I'd say only if you smoke at least 1/4oz. per week.

volcano also saves you money in the long run... your weed just lasts longer and gets you higher. The poster who said it's a different kind of high is right, it's more similar to brownie highs

I have one that kind of just sits around. For some reason I've never really gotten into the vaporizers. They're also not really conducive to sneaking a quick toke. The few times I've used them I've noticed that the high just doesn't seem complete and it doesn't seem to last as long either. My sample size is pretty small though. Maybe I'll fire it up tonite and reevaluate.

jesus, indicated by the owner responses here alone the manufacturer must be raking in the dough.

Can you use lower quality weed but a little more to get the same high since it just burns out the THC?

Wow, thought this thread would die faster...

Anyways...You can def. tell the diff. in quality of product, but yea you can load it w/ lower grade and be dandy.

There's pro's and con's to the Volcano, but overall I like it. I figure it as a long term investment since I probably won't drop the benign vice anytime soon, I might as well be healthier about it then. I just wish it was portable so I could take it to the beach or something.

If you don't completely spend your Volcano's bowls, you can use it for baked goods or whatever, if you like that sort of thing.

Also, I think I saw a cheaper Chinese knockoff (~$200?)...but with all the bad press about Chinese goods, it probably spits out lead fumes.

you can buy a volcano on ebay for like $250-$300

then yes, it's worth it.

Yeah, pick up a used one if cash is a concern. Used and refurb stuff is underrated...or I just run good. The only thing you don't get is the warranty but this thing is pretty sturdy (although aluminum is pretty soft).

Re: Vaporizers, is the Volcano worth it?
 
Reading all these posts on vaporizers got me motivated to smoke out of my VapirOne again. I live pretty damn close to Mexico so we get pretty good schwag for a cheap price. I was complaining about the high that I get from the vaporizer, but this time I loaded two bags full of vapor from a bowl. Normally I just filled up one bag. It seems I have been wasting weed because I got so high I couldn't finish the second bag. It was a pretty damn good high and it lasted quite awhile. If the Volcano is supposed to be the creme de le creme of vaporizers then if you can afford it I say make the purchase.

God bless weed and video games.

I've done a ton of scouring on this and the volcano blows everything else away. I personally haven't purchased on yet because I'm cheap, and don't know anyone selling good green here.

Of note one thing I read (can't find link) is that all vaporizers other than the volcano actually show insignificant health benefits.

weed economy is huge.

lately I've been saving all my leftover weed. Usually you fill like 10 bags or so when it's packed pretty well. Save the leftovers for a rainy day when I don't have any and don't feel like going out. Pack that [censored] with all the brown leftovers, turn up the temp to 195, and get baked again.

Whether or not it's good for me, I don't care. Give me a bong any day over a volcano plz. I like to choke and hack and blow big clouds of smoke everywhere.

The only way I'd switch to a vaporizer was if I had trouble getting pot and I wanted to make my stash last as long as possible. Even then, I dunno.

I just went out and got the Digi-Vapor VP500 after reading this thread, paid $500.

I originally tried a volcano a few months ago in a coffee shop in Amsterdam. I wasn't impressed at the time, but that's probably cuz I was blazed out of my mind to begin with.

Anyways, I just smoked 3 bags, and I'm pretty blazed. It tastes kinda strong to me, not as pleasant as a blunt or joint. But the effects are similar. And the hits don't feel weaker necessarily with the vapo eaither, they hit hard too.

Total setup time is similar to that of preparing a joint, blunt, or pipe, so nothing to complain about there. It's somewhat portable, but I'd rather keep mine in one place. It's not like I'm gonna bring it with me when I drive and plug it into my cigarette lighter or something.

So all-in-all, from a stoner's perspective who has really never had experience with a vapo, I'd give the whole experience a 7/10. Hopefully it'll last me long enough to get my $500 worth.

I actually do this sometimes. I got a cheap general purpose cigarette lighter adapter and the volc sits nicely between the two front seats in my car.

I first heard of the volcano on these forums and I'm very happy I bought one.
