What are the glass balls in my banger?

Terp pearls are small balls that circle in the banger, increasing airflow and allowing the user to dab at low temperatures. The constant spinning spreads the heat, cooling down the concentrate and preserving the terpenes.

Why do you need a carb cap for banger?

Without a cap, the hot air easily rises out of the banger and into the surrounding air and a large amount of cool air is pulled in, so the temperature of the air in the banger is significantly lower. In my opinion, a carb cap is necessary to any good dab, but, if you’re low temp dabbing, this is an absolute must.

Is a carb cap worth it?

If you’ve only ever dabbed using high temperatures, a carb cap can help you really enjoy the experience of a low temperature dab more thoroughly. To put it into perspective the average optimal temperature for vaporizing terpenes is normally between 300 and 400 degrees fahrenheit.

When should I cap my banger?

After heating your nail surface and applying your dab, simply cover the nail or banger with the carb cap to trap the heat. To enhance effectiveness, gently twirl or spin the cap around the crown of your nail.

Will my glass banger explode?

How can you tell real glass from quartz?

Check the Hardness Glass ranks around 5.5 on the Mohs scale. Quartz crystals rank as 7 on the Mohs scale. Therefore, a piece of quartz crystal will scratch a piece of glass. Test the unknown stone under inspection by trying to scratch a common piece of glass such as a glass bottle.

Why did my Terp pearls break?

Pearls are sensitive to heat-shock. You don’t want to heat up your banger with the pearl inside, this may cause your pearl to crack or even shatter. To avoid this, try cold-starts: While the pearl is in the banger, you can drop in your terps.

Why do my Terp pearls not spin?

Can you use a marble as a carb cap?

Marble spinner carb caps have a marble ball on top, with slits on the side that provide a strong, controlled airflow. They can fit both terp slurp bangers and flat top bangers and can be paired with terp pearls or pills. These also come in a variety of different colors, designs, and patterns.
