11 Dec What is a CBD Vape Cartridge?
What is a CBD Vape cartridge? A vape cart is great way to get your dose of CBD. They are small, portable, mask the smell of hemp, and are easy to use. Last time you were out in public, you might have seen someone take a hit from a CBD vape cart and not even realize it. They can be very incognito!
What is a CBD Vape Cartridge?
A CBD vape cartridge is a disposable pre-filled cartridge containing a vape-able CBD oil. They hook up to a battery and are great for people who want their CBD “on the go”. It is not just because CBD carts are so “incognito”, it is because vaping CBD is one of the quickest ways to feel the effects of CBD.
CBD Vape Cartridges are extremely easy things to understand. They are in fact simple devices. A CBD Vape Cartridge consists of only a few simple things:
- A heating element (could be made from cotton, metal, or ceramic).
- Filled with vape-able CBD.
- Attaches to a 510 threaded battery.
“The Vape Crisis”
All these CBD vape cartridges come in a variety of brands and flavors. So, you have options on what to get. However, there was a bit of an issue a while back nicknamed “The Vape Crisis”. There were quite a few people who suffered from bad lung damage, and the one thing that they all had in common was vaping. Although what caused “the vape crisis” is unclear and the whole “crisis” seems to be over you should make sure that you’re purchasing a clean cart from a reputable company. So, you will have to be careful when trying to purchase a CBD cart.
Look for a Reputable CBD Company
Before even thinking about analyzing a company’s vape cart, analyze the company first. This will be easy to do with a little research online. There was a point where the CBD industry was so new that CBD companies had little info online. But now there is tons of great info to judge these companies.
Here is What to Look for When Looking for a Good CBD Company
- First thing you may want to do is check the company reviews. If their customers like them then they can’t be all that bad.
- Next, check to see if the company has any lawsuits open against them. Believe it or not, CBD Companies that lie about the contents of their products is a big problem in this industry. Fortunately, if a company has lied about the contents of their product and has been caught, chances are a lawsuit has been filled against them and such lawsuit can be found online.
- Look into the company’s testing practices. Most states require that CBD product be tested before they are sold in that state.
- It is important that you do not just look for a lab printout, but actually look at it and read it.
- Check the date: Was this product tested recently?
- Check THC content: Is this product legal and under the .3% limit for Delta9 THC?
- Check CBD content: Does this product actually contain CBD?
- Check for harmful chemicals: Does this product contain too much lead or anything else that might be harmful?
- It is important that you do not just look for a lab printout, but actually look at it and read it.
How to Find a Good CBD Cartridge
Ok so the CBD company is a reputable company, and you want to look into their vape carts. How do we know if their carts are good? There are two main things you should look into:
- What is the CBD Vape Cartridge made of?
- What is the contents of the CBD Vape Cart?
What is the CBD Vape Cartridge Made Out Of?
A CBD vape Cartridge is a heating element, filled with a vape-able oil, that attaches to a 510 threaded battery. So, one thing that you will have to consider is “What is the heating element made out of?”.
The Heating Element for a Vape Cart Can be Made of Several Things:
- Cotton
- Metal
- Ceramic
Personally, I enjoy ceramic vape carts. They taste great and burn clean. Metal, if made properly can burn clean, but it is hard to find a metal cart that taste good. Cotton tends to need another chemical present to vaporize the oil. Typically, this is propylene glycol. Although there is a certain amount of debate whether this is safe (it probably is) why add a chemical you do not need to add? Simply using metal or ceramic carts is going to be best in this case.
What is the Contents of the CBD Oil?
The contents of the CBD oil inside the cartridge is one of the most important things you can check. Many people believe the “Vape Crisis” was caused by added ingredients to the carts used to save money. I’ve heard of all types of added ingredients in carts, everything from vitamin E to honey. Look for a cart that has as little ingredients as possible. I personally look for carts that don’t even have added flavors to it. The cleanest CBD Vape cartridges are those that advertise that they only contain CBD distillate. That is CBD that has been drawn out of the raw plant material by distillation. Distillate then to lack any flavor, taste, or aroma, or if they do it is quite subtle. That is because distillate is devoid of most other ingredients but CBD.
