Game Time is a Nevada based THC vape cartridge brand. Our in depth Game Time cartridge review revealed quality distillate oil that is limited by the hardware it comes with. This same oil would be much better in an improved cartridge style.
Pros:
High strength
Long lasting effect
Efficient
Excellent taste
High THC percentage
Lab tested pesticide free and solvent free
Cons:
Cartridge airflow is restricted
Recommendations: Put this same oil in a better vape cartridge like an authentic CCELL. Make this same oil available as a distillate syringe.
Licensing Information: 1017567314-001
UPDATE 12/12/19:
And lo, it came to pass, in accordance with our recommendation, that Game Time switched to CCELL. We just got word of this development while tramping about MJBizCon Las Vegas. Now we will commit to an updated review, coming soon.
Everything is great about Game Time except the hardware
These Game Time cartridges proved to be an excellent quality oil. Testing came out great as you will see below. This cartridge is a perfect example of using slightly cheaper hardware that results in much less strength, similar to what we have seen on the latest versions of the Kabunky cartrtridge.
The distillate in the Game Time cartridge had a great color to it.
Design and Build Quality: Built well, but airflow suffers
You can tell the cartridge is well built that comes with the Game Time oil. The cartridge seemed very close to an authentic CCELL, but was just a hair off. That hair off is on the airflow portion. The difference can be shown easily when comparing it to the Select Oil cartridge, which uses the same clear mouthpiece style cartridge, but an authentic CCELL.
You can see the left hole is flatter and smaller than the right hole. Left is Game Time, right is 8 Fold.
8 Fold’s cartridge gets awesome airflow on a very similar looking cartridge. Pictured above is Game Time on the right on a CCELL Palm and 8 Fold’s cartridge on the left. If Game Time used the same cartridge as 8 Fold, their cart would be on par with 8 Fold’s or Select Oil’s. Both f those brands use the authentic CCELLs.
To be sure it was not just the battery, I also tested out the Game Time vape cart on a Steamcloud Mini and the airflow was still restricted.
Oil Quality: High end as expected from AMA
The oil in the Game Time cartridge is made by Alternative Medicine Association, who also makes oils for Vader Extracts Nevada. To say I have never had a bad syringe from AMA would be an understatement. So far I have tried 5 AMA syringes and they have been top notch.
Strength is there in the oil, takes a lot of hits
Due to the restricted airflow many hits are required to get a strong effect. The strength is there. Just instead of taking 4 big hits on a regular CCELL, I have to take 8-10 smaller hits. It does not really waste more oil, just more of an effort to get the right effect.
79.4% THC is pretty strong for the Game Time vape cartridge.
Game Time cartridge had great taste
Everytning about the taste was right. Good balance and not too much terpenes. I prefer more strength over more terpenes any day. Most distillates taste good without a lot of extra terps.
Cartridge was efficient despite its airflow issues
There was almost now waste by the end of the Game Time vape cartridge. It was efficient as far as not wasting any oil. It was innefficient as far as wasting your breath to get a lot of hits out of it because the air is restricted.
Number of Puffs was good, but for the wrong reason
You get a lot of puffs out of this cartridge. I would strongly prefer fewer and bigger puffs though. Points docked here because the reason for the higher number of puffs is not the reason a vape cartridge should score high in this category.
Value would be better in another cart style or if it was a syringe
If Game Time comes out with a syringe that has the same oil, I would get that even if it meant having to buy my own cartridge to put it in. Value is hurt by the overall experience, which has poor airflow. A little bit higher cost on their end for a better cart build would greatly boost the value of a Game Time cartridge.
In conclusion, their vape cartridge build makes me want to skip Game Time vape cartridges on the next round. I think in the long run they will switch to a better cartridge. Then we can change this Game Time review to a more positive one. The oil was definitely done correctly, the hardware is where it fails.

Kushy Vape is made by Kushy Punch, which is more known for its extremely powerful edibles. This review covers the Kushy Vape cartridge. This vape had a nice clean oil to it, but there is room for improvement on strength.
Update 10/10/2019: Kushy Punch was recently found selling products illegally. For the time being, we cannot recommend this brand.
Kushy Vape had great design and build.
The build quality of the cartridge was great. It appears to be a CCell variant or similar reproduction. The metal tip made for a solid feel. You could really feel the weight of the cartridge and it made it feel like it was of high build quality.
Oil Quality: Seems like made through a good process, but feels trim run.
The oil quality on the Kushy Vape was hard to call. The strain I used was called Focus. You can tell the process used to make it was very good. I do get the feeling that it is a trim run though as the high does not last that long. It is reminiscent of hitting trim run dabs.
You can tell the oil was made through a good process, despite the lack of strength.
The high comes and goes a lot faster than the nug run. I felt like I had to keep hitting the Kushy Vape cartridge a lot to keep the feeling going. It did keep my focus though. The feeling. although short-lived, was really focused and clear.
Kushy Vape cartridges have OK strength, but it does not last long.
Again back to I think this is trim run. It is strong initially but the high seems just not to last. I cannot get the strength out of it to last I would get on carts from Select Elite or Stiiizy. Every 10 minutes I had to hit it quite a bit.
Taste: It Seemed like not much flavor was added if any, and I like it that way.
The flavor was clean and tasted like wax. Did not taste like terpenes were added for flavor. They are minimal if they are in the cartridge. I prefer this. Some of you might prefer more flavor to be added though.
The Kushy Vape cartridge was a decent value with the discount, but a bit much for full retail.
My Kushy Vape cartridge was only $30 for a full gram. I purchased it at a weed farmer’s market that is now shut down. Everything there was wholesale price. So I assume the true price is $50-60/gram. I probably would not pay that much for this cartridge.
For the San Diego area, where this cartridge was purchased, Stiiizy and stick e vape are two choices I would put ahead of Kushy Vape’s oil cart.
The vape cart by Kushy Vape was very efficient. It lasted for a lot of puffs.
Efficiency was excellent. Kushy Vape uses a standard CCell style cartridge that delivers reliable, predictable efficiency. I got a lot of puffs out of this cart and there were no loss f oil or leaking issues at all. This category is becoming less and less important as cartridges improve, and we may be removing it in the future once the vast majority of carts have no efficiency or leaking issues.
Value: I got mine cheaper than normal, but at normal prices value is OK
I paid $30 for a full gram from someone who distributes the cartridges and sold it to me for much less than it normally costs, which is $50-60. For what I paid it’s a steal. If I was going to pay $50 or $60 though, I would probably go with another brand.
The technology they talk about seems fine, but please give us that nug run playa.
I would take a Justdab, Stiiizy, Select Oil, or Kabunky (review coming soon!) half a gram over this Kushy Vape full gram. Those are nug run, or at least seem like it enough to make it seem that much better. All three of those mentioned carts I got in half grams and lasted almost as long as the Kushy Vape. There’s nug run vs. trim run for you. I should note our rating here reflects the retail price, not the sweet price I got that day.
In conclusion,Kushy Vape cartridges are OK. The oil is well made, but I am pretty sure it is made from trim, not nug, which is common. But that makes the difference between fire and not-fire. If someone wants a not too strong, focused high, it would be a decent choice for them. For the let’s get mega stoned average DabConnection reader, it would be a pass, as we go for the fire.
What do you think? Have you tried the Kushy Vape cart? Comment below!
Plug Play vape cartridges are only available around the Los Angeles area. This is not your typical vape pod cartridge system. Plug Play pods contain premium THC oil. It only takes one puff to experience an instant head change. The pod design provides a superb vaping experience backed with a lot of strength. Doing this Plug Play vape review was a consistently strong dabbing experience. Vaping is very smooth, and the pods are capable of emitting big vape clouds.
Update: March 8, 2018: Plug and Play has relabeled their brand to Plug Play vape
UPDATE 12/30/19: Plug Play now uses CannVerify on their products. See this post for updates on packaging and a demo shot of the CannVerify process.
UPDATE 9/11/2019: DISCLAIMER: In light of more recent news, it has become apparent that black market cartridges, counterfeit cartridges, and fake brands of cartridges have become more widespread than we had ever realized. We urge readers to apply their own discretion, and caution that at no point should readers assume that a review of a cartridge on our site is a guarantee of its safety. We advise readers to always verify their cartridges as coming from a legitimate source.
Design and build quality of Plug Play vape cartridges are brilliant!
Plug Play vape pen 500 Mah battery
These are ceramic heating based pods that make all the difference! Vaping performance is incredible! It feels closer to a dab rig more so than any other vape cartridge that I’ve tried. The ceramic heating gives a clean potent hit for each vape. The design of this vape pen conceals its THC oil pods for discreteness. Plug Play vape pods are very durable and resistant to breaking from drops because its made from plastic. No glass to crack.
The back of the Plug Play vape battery box shows it is 500mah.
There were some minor design flaws in our eyes that kept this vape pen from being 100% perfect. They are taking the Apple approach and trying to lock its customers into having to buy their charging cable if it’s lost.
The Plug Play vape cable originally was not a standard micro-USB charging cable. Update 7/24/2018: Charger is now standard micro-USB. It used to have pins that magnetically snap onto the vape pen. The battery fully charges within an hour and lasts a couple of days of heavy use which is the benefit of the cable. Most of us probably would have preferred to see USB-C (aka Thunderbolt) being used here, which is the new standard on Android devices, and charges faster than standard USB 3.0.
In our Kandypens Prism review, we found the lighting charging port to be a nice bonus. It’s nice to be able to find a cable cheap and easy, even if it is not for your phone type.
Plug Play charging connection has three battery connection points.
Updated 7/2018 – Plug and play made the switch to a micro USB charging connection.
Plug Play updated their charging connection to a micro-USB in July 2018.
Premium THC oil is outstanding and stronger than most.
The Plug Play vape pod packaging claims it pods are filled with grade A cannabis solventless extract. The THC oil is so thick that it does not move. The color of the THC oil is a beautiful gold transparent. This premium THC oil will set the standards for those lucky enough to try it. Those who are after THC strength are going to enjoy the many potent vape cartridge options available.
The strength of Plug Play THC oil is the strongest I have tried so far.
Incredibly strong THC oil prefilled vape pods from https://www.plugplayallday.com
I underestimated the strength of the Plug Play vape cartridges. The packaging states these pods average from seventy to eighty percent of THC content. What surprised me was these vape pod cartridges felt more powerful than others I’ve tried that reported higher THC amounts. These felt stronger than Stiiizy pods that claim they are 85% THC. Limonene and other parts play an effect here as well.
I was lucky enough to try four different strains from Plug Play, and they all had consistently high strength. What I liked about Plug Play vape cartridges is not having to chase after the THC. After two good hits, I could get the full desired effects from the THC oil.
I tried out four different pods from Plug Play.
I was the biggest Stiiizy vape pen fan for the longest because of the THC oil strength proclaimed at 85% on average. When I first had Stiiizy last year, I remember the strength being out of this world. After being a loyal Stiiizy vape pen user, I notice the strength felt like it was getting weaker. Then pops up online an independent lab test on Stiiizy from Instagram user datdude41510 which revealed a lower percent of THC found, only 68% of THC was detected in the lab test for the Stiiizy Hardcore OG strain.
I have refilled Stiiizy pods and found that Stiiizy overall is a pesticide-free and good quality oil, but the strength really comes from the hardware and not the oil itself. Stiiizy has found its hardware match with Plug Play vape pods.
Plug Play cartridges have some delicious tasting recipes.
The graphics don’t look great, but it’s the hit that matters.
Plug Play created the perfect blend of clean and potent THC oil with just the right amount of added terpenes. The terpenes are just a hint making it not overwhelming at all and leaving more room for potency. Plug Play vape cartridges are outstanding with Fire OG being my favorite among the four I tried. My second favorite was the Pineapple with a very refreshing hint taste of pineapples. The Apple Slushie reminded me of a green apple jolly rancher. The Strawberry Campagne vape cart was also very nice. I found myself wanting more of as I came close to running out. I would buy all of these vape cartridge flavors again.
Plug Play vape is great for taking with on a hike.
Efficiently is on another level for prefilled cartridges and pods.
Plug Play use ceramic coils.
There are no other vape cartridges or pods out there right now like Plug Play. The ceramic heating coils create smooth and potent hits similar to a dab rig. There is no burn on the throat from the vape from vaping Plug Play pods. It only takes one hit to feel a rush of THC transition you into being very high. The best example would be equivalent to smoking an entire joint of very high-quality indoor cannabis. The amount of time this vape cartridge system saves pays for itself. It just keeps getting better and better the improvement of vaping technology and ceramic heating coils were just the next logical step forward.
The number of puffs seem like a lot when you don’t need many.
The best thing about Plug Play is you do not need as much to feel medicated. I have a high tolerance and found myself needing only two full rips for a good quality session. Each puff will give a very strong effect so much that it’s almost unbelievable that it is coming from such a small device. A puff from Plug Play vape cartridges has much better airflow than other pods and cartridges I tried. It also had an excellent consistency for each puff without clogging like Stiiizy pods.
The Plug Play pods and vape pens are worth every cent!
This vaping brand offers the most convenience for vaping strong cannabis extract. The “Play” vape pen battery costs $20.00. The prefilled THC oil vape cartridges are called “Plug” and cost $55 on average for a full gram. We recommend this vaping set up for those who want an easy and the most efficient way to vape cannabis extract. The prefilled vape cartridges will keep you coming back for more! Let us know about your experience with this great vaping brand.
My number one recommendation before trying out Plug Play was the Stiiizy vape pen and their pods. I had spent well over a half a grand on Stiiizy pods as it became my number one go-to for my every day vaping use. There always felt like something was missing from Stiiizy pods and I found that with Plug Play. It is yet to see if this will be an exclusive oil pen form factor or if we will see it come out with other oil types. Thanks for checking out our Plug Play vape review.

