DMT vape pens can be broken down according to two categories:
- The type of vaporizer products (cartridges, disposable vape pens, refillable DMT e-liquid)
- The type of DMT used as the active ingredient (N,N,DMT or 5-MeO-DMT)
A) Types of DMT Vaporizers
Vape pens are well-established at this point. You can find companies in many different markets selling vape pens of all different styles. The main industry for this is cannabis, but you can also find vapes for nicotine, caffeine, melatonin, and other substances.
DMT vapes come in all the same formats as these other vapes.
In general, the most accessible form of DMT vapes to use is DMT vape carts.
The trick is to order a nice vape pen battery that allows you to recharge it and control the battery’s voltage output. If you find the hits are a little too harsh, you can turn down the voltage to vape at a lower temperature.
Cheap vape batteries won’t offer this functionality.
1. DMT Vape Cartridges
- Convenient to use
- Cost efficient
- Easy to swap out for other types of carts
- Rechargeable
The most common form is replaceable vape cartridges. These devices use the standard 510 threading found on most vape batteries on the market. They allow you to use an existing vape battery.
You’ll need a couple of hits to “breakthrough,” but this is more of a positive than a negative. It’s much more controllable than mesh pens or smoking DMT in a dab rig or pipe.
2. Disposable DMT Vape Pens
- Works right out of the box
- Low barrier to entry
- Wasteful
DMT vapor also comes in the form of non-refillable vape pens. These standalone devices come with a battery and internal tank that holds the DMT and e-liquid base. Once the tank is empty or the battery runs out, you simply throw away the device.
The downside of these devices is that they’re wasteful and usually use cheap materials. Cheap heating elements may off-gas heavy metals like lead.
3. Refillable DMT Vape E-Liquid Pens
- Designed to vape E-liquid
- Convenient & easy to use
- Customizable settings
You can also find refillable E-liquid vapes that can be filled with a DMT-infused E-liquid. You can buy these E-liquids or make it yourself by combining DMT freebase with any e-liquid.
4. Mesh Pens or Mod Pens
- Can vape powder, resin, or e-liquid
- Customizable
- Requires some effort to get it to work properly
Mod vape pens are designed to be customized. You need three main components — the battery, the coil, and a stainless steel mesh. This method requires a bit of tinkering to get it to work, but once it’s going, it’s the only method aside from smoking that’s going to deliver breakthrough experiences with just one or two hits of DMT.
These vapes also offer the most accurate dose because you know exactly how much DMT you’re getting based on the amount of powder you’re using.
