What is a weed pen?
A weed pen is a portable, pen-shaped weed vaporizer. The most common type is the pre filled vape pen, followed by the dab pen and the weed vaporizer. Unlike traditional methods, a weed pen doesn’t use a lighter or torch for ignition or heating. It uses an internal battery and ceramic coil to heat the cannabis to a specific temperature. To convert active ingredients into vapor. Vaporizing is more efficient than smoking. That’s because the right temperature evaporates more cannabinoids, terpene, and flavonoids. It also eliminates harmful substances like tar and carbon dioxide produced by combustion. Provide a less irritating and relatively soothing experience for your lungs.