Here we’ll go over how to make shatter, wax and other concentrates into THC vape juice that can be vaped out of a standard e-cig. Also known as THC e juice, the process involves combining the concentrate with a diluent to make it thin enough to vape easily in an oil pen. This also is known as making your own THC cartridge. Shot out to diseage who made the original guide I used to make juice and that info helped to build this guide.
Items Needed For Converting Concentrate To e Juice
To make your cannabis e juice you need the following items: cannabis concentrate, diluent, terpenes, mixing container, syringes with needles or slim metal tips, a heating element, and a stirrer. Using these items you can make your own wax cartridge. Also known as an oil pen or vape pen cartridge.
Cannabis Concentrate Selection For Making THC Vape Juice
The following types of cannabis concentrate will work for making e juice: distillate, CO2 oil, live resin, sauce, shatter, and rosin. Shatter is the most commonly used for making THC vape juice. In fact, the first two do not need anything added.
Distillate – Easy To Fill If Viscous Enough
Distillate is often thin enough that it can be vaped directly out of an appropriate cartridge. You can mix terpenes into your distillate to add flavor. If you already have distillate that is not too thick skip this guide and get to refilling. Distillate and CO2 oil are similar but may have different extraction methods. Often CO2 oil is just referred to as CO2 distillate. Below is a picture of a distillate syringe. You will note it needs a metal tip in order to properly do the THC vape juice injection process listed as the last step.
All this needs is a tip.
Stiiizy pen is our top recommend for refilling. See our guide on how to fill a Stiiizy pod for more information. Filling regular vape cartridges is easy as well. Most just have a screw off top.
CO2 Oil – Also Easy To Fill If Viscous Enough
Another good straight-to-the-cart kind of oil. CO2 oil that is viscious enough can be put directly into a cartridge or pod and vaped. Below is a pic of a syringe from Organa Labs I used to refill a Stiiizy pod. Great quality oil by the way. Got it from NuLeaf Lake Tahoe.
You can find these at some dispensaries. Note it did not come with the metal tip.
Nothing additional is needed. You can add additional terpenes for flavor. I probably would not as I rather have it be stronger than better tasting.
First I will stop here and say the above two methods are most preferred by us here at DabConnection. Getting a syringe of distillate is even slightly preferred over CO2 oil as it tends to taste bee above two concentrate types is also the easiest. Consider this: adding terpenes or anything else means less overall strength. We tend to go for the strongest, but some may prefer more flavor. Liqudizers and the like are great products for people that do not have access to regular distillate. If you have access, regular distillate is often going to be stronger.
Making e Juice With BHO Concentrates And Similar Waxes
Butane Honey Oil (“BHO“) concentrate, in the form of shatter or crumble, are the most popular concentrates that are diluted to make e Juice. Live resin, sauce, shatter, and similar concentrates, whether made through solvents or solventless, use the same mixing process as BHO to make THC e Juice.
There are two additional steps that may be difficult, but will help produce the best result. Decarbing your BHO can help it from getting crystalized in the cartridge later. Dewaxing BHO can help remove residual solvents and pieces of plant matter. This will make the vape run smoother and less likely to get clogged, but may be too advanced for the everyday user.
Diluent To Liquefy The THC Concentrate
There are a few different options out there for a diluent to turn your shatter (or other concentrate) into e juice. The easiest way is to get a pre-made diluent from places WaxLiquidizer or Shatter Batter. This option is preferred by many because it is easy. ANother great option that is completely terpene based is VISCOSITY Extract Luiquifier.
Now some want to go get their cannabis e juice exactly how they want it, and in that case they can use their own diluent and add terpenes. Other common diluents are: Propylene Glycol (PG), Vegetable Glycerin (VG), Polyethylene Glycol (PEG),Medium Chained Triglycerides and Fractionated Coconut oil.
Terpenes: Cannabis-based If You Can Get It
Terpenes is the part of your THC e Juice setup that adds flavor. There are terpenes that are made from cannabis and those that are made from other sources. The cannabis ones are harder to get, but they are better if you can.
Terpenes are denseley concentrated and should be added minimally to your THC e Juice mix. Two popular terpene makes are Holy Terp and True Terpenes. Holy Terp does need to get an SSL certificate though, it is better security for credit card transactions.
Mixing Container
Use a glass that is very small. A shot glass will do the trick. If you use a larger glass, use one that has a curved bottom so everything gets concentrated to the center when you make THC vape juice.
Syringes With Slim Metal Or Needle Tips
You will need syringes that have that slim metal tip or are a needle in order to properly suck up then inject the concentrate e Juice into a vape cartridge or pod. Take a look at the tip I put on the syringe below.
In its place you can use a shot glass in a pot of boiling water.
Stirring Device
A glass stirring rod is the preferred item here. A cleaned off dab tool will do the job as well. A stainless steel stick of some sort will also work.
Cartridge Or Pod To Put The THC Vape Juice Into
You can choose either a standard 510 threaded vape cartridge setup or a pod style setup to get put your THC e juice into once it is done. The most common 510 carts are CCELL style.
This type of CCELL cart stick e vape uses is great.
There are quite a few pod systems out there, so far the best we have used is the Stiiizy pen. The Kandypens Rubi and its cheaper unbranded counterparts are also popular options. We found in our Pax Era pods review that it is not the optimal system with the wick that gets too burny, but it can be used as well. Make sure your syringe tip can fit your cart as well.
Making The THC Vape Juice
Now that you got the materials together, we can get into making the juice itself. There are some variations on best practices and you may slightly alter your methods or mixes as time goes on. If you learn anything new, please do add it in the comments and we will try it out and update the post.
Mixing Concentrate, Diluent, and Terpenes
This is a process that you will get better at over time. Depending on the concentrate used you may need to go a little hotter or a little colder. You might need a little more diluent or a little less. You will get the hang of it as you go.
Heating Up
Place your concentrate into your mixing container. Place it on top of your heating element. Heat the concentrate until it reaches a liquid state. Keep it at a lower power range that maintains that liquid state. Terpenes and THC will begin to vaporizer at about 315 Fahrenheit (156.67 Celsius), so it is recommended to keep it lower than that.
Mixing In And Ratios
Once the concentrate is in a liquid state you can mix in your terpenes and diluent. Remember terpenes are concentrates so use a small amount. The ratio of diluent to concentrate will vary based on the thickness of the concentrate. If it is a particular diluent made for concentrates, ask the maker of the diluent. You can also see this Reddit discussion on mixing and ratios. Stir thoroughly while it is still heated up using your stir tool.
Let the concentrate cool off and see if it stays viscous enough to be used in a vape cart. It does not need to be as thin as regular ejuice. If it seems to thick, reheat and add more diluent. If you are not sure on thickness, you can try a little bit in the cart then go back and add more if needed. The more diluent you add, the weaker it gets, so less diluent but still hitting well is a better result for most.
Inject Into Your Cartridge Or Pod
The last thing to do is suck the juice up in a syringe and inject into your cartridge or pod. Most cartridges and pods just require that you remove the mouthpiece to inject it. After that you can get to vaping. Have something to add about making THC vape juice? Please post in the comments below. We will try it then add it if it works!
The Moxie vape cartridge is made with quality oil.
One of the best concentrate brands makes a THC vape cartridge line. Here is our much anticipated Moxie cartridge review. This cart offers excellent flavor, but could be better on strength. If it were in a different cart it would probably be more powerful.
UPDATE 2/12/2020: Moxie has since upgraded their hardware for their cartridges. We will re-review it shortly.
The cartridge used by Moxie is nothing special. It is the same design you find on a lot of THC carts. The hole is a little too small for optimal airflow and it really does not get the full potential of the oil. The best 510 threaded prefill cartridge so far was found in our stick e vape review, but it still does not meet the strength delivered by Stiiizy, even though stick e vape seems to have better oil.
Airflow hole is kind of small.
One major difference between the stick e vape and Moxie cartridge is the airflow. The hole is very small on the Moxie cartridge and it restricts airflow. This same cart would be substantially better with just a larger air path. Overall experience on the Moxie cart would be best in a Stiiizy style setup and better than it currently is in a stick e vape style 510 cart.
Build Is Tough And Reliable
The physical build of the cart is solid. Metal tip mouthpiece and glass or the chamber. I dropped it and it did not break, but since it is glass it potentially could. The cart performed the whole way through with no issues.
Oil Quality Is Top Notch As Expected
I expected the oil to be great from Moxie having previously tried a lot of their extracts and it was. This cartridge was purchased in Nevada from NuLeaf Lake Tahoe and is clean of pesticides per state standards. The strain used for this review was Pineapple Express. Hits were very smooth from this oil.
Lighting was not great but you can tell the oil looks good.
THC tested at 68%. This might seem low to you if are used to California numbers for various cartridges, but it is actually quite good. See our THC oil pen pesticides and strength tests page. You will find that much of the claimed percentages in California are way off. The Moxie cartridge could be stronger if it had less re-introduced terpenes, but these were added for flavor.
Moxie Cartridge Strength OK, Wax Stronger
Moxie is very popular in both CA and NV. It sells out quickly at most of the places I go in SoCal. The wax is of excellent strength, best of best quality. The Moxie vape cartridge did not live up to that level of strength even when adjusted for prefills being slightly weaker in general. I did not expect to get the same strength as hitting straight wax out of a vape pen, but I did expect Moxie do be substantially stronger than other brands and it was not.
Info from the back of the package.
Part of this is the hardware. It would hit stronger in the stick e vape’s cart or a Stiiizy style setup. Part could also be that it has more terpenes in it to give it great flavor. The budtender at NuLeaf said that the Moxie was great on flavor because it has a lot of terpenes in it, but was not the strongest, and he was right. I do think if I could get straight Moxie distillate and throw it in a better cart, it would be a lot stronger than some of the other major vape carts.
Taste On The Moxie Vape Cartridge Was Top Notch
Excellent taste through the whole cart . The oil was consistent and this was one of the best tasting prefill cartridges I have tried. Nothing to change at all on the taste it was perfectly done.
Vape Cartridge Is Very Efficient
Almost nothing wasted at the end of this vape cart. As you can see there is just the tiniest bit left. The reason is there are low placed holes so everything gets used up.
The Moxie cartridge is efficient down to the last drop.
The waste here is minimal compared to some carts we have reviewed. This cart is a standard build though, you will see it on a lot of prefills.
Moxie Cartridge Review Turned Out Lots of Puffs
Puff count was good. The oil is not too thin so it is not vaping away too quickly. The cartridge does not hit that hard and that also increases the number of puffs total, but is still considered a downside. Part of this is due to the airflow as mentioned above. It is better to have the option to hit it harder.
Value was a bit off, it’s expensive
Although many of our readers go for strength, the Moxie cartridge really shines on taste. It was $57 for a 500ml Moxie cartridge. Pretty high price compared to other carts that are better out there, like Roots and Airo Pro. Everything is more expensive, but it is also guaranteed lean. That is including the 20% discount at NuLeaf for happy hour and 10% less than recreational cost because I am a medical patient. If you are from another state bring your medical recommendation when you go to Nevada. It makes things 10% cheaper and dispensaries have a faster medical line.
Not cheap but quality is great.
Compared to Nevada pricing, it is in the mid-high range of pricing. At NuLeaf there was two less expensive brands and one more expensive brand.
In conclusion, our Moxie cartridge review showed it makes for a great vaping experience. It is not the strongest of the bunch and hardware improvements could help, but it delivers top notch taste. I would purchase another Moxie cartridge in the future. If they update the hardware it will take it to the next level on strength.
This stick e vape review revealed a cartridge with excellent oil quality and taste. The build quality of the cartridge was also good. So far this is one of the best 510 threaded cartridges we have tested. Recently we added stick e vape to our list of the Best THC Cartridges in California.
