When herbs are smoked, unwanted combustion products enter the body, which have a harmful effect on one's health. If one doesn't burn a herb but heats it in a vaporizer, only the active ingredients are released. This has many benefits: clean on the lungs, stronger effect, better and smoother flavor and more efficient. This makes the Verdamper especially suitable for medicinal use.
The Verdamper vaporizer was developed by Evert, an enthusiastic Dutch cannabis user, who was looking for a purer experience, without tobacco. In 1995 his experiments with a hot air paint stripper and a bong gave him the idea of the Verdamper, after he noticed that the effect of this combination was not only purer, but also that it produced an activating, rather than tiring effect. This vaporizer is the result of many adjustments and further developments. The combination of a heating element and a robust glass bong make for the ultimate vaporizer. It vaporizes the active substances in herbs at 200°C (392°F). It is widely regarded as the best vaporizer there is.
This luxury edition is available in two sizes: 38 cm (15") and 45 cm (18") (measured without the heating element).
