Vapir Air One 5.0 Vaporizer Overview

The Vapir Air One 5.0 is manufactured by Vapir, Inc.  The Air One 5.0 was first introduced to the vaporizer market in 2002.

The Vapir Air One 5.0 vaporizer is a hand held forced air unit that utilizes a ceramic housed, quartz crystal heating element and employs both direct inhalation and a balloon delivery system.

The Air One 5.0’s tubing, mouthpiece, and balloons bags are made of food grade polyester and plastic while the outer shell is constructed of a high-temperature nylon-fiberglass compound.

The temperature is shown in digital format, in either Celsius or Fahrenheit. This allows the user the ability to change the temperature display according to personal preference.

Vapir Air One 5.0 Vaporizer Ease of Use

The Vapir Air One 5.0 scored high in the ease of use department.
I found the optimal vaporization temperature to be between 370 and 380 degrees Fahrenheit.

Once the “Ready Control light,” turns from red to green.  Remove the herb disk basket and insert the herb disk into the basket to begin the Vaporization process.

The next step is to employ either the forced air direct inhalation feature or the balloon delivery system.  For direct inhalation, attach the x-tip mouthpiece to the FDA grade tubing.  Conversely, attach the balloon kit on top of the tubing to incorporate the balloon fill system.

The clear plastic tube is long enough to ensure convenience while also allowing time for the vapor to cool down before inhalation.

Vapir Air One 5.0 Heat Up Time

The digital LCD screen displays both the desired and actual temperature.  The ceramic housed quartz crystal heating element allows the Vapir Air One 5.0 to reach the optimal heating level in approximately three minutes.

Once the unit is turned off, a cool down period of 3- 5 minutes is expected.

it is recommended that the unit be placed in the “off” position after each use.

Vapir Air One 5.0 Efficiency/ Effectiveness

The Vapir Air One 5.0’s overall construction allows for an effective forced air unit that provides user satisfaction.

The specially designed herb basket ensures that there is maximum surface area available for vaporization, without having to continuously turn over the blend. A spare herb disk is provided for added time saving convenience.

A visible dense vapor is produced while using both the x-tip mouth piece or balloon delivery system.

Vapir Air One 5.0 Warranty

Each Vapir Air One 5.0 comes with a standard 90 day manufactures warranty that is restricted to normal use.  After the original warranty has expired, users can purchase an extended warranty through Vapir at a nominal charge.

Vapir Air One 5.0 Overall Satisfaction

I would recommend the Vapir Air One 5.0 vaporizer for consumers that want an efficient digital forced air unit at a very affordable price.

The dual function delivery features allow the option of vaporizing on a personal level with the x-tip mouthpiece or socially with the balloon delivery system.

Air One is Legit but Loud

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful
Even on the lowest setting the Air One is pretty loud. It's also a lot bigger than most people expect. But if you can get past that, it's my favorite bag vaporizer aside from the Volcano. I recommend this over the Extreme because of the price, but I'm also a function not form type of guy so take that to mean what you want it to.

I love my Air One

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful
I've had this unit for years and I love it. It works like it's supposed to, I can use it with the fan and a hose/mouthpiece or i can fill up a bag and share with my friends. The only issue that I've had is that the unit leaks a little, and it helps when I turn it upside down. i haven't had any real issues so I've never had to deal with the warranty. I love my Air One Vaporizer and would recommend it to all my friends.

Great buy and easy to use, gets the job done.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
Wow i really think this is a good deal. I have used other vaporizers before like the ez vape etc, but for the price this thing is very handy! It heats up so much faster than any of the other ones ive used and its very easy to tell what temp it is at. You can switch it from balloon to whip and its a lot more sturdy than most ive used as well. This is a great deal for 150.

