HOW TO CHOOSE
THE RIGHT VAPE PEN
Vaporizer pens are one of the biggest, most convenient recent additions to the smoking community. Boasting the same great quality of traditional desktop vaporizers with the added perk of a compact, portable design, vape pens have become the standard for the on-the-go smoker.
There are more benefits to these vaporizer pens than just their portability. Like their stationary counterparts, vape pens produce vapor, which is healthier for your lungs than traditional smoking. Moreover, when it comes to dry herb vaping, you can conserve your blends by using a vape pen versus a desktop vaporizer or a conventional smoking method.
Another plus to vape pens is the variety that they provide. There are vapes for anyone looking to get into the craft, whether you’re looking to use dry herbs or concentrates. It’s important to know the benefits of each in your search for the perfect vape pen.
DRY HERB VAPES
Dry herb vaporizer pens are similar to the traditional desktop vaporizer in their function. There is a screened section to place your blends, and a cap that covers the opening. The process is an example of convection technology. Air that is hot enough to vaporize the material without causing combustion runs through your dry herbs, creating a cool and smokeless vapor for inhalation.
In using a dry herb vape versus a more conventional smoking method, you can use less of your herbs and still get the same punch. Many of these vaporizers have variable temperature selections, allowing the user to control exactly how much vapor they are producing. For an ultimately customizable and easy vaping experience, consider looking into the PAX 2 Vaporizer. The PAX 2 comes in an array of colors, has four temperature settings, comes with a 10-year warranty and is widely regarded as a prime dry herb vape.
CONCENTRATE VAPES
Concentrate vape pens function differently than dry herb vapes. Rather than heating to the point of convection, concentrate vaporizers instead use a compartment to hold your concentrate in direct contact with a heating coil. The coil heats the concentrate, vaporizing it while leaving behind little to no residue.
One of the main positives of buying concentrate vapes is that they’re less expensive than dry herb vapes. There are fewer options for purely concentrate vapes, with the SToK – R Series being a good starter kit.
Many vapers today are starting to gravitate towards using both dry herbs and concentrate. For those vapers there are some dual-purpose vape pens that work well when used with either. For example, the Source Orb V3 Premium Vaporizer Kit is one of the best options on the market, period – and it functions well whether you’re using blends or concentrates.
Another option for the vape pen enthusiast looking to use dry herbs or concentrates is the Cloud Pen 3.0 Ultimate 3-in-1 Vaporizer Kit. Coming in a variety of colors and featuring a quick heat-up time along with a convenient micro-USB charger, the Cloud Pen 3.0 is an affordable option for whatever you need to use.
When choosing your next vaporizer pen, make sure to purchase a quality product designed for your intended use. There are many options out there whether you’re looking to use dry herbs, concentrate, or some combination of both. You can view our entire selection of vaporizers here.
