"Top Vapor VP110"

[Mephisto]

I'd just bought a "Top vapor vp110" vaporiser from Off Ya Tree in Sydney, turned it on and heard a small popping sound, and now it's no longer working. Just recommending others don't try this vape, I'd read bad reviews and average reviews about it but wanted an entry level one till I can get a "Da Buddha" vape from the US or hopefully find one locally.

 

Anyone know any decent shops or places to buy in Aus that have good vaporisers?

please people... avoid Off Ya Tree like the plague... there are only a few Aussie Bong Shops that sell good vapes...

BNT has a couple of good ones last time I checked, the manual ones are reliable with a jet lighter.

 

but also Onlinesmoke have a new one made in Canada... its 500AUD though. OUCHIES.

 

Honestly Stick to your bongs man... less fucking around with wires. Unless its medical then i'd import a Volcano.

 

 

Most Vapes and products are made in china and depending which company makes them the quality varies.

 

most of OYT's stock is made in china.... ignore their claims of manufacturing their own stuff... 99% of the time its bullshit.

 

they manufacture only a small amount of what they actually sell.

Hey. We have a vaporite hyper from cheating the hangman. So far so good. Fast delivery. Temp is fine. Thw hip isn;t the best, but does the job.

If you can afford it "Da Buddha" is a great vape. We just wanted something cheapish that did the trick. Plus it looks like a graphic equalizer or something

Aromed............expensive and also can use homeopathic remedies.

vaporite are made in china, but still pretty good so I have heard.

 

I'd go with the Hi tech one that looks like an amp. leave it in your living room, I seriously doubt anyone is going to fiddle with it.... till they walk in and see you inhaling from a thing that looks like its hooked up to your TV.

 

most likely it will lead to a psychiatric assessment. "so why were you sucking off the VCR?"

 

 

meh my jokes arent too flash... cant blame me for trying

Hey Crank. Yeah - they're Chinese but seem to do the trick. I have the one you're talking about. Neat little unit and has the benefit of letting you watch what the current temp is after a draw so you can let the unit get back into vaping territory before drawing again (elements cool off after you draw a little). The temp control on it is quite pleasing. We kick off at about 160c and then notch it up gradually to about 210 when it runs low, when you can start getting that popcorny taste that means you're close to burning it. YMMV, but we're really happy with this one given the price.

paladin, this isnt the first time ive heard of this shipment for OYT fucking up... about 3 of my mates bought them and all of them are stuffed.

 

word of advice steer clear of chinese made electronics. I know the manufacturer, and even though these models are generic and are made by several factories, the quality does range. The factory that made these ones only produces good quality glassware and pipes, not electronics.

 

I suggest a volcano if your looking premium range, if not the OnlineSmoke Canadian made one if you have an extra 500 lying around.

 

If not BNT has a manual one which works fine and isnt too pricy.

 

 

I have been very disappointed in OYT's quality for the last 2 years, it has dropped significantly and the prices have unchanged.

3.5mm glass or even 3mm glass is unacceptable for those prices.

 

Just to put the cherry on top, wholesale price per unit cost is around 20-30 dollars. Considering they are getting direct from the manufacturer it seems unfair that they can sell the items for 140-150!

 

Sure I might pay 100 because of the shipping costs, and postage, but to have 15 dollars postage then slapped on it is disgusting, with 2 weeks waiting for your order???????? supposedly express?????

 

im sorry dude but thats not fair to anyone, and to also make it clear, OYT's items are even more expensive in store.

 

my mate went and bought "Aroma" for how much? 1 gram for 50 bucks.... its F##KING extortion from the smoking community.

 

you can order AROMA 3g for 50 bucks from NZ, and it gets through customs no problem.
