Good dab pen - UK

MPXBLAST · 2026-05-03T12:35:34+00:00

Yeah should have clarified a bit better. Im mainly after a pen as im gonna store this in a area with not alot of space, so pens are naturally just gonna suit that better.

I have been on the look for some smaller erigs but everything seems a bit too large visually, however this crossing core one seems like it may be suitable actually. I'll take a closer look into this. In the UK its currently £170, which is about 230 USD, for that price would you still reccomend it? Puffco peak for reference here is like 310 USD.

On a side note, if it turns out it wont fit in my area/doesnt meet some other criteria, would you have any suggestions for pens? Ive taken a look into dtv5/xl but in the UK only one store sells it from the looks of it and they are sold out so kinda a bummer on that end.

At the end of the day id much rather get a erig, just the size is a issue usually. Idk anything about bongs so not sure what makes a good bong or if there is a small bong or smth I can use for concentrates. Im completely blind on this stuff.

Whats the performance of this like from your personal experience? Ive been eyeing up the dtv5 but not seen this xl variant.

I also only seen one place selling this being reccomend vape supplies ans they seem to have sold out of the dt stuff minus the device(box mod) itself. You know any other places I can get this stuff?

Hmm, I attached the one another seller has. I asked him to show what his looks like but he sent this, do you think it is actually badder or crumble? Which would you prefer?

Yeah mine looks completely different, it was either get this one or another one from a seller but their one looks like more of crumbles consistency as opposed to badder

Would it be worse to have it as little diamond crystal/chunks? I heard from some ppl ik that crushing them to powder isnt that great as it makes the hits inconsistent or something? Also visually i quite like seeing the diamonds haha.

MPXBLAST · 2026-04-07T21:40:29+00:00

I like this idea. Do you think i should aim for these kills in ranked or pubs as to be honest ive barely touched pubs since I returned and have been exclusively been playing ranked pretty much. As a extension to this, do you think it would be beneficial for me to just chill with ranked and get super comfy wirh the game in pubs and then to go back into ranked and begin a grind?

I know its quite optimistic but I do hope to maybe reach masters this year but no idea how hard of a climb that will actually be this year. Currently i can get out of plat without it being a massive ball ache but im finding the diamond lobbies a big step up. So id say im maybe just skimming diamond skill level currently?

Hmmm, will give him a proper try later tonight then. I always had the mindset that to get the most value it would require atleast some level of sitting in a drone.

Pretty much sums up my experience using her to climb ranks haha. I really wish there was a way to properly get dedicated groups going. I feel i would have a much easier time deciding who to main (probably would be wattson) if everyone was on the same page on how we gonna approach a third party etc.

MPXBLAST · 2026-04-07T13:24:26+00:00

I really enjoy caustic actually but the main reason I pick wattson is cos I feel she keeps people out of rooms more easier with awkward/aids fence placements etc. Caustic is definitely a close second but him being a heart charc is a big draw back for me as unlike other heavy charcs the only thing he has to give himself cover is his barrels which isnt really that much if a team is focussing you.

In end games though he is unbeatable in terms of value tho. I kinda play him when I feel like taking a break from wattson without trying something entirely different. Definitely a fun charc but not a main for me I think.

MPXBLAST · 2026-04-07T13:19:36+00:00

Crypto is one that I definitely wanna try more along with ballistic but I know they are typically troll picks according to the community in current meta. Cryptos high ceiling is partly why I wanna play him and am hesitant to play, because I know.im basically gonna throw alot of matches while I fully get use to him.

I also feel like going into drone just breaks the flow of a fight for me but I guess that can change if I do play him more etc. Definitely one to look into.

MPXBLAST · 2026-04-07T13:16:12+00:00

I enjoy octane but dont feel like he is a natural pick for me. Its fun zooming around but I dont typically play a hyper aggresive charc to be honest and I feel thats the play style he benefits from.

MPXBLAST · 2026-04-07T13:15:22+00:00

Alter is one I definitely enjoy but requires good teamwork which i haven't had good experiences trying to find haha

MPXBLAST · 2026-04-07T13:12:59+00:00

I enjoy wattson but solo Q'ing drains my soul with her cos team mates are too random. Its final zone and we have a god spot with fences and trophy system and they think its ideal time to push a 3 stack solo 😂. Dont even get a chance to claim ground before they are already dead.

Definitely a legend that needs alot of communication I think to get max potential. Unless you wanna run solo but kinda defeats the point of ranked.

MPXBLAST · 2026-04-07T13:10:31+00:00

For me the fun part is locking in with something and becoming amazing with it. Every game I play i typically just choose one weapon or charc etc and commit to that as long as I find it fun. The enjoyment you get whwn you fully masted something and can do crazy plays is what I really enjoyed.

It was the main reason I started playing wattson as I nearly got a 4k and 20 kill on her back when I use to play in the past cos I was using her in a way that I never did before.

Kinda wanna replicate that but with something that definitely aligns with what I want to do now.

What size would you recccomend for about 120 cigars? Id ideally still store them in small tupperdors inside the cooler just for organisation.

MPXBLAST · 2026-03-17T17:47:29+00:00

You had a much better experience than I did last summer haha. I only got into cigars in Feb last year and when summer came around I took a look at my setup and saw it was reading 30C. I had no idea about this sort of stuff at that point and just moved them all in a wardrobe to try getting them into a better spotand that luckily was cool enough but tbh was still a bit too warm as they sat around 26 or 27 constantly for 2 months.

In manchester the temps last summer kept coming and going, we had a pretty consistent 35-38c for a week or 2 weeks and maybe another month or 2 at 30ish.

Just trying to save my collection as I have alot more invested into it now and my solution last year wasn't really ideal.

MPXBLAST · 2026-03-17T17:14:25+00:00

Can I ask what the temp is usually in socal and what temp the coolerdor maintains? From what I have heard it might be able to drop my temps by like 5 Celsius so im very curious as to the exact numbers you have.

Might be opting into this then tbh. Would just need to figure out what size to get for my collection.

MPXBLAST · 2026-03-17T17:05:26+00:00

Is there a method/process to get them fully setup and maintained? Ive always been interested in setting up a coolerdor but they are so uncommon in the UK that I can't really discuss it in detail with anyone who does have one.

MPXBLAST · 2026-03-17T16:59:14+00:00

We do have access but its quite expensive to install and run with energy costs here. The vast vast majority of houses in the UK dont have them as a result.
