Got Vape’s No Burn Guide to Dab Torches

Stay safe and comfortably dabbed this Summer by giving our handy run down on some basic but often forgotten dab torch safety tips while seshing, as well as some absolutely stellar options we have at Got Vape to get you ready to rip all night long.

So keep on reading in this Got Vape Guide to help you find which is the best dabbing torch for you and ensure that all your sessions end with only your banger getting burned.

Is It Safe to Use Butane Torches In Doors?

Yes! It is absolutely okay to use your butane dab torch inside, however we do recommend making sure you open a window to ensure proper airflow in your living space.

Additionally, when you are filling your torch take the time to make sure you are away from any open flames as that could end in catastrophe!

Basically if you want to enjoy the heady experience of a fire dab session, you are going to have to make sure you use your head whenever you are dealing with butane.

Common issues like “why is my butane spraying everywhere” are most likely because either your tank is low on gas or you are not applying pressure at the right angle. We recommend lining up the butane connector as a test first, then going for the fill.

Active Flame Safety Tips

Skip singeing your clothes or accidentally burning yourself, by always treating a lit flame with the utmost of care and cautiousness.

Be aware that the burning capability of your torches is actually several inches longer than the flame itself. This means you could accidentally burn yourself or scorch hair without the torch being anywhere near you.

To avoid this, always treat torches as having a longer flame than what is visible and never place anything in front of the lit flame that is not your banger.

Avoid Overheating

Red Hot? How about we red not, and instead avoid exposing ourselves to irritating over heated vapor, that is not only less potent but also an unsafe way to enjoy concentrates.

While your first instinct may be to torch the ever living hell out of your banger and immediately get to ripping, this is NOT the way you want to go about dabbing.

To avoid this, either don’t heat your banger for an excessive amount of time or instead just wait to let it cool. This gives your banger time to no longer be red hot and will instead let you wait for the perfect temperature.

If you want to take things up a notch, you could always consider getting a dabbing thermometer that gives you an exact temperature reading from your banger.

Some options range from the tiny Yocan Black Heat Vision, to the hybrid with a Yocan Black Jaws Hot Knife and Thermometer, and all the way to the big time with the Dab Rite Pro Digital Thermometer!

Session Wind Down Protocols

While most guides will focus just on when you are actually torch dabbing, the reality is that due to the extreme heat of dab torches and bangers, you are going to want to make sure when you're done everything is placed somewhere safe.

It takes a while for your banger to cool depending on the material it's made from, the same is true for the tip of your torch. These hot ends can be especially dangerous to pets and those who aren’t aware you were just seshing.

Make sure to place both your rig and dab torch somewhere out of reach of pets and unsuspecting house guests. This is a great way to ensure no accidental burns or worst case scenarios like starting a fire in your home.

What Torch Should I Use for Dabbing?

The key factors you want to look at when getting your torch is its price point, flame temperature, overall size, and if you vibe with its aesthetic.

To help you narrow down on which torch you want to pick up, we’ve got the rundown on our three top selling brands including top tier offerings from Wulf Mods, Yocan Red, and Thicket.

Wulf Mods Torches

First up we have some new drops from Wulf Mods that have gotten everyone howling; the Spire Pen Torch and the Omni Dab Tool Torch.

Both of these torches offer you butane powered torch excellence, all the while being incredibly portable thanks to their compact body sizes.

To start off we have the Spire Pen Torch, a sleek yet simple killer pen shaped torch featuring an adjustable flame that burns at a hot hot hot 2372˚F! This will get your bangers ready to blow all clouds in no time, all the while being only 4.25” long, to make it the perfect torch to bring on the go. This is a great buy whether you just need a torch to get by, are in the market for a portable accessory, or simply are interested in the simplicity of a pen torch!

Next up we have the incredibly versatile Omni Dab Tool Torch. Much like its name suggests, the Omni has four unfoldable metal tools housed within its body, making it the undisputed swiss army knife of dabbing accessories.

Make your sessions ever more relaxed by conveniently having your torch and tools all in one premium package! Specs wise, the Omni’s flame burns at 1688˚F, is activated with a convenient push down mechanism, and the Omni is even smaller than the Spire, it stands at just 3.14” tall!

Either option is a good choice for dabs and are more than equipped to get your dab sessions cooking, so keep them in mind as perfect affordable pickups that still pack quite the wallop.

Yocan Red Series Torches

From the team at Yocan, we have their premium Red Series line of products that has resulted in the ultra cool faux firearm Rush Torch.

The Rush fires with a satisfying trigger pull and unleashes a wildly powerful 2500˚F 12 inch flame for torch dabbing! Coming with an 8 gram butane tank and 20,000 piezo ignition rating, the Rush is here for the long run.

For something completely different, check out the Yocan Red Color Changing Flame Rings 3pk to add some mind blowing colors to your flame! Oh yeah you heard us right, these brilliant rings are able to snap onto your Rush Torch and instantly change the flame's color to either red, yellow, or green! (additionally compatible with the Yocan Diablo, Beef, Delta, Slate, and Katana torches)

Thicket Torches

Looking like something out of Call of Duty’s iconic Zombies mode, the Thicket Spaceout Ray Gun Torch is ready to take you to the next level. Luckily we don’t have to spin the mystery box to get this face melter, instead they are available in a choice of 14 different skins!

With a down right iconic body design, the Spaceout also brings some helpful quality of life features to the table with a dedicated safety lock, flexible flame control with an easy to use dial, and inclusion of a collapsible stand.

Also from the minds at Thicket, like a mix of something straight out of the Jetsons chopped and screwed with Flash Gordon, the kitschy Thicket Spaceout Lightyear Torch!

The Spaceout is great as it comes with an easily adjustable flame and a base to allow you to leave your torch free standing after your session concludes.
