How to vape with a Yocan?

You can get pens like the AtmosRx, AGO Vaporizer, and Yocan pens to vape through convection by suspending your dry herb above the heating coil (possibly with a brass or metal mesh screen). The trick is to inhale slowly while heating up the chamber. This causes the hot air to slowly heat up the herbs and release vapor. You can also just heat it up without inhaling and wait for the right time to inhale (around 30 seconds still). The only problem with this method is that A) it's a pain to place the mesh filters at just the right height and B) if the filters fall onto the heating coils, it could short-circuit the device and ruin the battery.

Combusting is not vaping. However, almost all e-cigs that claim to be portable dry herb vaporizers simply combust herbs. This includes popular devices, such as the Atmos Raw Rx, AGO Vaporizer pen, and devices by Yocan just to name a few. If you look at how these vape pens work, it's not hard to see why this is the case: the devices light herbs by directly exposing them to a heating coil. The heating coil may as well be an open flame--much higher than 450°F--which ignites and burns the herb just like any normal pipe. The only way to prevent direct contact safely is by using a glass screen filter, which prevents combustion by acting as a barrier between the herbs and heating coils. This takes us to our next topic: vaporization through conduction.

lorikay13 Unregistered Supplier ECF Veteran

A simple tech question....since I want to be able to vape while in the hospital as well as have my husband be able to vape....is there any possibility that an e-cig could produce a spark that would ignite compressed oxygen??? (yes...we do plan on being stealthy...no sense creating a problem.....but hell no we are not going to go outside and stand with the analogs!).

Davo Super Member ECF Veteran

Good question, you wouldn't want to set Ox off, but however... although these devices are electric (electronic) the power source is only approx 3.7 volts and little change of spark production, even at a dead short. Static would be a worse problem. Having said that and the risk involved i.e. hospital...

I can't see the PV being anymore dangerous as using a cell phone or electronic games. Even so, until someone who knows what they are talking about says it okay, I'd refrain.

AirNerd Senior Member ECF Veteran

I thought about this the other day while fuleing up my car...as the sign on the pump reads "DO NOT USE CELLPHONES AT PUMP" and wondered "what is going on insid an e-cig.

boondongle Super Member Verified Member ECF Veteran

Any electronic device can potentially spark. If you're in an environment where any electronic device is dangerous, then I wouldn't use a vaporizer.

Adrenalynn Vaping Master ECF Veteran

In theory - yes. However - devices designed and certified for IP*x environments are properly insulated against exposing that spark though. When we were installing cameras in a cereal production facility, we even had to use aluminum conduit. If someone nails aluminum conduit with a forklift - it won't spark like EMT or Rigid/Steel.

Nomdo Senior Member ECF Veteran

Oxygen + Energy source (spark/flame) + Fuel needed to start fire... The higher concentration of Oxygen, the better the chance of something igniting.
