This thing, along with the GVG, is such a gimmick it's ridiculous, and the fact that people spend a lot of money buying these things because of marketing, is even more absurd.
It's quite easy to vaporize pretty much anything in a standard oil burner pipe (aka meth pipe) with a torch lighter.
And it's even easier to make a 1:1 leaf to DMT smoking blend and smoke it with a regular lighter and regular pipe.
Seeing everyone giving into this marketing gimmick annoys me, because I figured that on a website like this, people would be more intelligent.
I successfully vaporized a five milligram dose of 5-meo-dmt from my oil burner pipe rather easily my very first time using it, and there was no wastage whatsoever.
On the contrary, there is still some residual material left in the pipe which can be used later.

Its really not that tricky and the glass vg makes it so easy to clear a 50mg dose in one hit.

The absolute most important thing to do is to get a quality torch lighter. The ones in the 10-20 dollar range are a crap shoot to weather you will get one that always lights and will hold its flame. Spend the extra 20 bucks and get one that wont fail you.

Ive tried the leaf bed and ash bed methods. I think the easiest way is to just drop 6-8 screens down and do it straight. You can alter your trip with some different plants, but I recommend going with just dmt to start.

After you load your dose, get everything set up. Have your music ready if youre not blasting off in silence, be sitting on the edge of your bed or in a chair or couch. You will only have a few seconds of knowing anything after youve cleared 50mg.

Melt the dmt onto the screen then pull off. This will take about 2-4 seconds, it will allow the dmt to vaporize more quickly when you take your first hit.

Set the pipe down and take a few strong deep breaths. I like to take sips of ice water in the middle of each breath because while the vapor is nothing compared to other methods, it can still get a little hot. Then take a few very deep breaths and on the last one exhale almost all of the air out of your lungs and be prepared to inhale.

Start with the flame a few cm above the tip and adjust as you go. start inhaling very slowly, you may find that you want to inhale harder and faster to get more air, just inhale a short burst of air with your nose while keeping your mouth on the pipe. You will see thick white clouds of vapor being pulled down. Eventually, as youve inhaled the entire dose, the pipe will turn clear. At that point, i lay off the flame and continue inhaling until i cant. Set the pipe and the lighter down and start counting. I try to count to 20, but i typically never get past 5 because i cant remember how to count and i start to lose any sense of reality.

BGT's method looks solid. i only use a GVG and have for some time now....i have two main ways of starting my conversations.

let me begin by saying that i have 6 screens in my VG always...i also have a $60 pipe torch that is one of my most prized possessions ... grappling with a lighter that is failing, inconsistently working during an attempted journey....while all the while trying to remain "empty and open" is not fun and it only takes one of these frustrating experiences to make you never want to go through it again. it seems expensive now, but your pipe and your lighter are essentially your "keys" to the holiest temple you can dream of being in. drop the money....even if you have to fast for a week....in the end, it is BEYOND worth it. Stop Stop

1. put a couple scoops of strong changa in there, keep the torch flame just above the ceramic element, breathe deep and steady into your abdomen, watch the beautiful glass pipe fill with pure white magic, let off the flame when your lungs are 3/4 full and use the remaining 1/4 lung capacity to clear the pipe out entirely. hold as long as you can. be reborn.

2. if i want a pure spice journey, i simply lay a bed of dried peppermint leaf down and sprinkle the spice on top. sometimes i use lavender. sometimes mullein. one of these three as they are all so very soothing to the lungs/throat and have no psychoactive properties to color the journey in any way. personally, i find that peppermint is my most common go-to although if i have the time i'll put a little of each in my grinder and make a little "bed blend". same technique as above only- since you can see through the GVG, i like to take a shallow, small inhale with the torch applied to "pre-melt" my spice into the leaf. then i stop, take a couple deep breaths , blow my last one out completely and THEN take my full dose. much like BGT described.

another thing to remember with your GVG- clean it often with 99% ISP or acetone and evap your "cleanings" on a little glass dish. there's always some VERY active oxide residue that you can add to another load down the road. waste not, want not... Pleased

enjoy your GVG brother! it's simply the best tool for the job out there.....if you wind up spending $150-$175 for it and a high-quality lighter, trust me....it will pay for itself over the years.....this setup will last forever and only be dearer and more "powerful" as time and collective journeys go on....

MUCH LOVE AND GRATITUDE!!

Im really greatfull for the help. I decided to move to GVG but it will take some time before i get cash for it. I will spend the time for meditation and self improvement. Don't want to stress more with bad technique using VG and waste my precious crystals.

I have a few questions for whomever would like to answer please.
1.) Can, or should, the GVG be used with a micro-torch lighter (the small ones which you just push down on a button and a hot blue flame comes roaring upwards)?
2.) Can the GVG be used with a regular bic lighter as well, and if so, which one would be better?
3.) Does the GVG require lots of maintenance, such as taking every piece apart and cleaning them individually?
4.) Is it possible to screw up in using the GVG where the metal screen inside accidentally gets burned, and if so, what would one do to fix this situation?
5.) Can 5-meo-dmt be vaporized from the GVG?
6.) Can enhanced-leaf blends be vaporized from the GVG?
7.) Can shatter be vaporized from the GVG?
8.) If using more than one substance, does the GVG need to be cleaned between switching different substances?
9.) How many times can the same substance be vaporized from the GVG before having to clean everything?
10.) Can the Glass Bat by Vapor Genie be used as an effective means of vaporizing tryptamines?
Thanks and have a great day

I put torch lighter on the pad and wait couple of sec so it drops from temperature a bit. Then i put white powder on it so it melts inside.

I was sure that there will be a cloud visible when smoking it but from what you say the vapor is transaprent so this seems alright. Also i have been starting from preheating the ceramic filter with circle motion and then started to slowly inhale with adding the flame close to it (the longer i had the toke i was putting my fire away). From what you say seems i should do the opposite so will try this also.
