungs were killing me! When he told me about it I had to go check it out. I stumbled up on these forums which highly recommended the Vaporwarez Cannon G3. I went on eBay and ordered it for 139.99 shipped from Warehouse Goods and I had taken the plunge into vaporizing.

The vape showed up at my door within 2 days and I was pretty excited to try this baby out. I took it out and heated it up. Everything seemed to work fine. I burnt the bowl 2 or three times. I had no clue how to work this thing and I must tell you it involves a certain technique. At this point I was baked just from burning the weed.

A few hits in, I was attaching the whip to the heating element and I must have tried to twist it and the heating element cover shattered. Oh...No. I was panicking at this point. I called Warehouse Goods and they told me they could ship me a replacement. I was a little relieved. I just spent $150 bucks on a vape that I hadn't really used yet. I got the replacement within the next week and am now vaping successfully and it is something incredible.

I must say a few words about vaporizing and the machine I got. Vaporizing from the Vaporwarez or any whip is something that you need to practice with. I'm assuming after seeing the learning curve that many users have tried to vape entirely incorrectly and were therefore left with a negative view of it. I must say that when you get the hang of it, yes it's that much more amazing. The high is much more intense for me and leaves me with no groggy, tired feeling afterwards. Total head high, relaxing. Also, I get (ABV) which can THEN be used for cooking. May I mention that I got high for two days with friends on multiple occasions off of maybe two "bowls" worth from my vape? Why not get a vaporizer?

It is true, the Volcano is better than these units because it's near foolproof and it's better for groups. The Vaporwares is less convenient to do with your friends and it ALLOWS you to vape incorrectly which could do a number of things- burn your herb or just not get you high. Once you get around the hurdles and see it for what it is, it's awesome. I'm in love with it.

Now, as far as my technique I've been using with the unit... This takes some time to see what works for you. First, I turn it on its side so the heating unit is level so my herb doesn't fall in. Then, I turn the dial to 1 'o' clock, just to the right of straight up. I then let it heat up for about 4-5 minutes. I then put just enough herb to have a solid layer covering the screen, no more. Then take a pen and GENTLY pack it down. Place the whip on the unit and leave for about 5 seconds to let the machine "pre-load". Then, exhale very deep and begin to inhale SLOWLY with the whip. Your inhale should be long, deep and slow. At the end of your inhale pull hard for a brief moment to clear the tube. When your lungs are full, exhale near a light source like a lamp. You should see a very faint vapor. This is not a smoke. At the temperature I have, I have yet to burn the herb with slow, steady pulls.

The common misconception is you should be blowing out huge clouds of smoke. This is not the case. If you are you could be burning your herb. Check the color. When vaped properly, it should be a roasted brown color. You will blow out a light vapor that can be seen over light.

You should be able to get 5-10 big hits from this pack.

I hope this helps some of you that are thinking about getting a vaporizer, the Vaporwarez G3 or someone who needed a little help with operating it CORRECTLY. Let's vape!

Excellent post VapeSD85!

I too was an avid water pipe fan, but after purchasing a Vapor Warez Cannon G3 myself (and from the same dealer I believe) I was hooked. I'd have to say for the past 2 months it has largely collected dust, but I find myself using it more than anything now. It's a worthy investment. I still smoke out of my bong, but only when the occasion calls.

Thanks for the review.

I use a phrase my sister said when I got my Buddha. A whip vape is like clutch vehicle compared to an automatic. Once you learn your vape you will be amazed at what you can get you vape to do.

Welcome to the world of Vaping.

Welcome to vaporizing. Glad you like it. It seems that most people who try it, like it.

Do you really mean "smoke" when you say that? Surely you mean huge clouds of vapor. And how much vapor you take in and how much you exhale depends on the person, the vape, the load, and the hit. Whether you exhale a lot of vapor or just a little, it's still easy to tell vapor from smoke. If you burn your load and get smoke, you'll know it on the inhale.

Yeah, you're right. I was referring to when you burn the bowl. In the beginning, I did this and thought I was blowing out vapor and I was clearly exhaling smoke because my herb was more of a blackened color. Probably easy to tell but at first I couldn't tell the difference.

Yeah, once you start getting big vapor hits, exhale a stream of vapor and think, 'wow, I didn't even feel that going down OR coming out', then you know vapor from smoke.

And in case you haven't discovered it already, you can turn the Vaporcannon upside down or sideways (or hang it from a hook) and it works just the same. Makes how you load the bowl less critical. That info's straight from Vaporwarez. The heater angle was designed for ergonomic reasons only (and the standard model, not the hands free).

Gotcha. Any recommendations for the size of the bowl pack and temperature? The methods I've mentioned are achieving a light vapor on exhale rather than a very thick cloud. Regardless, it has gotten me very baked. Just trying to perfect it.
