Dr. Dabber have to be one of the most recognisable names in the vaping world. Specialists in concentrate vaporizers—i.e. those designed to be used with materials like wax, shatter, and budder—their line of attractive and powerful devices have received acclaim from mainstream news outlets like VICE, Forbes, and BuzzFeed. Those devices match the hype, too: Dr. Dabber vaporizers have won numerous awards in the High Times Cannabis Cup and other prestigious competitions.
The secret to Dr. Dabber’s success can be chalked up to two main reasons: first, they’re always finding new ways to make a good thing better (for years, they’re been pushing the technological boundaries on heating systems and body design). Second, they know their audience well—nobody caters to the concentrate connoisseur quite like Dr. Dabber.
At the Herbalize Store, we’re proud to carry a wide range of the most popular Dr. Dabber vaporizers, from the Stella to the Ghost to the Switch. Backed up by our excellent customer service and our planet-friendly pledge—for every Dr. Dabber vape you buy from the Herbalize Store, we’ll plant a tree—there’s not a better place on the internet to get a new Dr. Dabber device.
But with so many options to choose from, which one is best for you? Read on to find out.
Dr. Dabber was founded way back in 2013, an eternity in the vaping world. Since then, they’ve won a place in the hearts of many a vaper with their range of speciality devices. In case you’re a novice when it comes to vaping, here’s a quick background on the brand:
The first Dr. Dabber vaporizers were designed with concentrates in mind, a legacy that continues to the present day. That means they’re intended to be used with materials like the aforementioned wax, shatter, and budder—along with other solid concentrates like resin and crumble (e-liquids and similar substances are a no-go, except for some devices like the Aurora). Many Dr. Dabber vapes can also be used with dry herb, if that’s more to your liking.
It’s not a stretch to say that there’s a Dr. Dabber for every budget. Some devices, like the Ghost, cost around as much as a pair of decent trainers. Others, for example the Switch, are located on the higher end of the vape price spectrum. In between, there are a wide variety of Dr. Dabber vapes priced somewhere in the vicinity of £100—which makes it easy to find a device that’s bank account-friendly.
Dr. Dabber offers a factory warranty on many of its products and parts, though this can vary a bit from item to item. All batteries and chargers, for example, come with a one year warranty. Glass and atomisers, on the other hand, are not covered. The Switch unit as a whole comes with a 2 year warranty—for more specific info, you can email info@drdabber.com.
Dr. Dabber devices are portable vaporizers in the sense that they’re all powered by batteries as opposed to wall chargers, meaning you’re not tethered to a wall while using them. Some devices, like the Boost Black and the Switch, are a little large and fragile to be considered portable in the traditional sense, however.
That’s going to depend largely on your needs and preferences (and your price range, obviously). In a moment, we’ll run through how to pick the best Dr. Dabber device for you.
As mentioned before, Dr. Dabber has won a lot of awards over the years. Its devices are sleek, durable, and well-made. Here are a few other things you should know about them:
When Dr. Dabber was founded, concentrates had just started to gain a foothold in the vape world. As such, fragile and expensive dab rigs were the only real way to use them. Dr. Dabber, however, proved that concentrates could be enjoyed just as much when used with a more affordable, pocket-friendly device—provided that device was designed by experts.
The atomizer is what ‘vaporizes’ your material, and nobody does atomizers better than Dr. Dabber. Crafted from titanium, these coils not only ensure a clean and robust hit with every inhalation, they’re also more durable than coils made with lower quality metals.
Dr. Dabber devices can often last multiple days on a single charge—even for heavy users. The Ghost, for example, can provide up to 300 hits without needing more juice. To make things even better, Dr. Dabber vapes are known for charging more quickly than many of their competitors.
We asked our expert team at the Herbalize Store to recommend some Dr. Dabber vapes for people of various experience levels. Here’s what they came up with:
Dr. Dabber follows a ‘quality over quantity’ approach when designing its vapes. In other words, better to put out a small number of premium devices than flood the market with a bunch of cheap, undistinguished vapes. Its latest creation might be one of its most notable yet:
Dr. Dabber caters to a vape clientele that knows what it wants—specifically, one that wants to vape concentrates with comfort and discretion. They’re ideal devices for people on a budget, as they use material much more efficiently than dry herb vaporizers. And whilst concentrate vapes have a reputation for being tough to clean, Dr. Dabber vaporizers were built from the ground up to cater to the needs of concentrate vapers, so you won’t burst a blood vessel trying to get all the gunk out. Considering the affordability of many Dr. Dabber devices, they’re great both for highly experienced vapers and those who want to take a low-risk flyer on something new.
