I recently purchased the Blu electronic cigarette starter kit. E-cigs have a battery attached to an atomizer (heating element). The atomizer goes into a cartridge that holds liquid containing nicotine. I tried putting bud in that cartridge, but it didn't work. What if I cooked some bud in vegetable oil and put it in the cartridge? I'm pretty sure it would vaporize. Would your lungs absorb the THC? If this is possible, you could carry this around anywhere. No one would know that you were getting high right in front of them.

Im not sure about vaping weed oil, but I know about those electric cigs, and you can vape hash on them in the same way you were thinking of. Try finding some full melt or some honey oil.

I thought about that. It would be nice if it works with bud oil too. It would definitely be cheaper, and more readily accessible. Do you think your lungs would absorb the THC out of bud oil?

These Blu cigs are about the same size as regular cigarettes. I have bottles of liquid to refill the cartridges. It takes about 4 to 5 drops to refill a cartridge. Think about how much bud oil you could produce in just one batch; it would last forever. I have vaped these e-cigs on buses, planes, etc (places you're not suppose to smoke). There's no smell given off, and the vapor dissipates quickly. You could vape an e-cig filled with bud oil right in front of a cop and he wouldn't know. If your lungs can absorb the THC out of the oil, the applications are amazing.

Maybe its possible. I guess just look into the base with which they mix the nicotine into to fill the cartridges normally. If its an oil base then yeah its likely gonna work. However, my concern is that since you are exhaling a water vapor, the base isn't an oil and therefore the bud oil isn't gonna do the trick. I'm not an e-cig expert or anything but I would hate to see someone ruin their shit for no reason. If it works, more power to ya!

The only way I could see this working is with honey oil. I don't think you would really want to try vaping vegetable oil, and furthermore I don't think that the process of cooking down bud into a different medium yields a smoke-able material. I mean, by that logic you could smoke a weed brownie right? Your best bet would be the honey oil as it has an extremely low temp that it vapes at. If you've ever done honey oil off of foil, you only have to barely touch the flame to the bottom of the foil before the oil vapes completely in the flash of an eye.

There are two bases commonly used, PG and VG. VG is vegetable glycerin also known as glycerol. Here's an excerpt from Wikipedia, "Glycerol is also produced as a byproduct of refining of cooking and salad oils, and various brands (e.g, NOW) are sold to the retail market as "Pure Vegetable Source" glycerin, 100% pure, which is safe for ingestion." It sounds like it would work. If nicotine combined with VG is absorbed by the lungs, then I would think that THC combined with a "Pure Vegetable Source" would be absorbed. Right?

Shit man just go with the honey oil hash. There's stuff on the web on how to extract it, all you need is some trim or the will to strip good buds of their resins.

How long does a couple grams of honey oil vaporized last compared to smoking regular bud? What's it's viscosity.

I knew there was a way to make use of these Blu cigs to get high. I was stuck on the whole bud oil approach. I don't have much experience with hash. After researching honey oil, I thank you for the input. It seems like honey oil was the solution I was looking for this whole time. Does anyone recommend one extractor over another? The process seems pretty straight forward otherwise. Any links or help would be appreciated.

Dont try regular vegetable oil.

glycerin might work though

personally only method of making honey oil i know first hand to be effective is butane extraction, i'd explain it but i should probably go to sleep (early morning work) and google/searching this site should yield a bounty of info

I found plenty of info on making honey oil. I understand now the concept and procedure. People seem to stress using an extractor made specifically for this though; rigging your own is looked down upon. I also just read a post concerning the health risks on butane extraction. Any validity there? I'm just looking for some input.

Some butane contains harmful chemicals but personally Ive had no trouble with Ronson Lighter refills. As far as making an extractor, look into the soda bottle version. Its cheap, easy, and best of all it works. You can also use alcohol (Everclear) to extract the resins and not worry about harmful shit, but it needs to be a high purity alcohol with the least amount of water. Also, alcohol will produce a lower quality hash with more chlorophyll.

dont vape vegetable oil, you would definitely want to use an iso or butane extraction to get pure honey oil.

i think thc infused alcohol would work nicely

How thick is honey oil? I'm looking to put this in my Blu electronic cigarette. After all, it's basically a miniature vaporizer. I've watched a few YouTube videos on making honey oil. After scraping the leftover oil, people use a lighter to heat it up so it loosens and falls into a vile. Does this oil vaporize well or do you need a lot of heat? What's its thickness at room temperature?

Im not sure of thickness but the honey oil will vaporize almost instantly when you apply and good amount of heat. Honey oil is about as close to pure THC as you can get so it vaporizes clean, barely any tar residue. If your heating it with a lighter to make it flow easier, use indirect heat. The hot part of the flame will pretty much make the oil turn into vapor and its wasted.

Now that you mention it, the video I saw where a person used a lighter to loosen the oil from a razor blade showed that person moving the flame all around the oil. That fits with what you say about an indirect flame. Thanks for the info on residue too. That's important if I'm going to put it in my Blu cig. I hope someone will post on its thickness, though, so I know how pliable and easy it is to handle. One more thing, how much does vaporizing honey oil conserve over smoking regular bud. How many hits do you take of the oil compared to bud? I've read that an ounce of stems and bud make two to three grams of oil. How long does that oil last? An ounce of bud would last me about three to four weeks.

its stickier than honey. the viscosity is dependent on the temperature so if its cold its going to be alot stickier and harder to work with. if you have access to honey oil, i wouldnt even mess around with that fake cig, id just make a little oil burner and use that.

sounds like too much hassel to try and make the e cig work with bud

What's the viscosity at room temperature (i.e. 75 degrees). I'm hell-bent on making the e-cig work. I want to be able to vap anywhere I want, even in public. I've smoked this e-cig in restaurants, on buses, and even on plains. Imagine getting high 40,000 feet up.

at 75 degrees the honey oil will be very solid. think molases but stickier
