Separate rating for vendor vs the item in reviews?
I think it would be cool to have the ability to rate the vendor and the item separately in a review.
Most of the time the vendor has done a stellar job with stealth, fast dispatch and comms so I rate high like 10 but sometimes the bud isn’t 10/10, you know?
I think it would be nice to have a more accurate review from everyone as to what they thought of the bud alone, esp since we can’t see it in person before purchase and pics aren’t much to go by.
WHATS THE BEST? dry herb vapouriser for those on a budget?
just bought a cheap vape on amazon- The ANIX Pathfinder-steam machine. doesn't seem very good! anyone here got any experience on the matter? or has anyone got one for sale?
I’ve had the Xmax V3 for a couple of months, absolutely great device but make sure you get dosing capsules if you get one as it saves a lot of hassle cleaning.
I also had to get a new one because I tried concentrate in the concentrate cup and it leaked out and ruined my oven I probably just done something wrong but just some merging to be wary of.
shit i guess 300-400 degree oil would make a mess of anyting! lost-odins-eye(cool name) What the hells a dosing capsule? more rabbit holes to fall down lol. cheers mate appreciate your input
I have this vape too. Seems pretty decent for the price. My mate's got the mighty which is better but was twice the price. Agree completely on the dosing capsules.
A dab pen works loads better for extracts. I've got quite a basic one - utillian v2. Was like fifty quid. Will probably upgrade it as it's a pain to clean but it works really well and it's pocket sized.
I did the same thing a few years back, finally settled on an Arizer Solo 2 which ended up feeling more like a waste of money, i wish id saved up and got a Mighty first time around as that's what I'm saving for now, although the dogs latest visit to the vets has just disappeared 160 sheets from the "GetMeAMighty" jar so i might be joining you on the Xmax V3 gravy train for the foreseeable...
Thanks for the information_BrianRollConer! I honestly think the dynavap in my hands is an accident waiting to happen (advise given in https://littlebiggy.com/viewSubject/p/4817403) I am now looking into Terpsicle and lotus by vapman thankyou!!!
I bought a Spirit for less than a ton at the local head shop Does the trick. I then got a crafty+ which isn't budget but was a significantly better experience.
I have been researching this exact same topic (also looking to switch to dry herb vaping). The two gold standard "budget" vapes are the XMAX V3 Pro and the Arizer Solo 2. I say budget in quotes because they will still set you back £100. As I understand it though, vapes are a market where you buy cheap, you buy twice.
The advantage of the XMAX V3 Pro is that it has an "on demand" mode (where you can heat the chamber for single hit as and when the mood takes you). The Solo 2 is a little better built and more stealthy. Otherwise, they are functionally the same.
If you want cheaper, then I would say dynamax range. They are manual heating, so there is a "hidden" cost of buying a decent lighter and learning to use it. However, I have seen other people here raving about them, so likely worth it for the long haul.
Dunno how much this counts, but I am looking to buy a XMAX V3 Pro myself.
I'm not sure where you are researching but the solo isn't great for existing smokers due to the slow extraction speed
Also it's not stealthier than the V3 in reality
Functionally they both extract weed but that's where the differences end
Solo is a predominantly a sipper this is because of the weak heater and the fact it needs the glass stem to heatsoak before you can start to extract nicely
Think of a McDonald's milkshake and that's the draw resistance
V3 is convection biased and you have a more open airflow in it but you will use a completely different style of inhalation to extract
V3 would be my choice for anyone who smokes out of those two
solid information DeadRabb1t. I am definately having an airflow/inhalation issue with the cheap thing i bought off amazon! Very unsatisfying! I'm getting the V3
I don't use it as much as the Crafty+, however I'd say it better for a quick extraction. You can really load it too in comparison. It's just not as convenient, can't use a torch all the time with others around. I did get a cheap glass one from Aliexpress and it broke after a couple of goes, not worth it for a cheaper one thereal TRWW one is far superior.
