Herb Vaporizers 101

By Johnny Miller

Have you heard about the herbal vaporizer or herb vaporizers? If you have, are you familiar with them.

Herb vaporizers are devices ran by electricity or battery power and they can heat the herbs and let the active ingredients be released through a vapor. So if it's a cannabis or a tobacco fix you're waiting for, you can just buy vaporizers and you can get your fix easily. But that's for the weed and nicotine addicts. For fixes like those, most addicts simply smoke cigarettes or rolled weeds but that's harmful because of the actual act of burning. So if you want to get the normal fix without burning, you must just use herb vaporizers. Vaporizing helps you get your fix without the detriments of burning such as tar, carbon monoxide, carcinogens and other forms of toxins. This way, there are no toxins and no second hand smoke. It's win-win for all.

Since it is known that vaporizing is truly a better alternative to smoking, there are no bans against vaporizing. However, what you need to pay attention to, though, is if cannabis is legal in your country. If it is not, even if you use a vaporizer to get your fix, you are still violating laws. Better be safe than sorry.

Moreover, you can also use an herbal vaporizer for relaxation. There are hospitals, spas, wellness centers and even homes which use high grade digital vaporizers to release vapors from chamomile, lavender, rosemary and other herbs which have a pleasant aroma.

BUT if you're still unfamiliar of how exactly these herb vaporizers work, you can use this summary: First, the herb vaporizer will use hot air or directed heat in order to vaporize. The first method of heating is thermal conduction. This may be done by placing the herbs in just one heating element, a metal plate. The second method is through convection. This one heats the herbs only with hot air passing over it, and there is no direct solid contact involved. The third method is thermal radiation, which utilizes light for heating of the herb. Once the herbs are already heated, there will form a misty vapor and that vapor will contain the active ingredients which you wish to inhale. This vapor may be delivered through a tube and you can inhale it directly from there. But if you prefer to inhale it later, it may be stored through a bag or a storage jar, still part of the entire vaporizer structure.

Even when you buy the best vaporizer, it is important that the temperature that will heat your vaporizer to will be verified. If the heat levels are low, vapors will be simply therapeutic and they might not contain the active substances of the herbs you're using. If such substances are not present, then there won't be a physiological effect. On the other hand, if the heat levels are high, the active substances will be IN the vapor and you will inhale them in high density.

That's all for a quick Herb vaporizers 101. Good luck in your hunt for finding the best vaporizers!
