Claim:
1. A portable vaporizer device for the generation of pressurized vapor from unpressurized liquid, comprising: a) a porous member comprising an insulator, the porous member also including a surface for receiving the liquid and an area for the pressurization of vapor that is produced from the liquid; b) a heater for conveying heat to the porous member for vaporizing the liquid, the heater further including a vapor containment region for the collection of vapor and at least one orifice for release of the vapor at a velocity greater than zero; c) a platform including a recess for engaging the porous member; and d) a mechanical force generator; wherein the mechanical force generator is external to the porous member and the heater and engages the platform in order to provide compressive force among the porous member and the heater.
