Vaporizers Can Cut Your Annual Smoke Cost By Up To 83%
VaporStore carries only convection vaporizers (superior method opposed to conduction) which means fire or direct heat is not applied to any material during use. No fire means No combustion.
Rather than burning material, Vaporization extracts the active ingredient and leaves harmful by-products behind. This allows the user to draw out more of the active ingredient as opposed to burning it up right away, which wastes product and money because the smoker does not consume an adequate percentage of the active ingredient.
You will get 5-8 draws from a specified amount of material when vaporizing. When smoking, you barley get 1-3 draws while using the same amount. When smoking, most of the active ingredient is gone after the first draw as you lose 50% or more immediately as the flame touches the material. Again, burning up your entire product, damaging your throat and lungs and tasting a burnt/charred flavor vs. a fresh/smooth flavor.
Users will get from 89% to 95% pure, active ingredients using a vaporizer. If smoked, you are lucky to get 40%-50% of the ingredients with the same amount of product.
Vaporization is so efficient it evenly and adequately uses all of the material leaving little waste. What is left can be reused in many different ways (i.e., cooking). Smoking causes material to be burned and unused. Your stash and your cash literally go up in flames.

Get Active, Stay Healthy
Is your mind stronger than your body? Each puff on a cigarette sends nicotine to the brain within 10 seconds. Soon the brain’s chemical structure actually changes.
Pastime or Poison? Nicotine sulfate has been used as an insecticide. Nicotine, a component in cigarettes, is found to be as addictive as Heroine and Cocaine.
How much of your life are you losing? One cigarette reduces your life by 11 minutes. In 2004, a study was conducted that of those who smoked, and 40% had 15-24 cigarettes per day. Over a 10 year period that accumulates to over a year less of life!
Fiscal Effects: Smoking is not just deadly, it’s expensive. At one-half pack a day at $4 a pack, you spend over 700 dollars in a year!
Did you know? Vaporizers are designed to let users inhale herbal properties while avoiding harmful smoke toxins. They do so by heating herbs to a temperature 356° - 392° F, just below the point of combustion where smoke is produced. At this point, herbal properties are emitted with little or none of the carcinogenic tars and noxious gases found in smoke.
Vaporizing: The Healthy Alternative
Users who are concerned about the respiratory hazards of smoking are strongly advised to use vaporizers.
Did you know? One of the great dangers of smoking are the toxins in the combustion alone. Smoke contains: highly carcinogenic polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, which are very dangerous to the respiratory system.
Did you know? Alternative devices to vaporizers, such as waterpipes, have been shown to be ineffective at reducing the tars in smoke.
Did you know? When vaporizing, you are not burning all your material, it will last longer which saves you money and materials taste better, making consumption more enjoyable. No more offensive odors!
Did you know? The active ingredients sought after by smoking are more purely consumed when vaporized, which results in higher “yield” meaning more/stronger affect, making herbs more potent, causing you to use less during every session and over extended periods of time. Again saving money.
**Vaporizing is recommended by many physicians for patience who must medicinally consume herbs and vaporizing is the most effective way to practice aroma therapy. Vaporizing allows users to consume their desired herb or tobacco with no harmful side effects produced by smoking.**

Millions of Blackberry users in the US were left without their favorite drug from 8pm EST Tuesday to 6am EST Wednesday last week, when technical problems at service provider Research In Motion cut off wireless e-mail access. Some fumed, but others took a deep breath of relief. The brief escape was relished by a growing number of users who have realized that this digital leash often kills productivity instead of increasing it.
Not convinced? Let’s compare Blackberries to the top anti-productivity product of all-time: good old-fashioned marijuana.
In 2005, a psychiatrist at King’s College in London administered IQ tests to three groups: the first did nothing but perform the IQ test, the second was distracted by e-mail and ringing phones, and the third was stoned on marijuana. Not surprisingly, the first group did better than the other two by an average of 10 points. The e-mailers, on the other hands, did worse than the stoners by an average of 6 points.
In a digital world of infinite distraction, it is “single-tasking” — shutting out interruption instead of facilitating it — that will save us. What’s the alternative? Checking e-mail once every five minutes, then every minute, then every second? It’s not a scalable coping mechanism.
The world doesn’t hiccup, let alone end, if you check e-mail twice a day instead of twice an hour. If it does, it usually means that your work culture rewards overwork to counter its own ineffectiveness. This is predicated on burnout and not a game worth winning. The next time you get the Crackberry urge, consider the option of being productive instead of being busy. Or, if that’s too abstract, consider grabbing a joint instead — you’ll probably get more done.
