Some vaporizers are dual-use and accept both flower and concentrates with the right inserts or attachments, while others are dedicated to one or the other. Dual-use options include the Storz & Bickel Volcano Hybrid (with concentrate pads), the Mighty+ and Crafty+ (with dosing capsules and concentrate inserts), the DaVinci IQ series, and several portable convection vapes. Dedicated concentrate devices include the Puffco Peak, Peak Pro, Proxy, and most e-rigs, which are optimized for waxes and oils only. Dedicated flower devices include older PAX models and most basic dry herb portables. Mixing concentrates in a flower-only device clogs screens and damages the heating element. Mixing flower in a concentrate-only device produces poor vapor and may shorten heater life. For users who want both options in one device, the Mighty+ and Volcano Hybrid are top picks. For users who specialize in one or the other, dedicated devices outperform dual-use options in their respective category. Our 838 N Broadway store in Los Angeles stocks both categories, and our staff has been advising on flower vs concentrate vaporizers since portables entered the market.
