Dry Herb Vapes: Just getting started...
Doom_Cough@kbin.social to 
Figured with the last few threads inspiring me to try out a dry herb vape. And I realized I knew nothing about it. But reading the manual and getting it going was easy. And I just experimented a bit and with temps. And apparently I landed in a pretty good sweet spot.
I will share some more of my experience, but I would like to hear some others more experienced takes on their usages, tips, tricks, favorite temps and getting the most out of it. Thanks!

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...
For the irritation issue, you can buy third party stems that are designed to cool the vape smoke down. Here are a few examples for the Rogue:
There are probably more options if you google around. I only looked at that Sneaky Pete store.
Great info and post. Thank you.
