<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n I am a member of the older generation and someone who has been smoking cannabis in joints, bongs and glass pipes for almost fifty years. I will be the first to admit that I do find high temperature dabbing with a butane torch to be overwhelming and downright scary. In this article I will explain why it is worth it for us older cannabis users to master dabbing. I will also discuss some of the new innovations in dabbing technology which should make the process much more appealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Each delivery method has its own distinctive number of benefits. Here are some of the pros for dabbing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is incumbent upon the cannabis industry to provide better technology that is safer and easier on the throat and lungs using controlled dosing at easily controllable temperatures if it wants to appeal to the older generation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The invention of electric dab rigs has really changed the perception of dabbing and propelled it into mainstream use. Concentrate usage has gained in popularity with a 40% increase in 2020 in both the medical and recreational markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The electric rig allows the user to dab without having to use a butane torch. The nail is attached to a temperature controller which allows users to control the temperature with the click of a button, either with a battery powered heat source or with electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The only drawbacks are the cost of electricity which is actually much less than the cost of butane and the need to replace the coil every so often.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a large range of different designs, both portable and for your desktop. Electric dab rigs are easier to use, with less mess and are much safer; the prospect of a novice user in control of a blow torch while extremely intoxicated can spell disaster. While the initial investment may seem prohibitive, if you dab on a regular basis, it is well worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Make sure it is sturdy and easy to use with an accurate, simple to use temperature gauge. Read online reviews and ask other dabbers for recommendations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n VapeXhale has developed a dabbing device which they describe as something between a bong and a vaporizer. The EVO uses a patented technology called PerpetuHeat Thermal Technology. It is activated by an electric power switch. As you inhale, air travels through the glass enclosed heater core which connects to a customized glass mouthpiece. Convection heating technology warms the concentrate to a controlled temperature of your choice, producing huge clouds of vapor. This method is better than the majority of dabbing equipment which uses conduction heating where there is direct contact with the heat source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n DabTabs are 50 mg honeycomb-shaped, measured doses of different types of full-spectrum cannabis concentrates. Each dablet is wrapped in a casing that can be heated and dabbed with no mess. The user places it flat inside the dab rig heat chamber, heats it and inhales. It provides about three hits before it turns black, indicating that it has been completely consumed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here is the link<\/a> to the article about DabTabs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sources:<\/p>\n\n\n\n leafly.com, Will New Technology Make Dabbing Approachable to Older Generations?
