Figured with the last few threads inspiring me to try out a dry herb vape. And I realized I knew nothing about it. But reading the manual and getting it going was easy. And I just experimented a bit and with temps. And apparently I landed in a pretty good sweet spot.

I will share some more of my experience, but I would like to hear some others more experienced takes on their usages, tips, tricks, favorite temps and getting the most out of it. Thanks!

    I’ve been exclusively using dry herb vape for a few years now. My favorite devices are my TinyMight 2 and various configurations of Dynavaps, but I also own or have owned lots of others, butane and desktop vapes, you name it. Welcome to the club! What device are you using?

    My top tips:

    • keep your herb hydrated with a Boveda pack. Dry weed vapes worse.
    • Temp can change the high. Different chemicals vaporize at different temperatures.
    • Save your vape poo. You can eat it for sleepytime fun.

        Titanium bowl + low-temp cap + Hula stem (long version). Adjust the bowl to about half it’s size (or a little more).

        Heat it past the 2nd click.

        This setup is highly efficient with full flavor and it’s great for micro dosing.

          It’s so versatile! And glad to see I’m not the only low-temp enthusiast. Low-tell dry herb vapes are the only thing my lame little lungs can handle.

        At home, either Simrell MVS with Ti 5 fin and the iSpire Wand if I’m feeling fancy, or my ol reliable BB6 with 2020 SS tip and the airport covered with surgical tubing, if I feel like using glass and getting ripped.

        On the road, Vong allows for versatility and Simrell FMJ to make using a torch easier.

        God I love how customizable the Dyna is. I would consider it best-in-class for conduction vapes and for sure the best for microdosing/regular people doses. IMO can’t quite compete with high end convection vapes for us real degenerates, though. Convection can just go through flower so much faster.

          There are third party dynavap addons?? Wow! I’m still on a 2020 model M and a normal lighter (I live at such high altitude that no jet lighters I can get my hands on even work)

          Sounds like you’ve got a good collection. I love my BB6/2020 SS tip as well! Glad to see another fan here.

          My go-to at home is the Hydravong with 2021 SS tip through a small bong. I can get massive clouds nice and cold and not feel like my lungs are breaking.

          How do you like the Simrell? I’ve been going back and forth about buying one for a while. I never had vape acquisition syndrome until I discovered DynaVap haha.

            The Simrell MVS feels very premium. Its one of the best bodies as far as hand feel and cooling goes, but not great with glass and because it’s so pretty I worry about scratching it. A treat to use but not as versatile, bad with glass and relatively difficult to clean. Not a must-buy IMO but great if you want to treat yourself.

            If you’re using a torch and you don’t have one yet, check out that Simrell FMJ though. Must-buy for torch use.