Design and Build Quality On stick e vape Was Good
The cartridge is all metal and glass. The glass mouthpiece feels nice and its thick.
Great airflow comes out of the vape cartridge.
THe inside of the mouthpiece can get a little dirty. Lint can build up in there and I recommend keeping the rubber cap on the mouthpiece when you are not using it. Uf you lose it like I did, this is easy to clean with a q tip. Atomizes seems to be eramic core. You can tell they did not cheap out on the cartridge build here.
The stick e vape cart felt solid.
The only thing better would be Stiiizy style. Right now that is the best style of wax pen for prefills. You may want to see our Stiiizy vs Pax Era comparison as well. Pax Era looks similar but is no where near as good. For a 510 cartridge, stick e vape chose as good as it gets.
stick e pen Oil Quality Is One Of The Best
Clean is how this oil seems when you hit it. Smooth but still delivering strength. Jack Herer was the strain used in this review.
Closer up shot of the oil
There was not a current pesticides test on the label which was concerning and I would like to see that on future items from stick e vape, but based on what I can tell from using it the quality is excellent.
Pesticide tests would be nice.
Strength Was Top Notch For A 510 Threaded Cartridge
stick e vape is as good as it gets for strength on a 510 cartridge. I used the O2vape Flip as my test unit. Jacked it up to highest setting and let it rip. I got close to as medicated as I do off hitting the Stiiizy. After refilling my Stiiizy with different, stronger oil, I get the feeling that if I could throw stick e vape oil in a Stiiizy hardware setup I would be getting stronger effect than a Stiiizy with its own oil. I will test this out if they come out with a stick e vape syringe.
Taste In This stick e vape Review Was Top Shelf
The stick e vape oil tastes great. I could not tell if terpenes were re-added to it, but it tastes like straight wax without any added flavor. stick e vape is my favorite tasting prefilled wax pen so far. It tastes like a hit of very clean wax from a good vape pen. See our earlier review of Tradecraft Farms revealed high quality buds and wax. They are the makers of the stick e vape as well.
stick e vape Cartridge Was Very Efficient
Almost no oil was wasted on this cart. A very small amount of oil is left on the side. See the pic below to get an idea of how efficient this cartridge is.
This cart was slightly less efficient than what I found in the Justdab vape review, but much better than almost all the other 510 carts I have tried. Hit quality from the cart was on part with the Justdab cart.
Number of Puffs Was High On This Cart
When efficiency is on point and oil is not too think, number of puffs is good too. stick e vapes gives a good amount of puffs. Oil was super consistent the whole way through and did not burn out really quick.
Value: stick e vapes Are Not Cheap, But Worth It
My local dispensary had stick e vape cartridges for $35. It is in the mid-high price range of THC oil cartridges out there. I am typically able to find Stiiizy vapes for $30 and that is a better deal. However, I do think the oil is better in the stick e vape cartridge than any of the Stiiizy carts that I have tried. In our Stiiizy review we found it uses is better vape technology than other carts. If this oil was used in the same hardware setup as Stiiizy, it would be superior. If I was at the dispensary and stick e vape was $35 and most other carts were $30, I definitely take stick e vape.
The back of the package.
In conclusion, this stick e vape review revealed a high quality oil in an efficient cart. Its as good as it gets for a 510 threaded cartridge. I would definitely buy one of their carts again and look forward to trying their other strains. Pesticide tests would be nice to have as well, but we could not locate those. I have asked stick e vape for tests and if they reply that information will be added to this post. You can learn more about their vape cartridges here.
Elevate CBD is one of the trusted brands in CBD products. Here we review Elevate CBD gum. Consuming CBD by way of gum is a fast way to get some quick relief. Not as effective as vaping or lozenges, but convenient. This Elevate CBD gum review reveals a quick fix for pain.
Standard Looking Gum – With CBD
Looks like a standard pack of gum.
Elevate CBD gum was very easy to review. I chewed it and felt the effects pretty quickly. I take CBD for pain issues and have to say it was effective. It was not as effective as the Elevate CBD lozenges though. They were the most effective CBD item for instant relief.
Relief In This Elevate CBD Gum Review Was Not Long But It Did Work For Quick Relief
The paint relief from the gum was a quick fix. It feels like a lower dose than other CBD products from Elevate I tried. If you need something right away it does the job. Vaping CBD is my usual method of ingesting CBD. After trying the lozenges I prefer that most of all. I would use this come occasionally if I needed something fast, did not have lozenges, and could vape.
What Is In Elevate CBD Gum?
Take a look at the picture below for a complete list of ingredients.
Not tons of ingredients, probably a good thing.
Elevate CBD gum has standard gum ingredients with CBD oil added. Sorbital is the standard main ingredient in gum. Stevia is used as a sweetener. Natural terpenes are also added to help taste.
CBD Gum Taste – Aight, But Was Not Expecting Much
The gum does not taste great or terrible. I kind of take this as a good sign it has a decent amount of CBD oil. Given the other ingredients are comparable to other gums, the CBD oil and terpenes are what are giving it the soso flavor. I did not expect great flavor out of a CBD gum so was not surprised here. Not a big fan of edible tastes either.
In conclusion, doing this Elevate CBD gum review revealed a good quality gum with ok taste and decent strength. It is not as strong as the Elevate lozenges, but better than some other CBD products I have tried.
The following data and information show the test results of brands of prefilled vape pen cartridges also known as oil pens. Pesticides are a constant issue in these cartridges and strength is often incorrectly claimed. These tests are both for pesticides and residual solvents. Please note that the results are those taken at the date listed on the test. Testing is becoming mandatory in more states so in the future many of these same vapes may be clean or already be clean now.
Much thanks to @dat_dude41510, @dankbustersofficial (deleted account), @dabpengod2, and @thedojaapp on Instagram for allowing us to use their test results and starting awareness about this. We are including other test results as they become available. Cartridges’ results will be in alphabetical order by brand name. The FAIL indicates a fail on pesticides. Strength was also tested, but that can vary slightly test to test, so we did not put a FAIL if only strength was off. The cartridges tested are from California. A full list of cartridges that tested clean from this list is listed at the bottom of this page. We have recently partnered with cannabis lab consultants Digamma Consulting to provide more tests and should have these results up soon.
710 King Pen fails the test for pesticides. See our full 710 King Pen review.
Alpine Vapor Pesticides Test – FAIL
Alpine fails test for pesticides. Close up of the results.
Below is the full sheet of results for Alpine Vapor showing strength tested as well. You will see it comes in pretty weak at 33% THC. This is the Skywalker OG cartridge.
AkAlpine Vapor is pretty weak and also dirty.
Alpine Vapor has been in the game a long time, we expected better. See our full Alpine Vapor review.
Apex Labs Pesticides Test – FAIL
Here we have the lab result for Apex Labs – Tangie Sativa cartridge. Beware of this cartridge because this is one of the dirtiest that is out there. The result shows positive for 9 pesticides over the legal CA limit. Check more here.
Bloom Farms Vape Pesticides Test – PASS
Bloom farms test on 12/05/2017 came up clean. See below.
Bloom came out with a new test published on the back of their cartridge. Passed for pesticides. See below.
Coming in clean, yay!
It is good to see things are turning around for Bloom Brands, but we do keep a record of previous tests, as shown below.
Bloom is riding dirty.
Glad they came through clean recently.The oil came up dirty for pesticides in this test on 12/20/2017. At least it is pretty strong. Bloom Brands is not to be confused with Bloom Farms below, which tested clean.
Brass Knuckles Pesticides Test – Current PASS, Previous FAIL
Brass Knuckles has had their vape oil tested two times since and have passed. SC Labs is being sued in the Brass Knuckles lawsuit. Currently, Brass Knuckles has switched testing providers and that information is shown below. There are other tests as well, but they passed too, so we are showing one for simplicity.
Brass Knuckles cart in Strawberry Cough
Current Passing Test
Comes out clean, page 1.Comes out clean, page 2.
Previous Failing Test
Previous test was a fail.
Brass Knuckles vapes have been exposed for pesticides before, but now it is passing which is great! They taste good and deliver good strength. Check out our Brass Knuckles review for more info.
CaliCarts Pesticides Test – FAIL
A warning to anyone planning to get this black market cartridge. This CaliCarts tested positive for 19 pesticides. It also tested positive for Lead and Mercury but within CA legal limits. Just don’t risk your health on this one.
And here’s the alarming lab result.
California Dab Company Pesticides and Residual Solvents Test – FAIL
California Dab Company’s Cannabis Infused Vape Cartridge – Sour Apple will do good with its 67.5% strength. Unfortunately, we all have to be wary specially if we still have to know whether the company is licensed or not.
California Dab Company – Sour Apple Cannabis Infused Vape Cartridge
Below test result shows 67.5% THC content.
In terms of strength, 67.5% is considered okay.
Tested positive to contain 7 CAT 1&2 pesticide, would you still sesh on it?
Test result shows pesticide contents.
Cap’n Crunch Pesticide and Heavy Metal Test – FAIL
We have here a lab test result from BelCosta Labs for the Cap’n Crunch – Blueberry Pancake Crunch. This one failed the Pesticides test.
Cereal Carts Pesticides and Strength Test – FAIL
Cereal Carts have provided official lab results with images of the actual cartridge, Honey Nut Cheerios.
Shown above, Cereal Carts has failed the pesticide test. Containing 5 different types of pesticide and a low of 68% THC
Dank Vapes Jack Herer Pesticides and Strength Test – FAIL, Additional Result For Hardcore OG – FAIL
Again we’ve looked into test results of Dank Vapes and we have the new packaging shown below. As the test showed below, it came out dirty and was tested positive for 1 pesticide over the CA legal limit.
Dank Vapes Jack Herer Packaging
Keep in mind that there is no ‘real’ Dank vape company. Anyone can buy this packaging online and fill it themselves.
Certificate of Analysis for Dank Vapes
Dank Vapes tested positive for Fenhexamid as shown
It also tested positive for LEAD but within the CA legal limit. FENHEXAMID – is a synthetic floral fungicide that is used to control plant pathogens. Fenhexamid exposure is detrimental to respiratory systems, digestive tract, muscular system, and the central nervous system. This synthetic fungicide may also induce severe eye and skin irritations.
Update: Below we have another lab result for the Dank Vapes Hardcore OG. This one also failed the test for pesticides, showing 11 pesticides that are outside the CA legal limit. Check for yourself:
Dank Vapes Pesticides and Strength Test – FAIL
Dank Vapes pesticides result is finally out however it should be stated that there aren’t any pictures to show the actual item. Only direct lab results are shown below.
Dank tested positive in at least 5 types of pesticides. Bad news for Dank lovers out there.
The Dank Vapes strength test is shown below.
Dank Vapes strength test result is 70%.
The results shown above came from PSI Labs through Permafrostlabs. Although it should be noted that no pictures of the actual items tested were shown. There’s a big chance they tested a fake Dank cartridge as they are made available everywhere. It’s really hard for us to verify this test yet.
Dank Vapes Pesticides and Strength Test – PASS
So I went straight ahead to PSI Labs and here’s the result from their website. Also, shoutout to Zack for pointing this out.
Below is a screenshot from PSI’s page showing Dank Vapes’ King Louie test result. Results showed 65.15% total THC.
Dank Vapes King Louie with 65% total THC.
Below shows the indication of a pesticide-free concentrate.
Test results showed no foreign materials, pests, mold or fungus for Dank Vapes.
Dark Hawk Pesticides and Strength Test – FAIL
Dark Hawk lab results show that it is pretty weak at 70.66% THC. It also failed for 2 different pesticides. We have here a picture of Dark Hawk.
Here we can see the lab results for Dark Hawk – Ice Cream.
Delta 9 Pesticides and Residual Solvents Test – previous FAIL / Deltamax 2.0 PASS
Delta 9’s vape cartridges came in pretty strong at 76.5%. However, they failed for 5 different pesticides. Below is a picture of what a Delta 9 vape cartridge looks like.
Cartridges from Delta 9 may be riding dirty.
Below are the strength and residual solvents test. Delta 9 passed the residual solvents test.
Delta 9 THC cartridges have pretty good strength.
Pesticides are shown below for Delta 9 in the test results.
Failing for 5 pesticides is not a good look for Delta 9.
Deltamax 2.0 Pesticides Test – PASS
We have here the Deltamax 2.0 – Strawberry AK passing the pesticide test. This is expected as per @dojaapp since its coming from a fully licensed dispensary in CA.
