I'm on my second vapirone 5.0. Well actually I "WAS" on my second. It's sitting in a box with tons of extras for it being unused. I bought my first one for $75.00 from Vapir themselves. Great receptionist named Holland helped me out with a refurbished unit. The temp control went nuts and it started smoking the herb big times. Rolling clouds of smoke even. The bags were useless after they are smoked out too. It leaves a residue that affects the taste for ages. It was under warranty so I got a 2nd. It leaks vapor from every seam. When I asked about it at Vapir I was told it was a problem they were fully aware of and if it was too bad I should send it back (at my expense of course) so I bought a herbalaire instead. Got a demo model for $20.00 less than a brand new model from the vapor store. What a huge difference. I never realized how inefficient the vapir one 5.0 was at vaporizing cannabis until I tried the herbalaire. I was able to get 2 full bags of thick vapor from the left overs from one vapir herb disk. The LEFT OVERS!!! After I used the herb in the vapir one 5.0 I then transfered it to a herbalaire crucible and got 2 bags of left over vapor that would normally be thrown away. That alone gives me the opinion that while the vapir one 5.0 works alright...it's a weed hog compared to the herbalaire or volcano. Plus using the whip on the vapir isn't the best. You can't use it without forced air which causes one to either turn the machine off between puffs or waste bud into the air. See my review on the vaportower (coming later tonight) for info on a great whip machine.
