Vaporizers 101

 

A Vaporizer is a device used to release the active ingredients of your blends or oils/concentrates without combustion (which creates smoke). This is achieved through either Convection or Conduction.

 

 

Instead of burning the material, your product is heated at a much lower temperature. This allows all of the benefits that blends have to offer without the carcinogens and other nasty by-products that are released during combustion (smoking).

 

 

With Conduction vaporization, your blend is placed in direct contact with the heating source. Convection vaporization occurs when hot air passes over the blend, but never actually touches the heating element/source.

 

 

For each vaporizer, the warranty information is listed on the product page. Typically the warranty of vaporizers is handled by the manufacturer and the warranty period can range from 1 to 10 years.

 

 

There is a slight smell that is released upon exhaling comparable to lightly burnt popcorn, but it’s very mild when compared to smoking..

 

 

It depends on the vaporizer. Some vaporizers take 2-3 minutes to reach vaporizing temperatures, whereas some units can heat up in 15 seconds!

 

 

It depends on the vaporizer. The optimum temperature range for most vaporizers is somewhere within 170 to 200 degrees Celsius or 340 to 390 Fahrenheit.

 

 

It all depends on your preference. Some users will stop when the blends have turned lightly brown and stopped producing visible vapor, while other users will vaporize until the blends are much darker.

 

 

 

Product Care & Tips

 

Depending on which vaporizer you own and how often you’re using the device, certain parts may need to be replaced every so often. This may include screens, batteries, whips/balloons, or cartridges/coils. We sell all these replacement items on our website.

 

 

Turning up the heating temperature will typically produce more noticeable and bigger clouds of vapor.

 

 

Yes, grinding your herbs allows for more efficient vaporization because it increases the surface area of your blends and allows hot air to pass through much more effectively.

 

 

99% Isopropyl alcohol cleaning solution is an excellent choice for keeping your glass clean and sparkling. You may have to disassemble some of the parts before you begin to ensure a thorough cleaning. Q-tips and bristle pipe cleaners are great for reaching those tough-to-reach spots. Most vaporizer screens can be cleaned with a small brush or glass-cleaning solution. This allows for proper air flow and maximum efficiency

 

 

We recommend using a dabber tool. A dabber tool is a small metal instrument that makes the adding and removing of your wax/concentrates painless. It also allows to accurately apply the wax/concentrate directly onto the atomizer or the wax cartridge.

 

 

For most vaporizers, we recommend a slow and steady inhale. This will typically produce the best results.

 

 

We always recommend that you fully charge your battery upon receiving your new vaporizer. This will ensure maximum performance and battery life.

 

 

Troubleshooting

 

There shouldn’t be any smoke, when you’re vaporizing! The whole idea of vaporizing is to avoid the dangerous effects of smoking. You should, however, see a light cloud of white vapor when you exhale. How much vapor you see depends on your vaporizing temperature. Lower temperatures will produce less visible vapor, whereas higher temperatures will produce denser vapor.

 

 

Most pen style wax vaporizers come with a lock mechanism. This is utilized so that your unit doesn’t unintentionally heat up while in your pocket or purse. To unlock/lock, simply press the button 3-5 times in rapid succession.
