I have been doing a lot of this Rosin thing lately and, to be honest, I just cant find a device that delivers exactly what I want.
It seems to boil down to 2 types of devices. 1 is the torch and nail and the other is the battery and coil. There may be more but this is all I have tried so far.
As for a torch and nail...
When you heat those items up to red hot and touch the dab to it, I believe you loose a ton of the taste (the best part about rosin). And, using a torch like that reminds me of my crack days a little too much. And, it's a PITA to do. And, they are a little messy at times. And, using a torch as stoned as we are all the time just doesn't sound like a good idea LOL
On the good side, you get a GIANT hot. I like that a lot.
With the coil and battery devices, it's a nice instant hit. And the taste is awesome for the first few hits. However, after a while the coils begin to gunk up with a dark black by-product (like resin from smoking a pipe too long without cleaning).
And, the hits from the coil devices are never big enough for me. But, it is nice, neat and clean.
For the torch and nail devices, I like the water nectar straw the best. Then, maybe a glass banger.
As for the coil devices, I am currently using a Yocan Ultron and I like it. It fits well into my bong and it's instant when I want it.
I also have heard people talk about an e-nail (or, is it d-nail?). Not sure what they are talking about but it looks like the old fashioned electric charcoal starters that wrap around some kind of bowl. They say it works but it sounds like a long heat-up time.
I would love to hear what you are using and whether or not you like it.
