Top Tips

Vaporizers have surged in popularity partly because of the increasing number of options for vape products and because more and more people are becoming health conscious and ditching habits like smoking in favor of less damaging alternatives. However, with so many options available in the market, finding the right vaporizer for your specific needs requires a little bit of research. Here are the top 5 things you need to consider if you want to find the best vaporizers.

Durability

Durability is an important consideration especially if you are willing to spend a considerable amount of money, and because most vaporizers are used as portable devices. Your device should be able to withstand the abuse of regular use and handling. The good thing is that the top vape brands now produce vaporizers designed to last for several years. These usually come with metal builds or frames for durability, as well as all-metal heating systems to ensure that no part of the device is burned or damaged as the device is used on a regular basis. Aluminum frames and parts also ensure that the vapors are not contaminated with vaporized plastic or other toxic chemicals.

Portability

Most people user vaporizers on the go, which means that portability is a major consideration when looking for a vaporizer. There are portable vaporizers that resemble small drinking flasks and even asthma inhalers, that can easily slip into the front pocket of a coat or blazer. Smaller, pen-type vaporizers are more discreet and are often mistaken for actual pens. However, small sizes do not mean a compromise in quality. You will notice a lot of companies coming out with small vaporizers that are packed full of features, such as multi-temperature settings. Larger portable models come with larger heating chambers, larger LED displays, and more controls.

Vapor Quality

Top vaporizers are known to deliver full, high-quality flavors. This is the result of the right amount of temperature that produces the steam that passes through the herbs or the concentrate. The device should apply sufficient heat to draw out the pure flavor without burning the herbs. Cheaper versions tend to produce more heat which produces more vapor and burns the dry material. While there are those who prefer denser clouds of smoke compared to pure vapors, devices that deliver only true vapors by using the right temperatures are ideal for users who also have medical conditions like asthma and bronchitis.

More and more companies that produce portable pen vaporizers are also coming out with newer designs that ensure that herbs are not burnt inside the heating chamber. These designs include the use of embedded heating coils that deliver the right amount of heat for quality, flavorful vapors.

Ease of Use

Vaporizers are designed to be easy to use because they are often used by people on the go. Most users prefer a device that they can easily plug in, turn on and start using, without any fuss. The simplest devices also tend to be the most popular especially if they are easy to use, durable and produce great vapors. Look for a device that has automated preset levels, only two or three buttons such as those for power and temperature, and a convenient loading chamber that allows for easy loading.

Cost

Of course, it is important to determine how much you are willing to spend, ideally after you have considered the items above. The nicer, more sophisticated models tend to cost up to a couple of hundred dollars and can be intimidating to operate especially for new users. The good thing is that there are so many options when it comes to price points. For example, if you are on a budget, you can start with a concentrate pen, which costs an average of $60 including the cartridge and a battery. Quality versions that are portable but a few sizes larger can set you back from $100 to $300 for the basic kits. More expensive options may come with longer warranties, better construction, and better vape qualities.

Vaporizers are great tools for getting the best therapeutic benefits from your oils and herbs. They also allow users to have more freedom when vaping in public because they are discreet in size. Most importantly, vapor is healthier and do not leave a physical hangover which is typical with conventional cigarette smoking.
