[QUOTE=No Party Hats;46786622]the ago g5 is pretty nice if you've got a screen too. fucking 25 bucks for a full dry herb vape legit
also its interchangable with all those crazy addon parts for vapes people make, so you can just make a hella nice vape for like 60 less than you'd pay[/QUOTE]
G5 is really shitty. Without a screen it just combusts and with a screen it vapes but it still gives pretty weak vapor. However if you don't care about actually vaporizing and just want a cool ecig-tank-looking herb smoker then G5's are really nice.
[QUOTE=En-Guage;46508331]I see there is a thread on vapes, might go there[/QUOTE]
Watch out, the thread name and specified by OP indicates the presence of dreaded vape noobs who classify an ecig and vaporizer both as a vaporizer("vape" may be used to describe an ecig but a "vaporizer" is only the kind used with 'herbal stuffs').

actually vape is just a shortened way to say vaporizer, there are no brands that own the definition of the words

Well yeah but my main point was that there are people who classify a vape, vaporizer and ecig as the same thing.
[video=youtube;HnKwHWyHH4g]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnKwHWyHH4g[/video] You don't even need to watch video but just look at the title..they are talking about ecigs and calling it a vape pen >_<
NONSENSE!
[QUOTE=Ehmmett;46843461]They are the same thing.[/QUOTE]
They are not. A vaporizer uses an oven that gradually heats up to a certain temperature to effectively release vapor(boiled herb's oil steam) from dry herbs(commonly cannabis, but also can be used with peppermint, chamomile, lavender and others) without actually combusting that material.
An e-cig (there's various heating systems, but you should all know of a [url=http://www.vaporclubs.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Red-CE-4-E-Cig-Tank-for-E-Cigs.jpg]clearomizer[/url]) works by soaking up e-[u]LIQUID[/u] through silica or cotton wicks which then naturally travel upwards into chamber containing kanthal wire. This kanthal wire glows red hot otherwise, but since it's making contact with and heating wet and saturated wicks, it instead heats the wick to the point of the evaporation of the e-liquid.
In terms of phase change, both are technically doing the same thing. A vaporizer is boiling the oils in the plant into an inhale-able steam, and an e-cig boils the e-liquid into an inhale-able steam.
But calling an ecig a vaporizer or a vape pen makes you look like an idiot.
I guess you can call an ecig a 'vape' but not an ecig a vape pen or a vaporizer.
I would argue that any device which presents the user with vapor (whether it be produced from dry herb or liquid) is a vaporizer. Obviously the ecigs have a more complicated design but, in the end, it's performing a similar function.

Technically you're right, but for sake of easy distinction between dry herb units/wax units and ecigs, most people like to be able to easily know that a vaporizer means herbs and oil, and nothing else.
This thread has been very informative
I think I'm going to spend a lot because I'm buying this vape to stop smoking

Ah i see, so you're looking for ecigs, not vaporizers?
