Important health notice: VapoManiak is not a physician or healthcare professional. All content published on vapomaniak.pl and VapeFully is strictly educational and informational — based on years of hands-on experience and physical device testing.

Vaporizers are intended exclusively for adults (18+).
Who is VapoManiak?
VapoManiak is the pseudonym and personal brand of an independent professional vaporizer reviewer. Since 2016 he has run vapomaniak.pl — a comprehensive knowledge base on vaporization, vaporizers and safer herb inhalation. As VP of the company High Experts sp. z o.o. he oversees VapeFully's editorial content and is responsible for product selection — no vaporizer enters the store without his verification.
Before becoming a professional reviewer, VapoManiak built a solid academic and professional foundation that now informs his analytical approach to testing. He studied international relations at Collegium Civitas in Warsaw and strategic studies at the Jagiellonian University in Cracow (Poland). He worked in publishing, online marketing (including at Onet.pl) and in a copyright collective management organisation. This blend of humanities, marketing and content creation gave him a unique skill set: critical analytical thinking, familiarity with international markets and professional SEO content creation.
Beyond vaporizers, VapoManiak is a passionate fan of travel near and far, good food and cooking. When not testing the next device he is probably experimenting in the kitchen, planning his next trip or bingeing a new series.
Experience and Testing Methodology
VapoManiak's first vaporization session took place in 2011 — with the legendary stationary De Verdamper in Amsterdam, followed shortly by the iconic Volcano by Storz & Bickel. From 2015 onward, vaporization became his sole method of herb consumption: after quitting smoking, inhaling any kind of smoke became unbearable. In 2016 he launched vapomaniak.pl; in March 2017 the YouTube channel (first video review: PAX 2). In the summer of 2018 he made a life-defining decision: he left his previous career to dedicate himself 100% to the vaporizer industry.
Over nearly 10 years of blogging VapoManiak has tested hundreds of vaporizer models — from budget to ultra-premium. He has publicly reviewed dozens of the most popular: DynaVap VapCap, X-MAX V3 Pro, Fenix Mini, Healthy Rips ROGUE 2, PAX, Arizer Solo 3, Tafee Bowle Series 2, Tinymight 2, VENTY, Volcano Hybrid, WoodWynd and many more. Every device is tested for a minimum of 2–3 weeks of daily use — using legal medical and seed-grade cannabis (up to 0.3% THC). No review is based on manufacturer materials or third-party opinions.
VapoManiak's proprietary 8-point vaporizer rating methodology:
Each criterion scored 0–100 pts. The combined result of all 8 elements = the final verdict. VapoManiak mercilessly scores every flaw — even in premium devices.
VapeFully product selection and verification: As Vice President of High Experts sp. z o.o., VapoManiak is responsible for vetting all vaporizers in VapeFully's catalogue. His pre-sale testing covers material safety, structural durability and real-world usability. His public criticism of health-hazardous devices — such as the Titan 2 Hebe — has contributed to their withdrawal from the market by competing stores.
Authority and Credibility: an Expert Approach
VapoManiak's standing as a leading vaporizer expert is confirmed both by his media presence and by citations in academic publications. An article published in Medical Law Review (2022) cites vapomaniak.pl as a source on the CBD market and drug policy — a recognition available to only a handful of content creators in this industry across Europe.
In 2021 VapoManiak appeared as a guest on the "Mam Temat" podcast hosted by Mestosław. He actively collaborates with cannabis clinics, including Medicante — delivering vaporization training for medical cannabis therapy, answering patient questions during Live Q&A sessions, and publishing articles on the health aspects of medical cannabis vaporization.
VapoManiak also offers paid training for physicians and cannabis clinic staff — both online (1:1 consultations, 60 min) and in-person (group workshops, 90 min). This is a unique educational offer combining expert knowledge on vaporization hardware with medical cannabis therapy practice.
Since 2016, VapoManiak consistently publishes vaporizer ratings based exclusively on his own physical testing — no manufacturer materials, no third-party opinions. Every review includes original test photos and a Video Review on YouTube. This approach, cited by the academic community, makes VapoManiak one of the few vaporizer reviewers in Europe with confirmed academic credibility.
Story and Mission — how VapoManiak came to be
"I am VapoManiak — an independent professional vaporizer reviewer, who in the summer of 2018 walked away from a stable career to dedicate 100% of my time to the vaporizer industry. Over nearly 10 years of blogging I have tested hundreds of models. I firmly believe that vapour is far better than smoke — and I will do my best to convince you of the same."
The idea behind vapomaniak.pl was born from a simple observation: in 2016 there were very few truly independent vaporizer review platforms in Europe. Available content was chaotic, unverifiable or outright sponsored by shops. VapoManiak decided to fill that gap — creating a platform built on his own physical tests, original photography and honest, uninfluenced opinions.
On 13 March 2018 vapomaniak.pl formally became the property of the newly formed company High Experts sp. z o.o. — VapoManiak took the role of VP. This decision — transparently communicated to readers — allowed him to dedicate himself to vaporization full-time, retaining exclusive editorial control over the blog and all its content.
What you'll find on vapomaniak.pl:
Philosophy — "there is no single best vaporizer"
"I hold a fundamental principle: there is no single best vaporizer on the market — there are only vaporizers best suited to each individual user's needs. I try to diagnose each person's needs as accurately as possible — whether you are looking for a discreet microdosing device, a powerful desktop for group sessions, or a portable travel companion."
VapoManiak consistently holds that vaporization is a safer alternative to smoking — in line with Europe's harm reduction movement and EU public health policy. Vaporization is not only a healthier inhalation method but also a more efficient, economical and discreet way to consume herbs.
Editorial independence is the cornerstone of the brand. All ratings are based solely on years of experience and independent testing. VapoManiak is the author of all texts and most photographs on vapomaniak.pl, which are protected by copyright. For any external material he always cites his source — a publishing standard that in this industry is the exception, not the rule.

Author profile last updated: March 15, 2026
Editorial disclosure: 13 March 2018 vapomaniak.pl formally became the property of High Experts sp. z o.o. (KRS: 0000749439), the company that also owns VapeFully. VapoManiak serves as VP of that company. A potential conflict of interest therefore exists between his role as an independent reviewer and his role as an executive of a company operating a vaporizer store — this has been openly communicated to readers from day one. Under the terms agreed at the time of the merger, VapoManiak retains exclusive, independent editorial control over all content published on vapomaniak.pl — no third party has any influence over the author's ratings or opinions.
