Utillian 8
The Utillian 8 is an outstanding vaporizer designed for sophisticated connoisseurs looking for high-quality flavor and dense clouds. The innovative BurstHit 3D heating chamber allows concentrates to be evenly heated throughout all surfaces of the atomizer. Utillian included terp pearls which add to the vapor quality as they agitate the extract for better flavor extraction by spinning around your chamber upon inhalation. This movement stirs up your wax and reduces puddles resulting in more vapor and more terpene-rich flavor. The integrated multi-tool helps users eliminate the inconvenience of leaving sticky marks on surfaces. The tool also acts as a choke, dab tool, and carb cap simultaneously, so there is no need to purchase or carry around multiple different parts. These features make this device extremely user-friendly and perfect for those looking for a device that can produce the best-tasting flavor on the market.
Focus V Carta 2
The Focus V Carta 2 is an outstanding conduction-based e-rig. The Carta 2 is perfect for those who are searching for an elevated vaporizing experience. Focus V implemented an app that allows you to fully customize and control your Carta 2 with your mobile device. The new app allows you to set session times, and degree accurate temperature up to 450°C.

New Puffco Peak Pro
The New Puffco Peak Pro is nothing short of a premium E Rig that made an excellent stride forward in the world of Wax Vaporization. Its heating chamber is around 40% larger than its previous version. This Chamber also heats up on the side walls, providing a more efficient and smooth process. The New Peak Pro provides a flexible temperature range that allows for accurate customization of your sessions. It's not the easiest E Rig out there to use but this can be attributed to the sheer amount of features that the unit posses. All in all, regarding quality, this unit is very good but comes at a steep price point to consider.
Puffco Peak Pro
The Puffco Peak Pro is a great e-rig that improved upon the OG Puffco Peak. This smart e-rig functions without coils and is considered to have a hybrid heating style that heats throughout the entire heating chamber. The Puffco Peak Pro has the option to be app controlled which will allow you to customize and save custom heating profiles, change temperature, time and LED lights as well as give you the option to customize the lovely boost mode integrated into the device.
Shenzhen Crossing Core 2.1
The Shenzhen Crossing Core 2.1 is a stellar update to the OG Core and brings innovative new features to the table such as a new non-rebuildable atomizer that takes away the need for extra tools and maintains the Core 2.1 running at optimal capacity.

Overall the Core 2.1 is an amazing high-quality e-rig anyone can use and should consider.
Dr. Dabber XS
The Dr. Dabber XS is a new and notable portable device for vaporizing wax. It's designed to be easy to use, with a small size and a simple one-button interface. However, it doesn't have as many features as some of the more advanced devices. The XS heats up quickly and has temperature settings that work well, although they may not be as precise as other devices. It's really good for taking with you and using on the go, but the battery may not last much. Also, the glass parts of the XS need to be handled carefully. Overall, the Dr. Dabber XS is a good choice for beginners or people who want a simple and portable vaporizer, but heavy users may find the features to not be enough to satisfy their needs.
Focus V Carta
The Focus V Carta e-rig is a very enjoyable conduction-based unit great for any e-rig enthusiast. The Focus V Carta includes the option to use cannabis concentrates mainly but can also use herbs when implementing the correct atomizer. The Carta also includes the option to replace your battery, making it very convenient to use and plan for longer sessions. Another important note is that the Carta can be controlled via a mobile app which will allow you to further customize your vaporizing sessions to your liking.
Dr. Dabber Switch
The Dr.Dabber switch is a beautiful vaporizer that features an induction heating style that uses magnets, making this e-rig unique and its vapor quality very enjoyable. This lovely vaporizer also features a self-cleaning mode, perfect for burning off any impurities and extremely simple to use. Overall the Dr.Dabber Switch is a very good and versatile device that any vaporizer connoisseur can appreciate.
The Core
The Shenzhen Crossing Core 1 is a conduction-based unit and was the first version of many that Shenzhen produced for this line. The Core 1 is a very good e-rig even by today's standard, its balanced temperature settings, budget-friendliness and abundance of options for different coils and accessories, make this lovely e-rig a high-quality vaporizer for anyone looking to start to dip their toes into the e-rig world.
