Your problem may be your hardware, or even the way you’re filling. If the wick is not primed correctly, ie into a pre-warmed cart, it will hit dry, AND probably fail to prime.
Because it says California on it? Or because you’ve been told it it the correct tool for the viscosity you’re trying to run?
Why make us drag that info out of you? Do you believe all vape devices are created equal?!?
So have you tried others?
All that requires is wandering over to the cart peddlers section and asking for free samples…
Have you read up of available diluents? Or are you insisting on straight distillate? Because that’s what you have, or you are trying to avoid the odor of cannabis?
My friend, I really want to adapt my distillate to the California Honey vape pen. My friends just want one. Can I dilute the distillate with propylene glycol?
Ideally you would have stated “want to stick with xyz hardware” upfront. Although you’d still get “but why?” Especially if you start with “I wanna do this, but it doesn’t work”.
I’ve asked before, and will ask again; are you also avoiding terpenes to reduce odor?
Because many will claim (eg @Realterpsmatter) that skipping the natural cannabis derived diluents makes for a less fun ride.
don’t cut your carts. there are plenty of cartridges out there that vaporize disty just fine.
add terps. they will act as a thinning agent to an extent. but I wouldn’t go over 5% terps…
Said it before and I’ll say it again, bogus replica terps and hot dog water is just flavored raw distillate…adds no entourage. Does not increase bioavailability…just boring distillate.
Either because they are trying to avoid the odor of cannabis, or because they find them to be irritating.
@Beaker went to a lot of effort to remove them from his personal meds. Others have explicitly stated their need for stealth in jurisdictions where cannabis is still illegal.
OP hasn’t addressed why they’re running straight distillate.
Very helpful, I suggest instead you could
a) try and understand WHY they are running straight distillate
b) convince them of the benefits of using the natural cannabinoid diluents found in the trichome
c) offer them hardware that will actually perform with their desired input
For stealth you should be using very high quality BDTs from Ebnya or Extract Consultants with a Randy’s Inspo+ battery. No one will know it’s not nicotine.