DynaPuff Pesticides Test – FAIL
Dyna Puff Tangerine Dream
DynaPuff came in dirty for a wide range of pesticides in their test. See below.
DynaPuff tests dirty for pesticides.
The strength test for DynaPuff was very surprising. It came in super weak with a 16% cannabinoid profile.
DynaPuff is one of the weakest vape carts out there.
Eden Extracts Carts Pesticides Test – PASS
On our recent review on Eden Extracts we’ve discussed how Eden stands out from the crowd in so many ways. From its incredibly high-quality distillate and amazingly good in-house designed cartridges. Below, you’ll see the test result for Eden Extracts.
Eden came out strong and clean as shown on the test results below. It’s great they are keeping everything clean and the strength is the same as it says on the packaging.
ExoticCarts Pesticides Test – FAIL, Additional Result FAIL
Exotic Carts testing result is out. One of the most popular vape cartridges right now and widely pirated. Tested positive for 13 pesticides under Category 1&2. A cartridge with this much contaminants, would you still try it?
Has widespread availability but you might want to avoid this brand as much as possible.
Here’s the pesticides test results of Exotic Carts. As datdude41510 mentioned, a THC profile wouldn’t matter for a stuff that pops out at least 13 different pesticides and fungicides.
Exotic Carts is highly contaminated as shown in this result.As expected of a black market/street cart, it tested positive of pesticides.
Flavorz Pesticide Test – FAIL
This particular packaging was purchased at semi-legit but not BCC licensed shop in CA.As shown by @TheDojoApp, Flavorz has failed in their lab results.Flavorz results show lead, which causes developmental delays, abdominal pain, neurologic changes and irritability.
Flavorz lab results show very negative here, displaying for 16 pesticides and lead over the La legal limit.
FlavRx Pesticides Test – FAIL, Additional Result FAIL
FlavRx came out with weak and dirty cartridges. It comes in at less than 60% THC. No extra charge for the pesticides. It should be noted that FlavRx also has cartridges in Nevada, and there if it tests dirty they don’t sell. So it might still be safe to vape in NV.
Update: We have here another lab result from their old packaging. This one is for the Gorilla Glue. Unfortunately, this one also failed for pesticides test. It shows that it contains 3 pesticides that are over the CA legal limit. Below is the lab result.
Update: FlavRx has recently rebranded to Flav. Check out our Flav cartridge review for more information.
Flight Farms Pesticides Test – Pass
Datdute41510 tested this and came out clean. When the actual test shot is available we will post it as well.
Flight Farms came back clean and strong.
At 81% cannabinoids, Flight Farms came in strong and clean.
Friendly Farms Residual Solvent Test – PASS
Here we have a lab result for Friendly Farms that shows it passed the Residual Solvent test. The only thing that bothers us is that it contains 2066.67 ppm of n-Butane. Its still within CA legal limit of 5000 ppm per gram but still, this is somewhat alarming.
See the lab result below:
Heavy Hitters Pesticides Test – FAIL, Additional Result PASS
Heavy Hitters came in fairly strong at 71% THC. Pesticides not looking good though. The test is of the Girl Scout Cookies strain vape cart.
At least Heavy Hitters has some strength.
Another disappointment as HH is pretty strong and seemed like a good value. See our in-depth Heavy Hitters review for more info.
Adding to this another product from Heavy Hitters was tested, it is the Sky Walker OG and the bad news is, the pesticide test failed. Although it has a good amount of THC on it Heavy Hitters should make it safe as well. You may check the results below.
Sky Walker OG
Below is the disappointing result of the most recent pesticides and solvents test. Heavy Hitters fails again.
Unsafe…
We have another addition of one most recent pesticide test for HH. This time they got a PASS for the Northern Lights – Indica strain. Hopefully, this will continue with their coming products.
Heliosphere Solutions Heavy Metal Test – PASS
Here we have a Heavy Metal Test result for the Heliosphere Solution – Sour Tsunami Glass. They’re one of the promising brands to look for this 2020. Check the result here:
Himalaya Pesticides Test – Pass
Himalaya has a wide variety of cartridges from different strains, to name a few they are the Strawberry Cough and Super Silver Haze from the Sativa strain. Below you will see the THC and Pesticide tests of the two featured cartridges.
Strawberry CoughSuper Silver Haze
You can check the test for your self to prove that the cartridges are made safe and has enough strength.
Himalaya Rattlesnake Diesel Pesticides Test- Pass
Himalaya vapor packaging
Himilaya is a small batch company reigning from norcal, creating strain specific, clean meds at affordable prices. Previously we had a test result of Himalaya Vapor and it came out clean. Again, Himalaya has proven itself and still came out clean through all the tests made.
Test result for Himalaya vapor showing how clean it is
Results show active cannabinoids with THC: 78.2% CBG: 2.2%, CBC .8%, CBD .28%. Also it’s tank construction is made out of glass and ceramic manufactured by ikrusher . This oil is some of the best you’ll ever try. This Company uses cannabis derived only terpenes, and zero terpene diluents or solvents. They source norcal outdoor flower, and extract it themselves, and refine it for a cartridge.
Honey Cut Pesticides Test- PASS
Honey cut oil
40% distillate? there’s an official COA on this bullshit from belcostalabs now. but have all the compounds found in this diluting agent been tested for what they may turn into when heated?
COA for honey cut
Cartridges put out temperatures of over 350 degrees Fahrenheit. That intense blast of heat can change the chemical structure of some compounds. such as a common pesticide: myclobutanil that turns into hydrogen cyanide when burned.
so thehoneycut where’s the ingredients list?
HoneyVape Pesticides Test – Pass
Still looking for the original test and will add when available.
HoneyVape consistently comes up clean.
Hitone Pesticides Test – FAIL
Hitone is a brand out of the L.A. area.
Hitone is riding dirty folks.
Besides failing the pesticides test, the oil is not super weak at 63% THC.
Ignite Sunset Sherbet Cartridge Pesticides Test – PASS
Ignite Cannabis Co. makes cartridges, nugs and pre rolls. Their Sunset Sherbet vape cart has been tested and came out clean of pesticides. However, we are unable to show its cannabinoid profile and residual solvent results.
Ignite Cannabis Co. – Sunset Sherbet Cartridge
The test results below show Ignite’s Sunset Sherbet is totally clean from pesticides.
Ignite’s Sunset Sherbet vape cart is pesticides free.
Interstate 710 Pesticides Test – PASS
One of the few to pass! THC not super strong, but I would take clean over strong any day.
Test reveals this vape cart’s oil is free from pesticides.
This brand might not be available everywhere, but they do come up clean.
Jetty Extracts Pesticides Test – PASS
Jetty Extracts comes away with some clean stuff that also is strong.
Jetty comes in clean and strong.
The THC content was advertised at 3% higher. However, this is a small enough variation within reason. Would like to try Jetty oil in a Stiiizy style setup.
Kingpen Pesticides and Heavy Metal Test – Current FAIL, Previous PASS
Kingpen claims that their oils are distilled 5 times to ensure that it passes tests. The lab results that we have here are for their Jack Herer strain, which is named after the renowned marijuana activist, Jack Herer. Combining a Haze hybrid with a Northern Lights #5 and Shiva Skunk cross, Sensi Seeds created Jack Herer hoping to capture both the cerebral elevation associated with sativas and the heavy resin production of indicas. Its rich genetic background gives rise to several different variations of Jack Herer, each phenotype bearing its own unique features and effects. However, consumers typically describe this 55% sativa hybrid as blissful, clear-headed, and creative.
Kingpen Jack Herer carts
As shown in the lab results below, KP Jack Herer passed for heavy metals. There were no issues with the THC profile coming at 82.075%. It was slightly higher than what the product claims, which is 70%.
The heavy metal testing shows all passed results.
King Pen Jack Herer Lab Results
Here we have the lab result for KP Super Lemon Haze and KP Gelato cartridge. These are black market cartridges that’s why we cannot test it for Pesticide and Heavy Metals. But if you will see the result, both of them has a Total THC that is not close to what they claim in the box.
Korova Super Silver Haze – PASS
This test result came was shared to us by Korova. The test results show that Korova Super Silver Haze came off clean and strong. As you can see in the summary, Korova passed in all types of tests. It has a total cannabinoids of 91.95%. Total THC is 86.94% which is pretty strong.
To know more about this product, check out our review on Korova cartridges.
Here’s a summary of the test.
Kurvana Vape Pesticides Test – Current FAIL, Previous PASS
So, this test result was pulled out from Kurvana’s website. The test lab results show it tested positive on cumene and o-xylene. As per Wikipedia, “The main effect of inhaling xylene vapor is depression of the central nervous system (CNS), with symptoms such as headache, dizziness, nausea and vomiting. At an exposure of 100 ppm, one may experience nausea or a headache. At an exposure between 200-500 ppm, symptoms can include feeling “high”, dizziness, weakness, irritability, vomiting, and slowed reaction time.”
Test results showing levels of o-xylene and cumeneKurvana test result
Previously, Kurvana’s test results came off strong and clean. The test below was of the Blueberry strain vape cart.
Clean and pretty strong.
Kurvana’s ASCND line shows great promise. Coming with an impressively strong with 87.95% cannabis content. See the test results below.
Strong content for this oneKurvana ASCND is pesticide free
See our full Kurvana vape review here.Should be noted that’s a review of the original Kurvana. Newer versions are supposed to be better.
LA Kush Pesticides Test – Previous PASS, Recently FAIL
LA Kush comes from the same makers of Flight Farms. Good strength at 79% and it passed clean for pesticides on the original test. New tests now show it coming up dirty.
LA Kush makes clean and strong vape carts.
Below is the new test results for strength pesticides for LA Kush. It came out pretty weak for THC content, but it did pass for solvents.
These cartridges are pretty weak at 48.5% THC.
Below is the pesticides test for LA Kush. This time it failed.
Failing for pesticides, LA Kush goes to the dirty column.
Unfortunately, LA Kush went from a previous pass to a fail.
Lion Extracts Pesticides Test – FAIL
Lion Extracts will give you a good hit at 72% THC. But, never good when it gives you pesticides as well.
Lion Extracts failed with 4 pesticides.
Mario Carts Pesticides Test – Previous FAIL, Additional Result FAIL
A new product is added here and it is the Mario Carts Strawberry Pie. But sadly the pesticide test failed. And for the THC content, we will consider it as low at nearly 70%. To check it yourself here are the results below.
Looks simple… Mario Carts!
Here is the result of the pesticide test.
How sad for Mario…
THC content…well a bit low for the strength.
I thought Mario is Strong but looks a bit weak…
Well, let see if Mario Carts will improve their cartridges.
Update: Here we have an additional lab result for Mario Carts Skunk OG. Not only that this one failed the pesticide test again, the result also shows that this one contains Lead that is 33 times the legal limit allowed by CA Law.
Health is always a choice. We don’t want to force you on what to smoke, we’re just here for you to be informed.
Mimosa Exotic Carts Pesticides Test – FAIL
Here we have a lab result for the exotic cart “Mimosa”. This cart tested positive for 9 pesticides of which 4 were over the CA legal limit.
Let’s see the breakdown of its lab result here:
You will see below all the types of pesticides found on the said sample of cart.
MKX Sunset Sherbet Cart Pesticides Test- FAIL
The Midknightxpress brand is not safe. As shown on the test on the second page by PSI Labs, this cart has failed it’s test. And the thing is they’ve been producing products since 2017.
Here’s the test result by PSI Labs which gives us proof and reason to stay away from this brand.
Moxie Pesticides Test – FAIL
This was surprising. Moxie is known for making exceptional quality extracts. Turns out they have pesticides in them, as Moxie failed the pesticides test. This is a California cart Luckily, we used a Nevada cartridge in our Moxie cartridge review. In NV they do batch testing, so Moxie is probably still safe over there.
Strength test for Moxie came out good with a 77% cannabinoid profile. Still would not hit it if its dirty though. They also should update their cartridge style.
Strength is good for Moxie.
NUJ Premium Jack – PASS
The pesticide test was done on the Jack Herer strain of NUG. Fortunately, they passed the lab test. There were five tests done it total for this. NUG Premium Jack has a strength of 68.23% which is pretty good. It contains 64.78% THC. See the full test results below.
NUG provides full transparency on testing
Good thing that it also passed the test for solvents.
Another test that was done was for chemical residues. NUG passed on that area as well.
Go and check out our NUG Vape Cartridge review for more information on this brand and what we thought of it.
OCPharms Pesticide Test – FAIL
OCPharms fails for five pesticides and it’s strength is a joke. Not that much more THC than regular weed.
I’ll take datdude41510’s word for it.
Here are the test results:
Only 33.01% THC content for OCPharmsOCPharms fails on a couple of chemicals here
Platinum Vape Pesticides Test – Fail Currently, Previous Fail

