Desktop Vaporizer vs. Portable Vaporizer
A desktop and a portable vaporizer differ in size, power, performance, and features.
- Desktop vaporizers are larger, need a power outlet, and produce more vapor and better flavors. They offer more
powerful heating temperature settings and bigger chambers - Portable vaporizers are smaller, battery-operated, and less powerful. They also produce less vapor and
flavors.
Features and performance criteria to consider before buying a tabletop vaporizer
On our product pages, be sure to check out the specifications tab to review information
like these!
Heating Methods
Convection heating is when the material is heated by hot air that passes through it without touching the heating
element. Most desktop vaporizers use it besides the Volcano
Hybrid, which also uses a Hybrid System (Convection+Conduction).
Temperature Range
The temperature range on desktop vaporizers varies depending on the device's type, model, and features.
Generally, desktop vaporizers can heat the material to a range of temperatures between 50°F and 500°F (10°C and
260°C), which is a more extensive range than what most portable vaporizers use. This higher temperature range can
also let you vape concentrates more effectively.
Chamber Size
Chamber size is an essential factor affecting desktop vaporizers' performance and quality. Depending on their design,
heating method, and material compatibility, different desktop vaporizers have different chamber sizes but will
generally be between 0.5g-1g capacity, which is better for heavy users. Bigger chambers are better for high
consumers and long sessions.
Materials Compatibility
Desktop vaporizer material compatibility varies depending on what type of material the device can vaporize. Desktop
vaporizers can use two primary materials: Dry herbs and concentrates.
Airflow
Different desktop vaporizers have different airflow levels, depending on whether you use a bag vaporizer or a hookah
whip with or without a fan system. All of them will generally have good airflow, though.
Extraction Efficiency
Different desktop vaporizers have different extraction efficiencies; some are more suitable for specific users and
situations.
The higher the temperature, the more THC will be extracted, but this can also lead to harsher vapor.
For example, the Volcanos are compatible with a liquid pad for concentrates, and the Arizers are compatible with
different bowl setups to set up your herb closer or further from the heating element.
