The WaxNax team is back with another Dab Digest deep dive—and this week, we’re breaking down one of the most game-changing tools in concentrate culture: the Nectar Collector. Whether you’re hiking a trail, dancing at a beach party, or vibing at your favorite local spot, nectar collectors have evolved into the ultimate travel companion for dabbers on the move.
A Brief History of Nectar Collectors
Back in the early days of dabbing, portable options were limited. Dab rigs were bulky, torches were intimidating, and discretion wasn’t really in the vocabulary. Then came the nectar collector, a straw-style vaporizer that changed everything. Originally just a simple glass or silicone tube heated with a torch, the concept was to let users “sip” their dabs straight from a dish. Easy to use and ultra-portable, the nectar collector quickly became a fan favorite for on-the-go consumption.
But innovation didn’t stop there.
Today’s Nectar Collectors: Devices That Redefine Convenience
Tech has come a long way, and modern nectar collectors now combine sleek design with powerful features. Let’s look at some of the top players redefining this essential dabbing tool:
Dip Devices – Little Dipper & EVRI
Dip Devices delivers power and portability in one smooth package. The Little Dipper is affordable, compact, and rechargeable—perfect for quick sessions without the hassle. The EVRI ups the game with a multi-functional tip that works with cartridges, dabs, and even e-juice.
Boundless – Terp Pen
The Terp Pen by Boundless is the perfect blend of minimalism and efficiency. Just inhale to activate—no buttons, no mess. Its stainless steel build and pen-like profile make it easy to pocket and even easier to use on the fly.
Huni Badger
For those who like a little extra power, the Huni Badger delivers. Its high-temp ceramic tip ensures huge vapor hits, while interchangeable attachments give you full control over your experience. Despite its performance, it’s still ultra-compact—built for the road.
