This piece is the glass joystick on the Puffco joystick cap: the part you tilt to direct air over your concentrate.

Empire Glassworks Puffco New Peak & Proxy Joystick – Hand-Made Glass in Ten Colors

The smallest part of a Puffco is the one you touch most. Every dab, your fingers find the joystick on top of the cap and tilt it to aim the air. The stock one does the job. Empire's does the same job in hand-made glass, in a color you picked.

Empire makes this joystick for two devices: the Puffco New Peak and the Puffco Proxy. It is not the Peak Pro version. Empire sells a separate joystick cap for the Peak Pro 3D XL chamber, and we carry that one too.

The ten colors.

• Keep it simple: Clear, and Vintage, a classic green.
• Bright accents: Blue Lagoon, Orange, Yellow, Transparent Red and Pink Slyme.
• Dark: Black Nebula, smoky black glass flecked with blue.
• Light-reactive: Glow In The Dark glows after it charges in light, and UV Pink turns vivid under a blacklight.

Each one is made by hand, so the shape and color depth vary slightly from the photos.

💬 Common Questions & Answers

Will this fit my Puffco Peak Pro?

No. Empire makes this joystick for the Puffco New Peak and the Puffco Proxy. The Peak Pro with its 3D XL chamber uses a different cap, and Empire sells a separate glass joystick for it, which we also carry as the Empire Glassworks Puffco Joystick Glass Cap. Check your model name on the box or in the Puffco app before ordering.

What does the joystick do?

The joystick is the small piece on top of the Puffco joystick cap that you tilt during a dab. Tilting it changes where the air enters the chamber, so you can aim it at concentrate stuck to the wall and vaporize it without starting a new heat cycle. Empire's version does the same job as the stock one, in hand-made glass.

How does the Glow In The Dark color work?

Glow In The Dark glass charges under light and then glows on its own in the dark. Leave it under a bright lamp or in daylight for a few minutes, then turn the lights off. The glow fades over time and recharges the next time it sits in light. It is a visual effect only and does not change how the joystick works.

What is UV Pink?

UV Pink is UV-reactive glass. In normal room light it reads as a softer pink. Under a blacklight it turns vivid, bright pink. It does not glow on its own in the dark like the Glow In The Dark option; it needs a UV light source to show the effect. Pick it if you have a blacklight setup.

Is it hard to install?

No. Let the device cool, remove the stock joystick from the Puffco joystick cap, and seat the Empire glass joystick in its place. No tools are needed. Keep the stock joystick somewhere safe as a spare. Because it is glass, handle it over a soft surface while swapping so a slip does not end in a break.

How do I clean it?

Let it cool completely, then soak it in isopropyl alcohol until any residue loosens. Rinse it under warm water and let it dry fully before you put it back on the cap. Never put hot glass into cold liquid, because the temperature shock cracks it. A quick wipe with a cotton swab between soaks keeps it clear.

Summary: New Peak and Proxy only, tilts to steer air, glow charges in light, UV Pink needs a blacklight, tool-free swap, and cleans cold.

🛒 Complete Your Puffco Setup

Pick up a spare Puffco Peak Atomizer, add a Proxy Droplet to a Proxy build, or browse every carb cap and joystick we carry.

Summary: Pair the Empire joystick with spare Puffco parts and glass.
