While glass pipes are still a staple for smokers, we’ve seen a rise in e-rig sales for smokers that want ease, convenience, and overall control of their smoking experience. At High End Collections Smoke Shop in Kansas City, we offer the metro’s largest selection of premium heady glass pipes from the finest in 420 brands and many world-renowned glass artists. In this week’s post, we look at whether e-cigs (or tabletop vaporizers) will be responsible for declining traditional glass smoking pipes in the future.

E-rigs, also known as electronic dab rigs or e-nails, have been gaining popularity as a more convenient and technologically advanced method of consuming concentrates like wax, shatter, and other forms of extracts. As smoking methods continue to evolve, e-rigs may very well represent the future of smoking for many people. Here are a few reasons why:
- Convenience: E-rigs are easy to use, portable, and typically require minimal setup. Users can simply turn on the device, choose the desired temperature, and start enjoying their concentrates within seconds.
- Temperature control: One of the main advantages of e-rigs is their precise temperature control. Users can easily set and maintain the optimal temperature for their concentrates, which allows for a more consistent and enjoyable experience. Traditional dabbing methods often require guesswork and can result in combustion, which produces harmful byproducts.
- Health and safety: E-rigs minimize the risk of combustion, which is associated with the release of harmful chemicals and carcinogens. By providing a more controlled heating process, e-rigs can help reduce the potential risks associated with smoking.
- Efficiency: E-rigs can heat up quickly and maintain a consistent temperature throughout the session, leading to more efficient consumption of concentrates. This means less waste and a potentially better overall experience.
- Customization: Many e-rigs come with adjustable settings and features that allow users to tailor their smoking experience according to their preferences. Some devices even offer Bluetooth connectivity, enabling users to control the device through a smartphone app.
However, it is essential to note that e-rigs, like any smoking method, still have some risks. While they may reduce the risk of combustion, inhaling any vapor or smoke can still harm the lungs. Additionally, e-rigs can be expensive, which may be a barrier for some users.
As technology advances and more research is conducted on the long-term effects of e-rigs and vaporizers, we may see e-rigs become even more popular and potentially safer. At High End Collections Smoke Shop, we carry the top-rated e-rigs as well as plenty of traditional heady glass pipes and smoking supplies.
