Dab Pens & Wax Pens

Dab pen is a simpler, more portable version of a dab rig. In fact, it’s more similar in design to a wax pen than a dab rig. The difference here is that instead of vaping oils, you’re vaping concentrates. The simplest dab pens feature basic attachments that screw onto a vape battery or a box mod. These attachments can come with a selection of different coils including a quartz coil, a ceramic coil, a stainless-steel coil, a titanium coil, or a dual rod coil.

What is a dab pen? Is it the same as a wax pen?

A dab pen is a simpler, more portable version of a dab rig. In fact, it’s more similar in design to a wax pen than a dab rig. The difference here is that instead of vaping oils, you’re vaping concentrates. The simplest dab pens feature basic attachments that screw onto a vape battery or a box mod. These attachments can come with a selection of different coils including a quartz coil, a ceramic coil, a stainless-steel coil, a titanium coil, or a dual rod coil. The coils are usually encased in metal, or in a ceramic bowl that enables the concentrates to evenly vaporize. More expensive, high-quality dab pens or terp pens can feature a mini oven heating chamber attached to a battery. This little oven heats the concentrates to the ideal temperature without burning them, for a smooth, full-flavored hit.

A wax pen is almost the same as a dab pen. The difference is that a wax pen is designed specifically for vaporizing wax instead of other forms of concentrates. A wax pen is a piece you need if you’re looking to dab wax on the go. And finally, dab pens have screw-on cartridges (usually 510 threaded) filled with oil or liquid. These single-use and refillable cartridges are convenient and easy to use because they come loaded. All you have to do is screw it onto the battery (that you remembered to charge) and start puffing. Most of these devices feature adjustable airflow and convenient Micro USB, or USB Type-C charging to maintain battery life.

Dab Pen Vs E-cigarettes

An e-cigarette is an electronic device that heats a cartridge filled with liquid containing flavoring and nicotine to turn it into vapor. A dab pen vaporizes different forms of concentrates. Vaporizers work by heating your substance of choice to below the point of combustion. This releases vapor instead of smoke and results in a healthier, cleaner method of ingestion. Dry herb vaporizers are designed specifically for use with dry herbs and won’t be able to handle wax or other concentrates. The same can be said about concentrate vaporizers. There are, however, hybrid vaporizers that are designed to handle both dry herb and concentrates. So, if you are looking for a dry herb vaporizer instead of a wax or dab pen, we've selected the best dry herb vaporizers for you.

Dax pen shopping tips

A dab pen and a wax pen are almost the same things. The only difference is that wax pens have a bowl designed for holding wax, while other concentrate pens have to be able to deal with oils and liquid concentrates as well. Many concentrate dab pens are compatible with waxes, oils, and many other forms of concentrates. We have a wide selection of great deals that are all under $100. Why not pick up a wax pen for sale or check out our dab pen range and pick up a dab pen for sale. Even the most budget-conscious enthusiasts can get on the smoking pen trend. When using a wax pen, we recommend buying a second battery to avoid running out of power. To help you with this, we've selected the best wax pen batteries, with a range of different charging styles and battery life.

If you already have a dab pen, and you want to modify it to use wax, you’re in luck. A wax atomizer is something that you can screw onto your existing terp pen battery. The atomizer has a bowl specifically for your wax and comes with replaceable coils that heat up the heating element. This heating element is located in the bowl, where the wax will eventually evaporate into a consumable form. This means that wax dabs are at your fingertips when you’re out and about without having to haul your entire dab rig along with you.

How to choose a dab pen

A good place to start when choosing a dab or wax pen is to understand what you want to use it for. There are budget and more high-quality devices designed specifically for wax. They can come with a wax cartridge that safely holds your wax in place while you take a puff. One of the most popular brands is Pax. Pax is well known for the quality of their products and one of their most popular wax pens is the Pax Era Pro Wax Vaporizer, although the Pax 3 Vaporizer is even more popular.

Dab pens pros and cons

Dab pens have risen in popularity recently, and for good reason too. They are a convenient and simple way to get your hits on the go and undercover. The vaporizing of the concentrate or dry herb gives off hardly any smell, which means you’re in stealth mode whenever you have your pen with you. A smoking device like a smoking pipe will never be as discreet and will leave more of a lingering smell when you use it.
Dab pens use cartridges filled with oil that you simply screw onto the vaporizer base. This means you don't have to clean it out and refill the chamber every time you want a hit. Simply pull it out of your pocket, take a hit, and carry on with your day. It’s as easy as that!
They are also a much more efficient way of getting larger amounts of effective compounds into your body. As the name suggests, the compounds are a lot more concentrated than dry herbs.
When it comes to cons, there are a few things that you should consider before making your choice. Firstly, wax and dab pens need cleaning. After all the good stuff has been vaporized, there will be a sticky resin leftover that needs to be removed. If you leave it too long, the residue might have a negative effect on the performance of your wax pen.
Another thing to consider is that if you’re using concentrates of any kind, you’re going to have to load and clean the bowl when you want to use it. This isn’t a major issue since most smoking devices require this step, but it is something to consider if you’re looking for a piece to meet your on-the-go needs.
Dab pens, in contrast, are all ready to go as soon as the battery is charged, and the oil cartridge is screwed on. No messy loading or cleaning with dab tools is required. Have a look at our selection of dab pens for sale for on-the-go performance.
There are a couple of cons with dab or terp pens as well. One is that most of the available cartridges are single-use, which means that it’s a more wasteful way of consuming concentrates. If you’re concerned with the amount of waste that humans generate, maybe look at refillable cartridges or wax dab pens for sale. Buying dab pen cartridges is also more expensive over the long term than buying only the concentrates, oils, or dry herb on its own, so take a look at our impressive selection to see what's best for you.
