THC Vape Pens

When purchased from licensed dispensaries like New Brighton Dispensary, vape pens and cartridges undergo rigorous testing for safety, potency, and purity. Always buy from reputable sources and avoid black market products. While vaping is generally considered less harmful than smoking, any form of inhalation carries some risk. Consult with healthcare providers if you have respiratory concerns.

Cartridge longevity depends on usage frequency and puff duration. A typical 0.5g cartridge provides approximately 100-150 puffs, while 1g cartridges offer 200-300 puffs. Light users might enjoy a cartridge for weeks, while daily users may finish one in several days. Store cartridges upright in cool, dark places to maintain quality and prevent leaking.

Disposable pens offer maximum convenience – pre-charged, pre-filled, and ready to use with no maintenance required. They're perfect for beginners or occasional users. Rechargeable pens with interchangeable cartridges provide better long-term value, more strain variety, and environmental benefits. They're ideal for regular users who want options and flexibility. Our staff can help you decide based on your usage patterns.

Vape pen effects typically begin within 1-5 minutes and peak around 30 minutes after inhalation. Total duration usually lasts 1-3 hours depending on dose, strain potency, and individual tolerance. This makes vaping ideal for quick relief or when you need effects that don't last all day. Start with small puffs and wait 10-15 minutes between sessions to gauge effects.

THC vape pens remain federally illegal in the United States, making air travel with them prohibited even between legal states. TSA's primary concern is safety, not drug enforcement, but discovering cannabis products can result in confiscation, fines, or legal consequences. Never transport THC products across state lines or through airports. CBD vape pens with less than 0.3% THC are federally legal but still risky for air travel.

Common causes include: dead battery (charge it), cartridge not properly connected (ensure tight connection), clogged mouthpiece (gently clean with toothpick), empty cartridge (time to replace), or damaged coil. If battery lights flash or blink rapidly, consult your device manual for error codes. Sometimes simply disconnecting and reconnecting the cartridge solves connection issues.

Store vape pens and cartridges upright in cool, dark places away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid leaving in hot cars, which can cause oil to thin and leak. Keep away from children and pets in locked containers. For maximum freshness, some users store cartridges in refrigerators, though this isn't necessary. Clean mouthpieces regularly to prevent residue buildup.

Vape pens produce significantly less odor than smoking cannabis flower. The vapor dissipates quickly and doesn't cling to clothes, hair, or furniture like smoke does. While there's a subtle scent during use, it's much more discreet than traditional smoking. Flavored cartridges may smell fruity or herbal rather than like cannabis. However, some odor is present, so vaping isn't completely odorless.

While some cartridges are designed to be refillable, most pre-filled dispensary cartridges aren't intended for reuse. Attempting to refill standard cartridges can damage them, create leaks, or affect performance. If you want refillable options, purchase cartridges or tanks specifically designed for multiple uses, along with cannabis oil from licensed dispensaries. Our staff can recommend proper refillable systems.

For most cartridges, 3.2-3.8 volts provides optimal balance of flavor and vapor production. Lower temperatures (below 3.2V) preserve terpenes for better taste but produce less vapor. Higher temperatures (above 3.8V) create thicker clouds but may taste harsh. Start low and gradually increase until you find your sweet spot. Not all batteries offer voltage control – many work perfectly at preset temperatures.
