What is the VaporGenie?
The VaporGenie is a portable vaporizer powered only by a lighter or wick. Like any vaporizer, the VaporGenie heats up your material to the point of vaporization and not combustion. That is to say that your material heats up just enough to release essential essences, but not hot enough to combust or smoke.
The VaporGenie is unique because it uses a flame to be used to heat up the air, which gets blocked by a ceramic filter.
How does it work?
Apply a flame just above the ceramic filter and draw air in slowly on the mouthpiece end. The ceramic filter heats up but protects your material from the flame. The hot air passing through the ceramic filter passes over your materials to create a vapor.
Construction of the VaporGenie
The portable VaporGenie classic is primarily made of wood that is finely sanded and sealed with a natural varnish for a nice finish. It's made without glues or adhesives, and no toxic chemicals. Just about every piece of the VaporGenie is made in the USA.
The Genie's ceramic filter is composed of a high purity silicon carbide, known to be one of the most heat resistant and inert ceramics available. This type of ceramic contains no metals, which ensures a clean taste and vapor. It's also very rugged and never requires replacement, just clean if it gets dirty.
The metal parts in the VaporGenie are either stainless steel or chrome plated. The screen and bowl/dish are both stainless steel.

first vaporizor Review by hyperballjr on 4/24/13
Ease-of-Use Value Quality Pretty good product with great value. Been using this piece for about a month now. So far its been good. I can definetly tell a difference in quality ;) I don't even use my [other devices] anymore. This is definetly a poor man's vaporizor. I would recommend it anyone who is looking for a portable unit that doesn't require batteries.

Not Bad Review by Jeremy on 4/15/13
Quality Ease-of-Use Value Works great!! No heating element to go out, works with any cheap BBQ lighter. Suggested not to use with a flint lighter. Will have VapeGenie for year to come.

Best thing I ever spent 50 bucks on Review by Sara on 1/30/13
Ease-of-Use Value Quality This piece is amazing. The only problem I have with it is that I can't light it outdoors, and most of my friends can't figure out how to hit it...but I blame that on their stupidity and not the genie. It is a great thing to have, hits smooth, tastes good, and seems pretty durable - I've had it for about 5 months, and it has been through a lot and still works. Don't ever let someone smoke out of it without the top on though, it will never taste quite right again. I have had 1 mouthpiece break off inside of the genie, so I suggest grabbing the extra parts. Cheapest, most reliable portable vaporizer on the internet.

nice price Review by dev on 11/29/12
Value Quality Ease-of-Use i could see how someone new to vaping could have problems using the genie... i could see how not knowing exact temperatures could hurt your experience ... but if you need a device that doesn't require electricity this one could work for you.... just got to learn to control the heat with your breath and a lighter all at once... if you can do that than this product will cause extreme happiness

best hitting portable vaporizer out there Review by Randy on 2/29/12
Quality Ease-of-Use Value I have tried several of the portable vaporizers both lighter powered and battery powered, and I find that the Vapor Genie will give the best vapor hit without scorching your material. Only a small learning curve is required to get the hang of using the lighter properly, and learning the proper taste and sensation in your mouth while taking the hit. For me it was love at first hit!!!

Great, especially for the price. Review by VG Fan on 1/29/12
Quality Ease-of-Use Value I purchased a VG because I wanted a portable vape, but didn't want to pay 2x this amount for a MFLB. The VG looks and feels like a very well-made product. The construction is great and it feels solid when you hold it. I accidentally dropped it onto a hard surface once and there is no damage whatsoever. It has a lifetime warranty, but it's not as amazing as MFLB's warranty. (Check out VG's site for more info) Using the VG requires a small amount of technique, which can be mastered in a few hits. I did read about it before trying to use it, but I have also taught friends how to use it and they were pros after a couple hits. I only gave it 4 stars for Ease-Of-Use because you do need to use a lighter. I found that using a grill lighter was the best option, since it doesn't use flint (the makers of VG say not to use a flint lighter), they produce a strong flame (1 inch is good), and they hold a lot of butane. If you want to use a more portable lighter, any electric-ignition lighter will do. (Pipe lighters are the best for this) Besides that, it's a great product. It produces large vapor clouds (with good technique) and conserves your tobacco amazingly. The vapor tastes good and barely produces any odor. If you're trying to vape on a budget, this is a great choice, as long as you are okay with using a lighter.
