What are pre-filled THC oil cartridges?

Pre-filled THC oil cartridges are mini vape tanks filled with weed oil, sometimes referred to as hash oil. The tank contains a small coil which is powered by either a standard weed pen battery, a 510 thread vape, or a proprietary pod style device. Most THC cartridges contain a gram (1 mL) or half gram (0.5 mL) of THC oil, usually extracted from cannabis plants or hash. They are generally good for around 200-400 puffs.

Sometimes potent THC distillate cartridges are mistakenly referred to as wax carts or dab carts. Although some companies do make re-fillable 510 tanks for wax and dabs, they are not as convenient. The most popular ways to vape dabs or wax is using an e-nail or a dab pen.

How to use a pre-filled THC oil cartridge

Here are some helpful tips for using your pre-filled THC oil cart for the first time.  thc oil cartridge

  • There is almost no learning curve. Attach your cartridge to the battery and make sure it’s charged. Most devices require you to press the fire button five times.
  • Some devices are draw-activated while others may require you to press a button to vape.
  • If your device allows you to adjust the voltage, start at the lowest possible setting first.
  • Begin with small 3-5 second puffs so you can gauge the potency of the oil, and the THC effects. You can always take another puff, so don’t overdo it.
  • Experiment with raising the voltage for a stronger hit, but if it starts to taste dry or burnt, take it down a notch before you damage the coil.
  • Most cartridges can be refilled with your own THC oil, CBD vape oil or e-liquid before you need to get rid of them. If it’s a 510 style cartridge, just unscrew the mouthpiece and fill the tank up. You may need to use a syringe for accuracy.
  • When the flavor starts tasting burnt, that means it’s time for a new cartridge. Keep in mind, there are many great re-fillable oil carts available right now as well.

Advantages of pre-filled THC oil carts

The biggest advantage of using pre-filled THC oil cartridges over smoking and dabbing is the convenience factor. There is nothing to fill, just attach it to your battery and vape. Oil pens produce a very faint odor, which dissipates rather quickly, so they are perfect for stealthy sessions. Flavor is another major reason why people are switching to pre-filled oil carts. They allow you to experience your favorite cannabis strains in a whole new way. The taste is much purer than smoking a bowl, or using a dry herb vaporizer! Pre-filled THC oil carts are an excellent way to vape THC.

  • Convenient
  • Discreet
  • Flavorful
  • Effective
  • Modern technology
  • Much safer than smoking

Disadvantages of pre-filled THC oil carts

There are still some cons to using pre-filled THC cartridges. The first one is that although they all contain 0.5-1.0 mL of oil, the potency can vary drastically. That means one puff on any given cartridge can potentially have a different result. Also, the physical effects from oil carts tend to be more subtle than smoking or dabbing. Another disadvantage is the fact that strain selection is usually limited. Finally, pre-filled cartridges can be less cost effective than the ones you fill yourself.

  • Varying levels of potency
  • Effects can be more subtle
  • Limited strain selection
  • Not cheap

What to look for in a THC oil cartridge

Here are some things you want to keep in mind when shopping for weed oil cartridges.

  • Extraction method – The best extraction method for THC oil is currently CO2 extraction. It is also the most popular and safest method for making cannabis oil, distillate and live resin carts. The reason why it is so prevalent these days is because this THC oil doesn’t contain residual solvents like alcohol or butane.
  • Thinning agents – Most THC oil cartridges contain some kind of thinning agent. This is required for the oil to maintain a consistency that is optimal for vaping. The most common thinning agents are vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol (VG and PG), which are commonly found in regular e-liquid. Some cartridges contain other fillers like PEG and more recently TEC Temper, which is a new formula derived from natural terpenes.
  • Potency – If you’re looking to get blasted, you can’t be wasting your time with weak THC oil carts with mostly filler. For the strongest effects, you’ll need something extremely potent, preferably distillate or live resin. They contain the least amount of filler and the highest levels of THC and natural terpenes.
  • Terpene-specific – Terpenes are organic compounds found in all plants that give them their individual flavor and personality. They also determine whether a cannabis strain is a hybrid, indica or sativa. Terpenes interact synergistically with other cannabinoids to create different effects. They enhance the flavor and serve as a natural filler to keep the viscosity down.
  • Cannabinoid-specific – Many pre-filled cartridges contain cannabinoid-specific oils. The most common cannabinoid, other than THC, is called cannabidiol, also known as CBD. A lot of research shows that THC can actually enhance the benefits and effects of CBD oil. These cannabinoid-specific oils are generally found in various ratios like 50/50 or 80/20 THC:CBD for example. Some may incorporate other cannabinoids such as CBN or THCv which provide additional benefits beyond THC and CBD vape oil.
  • Quality – If you live where cannabis is legal, you probably have access to high quality pharmaceutical grade THC oil. The products listed above have been carefully selected based on reviews and research. If you don’t select any of the brands on this page, be sure to do your own research before making your purchase. Avoid cheap oil carts high in filler with and potential residual solvents.
  • Compatibility – There are two main styles of pre-filled THC cartridges. The most common is the standard 510 e-cig tank, which connects to your standard e-liquid and CBD vape pens. The other style of cartridges are called pods, which require a specific device like the PAX Era or GPen Gio for example. Make sure that you are getting the appropriate cartridge for your particular device and it could never hurt to have a few backups on hand. thc oil cartridge

