What are vaporisers?
Vaporisers are devices that provide an alternative to traditional types of smoking. Instead of burning plant matter, vaporizers heat the material to high temperatures that release certain compounds. Many scientists believe that vaping is healthier than smoking, since the lack of combustion means fewer harmful chemicals are absorbed by the lungs. -
What are the different kinds of vaporisers?
Vaporisers can be categorized according to both their size and the type of material they vaporizer. In terms of size, the two main groups are portable vaporisers (which are powered by batteries and can be used anywhere) and desktop vaporizers (which are intended solely for home use, since they require a wall adapter). In terms of material, the main groups are dry herb vaporisers (which can only be used with ground plant material), concentrate vaporisers (which can be used with materials like wax, shatter, and/or e-liquids), and dual use vaporisers (which can be used with both dry herb and concentrates).
