What do you guys think of this? I know it doesn't cost much, but has anyone tried it and think it's worth it?

thats the same thing as the lightbulb vaporizer it looks like. a lightbulb, bottle cap and tube would make pretty much the same thing.

that looks like a commercialized meth pipe to me.. heh. i never tried smoking hash or bud out of one...but i'll show you how to make one of those with just a light bulb, a butterknife, a fork, and a straw.

i think it would be a waste to buy one. first it's so easy to make one. second if you are a social smoker it is not something convenient to pass around for many reasons. lastly if you like to smoke, inhale smoke that is, more than likely you will be disappointed.

Bongs longer than 24" suck, imo.

Except as novelty. Stair bonging is cool, sometimes. 
... for regular usage, though, indeed, tres suckay.

Yea, a six foot bong would be a bit much for my dorm. I was just looking into an cheap/easy vaporizer, and this looked close enough. Is it safe to smoke out of a light bulb? I've seen instructions on it, and the whole straw thing didn't seem too safe either. What would I need a butterknife and fork for?

haha... I didn't think you'd take me seriously, and this is for educational purposes only...i take no responsibility for whatever you might do with this info...heh. i know nothing about the safety of this method of smoking..i learned it when i was smoking meth so obviously health concerns weren't my top priority at the time. but anyway here it goes...
you get a regular incandescent light bulb... now look at where it screws into the socket. on the very bottom, you'll see a small round metal part (NOT the threaded metal area that screws the bulb in, farther down) and you'll see some dark black or purple glass there too. i use a butterknife and fork because it's always been the most convenient tools. take the handle end of your butterknife and tap on that dark glass until it breaks enough for you to get the metal piece between the prongs of your fork. yank that metal piece out and clear out the dark glass...now yank the filament out also.. clear out the glass inside of the threaded metal area as much as you can with your fork by bending one of the prongs of the fork forward, but make sure not to dislodge the threaded metal piece from the rest of the bulb or it becomes useless. once you have all your glass cleared out and the filament is gone, you can move on to where we clean that frosting off the inside of the bulb...get some table salt... pour a quarter size mound of salt into the bulb, cover the hole, and swish and shake that salt around and the frost comes right off..try to dump all the salt back out when the frost is gone. now you're ready to smoke something out of the device...
now, like i said, i'm not sure if you can really get any use out of this with buds or hash (if i had some i would try myself)... you'll want to use indirect heat though, or the bulb will likely break in your hand. don't let the bulb get too hot..it's best to use the threaded part of the bulb between your thumb and your finger, hold your lighter steady under the bulb, and roll the bulb back and forth over the flame. you can use whatever tube you have available to get the smoke/vapors out.

Yes, it works: the overgrow version, with pictures - you will notice it looks almost exactly like "the smoke bubble" and for about $15 cheaper

smoking through a light bulb sounds shady. if you want a vaporizer look up the Vampir. my friend has one and it works good. its funny because it come with a DVD manual which is a knockoff of the matrix. it will never totally replace smoking

If you're just looking for something simple to smoke out of get a dugout that has a cigarette piece with it, they'll usually run you $8-15 but perfect for dorms because it looks like you're smoking a cigarette, just break the weed up in the dugout part, dip the cigarette in and smoke

I have a glass bowl and a few homemade bongs, but I was looking for a cheap yet healthier/more efficient? method of smoking. I'm not really entirely concerned with being covert.

Probably. I mean, it's basically a base pipe. I'll let you know when my mimosa is done
