aka vaporizer · vape pen

Vape (short for vaporize/vaporizer) refers to any cannabis device that heats material below the point of combustion, releasing vapor instead of smoke. Vapes include flower vaporizers, oil pens, carts, and disposables. Vapor is generally smoother on the lungs than smoke and produces less smell.

Example: Vaping THCA disposables is the most discreet way to consume.

Etymology: From 'vapor' — adopted into general language with the rise of e-cigarettes circa 2007-2010.
