How did your VAS start?
(lemmy.world)
Welcome to C/Vaporents! This is the place to discuss your dry herb vaporizer, share gear shots, and get support from the community.
This is a general community for all vaporizers. Vapcaps, electric portables, desktops, PID powered injection ball vapes, or some artisan experimental one of a kind.
Beginners and those speculating the hobby are encouraged to make post asking questions.
Feel free to share deals to your favorite gear going on throughout the year so newbies can get a heads up.
Friend introduced me to his Pax1 vaporizer at a lunch meeting one day. The concept blew me away - a stealthy battery powered device to get medicated.
Went out bought a Davinci Ascent online as it was one of the most expensive and fancy portables on the market at the time (Storz & Bickle only sold desktops, and the only real competition was the MFLB and Solo1). What a mistake I made - that Ascent was one of the worst devices on the market at that price point hahaha.
Alas, the mods I made for that device kick-started my business selling accessories for vaporizers. Then I started getting flooded with requests to make various mods for all sorts of devices. And that's how VAS started for me.
These days I have many devices in my library (both working, and dead devices only good for test-fitting widgets), and I've handled literally countless vaporizers (lost count around four dozen lol).
By this point I don't need to buy new vaporizers.... aside from getting popular units to test-fit new products for the market. It's honestly hard to justify buying a new vape for my own personal needs because I just have literally so many.
Hell I have a Pax2 I bought a few years back for size-testing that I still haven't even used once lol