If you’re looking at circa 100 quid then maybe too cheap for you. A mate bought me a Yokan Evolve (was £22 on EBay). It’s really only good for one, maybe two tokes at a time before it needs a refill, but a year later and it’s still going strong. I still have the spare heating chamber it came with too. I soak the chamber and lid in isopropyl fairly regularly.
Anyway, thought I’d chip in. Hope you find something you like 👍
Under a ton the Xmax V3 pro or the Dynavap are probably your best bets. I haven't tried the X-Max myself but the folks on the interwebs rate it. Dynavaps might hit a bit harder and probably better for hash or concentrates (b/c they can get to higher temps - use them on top of a bed of degummed hemp fibre or flower for this). On the other hand, they are a bit more fiddly and if you need to be stealthy, then butane lighter powered vapes are not the best choice. If you use mostly bud and want to use it on the go outside sometimes then maybe try the XMax. You can get 10% off from Vapefiend with the code 420, which will get you a V3 for £79 or a Dynavap M for £58 (you will also need a jet lighter for the Dynavap).
I like the pax 3, although I lean more towards carts these days.
I've got a dynavap with all the kit but gave up after a couple of goes. Think my triple torch was too much and couldn't be arsed to get a single torch. Would be happy to find it a new home

I think the rating on the service as a whole is good. If the bud isn't the best but stealth etc is good then it should be rated as such, not everyone would go onto the seller's page before buying so easier to see at a glance, what the experience was like.
I want to express my gratitude for the effort you put into compiling this list. It's individuals like you, who are part of the community, that make this platform so captivating.

You are legends! Thank you for taking the time to put this together and help the community grow ;-) massive appreciation - love you and peace to you Weedologist 🙏 ❤️ 🌎
So I'm thinking of adding to my vape selection. I used to have a crafty and a mighty but have run them both in to the ground. Great vapes but not sure I want to spend out on another knowing it won't last all that long. TinyMight 2 looks like a little ripper but would be nice to be able to also relax with session vape from time to time. So this brings me on to the soon to be released POTV Lobo, seems like the best of both at half the price. Would love to know what you guys think?
I don’t think you’ll find anything that’s set up to last longer than S&B. Certainly not the TM2 which has a glass core that’s easy to break, a notoriously short lived power button and problem circuit board!🤓
Given everything you've just mentioned I'm surprised they have a ten year warranty on it. My mates just got one and he's very impressed with it, best he's tried apparently.
Thinking I'm going to hold out and see what the reviews on the POTV Lobo are like, it's a shame the 100 day trial doesn't apply outside of US/Canada.
Mine’s never broken either mate, I’m just basing it on the subreddit 😉 I just know if the TM2 and the Mighty had a fight, I know where my money is going!😎👍
I appreciate the input mate. As it stands I feel like I need both the TM2 and the Mighty+ (I imagine it'll last longer if it's not the only vape). Or if the hype is real just the Lobo, link attached.
Had them both replaced using the warranty but when the second units wore out they were no longer under warranty (as it doesn't renew with the new unit). Good to know the Mighty+ has a 3 year warranty though.
I’d give S&B Support a shout as they repaired mine out of warranty for free. Worst thing they can say is no, but in my experience their customer service is top notch.
So I picked up a Mighty+ whilst out in town earlier. Not really my first choice but it was there and could pay cash so thought fuck it why not. Bit disappointing to see no charger (just a USB-C cable), grinder or filling aid and only the one dosing capsule in the box though. They sell a USB-C supercharger separately but considering the cost over the original Mighty it should really be in the box from the get go. I'm still keen for a TM2 or possibly a Lobo once the verdict is out.
Turns out I only get a 2 year warranty as the receipt isn't detailed enough for them to give me the extra year (date and price paid not enough), detailed enough for 2 years though!
The crafty or the mighty none are designed to be a session device. That’s what the volcano is for. And I’m with pollypuff20 you get what you pay for. My volcano stopped connecting to Bluetooth. S&B got it collected from my house and a brand new one delivered back to my house within 5 days. This is the service you get from a 20 plus year old company. Also German outstanding build quality.
