SSS Vs Cloud 9 Vs VAPR – Which is Best?

I know SSS is considerably cheaper, and requires some “DIY”, which is definitely my forte. I do much prefer something I can use straight out of the box; however, I am not exactly rolling in money either, so from that respect, SSS looks good.

What are your thoughts on the pro’s and cons of these three devices/methods of producing “mysterious, magical, smoke”. – Many thanks  DB

Hi Darren,

If you like making things SSS is great as you will be able to fix anything if there is an issue and you are in control of refills etc, and not rely on stock being available from suppliers. SSS is taught as a gimmick for a table mat, but it doesn’t take a genius to change the gimmick and remove the close up mat and make it go down your sleeve to make a smoke device for your hands. As SSS stands for a silent sleeveless smoke this is not taught in the tutorial.

VAPR is great, however, when the heater coil burns out you will have to reorder from a shop and so you are reliant on the shops having the stock available, that goes for the refill cartridges too. Plus the price tag is the highest of them all.

Cloud 9 is great, but it is best used for dispersing smoke somewhere other than your hands, it is possible to be used on your hands but other smoke products are better for this.

Summery:

SSS Cheapest, and good for people that are happy with DIY and modification.

VAPR Most expensive, works out of the box, easy set up, but refills are expensive.

Cloud 9 The best for smoke needed away from your body. Fully adaptable.

I hope this helps, do you have any specific questions you wish to have answered? Post them in the comments section below:
