Choosing a Vaping Device

Which type of vaping device is right for you

Vaping is an easy and convenient way to smoke without carrying around a lot of paraphernalia.

All you need is a vaping device and dry herb.

Packing the vaporizer before leaving home means you don’t even need to bring your weed.

Best of all, you can smoke discretely.

Did you know there is more than one type of vaping device?

So, how do you know which one is the best option for you?

Here’s a look at the various types.

How Do Vaping Devices Work

Before grabbing the first vaporizer NZ, it’s a good idea to know how the devices work.

Marijuana vaping devices use a heating element to vaporize the THC contained in the herb.

You do not need a lighter. Simply turn the device on, usually by pressing the power button.

Once the weed has reached the optimal temperature, the device gives you a signal.

Some vaping devices vibrate while others use an LED screen. The screen may display the temperature or flash various colors. Typically red indicates the device is heating up and green signals it’s ready for use.

When the device is ready, inhale on the attached mouthpiece and exhale the smoke.

Different Types of Vaping Devices

Some vaping devices are designed for use with specific cannabis products. For example, dry herb or wax (liquid TCH).

The size, design, and included features can also vary.

You can even find a vaporizer NZ with replaceable batteries.

While a device with a replaceable battery is more expensive, it can save money in the long run. Even rechargeable batteries gradually wear out over time, meaning you need to purchase a new device.

Replacement batteries are noticeably cheaper than a new vaping pen.

The Difference Between Pens and Portable Vapes

A vaporizer is typically portable whether it is a pen or a boxy-shaped device.

Vaping pens can either be rechargeable or disposable. Both types look and function the same. The primary difference is whether or not you can recharge the battery.

There is also a difference in price. Rechargeable devices typically cost more than disposable vaping pens.

Both types have a chamber to place the liquid-filled canister. Power the device on and wait for it to reach the preset temperature. When the battery dies, either plug the pen in using a USB cord or toss it in the trash.

The other type of portable vaping device has a boxy or rectangular shape. These devices are almost always rechargeable which means they come at a slightly higher price than disposable vaping pens.

Some portable vapes work with dry herb while others use liquids like a pen.

You can even find portable vapes for wax.

A good tip is to ask for advice at your local smoke shop. The staff can help you select the right vaping device to accommodate your smoking habits.

Don’t forget to consider if you want the device to come with the THC liquid or if you want to pack the chamber with your personal herbal blend.
