Though many young smokers have retired their dry herb vapes in favor of oil carts, there’s something about vaping flower that simply can’t be replicated. For those who aren’t familiar, dry herb vapes guarantee a cleaner and safer smoking experience via either conduction or convection heating. There’s much debate over which of the two types is better, but the truth is that each type has its own unique benefits.
Convection vaporizers heat the material by passing heated air through the chamber and generally require less herb. They offer advanced temperature settings and better tasting hits, but tend to be more expensive and a bit harder to use. Conduction vaporizers heat your material via direct contact with the heat source. They offer simplicity, affordability, and fast heating, but tend to require more herb and provide harsher hits. Regardless of which type you choose, these are great options for beginners looking to break into the vape game.
