The Best Portable Vapes on the Market Right Now

Portable vaporizers are a great investment, providing a more pure smoking experience while saving you money in the long run.

Choosing the right portable vape for you

While conventional methods like pipes, one hitters and joints can leave you smelling like a grow op with no doubt about what you were up to, portable vaporizers allow you to light up conveniently and inconspicuously. There are a lot of great options on the market, so you should take a few questions into consideration to choose wisely and ensure your own satisfaction.

What’s your ideal pace?

When do you plan on using your portable? In a hurry as you sneak around back to catch a quick drag, or do you have time to sit back and let it warm up? Would you rather relax while you vape, and gradually build up your high, or do you just need to hit it and quit it?

What’s your method?

What substances are you using it for? From plain old herb, to shatter, hash oil, and budder, there are a few options that will work the best for your strain or concentrate of choice.

What’s your tolerance?

Vaporizers are great for people with low and high tolerances alike, but you should keep this in mind while considering your options. If you have a higher tolerance, you might want to invest in a vaporizer with a larger chamber for product, or something that’s ultra-easy to reload with herbs or concentrates.

With vaporizers, you’re in control over many variables such as the temperature, intake time and amount. Based off the information below, you should be able to find the perfect vape for you.

The VaporGenie comes in a range of colors and beautiful wood finishes. This “manual vape” works by gently flicking a lighter flame over the ceramic filter that evenly distributes the heat throughout the herb chamber. Once you get the hang of it, you can easily control the temperature with your lighter technique.

Perhaps you have more time to sit and enjoy your herb. Vaporizers don’t draw a lot of attention, thanks to the e­cigarettes, and the smell is subtle to nonexistent. So if you’re down to have a lasting smoke sesh, then try the Haze V3. The dual heating chambers allow you to change between flower, oil and concentrate.

Although it’s a pricier vape at around $250, the Haze V3 has a clean pull and an outstanding battery life. The vaporizer also allows the true flavors to really come through. The Haze V3 includes multiple interchanging mouthpieces but it can also be used without one. The only downside is the stout and wide build as it makes it hard to keep hidden.
