What are the best beginner Dax Pens in 2023?

When it comes to choosing the first Weed Vape for yourself,, there are some things to consider when shopping including ease of use, size, affordability, and the vape’s heating system.

To help you narrow your choice down, you should first know about the different kinds of heating elements including coils and ceramic atomizers.

• This just means what your heating element is made from and how it works.

In our list, we’ll describe how each dab pen works and what kind of heating element there is so you can choose the best one for yourself!
