An e-rig (electronic rig) is a battery-powered cannabis concentrate vaporizer that replaces the traditional torch-banger workflow with electronic temperature control. The user sets a target temperature (typically 500–700°F), the e-rig heats its built-in atomizer to that exact temperature, drops in the concentrate, and inhales. Most e-rigs include water filtration like a traditional rig. Popular e-rigs: Puffco Peak Pro (the category-defining device), Dr. Dabber Switch, KandyPens Oura, Focus V Carta. Pricing: $200–$400 for top-tier units. Advantages: temperature precision (no guesswork on banger heat), no torch needed (safer indoors), portable, faster session-to-session turnaround. Disadvantages: limited to atomizer-compatible concentrates (super runny saucy live rosin can leak), proprietary atomizers/coils that need replacement every 2–4 months, less "ritual" feel than glass-and-torch dabbing. E-rigs have rapidly grown to maybe 30–40% of the active dabbing market because they make low-temp dabbing accessible to less-technical consumers.
