Vaporizers, is the Volcano worth it?
My vaporizer recently met its untimely end, and I'm considering taking the opportunity to upgrade to a Volcano, but the price difference is so steep that I really wonder if it's worth it.
What I had:  Price tag: $150 What I'm considering getting:  Price Tag: $540 As you can see it's a dramatic price difference. I am also open to suggestions for vaporizers I haven't yet heard of. Oh, OOT, please guide me in my moment of indecision.

Re: Vaporizers, is the Volcano worth it?
How long does it take to smoke out of these? Like preparation / cleanup / all that crap. This thread has me intrigued in purchasing one now.
edit: how much do you actually save in weed? Significantly more than bud in a pipe rather than a blunt / joint?

You def save a good amount of weed from it. If you were to roll a blunt then empty it out and smoke all of it out of a vaporizer instead you would be so unbelievably high. Also be careful cause the glass gets pretty hot. One time I was drunk and I took the thing out to look at it for some reason. Well I was an idiot and accidentally pressed it up against my upper lipp and burned a semicircle into it. Needless to say I look like a tard for the next week or so.

Re: Vaporizers, is the Volcano worth it?
heats the pot up to a temperature high enough to vaporize the thc but not high enough to start combustion. apparently a bunch of toxins are released in the combustion reaction that aren't in vaporization.

Re: Vaporizers, is the Volcano worth it?
Q:
How much better in terms of health is this supposed to be for you, compared to say, smoking from a piece? This might be a really stupid question, but if nothing is on fire then theoretically you're only filling your lungs with THC and not with smoke? I'm an endurance athlete (rowing) but I still like to get high sometimes. I don't smoke that often (maybe 2-3 times a month) and don't really think I've noticed decreased performance, but I couldn't be sure.
