Arizer Extreme-Q.. better than the Volcano??
Posted: Sat 27th Jan 2018 06:14 pm
Hey guys..
I need a bit of advice here - I'm looking to buy a vaporiser for home use and I have my eye on the Arizer Extreme-Q...
My only experience with vapes in the past has been the old faithful Volcano, both in Amsterdam and also at home - for the last couple of years I was kind of half-owner of a Classic Volcano, puchased with a friend to ease the cost. This however is no longer available to me, and having read up on what seems to be the main competitor - the Extreme-Q - I'm sorely tempted to hit the Buy-it-Now button!
Now just to put this in perspective - I have only ever used bag/balloon type units (with the exception of a Verdamper in Katsu many, many years ago!) and I'm quite happy with the ease of use from this arrangement and would quite like to continue much in the same vein. I've only ever smoked herbs pure, won't touch tobacco in any form, but found that using the Volcano seemed to be a lot more economical than rolling spliffs all the time... I've done a bit of research on the Extreme-Q and it seems to tick all the right boxes - plus it's a damn sight cheaper than buying another Volcano for myself! Money is tight at the moment and the cost saving of using a vaporiser is almost as much of a major attraction as the health advantages!
I've been through all 20 pages of the post here - viewtopic.php?f=7&t=13852 - and read with great interest ALL the many informative post on the subject - including the views of the converts to this cool piece of kit - I know Cisco raves about it, amongst others - some of whom I've met from time to time over the years - and their views and requirements seem to be very similar to my own...
But here's the question - am I missing something?
Is there something better out there?
Price, sadly IS an important consideration these days, which is why I've ruled out another Volcano, and I know that the Arizer V-Tower seems to be essentially the same unit but without the fan and therefore the option to use balloons and bags for about £20 less...
I'm not really looking for a handheld, portable device - desktop seems to be the way to go for me, and since I can get the Extreme-Q for under £140 (£110 cheaper than the Classic Volcano), this would seem to be the direction to go in...
Thoughts? Suggestions? Alternatives that still have the same performance and options?
C'mon you guys - help an old toker out here!
