The Hammer - Portable Vape
Posted: Sat 18th Oct 2014 06:40 pm
My Hammer died on me unfortunately, after about 4 months of regular usage. The very nice people at Azarius let me trade it in for a first gen Flowermate, if I paid the 10 euro difference.
So now after a decent amount of time with the Flowermate I can say the Hammer is far superior in terms of the actual vape pleasure - flavour and plumage. It is also great for weed economy, a little can go a long way.
However, as I remember from my Iolite days, butane technology seems to be a bit problematic, as the breakdown of my Hammer has proven to me. Also, the fragile glass stems were a problem to keep in one piece, esp after a big session, as this thing can really hit hard! I had to buy a second pack of stems and was about to buy my third pack, before it stopped working.
Finally, the stealth issues - using this machine really can look like you are smoking a crack-pipe or something.
Summary - I would not swap back but I do miss the clouds.
