Direct Heating Vaporizers

 

  1) The vaporizer is heated up. Once heated, the material is placed on the
1) heating plate.
  2) The active ingredients vaporize. Because of the way the material is heated, the
2) material closest to the heating plate will heat too much and burn, while the
2) material furthest away from the heating plate will not be heated enough and will
2) not vaporize.
  3) The vapor diffuses out of the glass jar into the base. This is an inefficient
3) method - not only does it take time, but the vapor will also likely condense
3) on the jar before it can be inhaled.
  4) You inhale and fresh air goes through the carb, shooting what little vapor you
4) get that makes it to your lungs. Inhaling will speed up the diffusion of the vapor
4) from the jar to the base.


Indirect Heating Vaporizers

 


  1) The vaporizer is heated up and the bowl is packed
1) with material. (Vaporizer core is shown in picture)



  2) The bowl is put onto the vaporizer and the user inhales.
  3) The hot air passes through the material, effectively
3) vaporizing the active ingredients. If the temperature is set
3) correctly and the user does not inhale too slowly, no
3) burning of the material should occur.
3)


Heat Gun Vaporizers

 

 
1) The material is placed in the bowl and the heat gun is turned on.

  2) Once the heat gun is placed in the bowl, the user inhales.
  3) The active ingredients are vaporized by the hot air
3) passing through the material, just like with indirect
3) heating vaporizers. The heat gun produces significantly
3) more hot air than the indirect heating vaporizers, so the
3) vaporization is more effective and hits contain more
3) active ingredients.
