What are Honey Bucket Bangers and How Do You Use Them for Dabbing?

A honey bucket is a little different from other dabbing equipment if you have not used one before! A honey bucket dab nail is not exactly a banger or a nail. It is quartz-based. It aims to protect your rig's joints from heat damage that a fixed banger or nail might cause. 

These provide a unique and superb dabbing experience and are in a class by themselves. This article will cover honey bucket bangers. We'll discuss how they work and how to get the best honey bucket dabs.

What is a Honey Bucket Banger?

A honey bucket is a nail with a swinging arm and a bucket at the end. Its unique look will help you spot one. These suit most common rig joints and are available in a variety of sizes and forms. Their consistent quartz construction aids in heat retention and simplifies cleaning. The arm blocks direct heat to the nail. So, you can create various imaginative patterns to match your dab setup's look. Honey buckets are popular for their look. They also work well. They shield your rig from heat damage and keep the bucket warm during your dab session.

The way a honey bucket nail works is by heating the bucket away from your rig on the swinging arm. You swing the bucket into the nail until it fits snugly after it reaches the proper temperature. After that, you put your dab in, cap the top, and hit it as you would any other nail or banger. You may inhale and enjoy the smoke as it gathers in the main nail chamber and flows into your rig.

How to Use a Honey Bucket Banger?

It is surprising how simple it is to use a quartz honey bucket. Many find them easier to use than slurpers, despite having fewer parts. Regular carb caps don't work with honey buckets. Their shapes are too different. Fortunately, most honey buckets have a carb top that matches.

Make sure the one you buy has a cap, or choose one that is the right size for the honey bucket you want to use.

Here is how to use a honey bucket, step by step.

  • Heat the banger bucket on the fixed arm

Extend the arm so the honey bucket faces away from the rig once you have attached it to the arm. Heat the bucket on the arm with a torch. Use a laser thermometer to check the dabbing temperature. You need to heat the bucket in which you will be applying the dab; there is no need to heat the chamber part.

  • Place the bucket in the chamber

Swing the arm back when the bucket has reached a temperature that will allow it to slide into the chamber. Make sure it seats properly, then get ready for your dab.

  • Take your dab

Place your cannabis concentrate into the bucket in the chamber with a dab tool. Remember, terp pearls and implants are incompatible with this type of nail.

  • Cap it

The carb cap is the real key to the whole procedure. Your honey bucket acts like a convection oven once you put it on. When you take a dab, your banger overheats. The heat in the chamber from the bucket causes it. You can start inhaling smoke right away. You'll taste every flavor. And you'll waste less of your dabs by putting the cap on.

  • Clean the bucket

Clean it as one would any other banger. Clean the banger by swabbing with a cotton swab and a little rubbing alcohol while still in the chamber. Then, spin the arm to remove any residue that may still be hanging around inside the chamber. Do this after each use. It will keep your quartz nice and preserve your dabs' flavor.

Honey buckets keep your setup safe. They also extend the taste and shelf life of your dabs. They look pretty great on most any kind of rig, too. Now, after you know how to use them and what to look out for in one, go enjoy your dabs!

How does a Honey Bucket Banger Nail Work?

Much the same as action figures with a lever, honey buckets have moving parts in them that make them fun to operate. An arm dangles from a nail that swivels inside the bucket, which serves as the primary storage space. You can use them to protect the joints of your rig and nails from damage. You can extend the life of your rig and nails if you apply heat to the swinging nail instead of to the joints.

Honey buckets are good for airflow. Once you swing the arm down, they use special carb caps that sit on top of the main chamber, closing it to turn it into an oven. It may heat itself up while you're using it as the nail heats the chamber. So, you can have low-temperature dabs. They will vaporize all your concentrate and give you amazing feelings and flavors.

How to Dab with a Honey Bucket Banger

A honey bucket is easy to use! First, extend the arm and let it heat up. Like a sidearm nail, it truly works best when heated while the arm is away from you and your rig. When the temperature is right, swing it down into the chamber. Then place your concentrate in there using a dab tool and replace the top. Breathe as usual, then take a cotton swab and rubbing alcohol to clean it out.
