I must say I’m quite impressed with this little device.
Its ease of use and effectiveness make it a genuine alternative to smoking. It heats up in less than 5 seconds and the vapour is ready to be inhaled. I honestly don’t think I will smoke again having discovered this option.
I initially had reservations about its effectiveness but I have no complaints on that front having sampled it a few times. The effects can last a few hours. It only works well with finely ground, dried herbs.
The high is a little different to that you get when smoking. I’ve seen other posts on the web saying the effect is more of a head high and less of a body high – this sums it up pretty well. Admittedly, part of me enjoyed that comatose-like feeling where you sink into the couch barely able to move. You don’t really get that so much when vaping, but on reflection, that’s not such a bad thing. However, some smokers might miss that feeling.
It comes with rechargeable batteries – they do use a lot of power so it’s probably not suitable if you’re in a group of say 4 or 5.
All in all I’m very impressed. It will be interesting to see how the device fares over time. I’ve only had it about a week so can’t comment on its effectiveness/quality over time.
