so, via bongs (i own three) is my normal way of inhallation, about a month ago i bought a SNIP (the currencies are different, i got a good deal on it where i live)
so, ive tried hundereds of times, i know the weed is vaping properly (170C, tried 180, 200,210,230) (in different days i would rip it one temp) and i know the weed is good cause when i bong it i get really high, im just finding i get nothing and i mean nothing from my vape, and im regretting my purchase.


i buy different buds all the time (i like to buy different buds every time, i got a spice rack with a bit of everything in it and i like smoking new stuff) )and i grind it up with a hand grinder) and when i bong my stuff i get hi (and some buds get me higher then others we all know how it is) but i bought my vape for 2 reasons:

1) when i first started smoking dope heavy (about a quarter to a half a week) about a year ago i tried my ex friends "pen style" vaporisor and this thing MESSED-ME-UP, it was great, and he had bought just a cheapo AA batteries powered one, and i used my buds in it, so i figured now that im more experienced id buy a nice good vape (so far not getting high off it is making me pissed)

2) health purposes, mostly cause of how much i smoke bong/joint i wanted to help take a load off my lungs

now i find i dont even bother using the thing because i just dont get anything form it, and all im doing is wasting my weed.

WHAT MY vaped week looks like
i know its vaping properly because of what ive seen, but its a light brown, if i smoke it i get almost sedated instead of high, which seems to be what people tend to say,
How much i smoke on a good basis
i know tolerance is probably my problem, and its probable that if i just ripped my vape over and over and over again i would get hi, but to me thats such a waste of kush, now if i bong rip usually ill pack a .3-.8 size bowl (a .3 being a wake and bake gotta still deal with work and stuff, and a point .8 being a "i just got off work and now i want to get my hi started" then ill bong .3-.8s just to "touch up" my hi.
somedays i smoke a entire quarter, some weeks a half lasts me the entire week, sometimes i smoke a ounce (28.3g.) in a week, lately im at a half a week for the summer looks like my trend.


thank you for your help

Tolerance maybe? How fine are you grinding the weed? Vaporizers like very finely ground weed.

A trick for getting thick hits on the extreme q is to pack it differently. If you look on the L-joint that connects the tube to the bowl, there is a small screen that prevents you from simply sucking the weed into the tube. Try packing the weed in that little screen instead of just putting it in the normal glass part. You may have to pack it kinda tight to get it to stay without falling down. Turn the temperature up and hit it. This should be a bit thicker than normal.

Also, be aware that the digital display on that vape is a bit misleading. When you first turn it on, the display shows that it gets up to temperature pretty quickly, but it actually doesn't heat up that fast. Next time, turn it on and wait for five minutes before yous tart using it.
 
oh i leave it on for hours at end and make sure its nice and hot, ill try it in the bowl screen on the ljoint

like most changes in ROA for weed there is a transitional period to getting used to feeling and appreciating the different high which vaping produces, some people love it, some hate it

i would advise you to have a break from weed for a month (it sounds like its about time for you tolerance-wise) and then assess if you enjoy the different high

smoking weed everyday for weeks on end will start making it more of a sedative than something which brings joy and creativity into your life, I dont think you can blame the vape for that

im not judging because ive been down that road countless times, but I honestly think if you got used to having your baseline being sober you would appreciate the vape high a lot more, i love to vape!

also do you have a kief catcher in your grinder? have you tried vaping kief? that could help you get high on the vape alone, also perhaps you underestimate how long you have to vape to reach a really noticeable rush kind of high which you could probably get from a few bowls in a bong, it used to take me 10-15 minutes of vaping and refilling the chamber you put weed in 2-3 times to get me to the standing up and seeing black and white point, that was when i was buying a quarter a week as well

Thanks for the heads up on the display (i have a digital heat theromitor (point and it tells u how how something is) so ill check it out tonight and see what the results are indifferent from the display.

if i smoke weed joint/bong i get nice and hi, i understand the need of a regular user to stop using for a month every once and awhile (i personally i have no intention to) (so far i have 8.9 grams of weed crystals saved up from about a year of saving them, ive been strong and resisted even a single bowl so far, i want to fill my jar up, but i will try smoking some from my next collection. ive been finding that after 5 packs and rips i start to get to the feeling where my bong is
buy personal bulk or switch to oil?
i do buy personal bulk, just dont want to always post specifics, but i smoke a half to a ounce a week. oil i make, dont really like it (its a stupid issue i have agaisnt oil, and thats more because of a bad experience)

thank you all for your help!
 
you'll get used to it, the high is different, switch between vaping and bongs for a while and i can guarantee you that you will end up vaping all the time in the end. It took a while for my gf and i to transition and we have a volcano with all the fixings :) but we did and never looked back. Don't give up on it yet! plus they take a while to really learn how to use properly, so that's also an issue but stay persistent and you won't regret it!

i have zero issues with tolerance using a vape and in fact i only take 1 hit from it most times, some people will smoke bag after bag on my volcano but once you're a full time vape user, you'll find you are using much less and getting more high, even with tolerance.
 
Do you have a high tolerance? Try taking a long break from everything and then try it. Go to the site fuckcombustion.com and read about various vaporizers there the people there said that Arizer should be avoided.
