Hey first post here, but I had a question about the Herbalaire. I got mine a few weeks ago and I'm pretty pleased with it, but not completely. I hadn't smoked since I got my herbalaire until the other day and the high I got from the joint i smoked was a whole hell of a lot better than what I've been getting from my vaporizer. Same weed too, which unfortunately isn't very good this time around, but I'm probably spoiled (from Northern California). They're probably mids. Anyway, any hints or suggestions as to why I may not be getting that high? I set the temp to around 340 and work up to 375. Thanks!

I set mine at 370 and leave it. It's the best range for max THC and minimum toxins. Are you using direct draw? That's not the best way to use this vape. You will get vapor that way, but the hits are small and thin because of the small airway in the moutpiece extension. If you're getting vapor but not the high you want, I'd say you'd be out of luck with any vape. You won't get much of the couchlock feeling with vapor. The vast majority of herbalAire buyers are very happy with it.

You've made 3 posts on 3 different threads, all saying pretty much the same thing. Stick with one post on one thread, and if your question doesn't get the answer you need, ask for more info on the same thread.

Thanks again for your help. And ya, like i said, it was my first time posting and I had NO idea everyone would be so helpful and so I posted it over a few relevant boards. Won't happen again though, thanks...

I like direct inhale the best and I find that if I use the mouthpiece extension, I don't get the hits I want....I find them too thin....I do not use the mouthpiece extension (the skinny one) on top of the fat one that goes on top of the unit....I inhale from the fat mouthpiece and I get good thick hits for the most part....I find it a bit hotter on my throat but I've gotten used to it....drink water every other hit....see if that works better for you....I start vaping with my Herbalaire at 360 and when there's no more vapor, I break up the herb a little and turn it up to 365.....when there's no more vapor, I dump the rest....hope it works out for you!

Interesting. I'll have to try that.

The cardboard box that my herbalaire came in is falling apart, plus its a pain sometimes to get everything in there. Anyone bought a travel case for theirs? The only ones i'm finding online are for volcanos.

Also, it's time for me to replace the bags (they're leaking). I think i've read you can use oven bags? The replacement bags on the herbalaire website are over $6 a piece so I'd rather not go that route.

Maybe something like a case for a gun or camera. Cut the foam to fit. You can use Reynolds bags. I've only used the herbalAire and Toppits/Volano bags. You can get a 4 pk. on ebay for $18.

My Volcano bags came today, for use with the HerbalAire. Now I've got to get some cable ties, and I'll be all set. Thanks again for your help.
