What is a Nectar Collector?

It was only natural that as dabbing has continued to grow in popularity, that companies and dab enthusiasts alike would come up with more and more ways to enjoy concentrates while savoring excellent flavor, efficiency, and user-friendliness. One of the latest trends in the dabbing world is the nectar collector, which at first may seem like a passing fad that adds no true value to the dabbing experience, but that just couldn’t be farther from the truth.

Although they are relatively new to the market, and not yet as popular as e-nails and other types of dabbing hardware that are having a serious moment right now, we believe that nectar collectors will find their way into the collections of a good number of concentrate enthusiasts moving forward.

The Basics of Nectar Collectors

The first thing you will notice with a nectar collector is that it doesn’t look like much. It’s essentially a long straw with some bulbous attachments at the bottom. But, that is actually the brilliance of this device, as being such an extremely simple piece of equipment from an engineering standpoint, this device can still allow for a dabbing experience unlike any other.

Basically, a nectar collector is a long vertical straw with a heat-resistant tip. It comes with a dish that basically takes the place of a traditional nail, as it holds the concentrates. You heat the dish, then position the nectar collector so that you can suck up the vapor like you were using an ordinary straw.

What Kinds of Nectar Collectors are There?

Nectar collectors all follow basically the same principles of design, but they can vary in a few ways:

• Material: Nectar collectors are usually made of either silicone or glass, as they must be heat-resistant to an extent they can handle the temperature of the vapor.
• Must Be Non-Porous: Cleaning them isn’t as simple as cleaning, say, a traditional pipe, due to the narrow passageway through which the vapor flows.
• Tip at the Bottom Can Be Made of Quartz or Titanium: Must be particularly capable of handling and retaining heat as it’s what makes contact with the dish containing the concentrates.
• Contain a Concentrate Chamber (electric nectar collectors for dabbing purposes): This is found at the base which takes the place of a dish which is utilized separately, and they use consistent heat output to heat the concentrate through a coil.

What Advantages Does a Nectar Collector Offer?

Maybe you are thinking that a nectar collector cannot possibly provide a more enjoyable experience than the trusty rig you’ve been hanging onto for ages. Well, check out these distinctive advantages that nectar collectors offer over other types of dabbing setups.

Advantage #1: Portability

Nectar collectors are extremely portable compared to many other types of dabbing vaporizers that are out there.

• Thin design
• Have very few moving parts that need to be properly secured before being transported, or risk coming off during transit.
• Make for an awesome piece of equipment to have if you like to bring your dabs to a friend’s house or a party.
• Don’t have to worry about lugging over a more advanced type of piece.
• Available in all different sizes, as some can even fit into your pocket, purse, or glove compartment.

Advantage #2: Direct Vaporization

Because of the vertical design and the generous airflow, nectar collectors can offer more direct hits to the user than other types of devices. In other words, each hit can be more potent, with more concentrated flavor and cannabinoid impact. Think of them like a one-hitter, where the straight airflow channel allows for stronger hits overall.

Advantage #3: Easy to Use

Nectar collectors are undeniably user-friendly compared to more advanced types of dabbing devices. They don’t have as many moving parts that need to be utilized in order to complete a dabbing experience. These devices are even easier to clean as you really only have to worry about the airflow channel, which can be cleaned simply with some cleaning solution and a long, non-abrasive cleaning tool.

The act of dabbing with a nectar collector is extremely straightforward. You just heat the tip of the collector, and essentially drag it over the concentrates in the dish. The process is quick and uncomplicated, making it perfect for newbie dabbers who are intimidated by more involved hardware.

Advantage #4: Tidier

Using a nectar collector allows for a more mess-free type of experience. For one thing, the concentrates are not as messy because of the dish, and the device is less likely to spill water. So, enjoy using them without having to think about the mess that you are about to make.

Advantage #5: Filtration

• Add a lot of enjoyment to anyone’s dabbing routine.
• Easy to use.
• Easy to maintain.
• Awesome portability
• Capable of delivering an unparalleled type of dabbing experience that is flavorful and impactful.
• With so many models available today, both analog and electric, you can find a nectar collector that meets your most specific dabbing needs.
