I’ve been smoking weed half my life, though in the past 5-6 years it definitely increased now that i work at home. I also used to sell it so I would always have a decent amount on me.

It started to feel more like a compulsion instead of just getting high. I would pack the bong and smoke it and be like, “why did i do that”. Plus my tolerance is way too high, Ill rip an infused joint and not feel much, making me question myself more.

I don’t drink much. Ill get a 6 pack every other month maybe and then when it’s gone i don’t get more for awhile. So i decided to test myself: I just wasn’t going to buy weed when I ran out. I was going to try and treat it like a 6 pack. It’s been 5 days no weed which is probably the longest break I’ve had in a decade.

Anyways if i can do it you can too, and i appreciate your support. Love you Hexes.

      It’s amazing, just got one for my partners mom. It’s very bong reminscent because you just hold the head up to the bowl like you would a lighter. On the higher temps it will absolutely put you on your ass like a bong

          I’d love to get a volcano someday but this is definitely less hassle. I just use a dry ash catcher with a bowl that has a screen and I pretty much never have to deep clean my glass, just change the water

          It’s amazing, I had similar issues with coughing prior to getting off combustion. This scratches the same itch since it works with glass and can give some very substantial hits unlike a lot of vapes. If you can afford it and plan to continue using cannabis there really isn’t better purchase you could make imo

          Vgoodiez is where I got mine, they are very helpful with any questions you may have

        B-Zero

        Which injector did you get if you don’t mind me asking? I’m looking at the glass one and the metal one and not sure if the price difference is worth it.

        My vapebong broke a little while back and I’ve been looking to replace it, but the price has shot up. I bought mine when they were still being made by Dr. Colly, they were about half the price then. Many kudo’s to Jaxel though, I love the new models they’ve created but it’s hard to justify that price on something made out of ceramic again.

          I have one as well, when I was speaking with the shop, they recommended glass for flavor of metal for durability.

          I’ve dropped it a handful of times without issue, and just keep the thing in a jar of acetone like it’s a barbershop tool because the holes tend to gunk up.

          Best purchase of my weed habit to be sure. Much less impact on my respiratory system compared with smoking but the ability to use it with regular glass and control the temp still gives you the regular fat hit experience.

          Vgoodiez was who I got it from, fine folks

              Sure thing, I think you could also evaporate off the acetone after a while and use the reclaim for tinctures as it would already be decarbed. I’m considering it seeing as the glass will be relatively sticky if the acetone isn’t immediately cleaned off after removing it from the container.

              As an aside, the heavier stand is 100% worth it. Also be careful of pulling the bowl out of the slide when removing the element from the injector. Everyone, including me, who was inexperienced with it did that at least once in their first use
