i think some googleing will get you all the info you need. i have a home built vaporizor bong, its basicly a thin glass crack pipe with extra holes in it. i think its better then smoking, you get less tars and shit, and i find that it gives a cleaner high. if you are looking to buy one deffinatly get the kind that uses hot air flowing through what ever you want to vaporize, the conduction ones kina suck.

A vaporiser uses a heat source to heat marijuana without burning it, rather vaporizing it. THC boils at 392 degrees F, so if it is heated to 400 F the THC boils and produces a vapor. This is not hot enough for it to burn so it does not produce the toxic products of burning.
The vapor is not as harsh on the throat (though the taste can take some getting used to). A recent study found that water filtration systems are worse for the lungs than joints! This is because they increase the amount of tars in the smoke per unit of THC (thus one must inhale more tars to get the same amount of THC). This same study found that ONLY VAPORISERS contain less tar per amount THC than joints!
