Short Biography

My name is Mariano Bustmante. I’m in my late twenties and have been obsessed with Vaporizers since 2020, when I picked up my first Dry Herb Vape. Today, I use vaporizers daily and have found I tend to prioritize vaporizers with flavor-focused designs. Most of what I reach for are convection or convection-heavy hybrids, where you can actually tell the difference between strains instead of everything tasting the same after a few draws. Vaporizers have become my hobby and my work.

Background

I got into vaporizers after picking up a dry herb unit as an alternative to smoking. From there, I started trying different devices whenever I could get my hands on them, comparing and figuring out what actually made one feel better than another. When I started working at TVape, I got access to a plethora of Vaporizers of all kinds to try and experiment with.

Most of what I’ve learned came from using them in day-to-day settings. I also spent a lot of time pairing devices with water pieces like bubblers and the Iceborn, which changes how certain units behave and exposes weaknesses you wouldn’t notice otherwise.

What They Cover

At TVape, I focus on whether a vaporizer feels cohesive once you start using it daily. A good device is not just a set of features; it is how well those features support the same goal. When I test a new unit, I usually run it as my main device for at least a week to understand its limits and how consistent it actually is. That is where the real differences show up, not in the specs, but in how everything works together over time.
