VAPORIZER SCIENTIFIC STUDIES

 A number of scientific studies have been conducted on the use of Vaporizers. As early as the 1996 MAPS study, it tested two simple herbal vaporizer models, a then commer cially-available electric hotplate vaporizer and an early convection model vaporizer, against water pipes and filtered and unfiltered cannabis cigarettes (joints). The smoke and vapour produced by each was analyzed for solid particulates (tars) and three major cannabinoids. The various ingestion methods were then rated based on their cannabinoid-to-tar ratio.

EARLY VAPORIZER COMPARISON RESULTS:

The two tested herbal vaporizers performed up to 25% better than unfiltered cannabis cigarettes (second cleanest) in terms of tar delivery. Athough the NIDA-supplied marijuana used had a low THC potency of 2.3%; the authors noted that using higher-quality marijuana or hash oil would have improved the cannabinoid/tar ratio. The same study found that water pipes (bongs) and filtered cannabis cigarettes performed 30% better than regular, unfiltered joints. 

HERBAL VAPORIZER ADVANTAGES:

Any Portable Vaporizer does not completely eliminate respiratory irritation. A large puff of potent, vaporized cannabis will often cause severe coughing. Vaporization systems that utilize water for cooling and moisture conditioning by running the vapour through a water pipe attempt to address the temperature and moisture factor of the delivered vapour to enable larger inhalations without the respiratory irritation that still results from dry-vapour delivery.
