It sound like a possible faulty connector,im not to familiar with the volcano as i use the herbalaire 2.1. i would contact the makers of the volcano to see if anyone else has come across this problem.

Hope you get it sorted i love my vaporizer & i was so glad i could introduce another RY member to the benefits of vaping.

Great news and good karma for the company. The best way to attract new customers is to treat your current ones like they matter to you.

In the meantime you may want to try wiping down the parts to the mouthpiece. If a cloth won't do it than maybe a bottle brush from the local dollar store.

I would suggest rubbing alcohol on anything but plastic as I've learned from experience that it will dissolve some plastics used in the tobacco pipe industry. Naturally as it comes in a plastic bottle there are some that are resistant to it but I've seen a small waterpipe go from mint to cracked & crumbling in 3 iso washes.

I don't have a 'cano, but it stands to reason that a bit of oil and a few crumbs of shake could be keeping the mouthpiece from properly sealing.

For the price of what they actually sell? They damn well better replace what breaks on it, for life. Their profit margin on that must be iiiimpressive!!

When you want to change your bags on the cheap, I hear that turkey bags for ovens are the same stuff and work fine.

Oven bags work quite well. On the older analog volcano they also use security head fasteners and a truly poorly designed set screw assembly on the temperature control knob. Other than those minor annoyances the machine works well and the distibutor is local so service is great.
