I appreciate the consumer input in this forum. Refreshing to get some honest advice for once.

My question tho is whether or not the Fuji has a louder fan than the Volcano. I’ve used Volcanoes liked their low operational volume compared to others like a Vapir that feels like a lawnmower.

Thanks

Vape Now editors,

Can you make all this data and test results you are talking about available for everyone to look at? And could you give some specifics(how many parts does each have? what are those parts made out of?) instead of using vague terms like poorly and cheaply?

You said earlier the plastic melts? is that documented anywhere?

pretty much all the sorry ass’s that bought a volcano are sour because the phantom works just as well.

Post a link to the results please. Otherwise this is just nonsense, manipulative, propaganda.

i beleive the fuji is a health hazard in fact as a test i filled a bad at its highest temperature with no plant material and it smelled like toxic plastic, the bags themselves may be a hazard as well considering they melt slightly at its highest temperature. i would say if you own a fuji just try to keep the temp down and you should be okay. not everyone can afford the real volcano but if you can save up the money to do so i would choose the volcano. the fuji i played with stop working after about 3 weeks, the thing shorted on me and i was forced to ake it apart to fix it. now it isnt even able to reach quickly but eh it is much cheaper. all in all just buy what you can afford or just use a lightbulb lol they all have the same desired effect.

BS! Such BS!! I have owned a fuji for over a year now, and it works perfectly fine! I have taken it apart aslo. Sure, the case is made of plastic, but EVEN if the heat was intense enough to cause off gas, you wouldn’t be breathing it in. There is also a air pump inside which pumps air from under the vape up to the metal made holding case for the heating element. No off gas gets in your vape bag. Im picking up a phantom today, suggest you do the same if you planning on a volcano. save yourself some dough for the same damn results. Teh volcano is grossly overpriced. You have to know it didn’t cost near that much to produce it. (even with the metal outside case)In short, don’t buy into this marketing BS. Do whats right for your wallet. If volcano wants to match prices, id be more than willing to buy a little better quality vape.

Nope, our feelings about the Fuji are based on test results we’ve seen as well as actually taking one apart and seeing how poorly / cheaply it was made. We carry several lower price bag-style vapes than the Volcano, we’re not forcing anyone to buy it. But if we had to choose between a Fuji and Volcano, it’d be a Volcano every time despite the cost.

Yeah, it’s a safety hazard with the cheap plastic. The Fuji is so cheap because of crappy materials i.e. non temperature resistant plastics that can off-gas during use and it’s produced by a no-name company. If you’re hurt using it or it breaks, good luck trying to get the company to take responsibility. We recommend the name-brands that we carry because those companies stand behind their product.