A clean result is nice to find.

Clean across the board.
The last page is the lab certifying the tests.
Signed and approved, Potters cartridges are clean
Potters Cannabis Co comes through strong and clean.
Private Reserve Pesticides Test – FAIL
This Brass Knuckles look-alike tested positive for Myclobutanil which converts to Hydrogen Cyanide when heat is applied. Please beware! This is straight poison.
Here’s the lab result that shows other pesticides present in this cart:
Raw Garden Dosi Punch x Clementine Cartridge – PASS
Raw Garden released this Dosi Punch x Clementine creating a very interesting terpene profile which has a total Cannabinoids of 93.59%! Raw Garden also came out clean and free from pesticides.
This hits hard and has the perfect high in it, well that explains the 87.29% THC content, 4.8% CBG and terpenes totalling at 5.9%.
Raw Garden Lime Mojito Pesticide Test – PASS
Raw Garden Lime Mojito cartridge came strong at 87.71 total active Cannabinoids and also free from pesticides which is great!

Rove Vape Pesticide Test – PASS
In our Rove cart review we found some strong, thick oil. Well turns out it really is strong and it is free from pesticides.
Rove comes in clean and strong.
The few, the proud, the clean. Rove is delivering quality and decent strength at 70% THC. In Addition to this a test was made with Rove Featured Farms and it is not a surprise that it is strong and safe.
ROVE featured farms
Below are the Pesticide test result.
Pesticide Test…SAFE!
And here is the THC content test…
Look how strong it is…

Savage Sticks Wedding Cake and God’s Gift varieties lab results are out. Both popped pesticides.

Savage Sticks Gods Gift tested positive with Myclobutanil – 20x more than the limit set by Licensing and Regulatory Affairs.
Savage Sticks God’s Gift tested positive with Myclobutanil.
Select Oil Pesticides Test- PASS
Select Oil comes out clean.
See our Select Oil vape review. The Select Elite cartridge was used in this test and it came out clean. Strength was decent too.
In addition to this, another product from Select Elite cartridge has taken the test and passed, it is the Select Elite Island Sweet Skunk. Below you will see the results of the test for pesticides and thc content of this said cartridge.
Select Elite Island Sweet Skunk
The test for pesticides came out that it is safe to use.
Pesticides test…Pass!
And for the THC content… You will not regret it, it has a very good amount in it.
At 86% THC content, you will love this…
Sure thing that the Select Elite cartridges are doing good.
These cartridges came to be strong, having a high THC level percentage.
Solace Pesticides Test – FAIL
Here we have a lab test result for Solace cartridges. It tested positive for 5 pesticides but only 1 came in over the CA legal limit. Stay healthy and remember that your health is always a choice!
Lab result shows that it contains Bifenazate – this is sold under the name Floramite used to control mites. In our industry, it’s commonly used to control spider mites.
Space Vape Test – PASS
Space Vape
As shown below. Space Vape came out at with a positive test. Passing with 91% THC as well as being pesticide free.
These cartridges came out to be very strong and potent.
Stiiizy Pesticides Test – Previous PASS, Now FAIL For Benzene
Stiiizy Premium THC Pods
The latest Stiiizy test failed for Benzene, which is a solvent. See the below results.
That’s pretty disappointing. Stiiizy seemed like a really good product.
Stiiizy did not come out super strong. Maybe its strength is in the vape tech.
This vape might be more about its delivery system than the strength of its oil, but it does hit stronger than anything else we have tried as far as prefilled THC carts go.
Clean as a whistle. Sure does taste clean.
Stiiizy does pretty well and out of the box hits very strong. See our full Stiiizy review for more information.
Suicide Girls Pesticides Test – FAIL
Suicide Girls are getting dirty on pesticides.
Pretty strong at 70% THC, but it does not make up for the pesticides in it.
Supernova Pesticides and Heavy Metal Test – Current PASS, Previous PASS
Here we have the lab result for Supernova – Maui Wowie strain. It passed both categories of pesticide and heavy metal testing.
We now have here the lab result for Supernova – Green Apple OG. It tested positive for 2 pesticides. Even though they’re not carcinogenic, they should still not be having them on their carts.
Below shows the lab result for Supernova – Peach Dream. This one passed the pesticide test unlike the previous one. We hope that they stay consistent with what they do on their products.
We have another lab result entry here for Supernova – Dosi Mango. This also shows that Supernova is already being consistent with what they do since this one also passed the pesticide test.
Updated 01/27/2020: Here’s another addition to Supernova’s consistent performance on passing the pesticide test. We have here a lab result for Supernova – Mandarin Cookies.

It was bad that Supreme G Extracts were called out before for faking test results. Hopefully, this is now a chance for them to redeem themselves.
Below are the fake lab results that Supreme G Extracts posted this lab result. The reason why we tagged them as FAIL the last time.
Supreme G Extracts posted this lab result. It’s fake so we tagged this result as FAIL.DatDude4510 – “So supreme posted some test results from Steep hill showing that they have clean product.

Supreme Hybrid Pesticides Test – FAIL
Supreme brand may sound interesting but for its cartridge the Supreme Hybrid there is a different story. A test was conducted and the result is not good for the safety of the consumers. Below you can see the test results.
Check this out this is the Pesticides test.
Unsafe!
For the THC content, let’s say that it needs some improvements.
LOW…
Let us hope that Supreme will improve its cartridge.
THClear Vape Pesticides Test – FAIL
Not out of the clear on pesticides.
Strength is OK, pesticides are not OK.
The Clear Pesticides and Residual Solvents Test – PASS
The Clear with their Classic Variety in Golden Goat flavor cleared on any pesticides. Only problem is it might not be strong enough to a regular user with sub 50% Total Cannabinoids. Check out the product below.
The Clear Classic – Golden Goat flavor
Below is the strength and residual solvents test. The Clear with 48.9% total.
The Clear with sub 50% total.
The Clear cleared on pesticides. See results below.
The Clear came out clean of pesticides.
The Clear came out clean without any trace of Category 1 & 2 pesticides but might be too weak for regular users. I’d say to each his own as some want to last the whole day vaping while some choose to puff with instant big hits.
The House Brand Pesticides Test – FAIL
This vape pen called “The House Brand” failed the pesticide test. This is another Myclo-infused pen. It tested positive for 5 pesticides and FAILED for MYCLOBUTANIL. By now, we should all know and be aware that when heated it converts to Hydrogen Cyanide. See below the lab results:
Treebase Klear Pesticides Test – FAIL
Pretty dirty but strength OK.
Strength not too bad at 62% THC. Dirty on the pesticides.
VVS Vape Pen Pesticides Test – FAIL
Sad results on pesticides but it is strong.
VVS does come in with some really strong THC. The delivery system of its dispoable battery is what made it seem so weak in our VVS vape pen review. 83% THC is the highest on this list.
Waky Willy Pesticide Test – FAIL
The results show to have a really low percentage of THC.Waky Willy cartridge showing negative results and present pesticides
Waky Wily Sunset Sherbert tested negative, with a low of 59% THC and with 4 different pesticides.
WVapes Pesticides Test – FAIL
Decent strength.
Strength is decent for WVapes. Below is the pesticide test.
Riding dirty on four items.
Being pesticide-free is more important than being strong, but dirty is dirty.

In this review, we give an honest account of our experience with CBDistillery Terpsolate. Unlike THC, CBD is a non-psychoactive compound of marijuana. CBD affects each person differently, so assess your individual needs before choosing an appropriate product.
All CBDistillery products are grown under natural sunlight, outdoors with organic practices, and are made from Non-GMO, Pesticide Free, Industrial Hemp.
1 Gram CBD / CBDistillery Terpsolate
Ingredients: Anhydrous hemp oil, terpenoids
“99% Cannabidiol Isolate derived from stalks, seeds and stems of the highest quality industrial hemp in the world”
CBDistillery Ingredients
CBDistillery Terpsolate is a blend of 99+% pure solvent free CBD isolate and strain specific terpenes. These fragrant hemp-derived terpenes give the CBDistillery flavor we tried, Bubba Kush an intense forest smell and (bitter) lemon flavor. Think Pinesol and you’re on the right tracks. However, after reviewing many different accounts of CBDistillery Terpsolate, several people also recorded a distinct cherry flavor. So, this supports the claim that everyone experiences CBD differently.
Whether you like lemon or cherry flavors is a different matter. The flavor represents the quality terpenes used in this CBD product, and that’s a good thing. CBDistillery isolate comes in powder and slab versions, they are the same product in different forms. We got the powder version of CBDistillery Terpsolate. I felt better just by looking at the beautiful, clean, white dust, it’s different to anything I’ve seen. it.
White Powder Bubba Kush CBD Isolate
How Did We Take It?
As CBDistillery Terpsolate is already activated, it can be taken orally under the tongue, and bydabbing. When taking CBD isolate under the tongue, substances diffuse into the blood through tissues, this is a fast and easy method of ingestion.
Myself and another team member tried the CBDistillery Terpsolate for the review, both in the form of a dab, as well as under the tongue. We each had a different experience, but a similar result in the end.
Results of The CBDistillery Terpsolate Review
When taken as a low-temp dab, CBDistillery Terpsolate gave us whispy clouds and a lot of flavor. I didn’t feel much of anything at first, but my CBD test partner felt an immediate sense of relaxation. He said it felt like a mellow heady high – uplifted but not stoned, describing it as “anxiety melting away.”
A while later we took a dose under the tongue, and yet again my partner reported an almost immediate relaxing effect. Thinking initially that I felt nothing, I slowly realized that I was melting further and further into my chair. I was not stoned, but extremely relaxed and suddenly craving a snooze. This lasted for an hour or so, but the feeling went away much quicker than a regular THC dab.

Final Thoughts on CBDistillery Terpsolate
People absorb and metabolize substances extremely differently. So, though the effect of CBDistillery Terpsolate was almost the same – the rate at which we experienced it varied. Some people have mentioned a feeling of alertness, which neither me or my partner experienced. I actually felt a little spaced out at first, but this didn’t last too long.
Overall it was a good experience. It was a nice change to feel both mental and physical relaxation, without being super high or completely couch-locked. However, at $55 (sale price) for 1 gram of CBD, the expense could get high, especially for someone like me that dabs daily.
But, if you’re looking for alternative pain relief, general relaxation, or to help with anxiety, CBDistillery Terpsolate is a winner.

