I have been looking into dry herb vaping as a reusable some what healthy way to consume trees but I have seen some mixed reviews. Some say that vaping is even more potent that combustion while others claim that most dry herb vapes suck and only giant ball vapes can compare to a bong hit. Is it purely subjective or are there ways to figure out what is a worth while rig before buying it?

But i wouldn't expect to get massive clouds off sipper vapes like a mighty, crafty, mflb, vmax, potv one, etc.

While generally true I've gotten some pretty thicc clouds off my potv one with a long draw. Regardless, a couple hits from my Arizer xq2 or my potv one get me pretty solidly high even if I'm not getting big ol clouds.

Agreed, im just not sure what OP referes to as a "bong like hit". Potv and Arizer xq(1 and 2) can produce some nice clouds, same with my mighty through a bong. But they are still lacking in fast vapour production from ball and injector style vapes. But thats just my experience with the vapes i own.

Literally only complaint with them! My One doesn't take too long but my first hit is always low vapor. The Arizer takes a hot minute to heat the flower up. Once it's going though it's my favorite way to smoke.

I let my XQ1 heat up for 5 or 10 mins, then pack the little corner screen and connect the whip to my bong and I can get decent bong hits at 230C. It's the first vape I've had that actually works with my bong and gets me baked like smoking through my bong. The downside it that it takes so long to heat up to the point where bong rips can be had.
