Folks rightfully scrutinize their vapes now more than ever. The old days of accepting and dealing with some irritation and frustration with older era devices are over. Today, people want smooth hits from a functional, sleek device.

Many find smooth hits with vapes and elevate the experience with a bong. Vaping through a bong is a simple and effective way to cool down hits and enhance the experience with often smoother, less likely to irritate your throat hits.

The Chill bong is a unique and innovative way to cool down smoke. And thanks to the integration of leading tech, Chill is doing the same for vapor. Want to find out for yourself? Read on to learn how bongs enhance the vape experience and how you can do so through the Chill Bong.

Why Vape Through a Bong?

The benefits of vaping through a bong are similar to smoking dry flower. In short, water helps cool down hits of both kinds, making the experience smoother and more enjoyable for consumers.

Vaping flower or concentrates is typically easier on the lungs and throat than smoking weed. Still, both can agitate the lungs and throat if too many rips are taken. Adding a bong to the mix helps reduce the risks and enhance the overall experience for many.

Among the numerous benefits of using a bong is the lower temperatures created by the pipe's body and the cool water in the base. Adding a bong to vaping dry flower or concentrates can help consumers cool their hits more effectively while adding ample room between their lungs and freshly pulled vapor.

Adding distance from the pull to the mouth and running vapor through bong water makes those hits much cooler and smoother. The result is not only smoother hits but often prolonged sessions. Many consumers report that adding a bong to their vaping session helps them enjoy more hits during a session without experiencing any issues.

Plus, vaping through a bong is rather unique. By trying cool and unique hybrid configurations, consumers can be further exposed to the extraordinary possibilities created by bongs, vapes, and other devices.

Benefits of Vaping Through a Chill Bong

Any bong with the capability to fit a 14mm tapered vape (or a vape with a 14mm adapter) can improve the experience. But using a top-of-the-line bong will enhance things even more.

That's where Chill's stainless steel water pipes come in. Chill offers superior cooling capabilities, allowing smokers and vape enthusiasts to enjoy hours of ice-cold hits without worrying about the water warming or needing to replace the ice.

The need to get all new hardware disappears when you have the right tools. And with Chill's compatibility, consumers can pair any vape device with the same width downstem. That's why The Chill Bong is easy to use with dozens of vape devices and configurations. Plus, with a metal exterior, the Chill bong can go anywhere, all while staying cool thanks to industry-leading vacuum insulation technology made popular in the beverage bottle industry.

The Chill bong even has an extra sturdy rubberized design to help with grip and durability. Since the base and neckpiece twist apart, you can even take it traveling with you, keeping it ice cold all day, with the complimentary Lid & Plug Set.

The modularity and simple breakdown also means you can wipe out The Chill Bong with 70% isopropyl alcohol after every sesh. Keeping your bong optimally clean gives the best flavor possible. Wipe, rinse, reassemble, and you're ready for the next flavor.

Using a Dry Herb Vape with a Chill Bong

Dry flower vapes allow consumers to enjoy the benefits of cannabis without the combustion that keeps some away from smoking. The DynaVap VonG is one of our favorites to do the job.

It is known as "your water piece's new best friend," and we agree. Capable of producing enjoyable hits on its own or in collaboration with a water piece, The VonG (i) delivers on creating an exceptional dry herb vape experience.

Like the Chill bong, the VonG is made of durable USA steel. It helps eliminate combustion, preserve terps, and do it all using as little herb as possible. Best of all, the VonG nestles right into the Chill bong for an enhanced, one-of-a-kind dry flower experience.

Here's how to use the DynaVap VonG with a Chill bong:

1. Grind your flower to a fine consistency and load it into your VonG's tip chamber/bowl.
2. Place the cap back on the tip.
3. Heat the DynaVap VonG using a torch or induction heater until you hear the click, typically taking five to seven seconds.
4. Attach the DynaVap VonG to the Chill bong through the bowl or the down stem.
5. Inhale through The Chill bong, enjoying the cooled and filtered vapor.

The VonG has a 10mm and 14mm tapered mouthpiece to partner with female waterpiece openings. Make sure when you place the DynaVap VonG in the Chill bong, you get a good seal. For best results, adjust the airflow as needed to get the hit volume where you need it to be.

Using a 510 Vape with a Chill Bong

510 thread cartridges are male ends of carts that contain ten metal threads. Set at .5 mm intervals, cartridges are attached to batteries with twist-on threading size 510. These carts first became popular in the early 2000s with electronic smoking but have since become linked to cannabis vaping as well.

Vaping with a 510 cartridge is about as easy as it can come. Consumers can screw on a 510 cart to a standard battery and inhale through the mouthpiece to take a hit. While often smooth, coughing and some throat and lung irritation can occur using certain oils or devices or by consuming enough to agitate the body in one or more ways.

It wasn't long before tech married the bong and the 510 setup, making delicious vape hits now cooler and even less irritating to the lungs. In addition to leading bongs and oil cart vapes, the process is all made possible by dab caps, which help fit vape carts and batteries into the pipe.

Numerous types of dab caps help consumers connect their battery to the bong using various setups. From classic caps to longer tubes and plenty more, consumers have a number of ways to hook up their bongs and vapes. We're fans of the Original Dab Cap, which adds a seal-forming adapter to the mouthpiece of a 510 cartridge.

Attaching a 510 vape with The Chill Bong requires the use of a dab cap and a few simple steps:

1. Attach the 510 vape cartridge to a fully charged battery, ideally one with a button control.
2. Place the dab cap on the mouthpiece of the 510 vape cartridge.
3. Invert the pen and insert the dab cap into the downstem of a Chill bong.
4. Turn on the 510 vape and inhale through the Chill bong like you would a bong hit.

And make sure you're holding the dab cap at the right angle to seal the adapter against your downstem.

Troubleshooting Any Issues

The Chill bong is your best friend for better flavor and comfort, but vapes are gonna vape. Before using a vape cartridge or dab attachment with a Chill Steel Pipe, be sure to check for clogging and any fitting issues.

A clogged vape will make a 'pop' that releases a ton of almost-burnt vapor rather than the best flavor. Clogs force the battery to work overtime as it takes longer to hit a pen or device, so don't let them work against your flavor goals.

Cleaning a pen before use provides the best outcome. Use a cleaning kit or dental pick to gently dislodge any resin or build-up in the vape's mouthpiece. Keep any bangers fully clean by using an alcohol-soaked Q-tip before and after any dabs, electronic or otherwise.

Thanks to its modular design, the Chill bong elevates any smoking or vaping experience. Maintaining the Chill bong is just as easy. Check out this recent blog post on how to clean your stainless steel pipe.