I first saw Potters cartridges on Weedmaps. The delivery service I frequently order from had added this new CCell prefilled vape cartridge on their menu. It was the glass mouthpiece that caught my attention that ended up being plastic. Already, before I even vape the Potters cartridge, the review was off to a bad start. The packaging itself was some of the best I’ve seen from prefilled vape pen carts. I was surprised to see that the actual product I received was different than the image on Weedmaps for this company. I decided not to complain to my delivery driver because I thought perhaps after this Potters cartridge review it would turn out to be a nice product.
Potter’s updated their cartridges by May of 2018. We got a new version of their cartridge in the end of June 2018. This new version is much better. Although our initial review was not good, Potter’s has improved things substantially, and is now one of the better carts out there. It also is a bonus that Potter’s is one of the few companies that tested clean on our list of THC oil pen pesticides tests.
UPDATE 06/08/2018: Potters Cannabis Co has recently changed their formula and many of the new cartridges out there are made of this new, stronger formula. We will be updating the review soon to reflect the change. Potters also tests clean for pesticides which can be seen on our vape pen pesticide tests page.
UPDATE 07/02/2018: Post updated as we have now extensively tested the new formula. The cartridge is on the latest CCell hardware. THC strength is now at 80%.
The Potters cartridge looked different from what I saw on Weedmaps.
Potter’s cartridges now do come in latest style CCell cartridges with 5 holes. See below.
This is probably the best non-pod cartridge you can get.
Potters cartridge THC oil taste has greatly improved
The initial Potters cartridge review didn’t result in a high score for taste because it had a medicine taste to it when vaped. I didn’t like the first cartridge Sour Diesel strain from Potters Cannabis Co. and it reminded me of another product I’ve had that was also ethanol extracted. The new cartridge was Jack Herer, but it is more than just the strain that was changed from the previous cartridge. The terpenes added to its cannabis extract oil have been changed. The entire formula is different.
On Potter’s new cartridge, taste was completely changed. They have terpenes in it but not too much, as THC is still at 80%. The hardware change definitely is helping the taste too. The new CCELLs taste great, and that is exactly what Potter’s is using. I am not sure that they are using ethanol extracted cannabis anymore either,
The packaging looked great on the Potters vape cart.
Medium High Price Range, But Worth It For Clean Oil
The new THC oil inside of these prefilled cartridges is a lot better than the previous version. Potter’s went from being one of the worst carts to one of the best carts with their recent up date. A half gram cost $30 USD from my local cannabis delivery service, which is reasonable given the quality and that it tests clean for pesticides. I have noticed a trend on some vapes, the flashier the packaging most of the time the product turns out to be less impressive. That was the case with the old Potter’s cart, but the new one lives up to the flashy packaging. Also, every prefilled cartridge I tried that came in a plastic tube turned out to be no good.
Potters cartridge review reveals high strength THC.
I couldn’t find any lab test for the total amount of THC in these prefilled cartridges. Nor was there any information on the nice packaging. The new packaging displays this information on the bottom as shown below.
80.3% THC is pretty strong!
The THC oil is definitely stronger now on the updated cartridge. It is on par with Brass Knuckles vape cartridges and Heavy Hitters carts, but still not as strong as Stiiizy pods. I would bet this oil in a Stiiizy style pod would be stronger than Stiiizy’s own oil though. This prefilled vape cartridge is stronger than others I have reviewed such as the Pax Era pods, Alpine Vapor, and Gold Drop cartridges that all cost the same or more as Potters Cannabis Co. cartridges.
Potters cannabis cartridge uses CCell vaping technology that is very efficient
I have noticed a trend from prefilled cartridge companies switching to CCell cartridges. This has been seen with Kurvana vape cartridges and Americanna cartridges too. As I stated above Weedmaps shows a different image for Potters cartridges, I didn’t know I was going to get the new CCell cartridge. The CCell cartridge makes it easy to vape huge clouds with a box mod. I didn’t have to turn the volts up to experience it. The newer version of the Potter’s cartridge also has the latest CCell cartridge.
Number of hits vary on the size of your hits.
This CCell cartridge allows for big hits without much effort. It’s easy to take some huge clouds at a higher voltage but it won’t be as smooth as taking huge clouds from a Stiiizy pod. Flavor is, of course, sacrificed with high temps. On lower temps the flavor is great! The CCell cartridge can be good if it has some good cannabis extract oil inside of it, which this new version definitely does.
Value is good on Potters vape cart with new formula.
This cart presents a lot better value with the new fomula. Flavor is better and strength is on par with Brass Knuckles vape, Justdab, and Heavy Hitters. The packaging is nice and the most important part is pesticides. Potter’s has tested clean for pesticides. Cannot say that for everyone else.
Tried New Formula, And It Was Great
In conclusion, this CCell cartridge vape pen did not impress on flavor on the first version. After getting the new cartridge everything was greatly improved. What initially was dissapointing now turned out to be one of the better cartridges out there. I do think that this same oil from the new blend put into a pod-style vaporizer would hit extremely hard as well. I will be looking to see if there is a Potter’s distilalte syringe in the future. The fact that they come up clean and now deliver a strong oil on the latest CCell, makes the Potter’s Cannabis Co. vape cartridge a great choice.
Our in-depth Dab Face syringe review was a pleasant experience. We decided to also answer the question many people may have on their mind and that was, is it possible to refill a vape cartridge with this product? “This product was not made to refill cartridges, it will not work.” That is what the packaging says on the back. I purchased this Dab Face syringe, also known as the Dab Face App, to refill a Brass Knuckles cartridge. I had confidence I could refill the cartridge with the Dab Face syringe and my prediction was accurate to an extent. It was easy to refill and didn’t take longer than a minute which can be seen in the video below.
Great packaging and some clean looking oil.
My first attempt vaping the Dab Face cannabis oil from their syringe resulted in me not getting any vape. I then attempted to vape for a second time after warming it up again and I successfully got a good hit. I used a lighter to get the cannabis oil to move and that worked great. Unfortunately, I was not able to finish vaping this good cannabis oil because the Brass Knuckles cart had come apart and the oil leaked out of it.
Great Dab Face applicator design makes it easy to use.
The design quality impressed me the most with how simple it was to use. The dab applicator is very effective at dispensing cannabis oil onto joints or backwoods. I was able to squeeze out some of the last of it onto a backwood which made it much more potent. We now understand why its recommended on the packaging not to use this product to refill cartridges. We want to advise our readers not to try and refill their cartridges with this product. Put it on a blunt or a joint, much better use.
Strength is good on The Dab Face App but doesnt feel 80%.
Cannabis oil tested at 80% THC. It did not feel as strong as other oil in that range. I recently vaped a Brass Knuckles cartridge with lab results of 84% THC and it was significantly stronger than vaping Dab Face cannabis oil. It felt more like carts that ranked at 70% than anywhere near 80%. At the time of this writing I am vaping a 74% THC Cookies shatter on a this wax pen and it hits stronger than this Dab Face cannabis oil out of the Brass Knuckles cartridge, which despite its eventual failure, is a good cart.
Not impressed with the taste of the vape flavor.
Dab Face concentrates are thick cannabis oil which. It shows it’s not cut with any fillers, which is a good thing, but some added terpenes would be welcomed in this case. It’s not that the vaping flavor was bitter. It just wasn’t as enjoyable as many others I tried from different companies. It tastes like a budget cannabis oil with some decent THC strength. Another reason to throw it on a blunt, some flavorful flower will make up for the lack of flavor from the Dab Face syringe.
Price is the best part of the Dab Face syringe review and explains its shortcomings.
I purchased the Dab Face cannabis oil syringe from a dispensary in the Bay Area. They charged $20.00 plus a 30% tax for a total of $26.00. If you have a cartridge that is strong enough to vape thick cannabis oil this can save you money. A little dab of this can go a long way too. You don’t need to add too much to a blunt to make it stronger. Its a good add on at this price and makes sense why it is not as strong or flavorful as other more expensive items, it is cheaper to make.
Efficiency at dispensing cannabis oil is great!
The Dab face syringe applicator provides great control dispensing co2 oil. I added some to a Backwood I rolled and it was very efficient and easy to use. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to turn their joints stronger or take dabs without a mess. The syringe is very practical for applying to rolled up blunts and adding to your vape pen or dab rig.
Solvent free distillate process produces clean cannabis oil.
The cannabis oil extracted by Dab face concentrates look beautiful and taste great. I ate some to try it out in the morning before eating anything else and it has a pleasant flavor. I can definitely say this stuff is powerful enough to have you feeling its effect with only a little bit of it ingested.
Number of Hits is great in a cartridge.
I got a lot of hits using this cannabis oil to refill my Brass Knuckles cartridge. My Brass knuckles cartridge started to leak with this cannabis oil. It might have been because I kept using a lighter to warm the oil up. There are other refill cartridges available which may be able to vape this oil efficiently such as the new FlavRX cartridge.
In conclusion, I would buy this again if I was on a budget and needed to save money because its good enough for the price. I wouldn’t use it to refill a cartridge again after this Dab Face syringe review proved its much better for other applications. I would, however, recommend it as a dab applicator for your dab pen or to apply to a blunt. You can learn more about Dab Face here.
The Rove cartridge review was pleasant because it discovered a really good product. Rove cartridges are great for vaping really big vape clouds. This cartridge could be so much better. I am yet to find a perfect cartridge, like others this one had issues too. The prefilled cartridge from Rove could not vape the thick co2 oil inside of it until I used a lighter to liquefied the thick cannabis oil. After putting a flame close to the glass of the cartridge for a few seconds only then I was able to vape the biggest clouds.
Update 10/08/2018: We have determined that Rove uses the Liberty V-1 as its cartridge hardware. Cannabiotix vapes use the same too.
Update 05/13/2019: Rove has improved their cartridge and fixed the clogging issues.
Some of the strongest co2 oil I ever vaped from a prefilled cartridge.
The strength of the rove cartridge was impressive. It is one of the strongest I have hit. The lab test for the Gorilla Glue cartridge I tried out tested 78.09% THC and 89.87% total active cannabinoids. This co2 oil felt as strong as a Brass Knuckles cartridge if not stronger.
Brass Knuckles on the left, Rove cartridge on the right.
Taste of the cannabis oil when vaped was great!
The cannabis oil vaped had some great flavor profiles to it. Vaping the Gorilla Glue cartridge from Rove tasted great. I have smoked Gorilla Glue before and this cartridge from Rove had the same flavor of the actual cannabis. The official website of Rove brand states their cannabis oil isn’t cut with any filters, only terpenes and other natural flavors where added.
Price is a bit expensive but the cannabis oil makes it worth it.
The average cost of this prefilled cartridge is going for $40.00 a half gram in the Bay Area. The price doesn’t include the 30% cannabis tax in California, $52.00 would be the total for a half gram. A full gram would set you back over $100.00. I have seen a Half gram for $35.00 as the lowest price and that’s before the cannabis tax. I couldn’t find myself buying a whole gram when there are other options available for less and with the same strength. Americanna, Just Dab, Select Oil and Brass Knuckles are all cartridges I may consider instead.
Efficiency is both a success and failure with vaping performance.
The Rove cartridge performs great only when the cannabis oil has been warmed up with a lighter. It was very inconvenient when it wouldn’t vape without me having to put a flame to the glass of the prefilled cartridge. My friend’s Rove cartridge wasn’t hitting with any vape battery she tried. It only worked after I had shown her the lighter trick.
If the Rove cart is hitting right, it delivers awesome clouds. See the video below for proof of that.
Update: Latest packaging as of December 2020
We drop in to check on Rove once in awhile. We find them the same as last time, but their packaging has updated. Since Rove is such a heavily counterfeited brand, we think it’s important to keep up on current actual dispensary samples for comparison.