Better than I though

1 of 2 people found the following review helpful
Im not going to lie, I have heard some very bad things about the Air One. I dont really want to go into detail, but it would talk just about everybody out of buying the unit, but not me. I thought to myself, "what if I am hearing only the negative things, and not the positive." After doing some more research, I purchased the unit. It total price was 150, with free shipping from GotVape.com. The unit was surprisingly good. It filled up the bags it came with, and it did its job. Any unit you purchase in that price range will be an entry leveled unit, and I think people mis-understood that and associated "entry level" with "low quality." Overall, I am satisfied. I have used better unit, but I have also used much worse units, so I cant complain.

Pretty Cool

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful
Overall This wasn't bad. When i got it in the mail it ended up being larger then i thought. I thought it was like the size of my hand but its kind of big for a hand held vape. But when i started to use it i started to care less and less about the size of the vape. It works really well although it does leak some times but im sure its because its plastic. Also when i first got it it did have like a weird smell to it but that went away.

The spa mask makes the air-one better

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
I reviewed about a vaporizer that I liked (the aroma basic) and here is my opinion about the one that I liked the least of the 5 vaporizers. It is the air-one. Now when this unit first came out it was great it had the the bag u could hit out of like the volcano, or you could hit it out of the tube with the mouthpiece tips. It had the digital display and was a top notch vaporizer, but I feel it has been surpassed by other units. However when I used the spa mask with the air-one it really took the air-one back up to a next level vape. The vape is very faint, but the fan which is strong on the air-one pushes it through into your lungs at a fast rate. You really get the full effect of the vapors with that mask. If you decide to get an air-one do yourself a favor and get that spa mask. It is highly recommended.

Not so great

0 of 1 people found the following review helpful
I've heard such great things about this unit. It's handheld, you can use a whip or a bag, it heats up quickly.
All these things are true, but its not a portable unit, its still attached to cord and its kinda heavy. The fan speed is really weak and takes a long time to fill up a bag. When you use the whip there seems to be an air leak or something because you dont get that much vapor. Overall it was just too much trouble and I would not recommend it.

what could be better?

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful
Ive been using this piece for over two years and havent had any bad experiences since i called the company and complained about the leaking and they told me the hose was in too deep . i replied that if the hose being halfway in is right , that was stupid because surely the vapor coming out the chimney needs to go immediately into the hose. After exspessing my doubt i said to leo(my smokin partner) go ahead and pull the hose out some so its barely in -- all i could say was OK! your right!! no more leaks and we,ve vaped so much we now have over 1 pound of revape for a cookie/brownie experiment. Love the hint about the turkey bags. the only downside for us is the bags became so sticky inside that we had to blow them up and press the air back out before inserting the tube or the machine wouldn,t blow them up so basically our bags are trashed with sticky thc juice so we just use the hose. As for some comments about being a good cheap machine i cant imagine what any other machine is doing that this one cant do. Hell, for 17.88 you can go to walmart and get a black and decker inverter to plug into a lighter and ride around vape,n all day thats how we roll.

Vapir Air One Vaporizer

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful
Hi all
I highly recommend this unit to anyone ever remotely considering the experience of vaporizing.
I basically fill disk half full set down with my stop watch set temp and under
15 min. I'm done. I first fill the bag then inhale when the green light is on.
after a while the unit auto cuts off which is the cool down process of 5 min.

I am bussed and have fallen twice from being so bussed. do not drive with this hede the warning.
I used to smoke with a corkscrew and the neighbors all knew when I fired up and now nobody knows. I do spray tag or what ever is on sell to also cover the smell with a good filter air cleaner.

Yes money well spent.

good budget bag vaporizer

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
this vape is great for people who can only afford a 150 dollar vape. however if you're willing a 250 herbalaire or a volcano vaporizer at 500 is much more worth it.

this vape does heat up with the disc in within 30 seconds, by far the fastest bag vape I've ever seen. it's pretty loud, but for the money I can deal with it. the most viable thing to do with this vape is purchase turkey oven bags to replace the bags that come with it.

I found after using these super huge turkey oven bags I'm using this vape as my full time piece until I get a volcano.

so, in essence: great budget vape, loud noise, effective and fast. it's all up to you at this point.

Things that make you go hmmmm!!

