2016 Best Portable Vaporizer:
The quality of your herbs and the type of vaporizer you're using have a big effect on what temp setting you should use. Each vaporizer generates heat differently and most have a slight temp fluctuation during use. As you increase the vaporization temperature past certain thresholds the various terpenoids found in cannabis are released. This is why your vapor will taste different when vaped at 350° than it does at 385°. My recommendation is to experiment yourself to find what temps suit you best. Start out low and slowly increase the temperature until you reach your desired level of strength and flavor.
I also have a post with a list of my top picks for best vaporizer pen that has some really good info about how temperature settings work with those.
Once you go over roughly 400°F you'll probably start to get an unpleasant taste from your herbs, and once you hit 445°F you're at the point of combustion, so it's recommended to refrain from raising your vaporizer's temp past that point.
The Volcano Vaporizer (one of my all-time faves) is best set at about 6 on the dial, or roughly 374°F (190°C). When you factor in the temp flux of the heating element (+/- 9°F) your actual vape temps will be between 365°-383°F (185°-195°C) as it cycles on and off. The digital model is slightly more precise with a flux of only 2.7°F. Lately I've been experimenting with increasing the temperature past 6 after the first balloon, but it's all personal preference so see what works best for you.
The Extreme-Q seems to work well set between 383°-392°F. Because of the way this vape is designed the temp up where the herbs actually get vaped will be slightly lower than the core heater temp. I guesstimate the true vape temp to be roughly 20 degrees lower which brings you down into the ideal vape zone.
On the other hand, the Vapir NO2 is the opposite and in my opinion runs hot, so I've found the ideal temp setting to be between 350°-355°F. If you put it any higher than that you might overheat your herbs and get a burnt/funky taste.
The Magic-Flight Launch Box doesn't have a heat setting so you need to determine how long to keep the batteries engaged yourself. Taking small, quick draws is usually the most efficient way to use this vape and this method helps keep the temp from getting too high inside the chamber.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 201 of 201 Newer› Newest»If you like portable dry herb vapes that have precise temp. controls check out the Grasshopper! It took me almost 2 years to finally get mine and I am still waiting on my Titanium case for it, but it is excellent for dry herbs. The vapor comes out a little hot on the high setting though so I have been using it as a vape bong and now I only use my V.Tower at night or early in the morning when I am trying to be more quite. I keep my V.Tower set to 410. I read online somehwere that because the different terpenoids comes off at different temps that it is better to start out lower temp and then increase, but I never had much patience to do this with my v.tower. I have been trying it with my titatnium GH and my vape bong though, and it seems to be legit. What I like about my GH is that it does not leak vapor like my v tower does out the tube when I am not hitting it.
