Ok so I just got a vaporizer and theres a temperature control. I understand everything else but then theres the temperature nob. No number labels it just turns. I dont understand how far I should turn it? After I turn it for a tiny bit it clicks, thats probably it turning on but how much further? All the way? half way or what?

Edit:K nobody is on the forum right now and I wanna get high so Ill try it out at full temp
 
i've never used a vap so i'm not sure.

though i just looked it up and grasscity's member chiefton8 (who i've come to find is right about 95% of the time) had this to say:

[...] by staying at a lower temperature, around 350[F], you can still get a significant fraction of THC to vaporize, just not necessarily all of it. at 392[F] all the THC will vaporize, but will also bring along other things (like combusted plant material).
 
Thanks but theres no way on my vap to tell the number. this thing is oldschool man

edit: this is my vap http://vapenow.com/images/VaporBrothershandsfree.jpg cept mines black and theres no temperature gauge. i guess im left sorta clueless eh? xD



lol, my bad, i didn't see that part of your original post.


left clueless indeed, my friend.

355-380 is what I use mine at.
Just slowly work your way up


Oh wait, no numbers, I have the same vap, except it just has numbers to know what temperature its at on the front.
 
I've heard a lot of the cheaper and older units have problems getting up to proper temp...
I would put it on high, and let it heat for like 10 min. If it's too harsh, maybe try 5 min on high, 5 min on 75% next time. Repeat until you find what works best.

BTW I just ordered a vap without a temp guage too, so I've been trying to find the same info :)
 
thanks guys, btw i looked up the "instructions" for my vap online and it gives instructions how to get the best tokes from this thing and what temperature they say is best, they said at the 12'o clock so where the pointer is pointing north and it works good, should I actually keep track of how long I let it warm up? they said 5 to ten minutes so i guess ill watch the clock for 5 minutes next time I use my vap(going to in 5 mins)
