{"product_id":"storz-bickel-easy-valve-starter-set","title":"Easy Valve Starter Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Easy Valve Starter Set is the balloon valve system for the Storz \u0026amp; Bickel Volcano vaporiser. Pre-fitted balloon and valve assemblies that swap out as a unit when worn or sticky, eliminating the need for assembly maintenance. Cleanup of the chamber is faster than the Solid Valve alternative. Each Easy Valve assembly typically lasts three to six months depending on usage frequency. The starter set includes multiple bag assemblies and the chamber required for the system. Compatible with all Volcano Classic and Volcano Hybrid models. The simpler, lower-friction option compared to the Solid Valve, with higher running costs but quicker daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#f5f5f0; border-left:3px solid #1a1a1a; padding:20px 24px; margin:24px 0; border-radius:4px;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#1a1a1a; font-weight:600; margin:0 0 10px; font-size:13px; text-transform:uppercase; letter-spacing:0.5px;\"\u003eDennis says\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eThis is the question every new Volcano owner asks, so let me answer it properly. The Easy Valve system uses pre-fitted balloon and valve assemblies that you swap out when they wear or get sticky. The Solid Valve is a reusable balloon you fit onto a metal valve, with replaceable balloon material. They both work. They feel different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eEasy Valve is what most people end up using. You fill the bag, you pinch the valve, you inhale, you toss the assembly when it's spent — about three to six months of use depending on how often you fire the Volcano. Cleanup is a few minutes with soap and water. The trade-off: you're buying replacements forever, and the running cost adds up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eSolid Valve is the long-game choice. The valve itself is permanent and you replace just the bag material when needed — far cheaper per session, but cleaning is a real job. There's a screen to scrub, a valve to disassemble, and the whole process takes a quarter-hour. If you don't enjoy that kind of maintenance, you'll resent it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eFor most people, Easy Valve is the right answer. Lower friction, simpler experience, and the lifetime cost difference isn't enough to make Solid Valve a no-brainer unless you're a daily heavy user.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"color:#333; line-height:1.7; margin:0;\"\u003eBuy this if you want the simplest Volcano experience and don't mind the running cost. Skip it for the Solid Valve if you press the Volcano daily and you're handy with cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Storz \u0026 Bickel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57353022243198,"sku":"2019","price":94.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/3435\/1905\/files\/storz-bickel-easy-valve-starter-set_1.jpg?v=1777645532","url":"https:\/\/herbvape.co.uk\/products\/storz-bickel-easy-valve-starter-set","provider":"Herb Vape","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
