  • It sounds like you could use just about any modern portable and be satisfied.

    I see you mentioned POTV devices in some other replies. Those are generally known to punch above their price point, offering excellent price to performance options. The Lobo is basically a value priced Crafty/Mighty+, with some options that even the name brand doesn’t offer, like swappable batteries. I think you’d be quite happy with one.

    If you’d rather go for more “premium” options the Crafty+ would also be a great choice, but some people find S&B heating to cause a tickle in the throat (the “Bickel tickle”) they don’t like. The Firewood and Angus lines are also well regarded and widely used.






  • Dry herb vaping is one of the passions in my life but that’s also because I grow my own. It may not be the best in the world but it’s definitely easy on the lungs.

    Vaping may not be for you but concentrate through vape pens was always one of the hardest on my lungs. I don’t really like 510 vapes for anything but stealth and rapid hits, but today’s top end dry herb portables only take a few seconds to heat up. It’s been at least a couple years since I’ve had a cart vape. Anyways, I’m heavily biased…

    Edibles can be heady, you just need the right strain and the right method of intake. Sublingual troches aren’t that hard to make at home and they offer rapid highs like vaping that can be very heady or very heavy body highs. Weed has a huge rage if you take the time to experiment and find out what strains and what terpenes take care of whatever it is you’re using it for. Unfortunately it can also get expensive, and negative experiences tend to stick with people so they don’t experiment much.










  • Cool, good info for OP.

    I treat all that promotional stuff as “best guess” for what’s really in the tube whether it’s a ccell cart or a dablicator. Dispensaries aren’t the most honest of places and their sources leave a lot to be desired so who knows what really ends up getting to the customer. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if there are variations of that product that aren’t decarbed and are just using it as a method of delivery.


  • What is a dab rig? Is it appreciably different from a 510 vape?

    It’s a complicated answer. In the most basic terms a dab rig is just something that lets you vape or smoke concentrate quickly and easily. Some dry herb vapes get hot enough to put the concentrate directly into or on a pad of some kind to hold it while you vape it, and there’s also quartz bangers and stuff if combustion is your style, and stand alone devices strictly for concentrates. There are options for dabbing via a 510 vape but usually the concentrate is so thick that it’s a pain to do that way unless you’re thinning it out or buying preloaded vape cartridges made for a 510 battery.

    In your case the easiest way might be squirting some of the concentrate into a joint or something but it’s hard to say without knowing what kind of hardware you have at your disposal. There are also some companies that sell addon pieces that fit a 510 battery that make dab hits easier. I’ll link one but don’t consider it a product endorsement as I don’t actually use them, it’s just to give you an idea of what you might find locally or online. There are several options available where I live for under $50, some under $30.

    If you already have a compatible battery you may only need the atomizer part, like this.
