The popularity of the Wax pen is on the rise. Dab vape pens become one of the most popular trends among cannabis concentrate users.
From their simplicity to their purity and power, wax vape pens are capturing the hearts of vapers and of cannabis connoisseurs alike. Wax Vapes started becoming popular in the dispensaries as a form of a medicinal product as targeted wax strains and dosage were much easier to prescribe than other forms of cannabis concentrates. There is also a cost-benefit to vaping and producing wax as the process doesn’t have to go through all of the non-crystalizing or distillations that for example, cannabis oil does. When vaporized at the right temperature wax can deliver amazing flavor, potency, and hit size commonly referred to as a rip. Utilizing wax is no newbie as the dab rig market is over a decade old, but being able to carry a rig in your pocket, purse, and have it concealed is the growing trend found in wax vapes. Vape Batt has a great selection of Wax Vapes from the beginner to the connoisseur grade available for purchase, from Nano-sized to stay at home model, and in terms of power from mild to wild.

The battery will provide electric current to the wax atomizer to heat up the heating element within the unit. But first, Wax or concentrates are placed into the atomizers heating chamber or heating bowl. The heater located within the chamber heats up and vaporizes the concentrates emitting vaper into the tank / reservoir area of the tank to be inhaled through the mouthpiece.
A The most common material used to make heating chambers in wax tanks is ceramic material. It captures and holds heat very well and does not adversely effect taste when heated. Ceramics are also easy to mold and shape so it is a favorite for manufacturers to use as heating chamber material.

Flavor Purity – A good wax pen should focus on making sure the taste coming through the vape that sits on your pallet and radiates through your nose and mouth on exhale is pure and accentuates only the strain and terpene profile of the wax you are vaporizing.
