Da Buddha Vaporizer - Review

I got my Da Buddha on Wednesday (ordered from VaporGiant Monday - standard shipping) and tried it out last night. So far so good.

The carrying bag it came in has already been tossed out.  It perfectly functional, I just cant deal with the pink zebra stripes...besides, if someone saw that sitting somewhere they're definately going to ask "WTF is that" .  They should have just made them solid black.

Ordered the standard silver model but got the black one at no extra charge.  I do like the black, but I don't like the buddha logo.

Gets hot enough to vape very quickly, 1-2min.  Had it at 3/4 power to start but after 10min or so I had to start turning it down as the herb was turning black.  1/2 power seems to be the sweet spot on mine after warming up a bit.
 
Took some small hits at first to get a feel for the draw and effect.  Was a little disappointed after the first bowl (3-4 small hits)....wasn't feeling much.  I packed a second, and milked it until I got a monster hit.  I realize it's "vapor" but this stuff still had me hacking a bit - kinda like a hack from a water pipe hit but not as uncomfortable and it passed very quickly.
 
This monster hit went straight to the dome. Very satisfying. The high does seem to be more heady...I was vaping some heavy indica and it didn't knock me out like i'm used to.

I'm digging the hands free also, but I should really buy a spare wand or two. I'm certain the day will come when someone pulls on the whip and the wands will pop out and break on the table.

Overall: I am a very satisfied customer. 7th floor knows their stuff. This is a perfect vaporizer for anyone who's looking for a whip vape or who is on a budget. I love how convenient this little thing is.

Rating: It gets a 8.5/10 for me :). I'm in love with this thing, I might never go back to combustion again.
