The dangers of smoking are legendary. The tar content of the smoke clogs the lungs. The residual chemicals released while burning the tobacco are noxious. Smokeless tobacco, or chewing tobacco, is bad for the mouth. It causes oral tumors, dental discoloration, and poor oral health, generally. The best way to enjoy an herbal blend is with a vaporizer.

While standard smoking uses combustion to heat and release the active ingredients in the herb, a vaporizer doesn't ignite the herb, it boils it. Vaporizing, or vaping, heats the herb until the active ingredients are released, but no further. There is no smoke because the herb never reaches the flash point. No smoke means no carcinogens or ash, no tar or carbon monoxide, and no other noxious gasses. And, because there is no fire, the vapors are pleasantly warm and not hot enough to hurt the throat or lungs like smoking can.

Vaporizers also are a more effective, economical way to enjoy your favorite blend. Smoking burns up a fair share of the active ingredients in the herb--up to forty percent. It also makes the blend taste like smoke. Vaporizing keeps it real. The real flavor of the blend comes through when it's vaporized.

Up until recently, the only problem with vaporizers is that they lacked portability. It's easy to light up a cigarette or pipe, but a vaporizer needs alternating current. A vaporizer is large, even a small one. Not everybody has a vaporizer, so bring your own vape. Given the various logistical inconveniences, vaporizing on the run can be a nuisance, problematic, or even impossible.

The answer is battery-powered. It gets hot in three to five minutes and it heats for two hours on a single charge. It fits in your pocket. The answer is the portable vaporizer.

These vaporizers can be as large as a cigar box or as small as a TV remote control. They go with you to the party, to the beach, to the mountains. If you prefer vaping to smoking, it's easy enough to take your portable vaporizer with you.

The iolite is a palm-sized, mid-priced unit with a stainless steel mouthpiece. It is butane powered, with a flameless gas catalytic heater and digital thermostat. It weighs about as much as a cell phone, almost 3 ounces. The spent butane is expelled as water vapor, giving you pure vapor with no tars or smoke. It retains a heat of nearly 375 degrees and can heat for 2 hours on a charge.

The Vapir uses refillable herb disks to prepare the herb for vaping. These disks keep mistakes to a minimum, making vaping foolproof. It uses a ceramic-housed quartz crystal heating element to burn clean. Up to three people can partake at once with the Vapir. It's on the higher end of the vaporizer price list, but it comes with many accessories, including an aluminum grinder. The Vapir uses either a rechargeable lithium battery that lasts 25 minutes per charge or a world-wide adapter. The mini-Vapir Oxygen model holds a charge for one hour, but takes eight to twelve hours to charge. It also has a world-wide adapter.

Vapolution is a more expensive mid-priced vaporizer. It uses a glass heating element for super-clean vaping. It was the first glass on glass vaporizer. It is about the size of a large coffee mug. A charge lasts for two hours, which is how long it takes to recharge.

Vaporizers have hit the street, but even so, they're not meant to be used while driving or operating heavy machinery. Take your vaporizer with you on vacation, to the keg party in the woods, or down by the river. You can enjoy your favorite blends wherever you go for the cost of a good bubbler.
