Dry-herb vaping is the process of heating dry-herbs without actually burning it. Active ingredients within the herbs are released by the heat, creating a vapor that gets released into the air by the dry herb vaporizer. There is a lack of combustion, so there is no smoke inhalation. This is a healthier alternative to smoking herbs. Dry herb vaporizers are specifically designed to allow users to inhale without harmful smoke toxins reaching their lungs.

Electronic cigarettes (or e-cigarettes) are a handheld electronic device that simulates the feeling of tobacco smoking. It works by heating a liquid solution (known as e-liquid or e-juice) to generate an inhaled vapor with the appearance, sensation, and flavor of traditional smoking. The resulting vapor does not contain foul odor, tar or carbon monoxide present in ordinary tobacco. Smokers who switch to vaping can save thousands of dollars annually.
