Curious what others have found when transitioning to a vaporizer. Been a flower bong smoker for 3 ish years and the hockers got to be too much.

Got the arizer xq2 yesterday and have been enjoying the lack of black phlegm but the high is much headdier as opposed to body of the traditional bong.

Vapor sneaks up on you lol, being able to blow it directly in with the fan is nice too. Haven't fucked with the bags yet as it seems a little much. Been treating lungs as the bags with that fan honestly

What were your experiences/thoughts when going to a vape?

An aliexpress ball vape (b2cvape Store) is better and cheaper than a volcano, I really didn't like the volcano, fwiw I didn't like the arizer tower either.

The mighty+ and crafty are good for portable but they've got a battery that'll eventually die, I'd prefer replaceable 18650s. Even cheap portable vapes seem to do the trick.

Ultimately vapes are the healthier choice. I do miss bongs, they're quick and I get to breathe smoke like a fucking dragon, but smoke does more damage to your lungs, no questions about it.

Coming up on 7 years now on my Mighty and I did one battery replacement on it so far which took about an hour of work. I'm very happy with the vapor quality and notice a big difference comparing it against other vapes I've used ( pax 1, pax 2, dynavap m 2017/2022, boundless cf, and a few others). A friend has a Venty and it seems pretty nice too, but I like the flatter form factor of the mighty for better pocket fit.

I feel the other way around. I've used the mighty before but I hated it. It's double the size of my pax and seemingly lasts half as long.
