We use a Vapor Brothers vaporizer that we've had for over ten years. They're not cheap, but they're made well. We use vape pens with a push button for oil cartridges. And for hash, we attach a Cloutank to the push button vaporizer.

About vaping: There is an adjustment period when you switch from smoking, but it's a short one, and the benefits are SO worth it. Smoking raises your blood pressure and heart rate, and many of us, especially long-time cannabis users, have come to associate that physical sensation with the high kicking in, and have used that as a cue to gauge whether or not to stop or keep going. With vaping, the cue is missing. It is possible to take in more than you need and not realize it right away. I recommend giving yourself a minute or two between puffs, at least until you are experienced and know exactly what kind of dosage you need.
