Choosing the Best Wax Pens —the Ultimate Buying Guide

There being so many brands of wax pens in the market, it almost becomes impossible knowing which one to go for. We all have different ways of vaping and look for different experiences, but the factors all come down to the same thing. The quality of the wax pen, lifespan, design, and so forth. Knowing what exactly to look for in your wax pen will help make this exercise easier for you.  So, let’s dive in.

Material

If you are looking into something cheap, we would suggest otherwise. Why? Cheap wax pens are precisely that! They are inexpensive and will only serve so long until you end up back into your pockets for yet another. Let’s probe much more profoundly. Coils come in different materials, quartz, ceramics, and also Silica. The quartz atomizers deliver a robust flavor and are very easy to clean; sadly, they won’t last you long.

You probably won’t find newer generations of wax pens with silica wicks and if you do, then all hands-on deck with elbow grease. They are just not the easiest when it comes to cleaning them. If the flavor is your thing, then this is probably not the best idea for you. However, looking at the ceramic atomizers, you can expect an evenly burn THC and also cook flavors are a thing of the past. You can also expect your wax pen to last long enough to make you a pro in the game.  To sum it all, the best wax pens come with ceramic atomizers.

Portability

Wax pens like the name suggest are reminiscent of a pen. This means they should be small enough and lightweight. You should be in a position to slip it into your pocket, purse, backpack, or whichever another convenient place to store. If not so, then there’s not much meaning in acquiring one. The best wax pens should come in the same size as a pen, and for more discretion, they should fit perfectly well in your hands without being revealed to the rest of the world.

Ease of Use

The simplest wax pens come with a simple push-button for igniting the process. However, needs precede the simplicity of the device and for those looking for more control over the process will have the advantage of doing so with wax pens that come with programmable presets. Some can set the temperatures to precise levels. Because of the difference in the user experience, starter kits for the novices and single devices for the experienced users are all available in the market. Regardless of the preference, the device should be straightforward to use.

Battery Life and charging

The most common battery capacities for wax pens range between 360mAh and 1600mAh. The type of wax pen will determine the nature and power of the batteries it comes with. For example, dual quartz and also quad quartz atomizers come with much larger batteries because of their high-power requirement. Again, battery life is determined by the level of temperature required for vaping.  If the wax pen runs on low temperatures, then it does not need much power and if vice versa, then more battery power is required. Some of the wax pens with the best batteries fall under the Yocan series with excellent heat capabilities, functionality, and overall quality.

Warranty

Most, if not all, wax pens come with a warrant policy attached. Some come with extended warranty policies why, by the way, is a good indicator that the wax pen is well crafted and that the manufacturer expects the device to last. However, as is always the case, some of the dab pens do also come with short warrant policies which don’t always bring a good sign. Even though short warranties are not still an indicator that the corners could have been cut, it is a guarantee to the user that in the event problems arise, there’s no one to turn to.

Budget

Regardless of the product being discussed, be it a wax pen or even a vape juice, the budget always precedes most of the factors. The budget is the one that dictates the quality of a product. With that in mind, going for an excessively cheap wax pen may end up being a significant loss. At times cheap wax pens come with unsatisfactory features and end up sitting by the kitchen window all through the summer and winter. Of course, that is money wasted. Always be keen to consider the best price, and whenever there are cheaper options, don’t be lured into the direction. The more expensive wax pens most often come with more excellent features and are usually less likely to cause you problems. That is the best move you will always make lest you come to regret it later on.

Conclusion

Choosing a wax pen doesn’t have to be rocket science. All you need to know is the nitty-gritty that makes the wax pens deliver exceptional vaping sessions. These include battery capacity, temperature control settings, the material of the coils, chambers, and atomizers, the mouthpiece design, and finally, the overall build of the vaporizer. Just be sure to keep in mind the few points we have covered, and you will be well on your way with the best wax pen for your needs.