Rove Cartridge Review Discovers decent amount of hits but less than others.
Clouds coming out of the Rove vape cart are huge. This results in fewer overall hits. Vaping the Rove cartridge reminded me of taking a dab from a dab rig because of the huge clouds. If your looking for strength and a true dab pen experience this is your best option. It gets closer to a vape pen experience than the other prefills we have reviewed. I recommend for festivals such as Coachella or EDM events. I would buy this prefilled cartridge again. It’s a good product that needs to improve upon its cartridge so that it can vape its co2 oil efficiently.
In conclusion, the Rove cartridge review revealed a prefilled cartridge with some strong and clean c02 oil. Hits were strong. The stuck oil issue is fixable. Hits are awesome when they do come out after the quick fix. I recommend trying this vape cart out so you can feel the strength. You can learn more about Rove here.
Justdab Extracts might not advertise, but Dino locals know it's bomb.
The Justdab cartridge did not fail to impress.
You can taste the quality on this vape cart. Hits were smooth yet strong. Atomizer build is good and oil quality is excellent. We’ll go through the details of this vape cart in this Justdab Cartridge Review.
Update 5/2/2019: After reviewing a whole lot of carts, we have added Justdab to our list of the Best Cartridges in California.
Design and Build: More metal, less glass exposed.
The atomizer housing on the Justdab cartridge had more metal covering the glass than most other vape pen cartridges. I did not drop the item, but this does lead me to believe it could withstand a solid drop. The core of the atomizer appeared to be ceramic. The atomizer tasted clean until the very end. It was not burny or gross at the end, but you knew it was done. Overall, they picked a great cartridge to pair with their oil.
Nice packaging.
Oil Quality – It’s live resin.
Justdab Extracts claims everything is nug run and from 100% indoor flowers. The vape carts contain live resin, which is generally more expensive than shatter. I believe their claims. The oil had perfect viscosity and vaped evenly the whole way through. The oil does not have added flavors. I was using the Critical Jack strain on this cartridge review.
Strength of the Justdab cartridge is good
The Justdab cartridge is on point with the better pre-filled vape carts out there and one of the stronger ones I have tried. It beats the offerings from Kurvana and FlavRX substantially. Even though it’s made from live resin, I still have yet to see a cartridge that is as strong as a dab on a good vape penlike the Omicron v5 with straight shatter in it. After this vape I will try Justdab shatter next time I see it. Pre-fills are better than they were a few years ago, that is for sure.
High THC content on this Critical Jack strain vape.
Taste is pure. Nothing added.
The Justdab cartridge did not taste like any flavoring is added either via terpenes or fragrances. Personally I prefer this straight whaterver-it-is taste. I would think among our readership nobody likes fragrances, but some people like terpenes added like that saucy wax. Combine the clean live resin and the
Value: $30 for a half gram is good at this quality
The quality of the Justdab cartridge justifies them not making this cheap. I got mine for $30 at There are cheaper carts out there and they usually are not very good. Exceptions exist like the cheaper-per-mL Heavy Hitters carrtridge, but their have been claims of impurity issues for HH. Dollar for dollar on how medicated you get on this cart, the value is good.
The half gram lasted well and vaped evenly.
Efficiency: Down to the last drop!
Justdab chose a great quality cartridge that resulted in excellent efficiency. The atomizer appeared to be wickless with a ceramic core. Upon opening it everything looked of excellent quality. Do not open the cart until done. You might tear the O-ring. I tore it just by opening it, but not until I vaped the entire thing. The residue left over was minimal.
Overall: Justdab Cartridges Are Now A Favorite
When I go to the dispensary for a pre-fill and I see the options, I will be picking up Justdab vape cartridges if they got them. I hope they make their way into more shops soon. From oil quality and taste to the build quality of their cartridge, Justdab is on point. You can learn more about Justab here.
The VVS vape pen has some nice looking product packaging. They are trying to promote their disposable vape pen as a premium luxury product. I wasn’t too impressed by their premium luxury disposable wax pen. My favorite thing about this VVS vape pen review was the convenience of the product, unfortunately, after that, there wasn’t too much more I was impressed with. The design of the vape pen itself is nice however didn’t feel luxury or premium to me.
Update 01/16/2019 – VVS Presidential OG – Geoff:
After testing the VVS vape pen, I agree wholeheartedly with the original assessment. As far as premium and luxury go, there isn’t much to find. The idea is that you can get several uses by buying the VVS syringes for refills. As for the oil itself, it was flavorful and with strong effect. One gram, however, vapes up faster than most .5 gram cartridges.
Looking for a better THC oil vapes than VVS? Check out our picks for the best cartridges in CA.
Design and Quality is the same as some others.
The VVS Vape pen does not have a unique design, a friend of mine purchased a prefilled vape pen from another brand (thclear) that was the exact same design. Alpine Vapor uses the same vape pen. These versions are an improvement over what companies like Bumblebee are currently using. The hits are significantly bigger and the cannabis oil tastes great.
Geoff – VVS features their products, as other brands do, in these all-in-one disposable pens. They all use a similar design with the battery and cartridge being one piece. Screw off the top and they’re super easy to refill. Like the other designs, VVS disposable pens have a small window so you can see the level of the remaining oil. Note that the battery has a safety shut off with a very short window. You can just repress the button if you want an extended hit.
Strength was there with this VVS vape pen.
My favorite thing about reviewing the VVS vape pen review is the strength of its cannabis oil. It’s more potent than other disposable vape pens such as the Bumblebee vape pen. There is no information available about the exact THC amount in these wax pens. I prefer to have that data when selecting a cartridge.
Geoff – The concentrate is strong with the VVS Presidential OG vape pen. You are able to get big hits by resetting the battery a couple times. Like the original review, the VVS Presidential OG has no information about THC content.
VVS Presidential OG Refillable Vape Pen
Flavor was not bad, but not impressive either.
The taste reminded me of the Bumblebee. VVS vape pens have a fragrance added to them as stated on their website to allow for discreet vaping, but on the same page they say nothing is added. They could be referencing not having anything to additionally dilute, and not be including their fragrance. This strain really reminded of the flavor profiles of the strain J1 I tried from the Dab Face dab applicator. I am assumingterpenes are added for flavor.
Geoff – There’s nothing different, besides the strain, with the VVS Presidential OG. The flavor is enjoyable, but not superb. Hints of pine are all that is present with the earthy aroma taking over the palate.
Decent price for a full gram of potent cannabis oil.
There are many other disposable vape pens available for less that are superior. This pre-fill vape pen does not offer enough for me to want to buy it again. The average selling price for a VVS vape pen is $45.00 for one gram in the Bay Area. If you have a battery better options are there, but if you do not this might be a convenient option.
Geoff – Price in North San Diego County is just a bit lower than in the Bay area at $40.00. This may be a clearance price at this point. This is for a one gram pen, but the fact that it vapes up so fast drives the value of the pricing way down. $10.00 – $15.00 would be more reasonable.
Efficiency at vaping huge clouds is great.
The VVS vape pen battery lasted long to my amazement. The battery lasted for three days of consistent usage. I had other disposable vape pens such as hmbdlt, now known as Dosist, battery die with oil remaining in the cartridge.
Geoff – Perhaps when you compare the VVS vape pen to other similar brand styles, the oil lasts longer. But head to head with most disposable cartridges, it doesn’t last anywhere near as long. This is really a huge disappointment with the VVS vape pen in general.
Clean premium cannabis oil without anything extra in the ingredients.
VVS claims their oil is pure without any dilutents added. I couldn’t find any lab results online for this VVS vape pen review. Many other disposable pre-filled cartridges or vape pens don’t only claim it but back it up with lab results online. A great example is Kurvana including lab results with their cartridges. While at a poker game with some friends I found myself hitting this pen more than the Brass Knuckles Cartridge I had with me.
Geoff – There isn’t any new information to report with the VVS Presidential OG pen. You are welcome to visit the VVS website, though their homepage is under construction at the moment. You can still view their products, though they make no mention of any lab testing. Not even on their FAQ page.
Number of Hits are not the same as a 510 prefilled cartridge.
VVS vape pens are comparable to other disposable pre-filled vapes I have tried and didn’t long as long as a pre-filled 510 cartridge. I personally recommend 510 pre-filled cartridges over disposable vape pens, the reason is that they vape better and last longer. My friend actually prefers buying this VVS vape pen over cartridges, the reason for it is because she is always losing her vape pen batteries. Let’s not forget either that throwing away a battery every time is not good for the environment either.
Geoff – This reiterates the point that the VVS disposable vape pen just doesn’t last that long. You’ll get way better mileage from almost any disposable cartridge.
Final Thoughts On My VVS Vape Pen Review
In conclusion, I will not purchase this disposable vape pen again for my on the go vaping needs. I purchased it for this VVS vape pen review and that was it. Other companies are using the same type of vape pen for their cannabis oil such as Alpine Vapor and THClear. I recommend going with a battery and a 510 pre-filled cartridge over a disposable pre-filled wax pen. See my comparison of Heavy Hitters vs. Brass Knuckles for a side by side of two more popular 510 pre-filled cartridges. To learn more about VVS vape pens, see here.
Geoff – Unless it’s one of the very few options you have in a dispensary, spend your money on something else. Value for the price on the VVS Presidential OG is horrible at $40.00. Consider getting a cartridge, wax, or just plain nugs and you’ll be glad you did.

For this review, we will compare two Puffco models that people have recently been interested in. The Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus!
Puffco’s third vaporizer, the slim, polished Puffco Pro 2 is their smallest vape pen yet. Featuring a stainless-steel body and easy to access single coil chamber. It’s a good looking, solid little pen.
Puffco’s motto is “The New Standard”. The Puffco Plus is smooth and easy to use with the Puffco Dart, and we think original from top to bottom. In comparison to the Pro 2, the Plus is better overall (except for the tiny size difference). Is this $99 vape pen “the New Standard” in vaping?

What Does Each Include?
Design & Quality: Puffco Plus Wins
Puffco Pro 2
The PuffCo Pro 2 comes in a small plastic case that holds the battery, atomizer and mouthpiece, a wide (flat) loading tool, and a thread-on USB charger. The stainless-steel construction gives it a solid feel, and there’s a shock absorbing silicone cap on the bottom. This is a nice touch, for durability’s sake. A silicone splash guard has also been placed inside the mouthpiece.
The PuffCo Pro 2 is one of the smallest pens around at 12.5mm wide. However, the 430mAh battery means small capacity, and doesn’t last a long time. The Puffco Pro 2 battery threads together with the atomizer, and the mouthpiece easily twists off. To power the Pro 2, a squishy cloud shaped button is used to activate the vaporizer and cycle through each of the three heat settings. Double clicking will activate the newly added twelve second ‘sesh mode’, originally limited to the Puffco Plus.
The PuffCo Pro 2 employs a single white ceramic rod with an “Iron/chromium/aluminum alloy” wire wrapped around it four times. PuffCo support confirmed they specify Kanthal heating wire, and join their heating wire to non-resistance leads with crimps. However, they couldn’t satisfactorily answer why our heating wire had a large glob of unknown material inside the ceramic cup.
White ceramic is quite non-porous, it doesn’t have the capacity to absorb or wick oil. For that reason, the white rod serves mostly to hold the wire in place. A small amount of oil adheres when initially loaded, but once hot tends to run away from the hot wire. The thin wire wrapped only four times doesn’t provide much surface area for heat transfer. The air inlets have been moved for better airflow across the heater, which is a positive improvement.
Puffco Plus
The Puffco Plus looks like a vape pen designed by Apple, with a beautiful gunmetal design. The mouthpiece blends perfectly into the battery with just 4 small slits for airflow. Inside the mouthpiece you’ll see the new ceramic Puffco ‘Dart’ which acts as a dab tool, and a carb cap! This definitely comes in handy later.
For vapers who wish to stick with their own high-powered mod, the Puffco Plus may not be for you. Unlike the Puffco Pro 2 that uses a standard 510 connection, the Puffco Plus looks like an eGo connection. This prevents you from using other batteries. The 530mAh battery operating sub-ohm drains quickly, so if you like to use Sesh Mode on high, you’ll need to charge it within 30 minutes.
The Puffco Plus atomizer is a sub-ohm ceramic cup with 4 air holes in the middle. The heating element is a ceramic plate. Unlike cheap quality ceramic plate vaporizers, this ceramic cup fits snugly inside. A good line up on the ceramic plate is important for this type of atomizer, to avoid major leakage.
The Puffco Plus battery features a very subtle cloud light on the bottom of the battery. Just like the Pro 2, the silicone cloud power button is a nice change from the typical hard plastic button found on most vape pens. The battery has 3 standard heat settings. There is also the additional “Sesh Mode” option, which activates the battery and heats for 12 seconds on your select temperature.
The sub-ohm atomizer produces a lot of heat (like most coil-less atomizers). The outside of the chamber gets very hot with back to back Sesh Modes on High.

