MY NEW VAPE ARRIVED AND IT’S AWESOME

Yesterday my new vapouriser arrived and it’s the most amazing invention in the universe.

Back in 2002 I purchased a vapouriser from Canada. There wasn’t much choice back then and I was very happy with it. It was a massive improvement from what I had before.

What I had before was an old chrome plated bicycle seat post and a gas oven lighter.

Although I often research all sorts of things online, for some reason up until a few years ago I never gave any thought to new developments in vapourisers at all.

And then when I did, there were so many options, and so much online discussion, that I gave up and went back to my old clunker.

Some of the new vapourisers even had Android operating systems, water cooling, and flavour modification options…

The thing I most want when I’m blasting myself into orbit is total simplicity. And my old vape had no controls. Not even an on/off switch. It plugged in to a wall socket, and to turn it off I pulled the plug out.

Essentially my old vapouriser was just a soldering iron with a jam jar, but it was all I knew. Most of it couldn’t be cleaned (apart from the jam jar), so over 15 years it came to look utterly disgusting.

What I didn’t realise is that it also did a bad job of vapourising. I know this now because my new vape is 4.8 million times better!

Fortunately there is an absolutely brilliant specialist vape shop in New Zealand. It’s called Helenskinz and it’s owned by a lady called Helen who knows vapes inside and out.

After looking around the website and getting overwhelmed by options, I emailed and asked her what would be best for my requirements – simplicity and good design for using small quantities of “herb”

She made two recommendations, one of which had already caught my eye because I thought it looked so cool, and which sounded perfect. So I bought one of these:

It is certainly the best vape I’ve ever used, but I’m not exactly a qualified reviewer.

Here are a couple of real reviews:

As well as producing much better tasting vapour, it’s also way more efficient in it’s use of “product”, it heats up really fast (under 30 seconds rather than five minutes), it’s really easy to clean (rather than impossible), its small and convenient (rather than about the size of a blender), and it’s simple to use (yes, even simpler than pulling that bloody power plug in and out)

It also doesn’t even have to be plugged in to use because its battery powered and charges up from a USB port (holds charge for 90 minutes use) so you could walk about in the streets getting high. I totally don’t recommend doing that, it strikes me as looking for trouble, but some people seem to be really into doing that sort of stuff.

Most people I know personally still wrap their “product” up in bits of paper, then set fire to it and inhale the smoke. I can at least say that I have thought that was totally gross since last century.

I am now highly recommending to everyone who likes to enjoy some pot on occasion, that they get themselves a modern vapouriser – they are kick arse awesome!
