Note that the black vape on the right in the photo is very much unlike the other two. It’s a dry herb cannabis vaporizer —- oddly, one of the very few that’s a certified medical device. (it’s a storz and bickel crafty) There’s a vast difference between concentrate/ejuice/distillate vapes and something like a crafty. It would be nice if the two categories of vapes could be separated more cleanly when discussing health effects because it would separate a lot of the variables.

Yes, flower vapes are not even in the same realm. What do you expect from 'Gizmodo', though? Surprised this isn't a banned source. Have people forgot Gawker so quickly?

IIRC the crafty itself is not medically certified but S&B at one time did have a medically certified version.

  they sell separately coded crafty/mighty/volcano. They hit slightly lower max temperatures, and you can claim them as medical devices; they’re otherwise identical to their non medical counterparts. S&B makes awesome gear; i just prefer on-demand.

Agreed but I wouldn't try to infer from a stock photo to the substance of the story. The vast majority of vapes used, especially those by young adults and teens, are not black vapes.

  It clearly says in the story they had all vaped 'THC', AKA a catch all term these days for dodgy shit. More than likely, given how this hasn't happened in the rest of the WORLD, they vaped something extremely dodgy that they knew was dodgy. if you need me to spell this out for you, this has NOTHING to do with vaping and everything to do with dodgy drug dealers.

    Yeah this smells like “someone bought a street cart”. You can buy unfilled 510 carts that claim to be Brass Knuckles or any other major brand, on alibaba, for pennies. Fill it up with whatever you want. pro tip, don’t buy carts unless it’s from a dispensary. And even then, flowers nicer :)
