Like a previous comment mentioned don't buy an expensive one first, start with a cheap one to see if you like it. I spent £80 on a Nebula X Dry Vaporiser from Amazon, bought it about 8 months ago, used it for 1 day and i have not used it since. I don't like dry vaping, i don't like how you have a time limit to take a draw, and i think alot gets wasted, but each to their own, everyone will have their preferred method of consumption but you don't know until you try. If i ever give up joints dry vaping will never be the successor, it will be vape carts and edibles.

Hi mate would be interested to hear how you got on with the Dynavap? I switched from smoking a couple of months back and got a Boundless CFC 2.0 for about £40 from Amazon - love it! Nice big chamber too! But I have to say I haven’t used it for a while since I’ve started using MJ Concentrates distillate cartridges, I find they do a much better job for me! I’m interested to know if you find the Dynavap compatible to smoking, I really miss it!! :)

Thanks Dougal, I’ll post back here if I remember. I went for the Dynavap 2020 versionon a website called Vape Elevate, was on special offer with a 10% discount at £63, if you sign up to email. The videos on youtube of it, look great.

Ah thanks Treebee! Yeah all I read are good things about it, would be great to know how you get on! :)

By the way, my mate smokes his resin in Honey Rose Herbal Tobacco alternative. Its not too bad.

Oh nice one cheers mate I’ve seen the tobacco alternatives about but never given them a go!

Hi Dougal. Been using the Dynavap now in the last few weeks and I must say its a nice device. I got the 2020 version as reviews said that the cap stays on better. You basically apply heat with a lighter, the tube clicks twice when heated and its ready to take a draw. It cools down, clicks twice again and its ready to heat again.You can have a few hits off one chamber, they get more cloudy as you go along. The first draw isnt cloudy/smoky. Its the first Vape Ive tried and I was impressed that it doesnt turn the weed to ash, it just turns it a brown colour, so I was reassured that I wasnt inhaling ‘smoke’. I would describe it as clean alternative to a pipe. You are getting the hits in a short bursts like a pipe, to me Its not quite as pleasurable as smoking a joint, a joint feels a lot more relaxed. A mate of mine smokes a joint with HoneyRose herbal mix, a tobacco alternative. Ive tried it and ordered some today as its not bad at all.

Thanks mate that sounds really good I’m going to have to get one on payday :) hope you’re doing well mate

Did you manage to use it with hash?

i love my fenix mini, maintains the flavour nicely and easy to hide in the palm of my hand. cant remember how much it cost but it was well worth the investment.

Try the crater 420 . It’s on amazon for about 100 euro. It’s a multipurpose vape. You can vape wax , shatter , hash and dry herb . Easy to clean and well built

Hi.
I use a dynavap and cotton bacon(special vaping cotton available on eBay) this protects the screen, then some crumbled or very small pieces of hash topped with more cotton bacon to protect the lid. Then vape respecting the click.
The first pull you get the taste...
The following pulls get more and more vapour.
So economic as well.

Given the price constraint I would say a Dynavap - personally over never found a good electronic vape under £150ish.

I’ve been hearing good things about the v-leaf go which is an on demand vape but I’m not sure if it’s available in the UK yet. Think it’s like $70 in the US - also not sure if it does hash but it might be a good one to look at.

Thanks for the tip.. dont want to spend too much in case I dont use it much. I mostly smoke weed through a waterpipe, is vaping much different? Is it really so different to burning/smoking. I gave up tobacco years ago so prefer healthier options.

No problem - I also went from smoking tobacco/weed joints to pure weed joints and then onto vaping so I know the journey you are on. I actually use the dynavap almost exclusively through a water pipe. Some people say the high is a bit different with vaping but I don’t think so. To really get into vaping I had to commit to stop smoking as I couldn’t tell if it was the vape or the smoke getting me high but after a few days break and then just using the vape I was fully converted.

From a taste perspective vaping is way better - I find smoking never delivered the full extent of the flavours as I guess the heat is quite damaging to the terps etc

I’d highly recommend the dynavap to you - you can get the 2019 model for like £65.

Thanks dude, Ive just watched a few videos of it and it looks exactly what Im after. I’d prefer something that doesn't need a battery and Im tempted by the new version at £70. Thanks for the advice.

No worries - I find that the 1st heat cycle doesn’t chuck out much vape but the next produce massive clouds through a bong, closest to the smoking feeling that you will find from vape so that’s always good when coming from joints.

I think you can also get an accessory/bowl insert that makes it good for other concentrates as well. When I use it with hash I tend to put a bit of flower in first to stop the hash coming through into the pipe so I don’t bother with the special insert and I use a different device for concentrates

Hey quick question on the Dynavap; do you need anything to connect it to a bong?

I just use a 10mm adapter. Dynavap fits into the 10mm end and then the other end is 14mm and goes into my bong. I think the newer version fits a bit better but mine works fine. Alternatively you can buy some silicone adapter

i’m fully converted to vaping now. It’s tastes better and it’s a much nicer, cleaner high. The differences to smoking I found were firstly that you don’t feel that hit of smoke on your throat as you take a puff like you do with a spliff. Some people like that hit of course. Secondly the fact that the high is cleaner it’s also less drowsy but sometimes that sedating effect is what people want/expect. That can be counteracted with a good indica dominant strain though.

Thanks Im thinking its the way forward. After seeing all the hash on here I really want some, but don't really want to start up in the tobacco again.. although I think a spliff is very hard to beat!

Hello, I would recommend a dynavap M mechanical vape I cannot fault mine. Bit more than £50 but worth it.

Thank you mate, thats the one I went for in the end. Great design.

Cool man.