Boost EVO
The Dr.Dabber Boost EVO is a nice option for those looking for an adaptable e-rig. The Boost EVO can reach temperatures up to 750° Fahrenheit which produces enormous clouds while at the opposite side of the spectrum you can set your Boost EVO to low to get decent quality vapor with a greater focus on flavor. Unfortunately the Boost EVO doesn't go lower than 500°F so those looking for flavorful vapor might want to search somewhere else.
Puffco Peak
The Puffco Peak was the first electric rig to push the size envelope. Simply put, the Puffco Peak is thought to be the smallest and most effective e-rig. This little e-rig has adequate power thanks to its 20-second heat-up time and four balanced temperature settings. The Peak uses a hybrid heating system that uses mostly conduction and a small amount of convection. When wrapping up your activities, the Puffco Peak might use more power, similar to what we see in its updated version, the Puffco Peak Pro.
Lookah Unicorn 2.0
The Lookah Unicorn 2.0 electric dab rig is a stylish and functional choice for beginners. It's got a simple design and is easy to use. It has three temperature settings, so you can find your sweet spot. But, the vapor taste can change because the temperature isn't exact. It's made with silicone, which is cheap but might mess with the flavor. It looks great, though. The glass part is strong, and the whole thing is pretty. It's not the best for travel, but it's okay for home use. If you're new to dab rigs, this could be a good start. It's not too pricey and does the job.
Pulsar Rok
The Pulsar RoK is an electronic nail with a rig-like design, bubbler, and coil-less heating source. The RoK is a convenient and straightforward one-button device. Pressing the same button may switch it on, set the temperature, and enter RoK mode. The Pulsar RoK is an effective conduction-based device that is suitable for beginners. Despite being straightforward, the Pulsar Rok is less potent than other e-rigs on the market.
G-Pen Roam
The G Pen Roam is a good quality portable vaporizer with e-rig capabilities, a conduction-based device that filters your vapor through an enclosed glass hydro tube. Its portability is hard to dispute, and the overall construction quality is decent. On the other hand, as we can see with many of these lower-end devices, the smaller frame comes at the expense of using less power overall. The G Pen Roam might be for you if you seek a portable Rig like device.
Lookah Unicorn Mini
The Lookah Unicorn Mini is a smaller version of the Unicorn 2.0. What's special about this portable E Rig is that it's smaller but still works. It has a 950 mAh battery, which is pretty good considering its size. The build quality isn't the best, but it's better than the larger version because it doesn't use as much silicone. However, it does use silicone for the mouthpiece, which might affect the taste of your vapor. On the bright side, it has a USB-C port, which is a nice feature. Overall, this device does the job and might be a good choice for some beginners.
Lookah Dragon Egg
The Lookah Dragon Egg is a special Electric Dab Rig that stands out for its unique design and affordability. It's a great option for people who are new to electric dab rigs. However, if you're looking for the very best vapor, this might not be the one for you. It heats up quickly because of its quartz coils, which means you can produce big clouds. Just make sure to clean it regularly to maintain its flavor as much as you can. The battery has a decent lifespan, but it doesn't support USB-C charging. Nonetheless, it's a good choice if you're just starting out and want something that could potentially improve in the future.
Lookah Q7 Mini
The Lookah Q7 Mini works like other Lookah products, as in it gets the job done decently. While it may not be the best option out there in terms of quality of vapor or manufacturing. It has a 950 mAh battery, which is good for its size, but it may not be powerful enough for people who use it often. However, it can easily be used with most regular bubblers, which makes it a great choice for those who want to use their own glassware.
G-Pen Connect
The G Pen Connect is an innovative, portable e-rig designed to fit onto water pipes. It offers three temperature settings but lacks precise control. Vapor quality is good initially but can deteriorate over time. The device is relatively easy to use and has a decent battery life. While it's a step forward for G Pen in terms of manufacturing quality, it falls short in performance compared to other options at a similar price point. Despite its potential, it may not satisfy some users.
XMax Qomo
The XMAX Qomo is a below-average e-rig mostly because it is designed to be portable but has too many tradeoffs to pull off its weird form factor. The XMAX Qomo is powered by a 1350 mAh battery, which doesn't cut it for most people. With just one button, the Qomo is really simple to use, but other options provide much better results for its current price point.
VapeDynamics DIP
While not particularly outstanding in any specific criteria, the VapeDynamics DIP manages to perform relatively well across the board. It's reliable and consistent performance and fair pricing make it a viable option for those looking to dip their toes into dabbing concentrates
