I've smoked a pipe for over 20 years. I like to just puff on it hands free so I can do things with my hands.

I'm wondering if there is a lightweight pipe that triggers on inhaling somewhere? I bought an epuffer 609, but it requires you to press a button and it's ridiculously heavy. Can't clamp it in my mouth.

I'm also wondering if a regular ecig would work better. If you've got any recommendations, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks.

I'm no epipe expert, but here's a little cheapy they almost pay you to take away. You'd still need to put some kind of atomizer on it. Diablo Mini e-Pipes | Madvapes Of course that's no good if you want something that's a more realistic looking pipe. I would guess most of those are pretty heavy. So you don't want big clouds or anything, just puff to taste?

This is sort of interesting, it has auto for puffing and manual for harder hits. Vapourettes | Electronic Cigarettes

I smoked pipes once upon a time. A useful ecig is more like a calabash with a meerschaum bowl, too heavy to use without keeping a hand on it. There may be some pressure activated cigalikes so light and small but tiny batteries, wimpy vapor and cost might be discouraging.

These are not pipes but look at the icare Mini or Juul.

No button to press. Activates on inhale, and pretty light in weight.

Most 'regular' e-cigs that look like a plastic cigarette (cig-a-likes) and have an automatic puff are 1) extortionately expensive and 2) over-hyped and under-performing.
It's a murky area of shady business designed to take folks money over selling a quality product. Be careful.
A $30 (pipe) mod with a $15 tank will leave the rip-off products where they belong; on the scrap heap of evolution.
Don't trust reviews on e-cigs unless you can verify claims from an independent source. The e-cigs claiming to be the best are usually the worst or 250% over-priced.
Always feel free to ask. :)

Welcome and glad you joined. Might want to google "vape: AIO = All-in-One". I would look into these. Your looking for a light weight battery+atomizer. Could check out Blu or something like that.
