Bongs are water pipes that stand upright, and you put the mouthpiece over your lips.
Bubblers are a different kind of water pipe with a mouthpiece that goes between your lips. So, we consider them as water pipes, separate from bongs. Just remember: All bongs are water pipes, but not all water pipes are bongs.
What’s the difference between a bong and a dab rig?
Like bongs, dab rigs use water to filter cannabis. However, the key difference is that bongs use a bowl piece for burning flower, while dab rigs have a nail or banger for vaporizing oil, known as dabs. It’s worth mentioning that you can use any bong for concentrate vaporization if you switch out the bowl piece for a nail or banger. But bongs aren’t designed specifically for concentrates, so it’s better to use purpose-built dab rigs for the best experience.
Bongs and bubblers, both popular among cannabis enthusiasts, showcase distinct designs in the world of water pipes. Bongs, characterized by their upright stance, have a mouthpiece placed over your lips. On the other hand, bubblers, although also water pipes (bongs), differ in their design with a mouthpiece that goes between your lips. Remember, all bongs fall under the category of water pipes, but not all water pipes are bongs. Bongs employ a bowl piece for burning flower, while dab rigs utilize a nail or banger for vaporizing cannabis concentrates known as dabs.
Choosing the right device depends on your preferred cannabis consumption method, with bongs excelling in flower use and dab rigs optimized for concentrates.
