VOLCANO MEDIC 2 MEDICAL VAPORIZER NZ.
By Vapormed Germany.
Our Volcano Medic 2 Medical Device is suited for Patients Vaporizing Medicinal Cannabis from home in NZ. This is the pinnacle of all Medical Cannabis Devices in the world, expensive yes, but high quality and top performance with 2 very different vaping options from one device. There's nothing else like the unique Volcano Medic 2 device.
Description.
The Volcano Medic 2 is a TGA registered medical device. It is intended for inhalation of cannabinoids, the active ingredients from Medicinal Cannabis now legal in New Zealand with a script. The VM2 is intended for vaporization of cannabinoids from dried, ground cannabis flowers. Administering cannabinoids via a vaporizer ensures a faster onset of effect, compared to ingestion (Infusion Devices). This Desktop Vaporizer can be used at home, and because it is a Medical Device it can be legally used in hospital settings and in medical practices etc. (See more about the legalities of a Certified Device at bottom of page). Medicinal cannabis is a prescription medicine. Talk to your healthcare professional if you would like more information. You don't need to produce a script to buy our Medical Devices so anyone can purchase one. Please let it be known that our focus is on patients using Medicinal Cannabis via a Script from their GP, Dispensary for example, in their device. We are here to help if you have questions, most patients have a number of questions to ask. We try to answer most of them by providing the information you are looking for on this page. Feel free to contact us if you do need more info.

This particular Vaporizer is all ready to use on arrival and there are 2 unique ways to use it, you choose your preferred method, it's up to you. There is the Whip (hose and mouthpiece) or you can use the Forced Air function to fill a Vapor Balloon that you remove from the device and attach a valve to that you press your lips on to inhale. It's very versatile and there's nothing to stop you using both methods, all you need is a few spare bags and you are good to go. Here is what the 2 different methods look like.

Preparation of your Medical Herb.
Preparation is everything when vaporizing your Medicinal Cannabis. We do advise getting a decent metal herb grinder so you can get the most out of your VM2 Vaporizer. The basic plastic Herb Mill isn't too exciting, it really is basic and tends to rip your precious herb apart rather than grind it. Herb Grinders, especially metal ones that are sturdy and sharp will create the perfect grind for your device. You are best suited to use a 4 piece herb grinder so you end up with a nice fluffy grind, not too fine but ground enough to be ideal for the Hybrid system. We have a good selection of Imported Herb Grinders here. Most patients buy a Storage Device and some Boveda to keep their ground herb fresh and at the correct humidity. We sell all of these accessories that make life a little easier. You can grind up a few grinder loads of herb and store it in an Airtight Container so it stays fresh but more importantly, it's 100% ready to load into your Medical Device when you want to use your medication. It is better than having to grind your herb when you are in pain, grumpy and not feeling like all the hassle. Being prepared is a really good idea in our opinion because you can take your medication using your device and be done in under 10 minutes if your herb is ready to go and your device is all set up.
If you are tired of your grinders getting Build Up on the edges and jamming, there is a cure! You need a Non-Stick Ceramic Coated grinder (they are tough and never flake or peel) that chews through your herb with ease and never jams or develops any build up. They are especially good for people with weak, painful or injured hands because grinding herb can be a bit of a chore. You also don't need to clean them with ISO like you do with a regular grinder. They are a great addition to any patients medical vaporizer set up. The SLX (Slicks) is the most popular brand, the SLX PRO is now in stock, the new 2025 model. We also import the Cali Crusher Non-Stick range here.
A note on Portable Medical Vaporizers are a little easier to use because there is nothing to set up or assemble. Our Mighty+ Medic and G Pen Elite II are both fully certified Medical Devices in NZ. They are available for purchase plus they are also considerably cheaper than the VM2. There are currently only 3 approved Medical Vaporizers in New Zealand (July 2025), we stock all 3 giving you some options once you decide on your budget and your requirements. Everyone has a different lifestyle and hopefully you will find which one is best suited to your needs. The Volcano Medic 2 can be moved about or taken to a different location but it really is a home/desktop system.

CERTIFIED MEDICINAL CANNABIS VAPORIZER | SINCE 2010.
The Vapormed Volcano Medic 2 Vaporization System consists of a Hot Air Generator, a diaphragm pump and a removable Valve Balloon or Tube System.

