The best part about going with the vape. Is that I can use it in my condo now. I never wanted to smoke in here because I didn't want to stink up the whole building. Even though some of my neighbors do occasionally. But I just don't want to be that guy and I also don't want to annoy my wife who doesn't like the smell..

She didn't notice when I did it in the other room. She didn't notice when I did it in the kitchen next to the living room. And then she didn't even notice when I was doing it on the couch next to her because she was on her phone instead of watching TV. So I'd say that's a win!

As far as sessions. I filled the bowl 3 times and just maxed out the timer (8min I think) and landed around 370 going from as low as 300 and as high as 450. Seems to jive with a few articles I skimmed. And that seemed to taper off flavor and effectiveness and the material seemed like a good used up brown. I've been collecting spent in another jar to see if I can use it for something later and inspection to see if I'm really getting the most of it.

So I will start with a few anecdotes. I normally smoke daily after work. A joint or two, couple bowls, etc. And I regularly vape oil cartridges in between times I can't smoke or just need to calm my anxiety.

I've never taken to the oils. Even with small hits it's always really irritated my lungs. Not that smoking doesn't, but nothing like this. Not to mention how many crappy carts I've had that leeched into the mouthpiece. Popcorn lung indeed. Ugh.

I hate to say, I kind of had a similar experience with the dry herb.

A little info on my lung health, I was a 20 year tobacco smoker, not herbs since HS. Quit tobacco 10 years ago. Started cycling, running, etc. So I have decent cardio, and smoking doesn't jive as much with this lifestyle, but you know... I don't enjoy edibles much. But I swear vaping is harder on my lungs or am I just doing it wrong?

I also got a massive headache, but I hadn't eaten anything all day until right after so...