0 of 1 people found the following review helpful
This unit gives off a very good vape.. However at the beginning I found myself feeling like I was wasting my blend due to the fact that unit does have a leak in the design. So I did find that while I am vaporizing I need to hold it upside down. It eased some of the leak but not quite but other than that it works great. The ballons fill the way they should, and as long as I take long slow draws I still get a decent vape out of it.

If your budget is Low.

2 of 3 people found the following review helpful
The Air-One is not the best unit but it will get the job done. It is low in cost so you don’t have to worry about it leaving a big dent in your pocket. The heat up time is good but one of the major drawbacks is the noise and the smell it gives out. It is cool that the bags are sealable so I can take it on my travels. I also like the fact that it has a little disk for you to put your blends in. I would recommend this unit to someone who wants a bag unit but whose budget is not that high.

How important is convenience to you?

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful
First let me state the good things:

-It has a reasonable heating time.
-It's a very cheap forced air vaporizer
-The bag system is nice.
-The wide range of temps you can select allows you to find the 'perfect' vapor consistency.

Now for the cons:

-It's loud.
-While the heating time is good once the device is at the appropriate temperature you're by no means done.
-It takes a while for the bag to fill up.
-The biggest con is when you're done with your first bowl. You then have to take out the metal bowl (which is very hot) and wait for it to cool down before you can start another bag. (Mind you with a second metal bowl this process isn't THAT bad)
-Also it's recommended that you turn off the device when not in use (you have to stop to inhale the bag) which means you restart the entire process of setting up the temp, putting the bag at the end of tube and waiting for it to fill up.
-Another big complaint is that the entire process of heating the herb and filling up the bag is not always contained which means this vaporizer creates considerable more smell than other counter parts (it still doesn't smell like smoke mind you)

Conclusion: If you HAVE to have a 'forced air' vaporizer this is not a bad deal. It's cheap and similar in concept to a Volcano vaporizer. However in comparison to a hot box vaporizer this is FAR LESS convenient, is louder, and creates way more of a smell.

Luvs me my Vapir ONE!

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
I have had a Vapir ONE since I bought it late last year on Vapir's website and I have really had nothing but love for this unit. I had a BC Vape from way back when it first came out and it was a wast of money and overall just a really disappointing experience so I have been very hesitant to wade back into (what is now) the deep waters of vaporizers and all the choices out there.

The first thing I decided (given my past experience) is was I not going to spend a car payment on a vaporizer...I just don't think that is a wise investment of money. So I wanted to stay $200 or under and preferably closer to $100 total.

After much research I landed on the Vapir ONE, the price was right and from all the reviews it seems to do the same as many of the more expensive models out there. After taking it out of the box, I read the directions which were mostly easy and go it fired up right away. Inhaling from it was super easy and the vapor was nice and dense with a flavorful fresh vapor - I have had no complaints and look forward to a portable unit!

First Vape

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful
My first vaporizer was the Vapir Air One 5.0. For the price I paid the unit was definitely worth it. There is a fan that helps produces the vapors for you, a digital read out, and clear instructions. The unit allows you to choose between filling up bags or drawing straight from the whip. It is a great starter unit to experience the essence of vaporizing. I would recommend the unit to anyone who is new to vaporizing or on a budget.

Great Vape when modified!i`

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful
I get blowed with this vape everyday..There are some flaws on the air finding its way out of the cracks and the small bags but there are ways to fix this. For anyone thinking about buying this, first off, I do recommend buying. I also recommend taping up every crack you can find and around the disc tray. You will be amazed at the difference. For the bags, I threw those away and purchased reynolds turkey oven bags. I must say, after taking 6 of those bags to the face, I feel pretty damn good for a few hours. =) Bl4ze_0n

Vapir wow!

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful

When I first received my Vapir Air one I couldn't wait to try it out. I mean, after reading article after article about Vaporizers and the benefits of using one vs smoking. I just needed to try this thing out for myself.

At first I thought I must be doing something wrong because nothing was happening. Then, I got up to get a drink of water from the fridge and it hit me!

Hands down best purchase of 09
