Hot Knife / Electric Dab Tool
An electric dab tool, also known as a hot knife, e-dab tool, heated dab tool, electric dabber tool, or dab tool, is a battery-powered device that uses a heating element or tip that may be made of ceramic or metal. This tip is then used to scoop and apply concentrates to a dab nail or quartz banger.
Electric dab tools are getting more and more popular with people who use extracts and concentrates because they are better than traditional dab tools in many ways. The benefits are endless and here are a few.
Precision and Accuracy: Electric dab tools let you set the exact temperature of the tip, so you don't burn or waste your concentrates.
Convenience and Handiness: Electric dab tools are easy to use and don't need a butane torch or other heat source. This makes them great for taking with you and using discreetly.
Cleanliness and Hassle-Free Sessions: Electric dab tools help keep things clean and tidy by preventing concentrates from sticking to the tip or dripping where you do not want them to.
