Oil Burner

Intro

The vape tool that catches the eye of every Dimitri newbie, who probably wonder why everyone else is using far more complex, harder-to-obtain, and vastly more expensive kit.

I first heard about the oil burner from an Adeptus Psychonautica video.  At the time, I was exclusively using "The Machine", but had concerns about its vape efficiency, and hoped the oil burned would be an improvement.  And maybe it was in some ways, but I found it even harder to obtain even the slightest shred of consistency, plus vapour harshness varied between extremely difficult to totally impossible to hold in.

I put serious effort into getting success from the oil burner and below I'll describe how I achieved the best, or more accurately, the least worst results.  But it wasn't long before I returned to "The Machine". Feel free to try out the oil burner, although I definitely don't recommend them and strongly suggest a high degree of expectation management.

Pros

• It kinda works, depending on your definition of it

• Can provide the full range of tripping intensity, albeit seemingly with almost lucky dip predictability

Cons

• Wickedly harsh vapour

• Very steep learning curve to get the best from it

• Hopelessly unpredictable trip intensity

• Requires an open flame as a heat source, almost impossible to toke lying down

• Inconvenient in use - needs pre-warming, open flame etc

• Awkward to place down after vaping