The vaporization and inhalation processes are thus separated in time and space which makes inhalation safe as contact with heat or electricity is avoided.
Buy Volcano Medic Valve Replacement Set
To vaporize the cannabinoids, snap the Filling Chamber with cannabinoids onto the Hot Air Generator. The empty Valve Balloon or Tube Kit is then placed on top of the Filling Chamber. When used with the Tube the diaphragm pump is not needed so it can be inhaled directly from the Tube. You can either Puff and vape it with a Mouth To Lung "MTL" hit where you simply draw the vapor into your mouth and then inhale it or you can do a straight lung hit where you inhale as you are drawing all in one motion. If you are wondering whether you are getting a decent amount of vapor or not try exhaling into the light from a lamp for example. It can be very surprising as vapor is harder to see than smoke and you might be getting more than you thought. A good way to judge how much you are consuming is by how many draws you have but also the density of the vapor. Wispy light vapor is nowhere near as potent as thick dense vapor, keep that in mind when watching "how much you exhale" in a single session. Using a small lamp, flashlight or similar you can face it away from you and blow your vapor over it, you will see instantly how dense the vapor is that you just inhaled. 3 dense clouds could be the same as 6 wispy ones. This is why it's important to prepare your herb for best results to get those nice dense clouds. When it starts to die down you will know it's time to reload with a fresh batch of ground herb unless you are finished.

VALVE BALLOON | MEDIC VALVE
Once the Hot Air Generator is heated up, the pump is switched on and the hot air flows through the Filling Chamber, causing cannabinoids to be vaporized. The hot air or aerosol mixture created is fed into the Valve Balloon quickly cooling down to ambient temperature due to the Balloons large surface area. Once sufficient vapor has been pumped in the pump is switched off and the Valve Balloon is removed from the Filling Chamber and this automatically closes the one-way-valve. The Mouthpiece is then inserted into the valve of the filled balloon to inhale. Apply slight pressure with your lips to the spring loaded Mouthpiece to open the Valve and inhale the cannabinoid / vapor. Once you stop applying pressure to the Mouthpiece, the Valve will close automatically.
TUBE KIT
When the Hot Air Generator is heated place the Tube Kit directly onto the Filling Chamber on the device. IMPORTANT: Do not switch on the diaphragm pump. The hot air (convection) is led through the already preheated Filling Chamber (conduction) by the patient's forced inspiratory flow. The active substances are passed as an aerosol or vapor through the 1m long silicone tube and cooled down. The cooler the vapor the easier it is on your throat. Convection vapes can give you a hot sore throat but the VM2 does a very good job of cooling the vapor on it's way to your mouth.
Technical Video | Hybrid version of the Medic 2.

GENERAL INFO | VM2
This device is only intended for vaporization of Medicinal Marijuana / Medical Cannabis Flowers as prescribed by your doctor in New Zealand for your medical condition. Medicinal cannabis is a prescription medicine in NZ and is dispensed from your pharmacy. You do not need a script to buy one of our Medical Devices. Please let it be known that we are happy to help with your questions but our focus is on Patients using scripted Medical Cannabis.
The VM2 is not appropriate for patients with known respiratory tract or lung conditions. Depending on the density, the vapor could irritate respiratory tract or lungs, which can lead to coughing. Although the inhalation of vaporized cannabis causes much less irritation than smoking, first-time users need to allow themselves an initial period of time to find the optimum temperature for the administration. The inhalation should be done in a conscious focused manner. Making a mental note of the amount of vapor you are exhaling is always a good method of working out how much cannabis flower you are consuming in the form of vapor. If you find you can not tolerate vaping period, we do have Infusion Machines for making Oil, Butter and any edibles containing Cannabis Flower for consumption. Our machines also Decarboxylate your herb.

Authentic Vapormed Vapes NZ (Storz & Bickel NZ - Germany). Medical Devices are used for patients to Vaporize Legal Prescription Medicinal Cannabis in NZ. These devices are Certified Medical Vaporizers in NZ but are classed as Medical Devices, not Vaporizers. Technically speaking (just to confuse things even more) they are vaporizers. Often the only difference can be the use of Medical Grade Plastic inside the device. Apart from that they are identical to a regular vaporizer. The Volcano Medic 2 is almost identical to the Volcano Hybrid which is not an approved Medical Device. The same goes for the portables, the Mighty+ is not an approved Medical Device, you need to buy the Mighty+ Medic to have the approved Medical Vaporizer in NZ.

Interesting Facts about owning a Certified Medical Vaporizer.
There are a few bonuses to owning a fully certified Medical Device for your Medicinal Cannabis medication. All non-certified Herbal Vapes are illegal to posses until you place your scripted Medical Cannabis in the device, then it becomes legal! It can no longer be considered a cannabis utensil under the misuse of drugs act. BUT, there are still limitations on where you can use these devices (if not certified as a Medical Device). You must use the non-certified Herbal Vape in private even though it is legal with your scripted Cannabis in the oven. If you purchased a Certified Medical Vaporizer (Elite 2, M+M, VM2) you can use it in public, anywhere! Legally you can use it inside hospitals, even Smoke Free areas (with respect to other people nearby of course). Being a certified Medical Device it can be used in public. For example if you are using a PAX or Arizer or any other vape that is not certified in a hospital setting you could be told to not only go outside but actually go outside of the Hospital grounds to use it. If you had a certified one you could challenge them on using it from your hospital bed. Medical Devices are in a different category to regular vapes and have different rules.
