<p><a href="http://essentialgearguide.com/1/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/image14.png" target="_blank" rel="lightbox[536]"><img height="211" alt="Vapor Genie Vaporizer" src="http://essentialgearguide.com/1/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/image-thumb14.png" width="320" align="left"></a> Happy <a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3237/2428994432_3322bb49fa.jpg?v=0" target="_blank">420</a> everyone!&nbsp; To celebrate this year, you should pick up the <a title="Home Page" href="http://www.vaporgenie.com/" target="_blank">Vapor Genie</a> vaporizing pipe made of stainless steel and ash wood.&nbsp; <br />If you don&#8217;t already know, all herbs and plants contain oils such as nicotine found in tobacco, menthol in <a title="Mentha on Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mentha" target="_blank">mint</a>, or THC in <a title="Wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis" target="_blank">cannabis</a>. Vaporization converts these oils into vapor for a smoke free inhalation.&nbsp; Basically, you&#8217;re boiling your desired plant oil into a vapor just like you would boil water on the stove.&nbsp; In conventional combustion smoking, you burn dried plant matter.&nbsp; This high temperature burn creates toxic carcinogens (the <a title="Homer" href=" http://www.hulu.com/watch/16140/the-simpsons-first-hand-smoke" target="_blank">most dangerous</a> aspect of smoke inhalation).&nbsp; With vaporization, the oils are heated to their &#8220;boiling point&#8221; (somewhere between 225-375 F depending on the oil) while the byproducts of burning are left out of the equation.&nbsp; The result is a more potent, smoke-free hit.&nbsp; VaporGenie is the perfect gift for the <a title="Drugs are Bad" href="http://www.southparkstudios.com/clips/103414/?searchterm=drugs" target="_blank">little ones</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-536"></span></p>
<p>The secret to the Vapor Genie is the patent-pending flame filter located above the tobacco (within the <a href="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2296/2427991249_5b08447900.jpg?v=0" target="_blank">spherical wood top</a>). The flame filter mixes the flame with cooler ambient air.&nbsp; Keeping the flame directly off the dried plants prevents it from igniting and reaching temperatures that create harmful smoky byproducts. <br />The VaporGenie is used in a manner similar to conventional pipe smoking. The pipe is first loaded and then the flame filter is screwed on.&nbsp; It&#8217;s important that you not pack the bowl too hard; you want it nice and loose for the air to heat up.&nbsp; You also want to avoid touching the ceramic filter with the flame.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
<p>Since the VaporGenie is designed for use with flame, some exhaust is inhaled and thus not as clean as vapor from electronic vaporizers.&nbsp; Most users don&#8217;t notice this difference.<br />On the plus side, the VaporGenie is convenient, portable, less expensive, requires no heat-up time, and is more durable.&nbsp; The ceramic filter does not burn, fracture, or deteriorate; it never needs to be replaced. It&#8217;s also very easy to maintain; occasionally clean the screen and that&#8217;s all; it will not become clogged with tar.
<p>The wood of the VaporGenie is finely sanded and sealed with a natural food grade varnish; no glues, adhesives, or other toxic chemicals. The ceramic filter is made of high-purity silicon carbide, one of the most inert and heat-resistant ceramics available.&nbsp; The silicon carbide does not contain metals so it wont contaminate your vapor or create metallic flavors.&nbsp; </p>
<p>The ash VG is 4.5 inches from mouth-tip to the center of the bowl.&nbsp; The exotic model is 5.7 inches.&nbsp; The black mouthpiece is optional and can easily be removed.&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /><a href="http://essentialgearguide.com/1/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/image15.png" target="_blank" rel="lightbox[536]"><img height="225" alt="Vapor Genie Exotic Model" src="http://essentialgearguide.com/1/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/image-thumb15.png" width="423"></a></p>
