I'd say see if there is any way you can try a cape, any good one, first. My volcano is indeed fantastic, but vaping is not my cup of tea, not fussed at all about a 300 pound item gathering dust, as its always gonna be there if I need it, but it is indeed gathering dust, its a very different high, and to me, an inferior high to actually smoking it. As with above posts of mine though, just individual and personal preference.
