Vaporstar

With the Vaporstar you can easily turn your glass bong into a high quality vaporizer.

The Vaporstar is very easy to use. A butane gas flame is drawn through the Vaporstar using he power of the lungs, which heats up a small steel star contained within the extraction chamber. From the star sixteen points of heat surround and penetrate the herb, driving the temperature upwards until vapor is seen in the glassware.

When the vapour fills the pipe the flame is then removed and inhalation continues until cold air is drawn into the Vaporstar. The temperature quickly drops below vaporization point and the device 'switches off'.

With the Vaporstar heat control is easy and naturally adaptable to whatever is put in it. It will fit any small glass pipe for tabletop use (separately available), and fits 14.5 mm fitting or the 10 mm rubber collar fitting.

“It takes very precise timing and practice to achieve proper hits, same amount of work involved to vape manually with a standard pipe.
Secondly, the wooden bowl on the vaporstar is a joke, the taste of the wood is very nasty [and no this wasnt from scorching], just seems that every hit has a taste of wood or whatever they have coated it with...
Thirdly, i noticed on closer inspection that there was an oil based residue thats started to burn/heat up of some kind on the metal piece of the vapor-star, as there was multi-coloured tint across the metal, which indicates there is some sort of deposit that is reacting to the temperature.
Overall, the vaporstar is a great idea, and I respect the manufacturers for taking the initiative to produce such a product, BUT unfortunately the pieces used to make it were very cheap , and the overall quality of the product is very low.
I'm hoping the model gets remade, possibly with parts of higher quailty and that are more suited to the function of the vaporizer. Having wood at any point of the equation is just ridiculous. All the parts should be made of non toxic heat proof parts.
Sitting here now, my lungs are feeling pretty rough from a fairly stressfull session with the vaporstar. I've probably inhaled some fairly toxic chemicals from possibly the metal, and most definitely the varnish type coating on the wooden bowl, which is very aggravating and a big let down, i quit smoking a few weeks back [health reasons] and am used to using a volcano in this time... and thus my lungs have become hypersensitive to what i am inhaling.
When i inhale from the volcano i get pure flavour and a hit that tickles your lungs and i get superbly high for a few hours from it, when i hit the vaporstar i can taste all sorts of crap and i only get a pretty small hit [nothing close that would get me noticeably high] Then i gotta repeat the process a few more times before i start to feel it. Then I'm just left sitting there high tripping out about what these horrible tastes in my mouth are : /
