So, for wax enthusiasts, both are ideal choices for different reasons. Similarities between a Dab Rig and Dab Pen Both are for use with wax concentratesīoth are going to be used for wax concentrates. However, a dab rig can coast through any number of blackouts happily with their wax in hand. This plays out in any number of scenarios when the power is out (hurricane, blizzard, thunderstorm). For example, in a California blackout, a dab pen user will be SOL when PG&E shuts off the lights. Electricity Dependentĭab rigs, however, do not rely on electricity whereas a dab pen does. Even the hardiest glass models of dab rigs are in danger. Dab pens are not indestructible, but dropping one on the floor is not likely to cause it to shatter. Remembering that glass is breakable can sometimes prove harder than it seems at first glass.
Not even the most powerful and expensive dab pens will produce a puff comparable to a powerful dab rig. This is essentially the same comparison in the wax world. Imagine trying to compare any other device to the sheer power of a bong for dry herbs. Nothing will compare to the hits possible from the dab rig. blow torch and water) there is certainly a steeper learning curve for the dab rig. Between the different heating mechanisms, size differences, and requirements to operate (battery power v. Some dab pens have wick coils instead of quartz or ceramic and these are often used for more liquid-like waxes and found in older dab pen models.Ĭertainly, a dab pen appears to be much easier to use than a dab rig. However, ceramic will take longer to cool down. For example, titanium and quartz will likely heat faster than ceramic. Keep in mind that these materials will have different heating and cooling times. A dab pen’s wax atomizer will be made primarily of quartz or ceramic for much the same reason. This is to ensure that the nail will not melt or shatter when it gets hot. Dab Nails versus Wax CoilsĪ dabbing nail is going to be made of a bunch of different possible materials such as glass, quartz, titanium, ceramic, etc. There is also the size difference that makes a dab pen more discrete. Not only is it quieter (imagine the sound a bong makes – rigs are similar) but there is no need for a blowtorch or smoke. DiscretionĪ dab pen is going to be much more discrete. In addition, the dab rig needs to be filled with water so as to avoid spillage in transit. Not only is there a substantial size difference but the dab rig requires more and larger equipment to operate.

Differences between Dab Pen and Dab Rig PortabilityĪ dab pen is going to be far more portable than even the smallest dab rigs. Dab pens come in all different shapes, sizes, and with a variety of features available to appeal to anybody. These coils then begin to interact with the wax and slowly vaporize it in a similar manner that a heated dabbing nail would contact the wax and begin to vaporize it. The battery functions as the new heat source by electrically charging, and thereby heating, coils that sit within the heating chamber. In a dab pen, the three essential parts are the mouthpiece, the battery, and a heating chamber. vaporizes wax) in a different format and manner. It performs all of the functions of a dab rig (i.e. A dab pen essentially is a vaporizer that uses wax.
