A safe modern take on Shisha
Finally! After waiting for a reputable UK seller to start selling these, I ordered a unit to see if it was as good as promised. The big plus for units like this is you no longer have to deal with charcoal, which even when done correctly runs you the risk of including some pretty nasty carcinogens being pulled into your lungs with heavy drags, even with things like coconut charcoal( check out journal articles on this on pubmed)
The seller did an excellent job of packing it, but the product itself was safe and very well packed. There was a professional finish to the whole thing, from box to product. The first of many pleasant surprises was the fact that this product is battery powered and rechargeable, which means your shisha setup no longer has to deal with annoying cables hanging from it from the start. A charge lasted a full 2 hour smoking session with juice to spare.
Using it was very intuitive, although it did come with an instructions manual(READ THIS BEFORE YOU START TO MAKE SURE YOU DON'T DO ANYTHING TO DAMAGE THE UNIT) I figured I'd really field test this, so I did almost everything wrong that I could after using it for an hour correctly. I cleaned it with water, put the fluid in the wrong place, pretty much everything short of submerging the electrical components of the shisha head in water. The result was slightly acrid but still completely safe smoke, and considering you can replace the one part that doing all this damages it's pretty damn reasonable.
The quality of the smoke does of course depend on what you use. I prefer the professionally made kits but have made my own in the past. However the smoke thickness and taste was superb, great thickness of clouds as you would expect from something like an eshisha pen but with all the grandeur of your own shisha head.
So in conclusion, read the manual once(it takes 2 minutes, really!) and then enjoy some easy to set up shisha with your friends!
