What makes Puffco different from other concentrate vapes?
Puffco builds vaporizers specifically for concentrates using materials without glues or chemicals in the airpath. Precise temperature control preserves terpenes, chambers heat evenly without hot spots, and devices last years with proper care. The result is cleaner flavor and smoother hits compared to generic pens.
Which Puffco should I buy if I'm new to concentrates?
Start with the Puffco Pivot ($130) for portable sessions or the New Peak ($220) for home use. Both feature simple controls, consistent heating, and beginner-friendly designs. The Pivot fits in pockets, the Peak sits on tables. Either option delivers quality vapor without complicated settings or learning curves.
How do I use a Puffco vaporizer?
Load a rice-grain-sized dab into the chamber, press the power button, wait for the device to reach temperature (light indicator shows when ready), then inhale slowly. Start at lower temps for flavor, increase for bigger clouds. Clean the chamber with isopropyl alcohol after 10-15 uses.
How long does the battery last on Puffco devices?
The Pivot delivers 15-20 sessions per charge, the New Peak provides 25-30 sessions, and the Peak Pro lasts 30-40 sessions. All models fully charge in 1-2 hours. Lower temperature settings extend battery life. Expect a full day of use between charges for most users.
Do I need special tools to load Puffco vaporizers?
Any standard dab tool works with Puffco chambers. The Hot Knife accessory heats up to make loading sticky concentrates easier but isn't required. Metal or ceramic dabbers fit all models. Just keep tools clean and avoid touching hot surfaces during sessions.
How often should I clean my Puffco?
Clean the chamber every 10-15 dabs or when flavor decreases. Soak the chamber in isopropyl alcohol for 20 minutes, rinse with warm water, dry completely before next use. Regular cleaning maintains flavor quality and prevents buildup. Takes 5 minutes and extends device lifespan.
Can I adjust temperature on Puffco devices?
Yes. The Pivot and New Peak feature multiple preset temperature modes activated by button presses. The Peak Pro offers precise degree control through the app or device buttons. Lower temps (450-500°F) preserve flavor, higher temps (500-600°F) produce bigger clouds. Experiment to find your preference.
