DIY poormans vaporizer 12 volt 50 watts halogen

[bonobo]

hi

take a brick drill a hole to fit in the halogenlight
than drill a hole from the small end to a few cm of the other hole .
and drill a last hole at the top of where the second hole ends inside the brick.
thats where you put in the tube .

this vaporizer needs a heat up time of a 10 minutoos .
when i vape a half filled bowl i m high for more than 4 hours .
i love this vaporizer .
and its clouds makes me happy high

Very cool dude. Who knew something so heavy would get you so high

that is a sweet diy'er nice to hear its working well for you !
I am thinking you can tweak it a bit to make it work even better.

You could try placing the light bulb over the weed so you draw warm air over it to vaporize it.
It might work with screen inside the brick then weed then the light source over top of it , could even use two bricks...

I like your light source heater ! good one

hello@24 hours

i have tried it all and i want to make it with a kind of glasbowl because copper is nt very safe when its heated .
i am still working out the distance between the light and the weed .
a second brick is a good idea i want to give it a try .
if i let it heat up a long time it gives bigger vaporclouds and i use a lot of screens in this bowl to spread the heat .

here the first diy vaporizer i made

High purity copper is probably safer than glass in most respects, particularly for home made vaporizers. Pure copper (or rather the protective inert copper oxide/CuO molecular coating on its surface) is as non-toxic and safe, including when exposed to air or water and heat, at it comes. Copper has been used for water supplies, cooking, brewing, coins, etc. for 1,000s of years. Glass is a complex impure variable mixture of silica and many other inorganic materials and metals. The melting and boiling/vaporization points of copper are significantly higher than glass, including pyrex/borosilicate glass. Physically, glass is inherently brittle, prone to breakage, also flaking/delamination, particularly if heated/cooled (even if pyrex). Glass flakes and delamination are a rarely discussed problem, and even affects the mainstream pharmaceutical industry (e.g., see http://www.contractpharma.com/issues/2013-06/view_features/glass-flakes). And keep in mind, the glass could now well be made in China (now including Pyrex brand) or other developing country.

Copper is solid, homogeneous, comes in known high purity alloys (which are numbered, meet standards; go for the electronic grades), can be easily worked/shaped, and is not going to break. Glass is breaks, can't be shaped, is not pure, its composition/type is rarely known and increasingly questionable, and can be low quality. I'd rather vape out of copper than glass. Various marketed vaporizers use copper.

And if you still don't want to use copper, consider stainless steel.

Although I haven't been active on it recently, I'm confident if you check out fuckcombustion.com (vaporizer discussion group) you'll find threads about copper being perfectly acceptable for vaporizers.

Very cool, that last picture makes it look quite Rube Golbergian!
