Vape pens are sweeping the country, but what is actually inside those vape pens? Vapes contain a variety of different substances such as nicotine, flavored oils without nicotine, marijuana, synthetics, and many others. Marijuana concentrates (including Delta 8 and 10) and vape pens are the perfect marriage.
Concentrates come in oil, wax or crystal form, and the current version of vape pens can work for all three. The baseline when dealing with vape pens is that there are NO ABSOLUTES. Electric devices vaporize a liquid form of nicotine. Many forms of nicotine are found in vape shops, convenience stores, gas stations, grocery outlets, and even alcohol outlets, depending on the state. Vape pens that contain nicotine products can look identical to other pens in the drug world, making it impossible to distinguish what is inside.
Over the last few years, vape pens for drug use have become SUPER popular. They can be colorful, small, interactive, and very discrete, with the latter being a large selling point for these various pens.
