Vaporizing heats flower below the point of combustion, so you get the cannabinoids and terpenes without smoke. Convection heaters pass hot air through the herb rather than heating it by contact, which tends to mean better flavor and more even extraction.

The trade-off is the chamber. It’s small, packing it right matters, and grind consistency changes the draw a lot. Expect a learning curve.
