Im looking into getting one within the next week and was checking out this one The BC Vaporizor on Grasscity.com its free shipping and from what i've read/been told a reliable site. It costs 102.90. Seems like a good deal but is there a better one? Spending up to like 150-200 not really a problem.
With your price range I would rather go with the VaporBros vaporizer or if you want a portable vaporizer that works really well I'd go with the supremevaporizer from www.supremevaporizer.com
Just checked out both and the portable one you linked seems really nice, have you used that one before? Now leaning towards that one when looking at all 3.
DO NOT ever waste your money on any of those crappy direct heat (soldering iron) type vaporizers like the BC vaporizer, they're extremly over priced, barely work, and usually break within 2 months. Theres a limited amount of decent vaps available in your price range, but if your willing to invest another hundred dollars you can buy the vapobrothers vaporizer which features such as glass on glass whip style, variable heat function, upgradable parts (whips, bong adapters), and a 1 year warranty. I own one and can vouch for its quality, there are others who can do the same. Look up 'better living through science' somewhere in the main marijuana forum for a great review.
Dude, seriously, get a VaporBros. I love mine. I actualy wrote that "better living through science" artical, its located here: http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=160204 I actualy wrote a part 2, and im gunna post a part 3 pretty soon... part two here: http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=162646 I love my VaporBros, and after getting it, I wont go back to smoking with anything else. I make extensive use of the Vaporizer to "Glass on glass" attachment, and have hooked it up to pipes, bongs, etc.. I havent used a BC Bud kind, but im 100% sure that a VaporBros is way better. I bought the normaly type, but in retrospect, I kinda wish I bought the Glass on glass one. Seriously dude. get a vaporbros, you will not be disapointed. Edit: I got my VaporBros for $150, the Glass on Glass one was like $175 at the store I go to (I think thats how much it was) So a VaporBros (if you shop it around, and look at your local headshops) is totaly within your budget.
So I got my VaporBros in today and oh my god....its terrific. I have no idea how I could smoke out of my pipe/bong again. If you have 150, buy this thing.