Description

What is a THC oil vape pen?

Part of a THC oil pen inforgraphic

A weed pen or THC oil vape pen is a relatively simple, two-part electronic device used to vaporize THC oil or distillate. Evolution of early vape pens, weed vape pens are most often shaped like writing pens—hence the name. Sometimes they are referred to as a cartridge battery. That’s because every weed pen houses a small battery that heats your oil in an atomizer cartridge containing a wick and a heating coil. This heating process turns concentrates into THC-filled vapor.

Voila! With the press of a button and a drag on the mouthpiece, high times are on demand. The odor is faint and dissipates quickly, so THC pens are the most convenient way to fly high while cruising under the radar. Keep reading to find out how to use a pen with your own THC oils and cartridges.

Tips for getting started

The first thing you’ll need is a THC pen and some THC oil or distillate. Cannabis oil is generally sold in prefilled cartridges, but can be made or purchased separately for refilling your own carts—which is more cost-effective but requires a bit more work. Ideally, you want THC oil that comes preloaded into a syringe.

There are two ways to use a marijuana vape pen. If you have a prefilled cartridge, you simply screw it onto the pen and press the button. If you buy a kit that includes an empty cart, you’ll want to fill it with your oil or distillate—more on that later. Here are a few key pointers for getting started with your THC oil pen:

  • Oil vape pens are designed for cannabis oil and distillate cartridges.
  • To avoid having your session interrupted, charge before use.
  • The higher the milliamp rating (more mAh), the more battery life the vape pen has.
  • If the device has adjustable power, turn it down to its lowest setting and adjust up from there.
  • Replace the cartridge as soon as the flavor and performance drop off to avoid wasting your oil. (Scroll down to learn how to fill and extract THC oil.)

How to clean a THC oil vape pen

Since THC vape pens are two-part designs, with the cartridge being disposable, there’s not much cleaning necessary. The most important thing to keep clean is the connection. Typically, cannabis pens have a 510-connection— that’s the threading that connects to the cartridge that contains the oil. That connection should remain relatively clean to keep the current flowing. THC oil is thick, but a little seepage can find its way in the connection. Left uncleaned, the device may stop working.

Cleaning the vape pen’s 510 connection is simple: just use a Q-tip and high-strength isopropyl, and wipe until clean. Cleaning the thread will not make a noticeable difference in the vape experience, but it will help prolong the lifespan of the device. While you are at it, make sure you clean the mouthpiece and 510 threads of your oil cartridge too.

How to fill a weed pen

To fill your THC oil pen, all you’ll need is a syringe containing cannabis oil and an empty THC oil cart. Go slow. Let each layer settle before adding more oil, you don’t want to risk losing any of it! Here are some helpful tips to keep in mind.

  • Slowly inject the oil while making a circular motion with the syringe.
  • Never inject oil down the central chimney of the cartridge.
  • Fill the cartridge enough to cover the wicking holes located on the outside of the coil housing.
  • Let the cartridge sit at least 30 minutes after filling. The high viscosity of the oil needs a fair amount of time to soak into the wick.
How to remove THC oil from cartridge

To extract the oil from your cannabis pen, you will need an empty oil cart and a filling syringe with a blunt tip that fits inside your oil cartridge. You may need to slightly warm up the cartridge, to allow the oil to flow better when extracting it.

  • Remove the cartridge from the battery to prevent oil from leaking into the battery section.
  • Detach the mouthpiece—some are threaded and some will just pop off.
  • For very thick oils and distillates, you may want to gently warm the cartridge up to make the oil easier to transfer, but do not overheat it!
  • Make sure you have a syringe with a tip that you can fit inside the cartridge. Different style carts may require different sized tips.
