Old Reviews IoLite Portable vaporiser

[BayLee420]

Gonna harvest my Short Riders soon. Took a small bud off the other day for a taste test. The Iolte is perfect for pre harvest testing. Give the bud an overnight dry. Chop it up good and load the Iolite and vape. May have a slight green taste at 1st, but as she heats up that goes away. Got good and stoned on my 1st taste test. Couch lock with a nice warm head feel. That Shorty bud was just 60% cloudy. Can just imagine what the real deal is.

If anyone wants to do a pre harvest taste test. Iolite it....:spark:

welcome to the club!

thank you donkeykong for this great thread. :thumbs:


after reading it i decided to buy an iolite myself. and i must say:
that thing is the shit!!!

so easy to handle and the best smoking experience i've had in my life up to date.

when smoking my polarlight #3 through my ghetto crack pipe it tastes ok, but not overwhelming, mostly like hash. the vaporizer unleashes all the terpenes, so it tastes like heaven. fruity, sweet, spicy haze... unbelievable.

it also is a very clear experience with all the garbage staying in the combustion chamber.

after trying the vaporizer, i will never ever smoke without one again, if possible.


start vaping, people! you won't regret it!

I've had my Iolite for two months now - and I absolutely love it.

I did my research - and wasn't interested in a battery operated unit.

I spend a large portion of my free time in the bush - hiking, mountain biking, boating, fly fishing, mushroom picking, camping, guerrilla gardening and dog walking.
The ability to recharge from a can of compressed, purified butane is a huge plus. No worries about running out of juice before your day - weekend - or week is done, and no worries about how it will respond to sudden, heavy rain.

I've had zero problems with my Iolite - it has worked for me (and worked very well) in every instance, with only one caveat. When I'm mountain biking a rough trail with the Iolite in my pack - if I stop for a "top-up", I often have to wait two or three minutes for the gas to settle down before lighting, or it won't burn smoothly.

Hardly a problem - and my dogs enjoy taking 5 to catch their breath and check the area for any opportunity to tree a bear or chase a deer.

I think I can sum it up by saying that since I purchased my Iolite two months ago - I haven't once put fire to my bud!

Hi everybody, I'm Stealth grower and I am too a recovering tobacco-holic lol


I have given up tobacco over a month ago just by getting wasted with the iolite instead... And by wasted, I mean wasted..! Anybody else finding that vape'n gets you at least twice as stoned as when you had/have a spliff?


I have had many goes and want to pass on some tips to any users.


1. Do not give up on the iolite if you are not getting on very well using it. Just a few simple changes... If you are using it and it needs cleaning, it can still work by toke'n very slowly on it, almost as slow as you can toke. Vapour really comes through then. The more frustrated you get with these, the less vape you will get...


2. When you heat it up, let it heat up the weed twice, before you have your 1st lug!


3. Only take it apart when it's hot so it doesn't stick when you undo it and damage the iolite. Get the cloth ready 1st, very easy to clean when it's hot.


4. Every so often, let it run out of gas, then completely refill it. Totally agree with above post that the gas needs to settle down. Even after filling it up I always give it a minute or 2.


5. Imo the mouth piece extender works better in the first 60-70% of the vape'n session, I then remove it for the last bit.


6. This experience lol last for ages, do yourself a favour and get 1pint of Tropicana ready, or a large mug of tea!!! lol




I do like the iolite, but it is all I'm using... I bought an acrylic double bubble bong and it is foul lol. I had one bong, coughed my lungs up, washed it out and stuck it back in the cupboard. Man that was some harsh, hot lung work lol.


The iolite Is very smooth, just want something else for when I'm at home. The volcano is tempting, but a bit pricey... What is the coolest (temps wise) glass bong in the world?
