DABEQUIPMENT

THE FULL DAB KIT

A complete low-temp dab setup involves eight categories of equipment. The minimum kit — rig, banger, carb cap, dab tool, torch, and q-tips — runs $200–$400 from quality brands. Premium connoisseur setups (named glass artists, ruby pearls, premium e-rig as backup) run $1,000–$3,000+.

We don’t sell equipment directly — we press the concentrates that go on it. But after seven years in the solventless category, we have strong opinions on what to buy and what to skip. Below: the full equipment map, plus links to detailed buyer’s guides for each major category.