Ease of Use: Puffco Plus’ Dart Takes The Cake
BOTH vape pens are extremely easy to assemble and use, as explained on enclosed instruction card;
Click the silicone cloud five times to turn the battery on or off. Press four times to get to the next heat level. Green for low (580 °), Blue for medium (650 °), and White for high power (720 °). Just double click to activate “Sesh” mode at any power setting. Sesh mode sends power for twelve seconds straight.
Having to remember to bring the charger with you is an added annoyance. A micro USB port could’ve made for a much easier set up. The threaded charger requires you to unthread the atomizer for each charge, which can also be a hassle.
The airflow on the PuffCo Pro 2 disappoints compared to other pens. I was surprised to find it difficult to inhale through the Pro 2’s atomizer. Even before the first load, the Pro 2 had a very restricted airflow.
The Puffco Plus is ridiculously easy to use. So far this vape pen wins the overall award for ease. To load your Puffco Plus twist the mouthpiece off quickly with a half turn. The Puffco ‘Dart’ is built inside the Plus mouthpiece. Acting as a dab tool, the ceramic tip picks up your material and perfectly places it on the heating element when screwed on. After you fill the Plus vape pen, just replace the mouthpiece and lock with a half-twist. This feature is a Puffco Plus winner, and really adds to ease of use.
Sesh Mode
When looking at Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus, you need to consider that even the same function works differently with different atomizers and batteries. PuffCo decided to incude “Sesh mode” in the Pro 2. Pulse the button twice for 12 seconds of continuous heating. If you use this mode on Blue or White, buckle up – a lot of hot vapor is coming your way. I only enjoyed it on Low Green, and honestly just prefer taking another hit normally.
Sesh Mode shines more on the Puffco Plus. Load the pen easily using the Dart, pulse the button twice and puff away. Puffco Plus’s coil-less atomizer needs a few seconds to warm up to begin with, so 12 seconds works well. Unlike the Puffco Pro 2, which would burn wax after 6+ seconds of sesh mode as the coil got too hot.
Strength: Puffco Pro 2’s Coiled Atomizers Deliver Harder Hits Than The Plus
The Puffco Plus will give out strong hits, but this vape pen was really built for flavor. Sesh Mode on white (high) on the Plus is still not as strong as on the Pro 2!
The Puffco Pro 2 on the other hand is the opposite, with strong hits being one of its biggest features. Despite the restricted airflow, the Pro 2 effortlessly delivers clouds. Even the lowest setting churns out visible vapor hits, and White is hot enough to choke me out (maybe too hot for this coil). The Pro 2 packs a lot of power in a small package. However, the single wick coil doesn’t have the same quality of vapor or vapor production at any heat level, compared to a coil-less atomizer like the Plus.
Efficiency: The Coilless Atomizer On The Plus and The Dart Give The Plus a Win
The PuffCo Pro 2’s high powered heating wire ensures efficient use of your wax, but only if loaded sparingly. Too much and you’ll splatter un-vaped oil on the chamber walls and inside the splatter guard. The guard is effective at preventing splatter from reaching your mouth, but the shape makes it difficult to recover and use. I ended up taking it out and leaving it that way. Without a real wick to feed oils into the heater, a little oil pooling is unavoidable.
The Puffco Plus is one of the most efficient vape pens we’ve reviewed, so far. Unlike other ceramic plate atomizers, the Puffco Plus’ atomizer was snuggly fit with almost surgical precision. This means that almost no wax is lost or un-vaped. You’ll still get some wax on the walls, but this can be easily recovered since there aren’t any coils or rods. The Puffco Dart also adds a lot to efficiency. This Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus comparison shows us that you need to look at all the details in order to really understand how each vape pen works.
Versatility / Atomizer Options: Kind of Weak On Both
The Puffco Pro 2 only supports one style of heating element. The single white ceramic rod with four wraps of thin gauge unknown alloy wire, fit to the Pro 2’s mouthpiece. The PuffCo Plus also has a single type of atomizer, a ceramic plate coil-less atomizer.
Single Coil Atomizer Included With Puffco Pro 2
PuffCo Pro “1” owners were already upset at the need to purchase a completely new vaporizer with a very similar form to experience the new heating chamber. PuffCo explained that the Plus’ battery is more powerful than the Pro, so it was required. As vapers love to have flexibility in their products, PuffCo’s decision to require complete units to try different heating elements seems out of touch. When most vape pens have at least a coiled and coil-less option available for a vape pen, the Pro 2 feels very 2015.
If you want something easy, you’re better off with the Plus.
Portability of Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus: Pro 2 Smaller, but Dart On Plus Helps Portability
The PuffCo Pro 2 is one of the smallest wax pens, and is very portable on its own. If you’ll need to charge it however, you’ll have to bring along its special USB charger. Unfortunately, the Pro 2 carrying case can’t accommodate the assembled vape pen. It requires unthreading the atomizer off the battery each time you put the pen in the case. You may also need the case to carry your dab tool, etc. Luckily, the Pro 2’s stainless body holds up well in your pocket (even against keys), so if it’s fully charged and filled, you’re good to go.
The Puffco Plus is not as small as the Puffco Pro 2, but redefines the meaning of portability with its new Puffco Dart. The Puffco Pro 2 may be smaller, but you need either extremely stable wax (easy to move) or must carry a dab tool. With the Puffco Plus, you just take the Plus itself and your wax! The Dart acts as the dab tool and is built right into the mouthpiece.
The newly designed cap for atomizers not in use are great for pre-loading an extra atomizer for later, instead of bringing a small container. Neither Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus battery is brilliant, but the Plus is a slight improvement.
Puffco Plus: size relation to hand
Discretion: Pretty Close
The small size of the PuffCo Pro 2 allows you to throw it in a pocket and bust it out anywhere you see fit. It is pretty shiny, so it would be nice to see it available in a darker color, for those really going for discretion. Other than that, there isn’t much that could be improved upon here.
The Puffco Plus is about as discreet as they come, with sleek gunmetal exterior and small size. Take a hit on low power and few will notice. The light on the bottom of the battery is faint (unlike the Kandypens Elite) and can be easily covered with a finger. The Dart adds to discretion by eliminating any need to fiddle with extra tools.
Taste of Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus: Coilless For Sure Playa
With PuffCo Pro 2’s emphasis on ease and cloud production, there’s no surprise that flavor isn’t a big factor. The first hit on a load with a freshly cleaned chamber tastes great, but the flavor degrades quickly after (even with small loads). When kept on Green (low) the taste stays decent for some time, and the first hit or two are nice and fresh. After those first hits I never get the same level of flavor until I do a full deep clean. Even after trying PuffCo’s high temp burn off suggestion and going back to a fresh load on Green, the taste could not be restored. If you are looking for a vaporizer to deliver fantastic flavor from terpene rich oils, keep looking.
On the other end of the spectrum is the Puffco Plus, which tastes incredible. The low setting on the Plus provides perfect low temp hits which allow all those nice terpenes to shine. Even the White (high) Setting still leaves you with a great taste in your mouth. Those looking to savor their wax are in for a treat. You won’t get the burning wax taste on this vape pen. The downside for some is no super hard rips.
Value: Shell Out a bit More For The Plus
Previously priced at $89.99, the PuffCo Pro 2 is now down to $75.95 on the website (saving you $14). The Pro 2 packaging and look certainly give an impression of quality, as does its solid build quality and precision of parts. It comes with a charger, case, and dab tool. However, the four-wrap Kanthal wire around a single ceramic rod heating element and chamber seems quite dated in comparison to many pens today. Others have managed to employ dual coil heating elements, porous black ceramic wicks, quartz walls & rods. Not to mention wireless, donut style, and the next gen of sealed chambers like the PuffCo Plus.
The flavor and performance of the Pro 2 reflect the technology of the heat source. Though the price has dropped, the high cost for a vape pen with restricted airflow, one atomizer and low flavor potential doesn’t seem like the first choice.
The Puffco Plus was originally $99.99 when released, but then they raised their price another $20 to $119.99. However, It was just recently lowered back to $99.99.
The kit includes the Puffco Plus, a charger, a pack of 4 cotton swabs, and a Puffco Grip sleeve. The Puffco Grip is a great little silicone sleeve that was added later. It makes it easier to hold your Puffco Plus, and also stops it from rolling around. You don’t get a case, but the built in Dart means you rarely need one. It also includes an extra chamber atomizer with a cap. Count the extra chamber for its retail $25 and you’re paying around $75 for the Puffco Plus.
It also comes with a 1 Year Warranty that covers the sub-ohm battery and charger. The Plus is an incredible, self-contained vape pen.
Replacement Costs: You Get What You Pay For
Replacement costs aren’t great for either Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus. The Puffco Pro 2 replacements for its white ceramic single coil are $19.99. This is a high price for a low-tech heater of white ceramic single coil with four wraps of an aluminum-alloyed metal. So, take good care of your coil as these will get expensive to replace over time.
Puffco Plus replacements come in at $24.95 apiece. You can get 5 of them for $100. It’s on par with other atomizers, but also includes a cap when you purchase separately. Just don’t lose your battery, or you’re paying $50 for a Puffco battery replacement.
Final Thoughts on Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus
The Puffco Pro 2 might be just what you’re looking for if strength is your priority. The Pro 2 is the smallest choice between Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus. It’s solid and has a nice polished exterior. However, if taste matters more, this is probably not the vape pen for you! The single coil atomizer gets extremely hot and though gives strong hits, can burn wax.
We think the Puffco Plus is one of the best vape pens out right now. The Plus includes an extra chamber and is ridiculously easy to use with the built in Puffco Dart and Sesh Mode (which is now on both, but works better with the Plus’ coil-less atomizer). The Plus gives you flavorful hits every time. We also love the darker and more discreet look of its gunmetal exterior. It’s got a slightly better battery than the Pro 2, but still be wary of the battery life when you go out.
The Pro 2 comes with a case and dab tool. However, the Plus includes the Puffco Dart and an extra ceramic atomizer, which are more valuable in our opinion. For those looking for ease of use and constant smooth, tasty hits, the Plus is our Puffco Pro 2 vs Plus comparison choice for sure! The Puffco Plus wins!

Dosist Pen Review reveals a very effective CBD Cartridge
The Dosist pen review was a great experience. At the time of review, it was called the hmbldt pen, but was just recently relabeled. This vape pen is a very efficient medical cannabis oil vaporizer. I’ve tried many vape pens and cartridges before this review, there was no other as nice and effective. The Dosist calm vape pen is true to its name and provided me with a calm feeling. I never tried CBD before I tried this Dosist pen. I was astonished at its pain relieving and anxiety relief effects it provided. There is a very small minor head change from the 4% THC in the vape pen.
Design Quality was professional inside and out.
This product is of the highest quality when it comes to vaping cannabis oil. The Dosist vape pen is recyclable, you can turn them in for a $5.00 discount. It’s the only recyclable vape pen on the market that provides precise dosages of CBD. The Dosist dose pen will vibrate after one dosage, there’s also a light that flashes to indicate to stop. It looks like it came straight out of a pharmacy. Times magazine voted the Dosist pen one of the best inventions for 2016.
Strength of Dose and Recommendation Amounts are Appropriate.
The number of doses recommended are accurately suggested. The directions are simple, new cannabis smokers should start off with one puff an hour. Occasional cannabis smokers are recommended two doses an hour. Three puffs an hour should only be taken for those who frequently use cannabis. I took three puffs before I went to sleep at night and I am instantly relaxed. There’s a light head change with this CBD vape pen, but it’s not an intense head high. I actually felt calm and relaxed using this recyclable CBD cartridge.
This pen I liked so much I actually bought three more right after trying this CBD cartridge. I switched from vaping concentrated THC oil cartridges to vaping a prefilled CBD vape pen. Now I begin my day with a puff of CBD so I can maintain my energy and stay productive. I always found myself sapped of energy after vaping wax cartridges with too much THC.
The Taste on the Dosist Pen is a great blend of terpenes and cannabis extracted oil
The taste of CBD is unique and different than THC. The taste is very pleasant and light. The vape is a very cool mist and not harsh on the throat at all. It has a familiar taste of cannabis. It’s truly a medical device that provides medicine that is enjoyable to vape.
Dosist offers Affordable Recycleable Vape Pens
The cost of the Dosist 50 dose pen is $40.00 at my local dispensary, a larger 200 dose size is available at $100.00. These two options make it affordable for those who don’t need to use much of this CBD product. Those who need it more frequently can save money on a 200 dose pen for $100.00. Incorporating this CBD vape pen into your day can help reduce the use of THC vape pens and cartridges.
Most of the Dosist Pens are Efficient with its Accuracy of Doses
After going through multiple Dosist vape pens I experienced accuracy with most of them. They are reliable and affordable but not perfect. I had consistency with the smaller dose pens but not with the larger 200 dose pen. I didn’t get the same vape clouds from the bigger pen, I experienced bigger clouds from the smaller pen. Either of these vape pens will not give you big vape clouds.
As you can see in the video below each hit doesn’t emit too much vapor. Three hits are the perfect amount to take before bed. The recommended doses are appropriate. It’s recommended three doses per hour for a heavy cannabis user, as someone in this category it proved to be suitable. I allowed a friend to try it who isn’t a cannabis smoker, she only needed one puff per hour to feel relief from pain in her knee. One puff is the recommendation for those inexperienced with cannabis.
Ingredients are triple checked during three different stages.
These ape pens are made with cannabis grown in Humboldt County, California. Labeled on the back of the packaging are THC, CBD, and terpenes. No fillers or additives is also stated. Dosist conducts multiple lab tests during three different stages. CO2 or Ethanol is used for extraction. Lab tests are conducted looking for pesticides, microbio, or residual solvents. The second lab test is done after the fractional distillation, additives and contaminations are searched for in these test. The final lab test is done after terpenes have been added with the extracted cannabinoids.
As you can see above there’s a sample code provided with each purchase, you can see the lab results using this code at sclabs.com.
The number of hits available come in 50 and 200 doses
The Dosist Pen lets you know the exact amount of doses you’re going to buy. Their 50 dose vape pen cost $40.00 and their 200 dose option is priced at $100.00. I went through 4 CBD vape pens total in a couple of weeks. The doses are accurate. I never had any issues getting my full count. I only tried the 50 dosage pens so I can’t comment yet on the 200 doses.
Overall conclusion: One of the Best CBD Vape Pens
CBD is truely a medicine that provides a natural calming and pain relief. As someone with anxiety, I benefited significantly having this Dosist CBD vape pen. The effects are felt right away. I had trouble keeping track of how many doses I used so having a counter on the vape pen would be helpful. I will now be using CBD in my daily life after trying it out. Its definitely worth trying out once to see what benefits it may have for you personally. You can find more information on the Dosist pen here.
