LANTERN STYLE RECYCLER PERCOLATOR RIG

Knowing the specs ensures you have the right accessories and understand what this rig can do. This table breaks down what each feature means for your sessions.

What Are The Key Specifications?

This rig features a standard 14mm female joint, making it compatible with a wide range of popular quartz bangers and add-ons. The 7-inch height gives a good balance between a long cooling path and a manageable size.

• The rig stands 7 inches tall with a stable 3.5-inch base.
• It uses a durable, scientific-grade borosilicate glass frame.
• It features a 14mm female joint for wide banger compatibility.

The two main features of this rig are its recycler function and the internal percolator. Together, they create a powerful filtration system that sets it apart from more basic dab rigs.

How Does The Recycler Function Improve Sessions?

A recycler works by pulling water and vapor together through external tubes and back into the main chamber. This longer journey cools the vapor for a smoother inhale and reduces splashback. Because the water is constantly moving, you get fresh filtration with every pull, which helps keep the pure flavor of your concentrates.

What Is The Benefit Of The Percolator?

Before the recycler takes over, the vapor first passes through a percolator at the base. This initial step diffuses the vapor into smaller bubbles, increasing the surface area that touches the water. This provides the first stage of cooling, preparing the vapor for the recycler to deliver an exceptionally smooth hit.

• The recycler function provides a longer path for vapor to cool down.
• This process results in a smoother hit with less harshness.
• The design effectively prevents water from reaching the mouthpiece.

Getting the most out of this recycler rig is easy. The right water level and a good heating technique are key to unlocking its full potential.

How Do I Get Started With This Rig?

Start by filling the rig with water. The best level is just enough to cover the percolator's slits. This allows for a gentle bubbling action without the water reaching the joint when you inhale. Once filled, attach your 14mm male quartz banger, heat it to your desired temperature, and enjoy the smooth function.

Simple 5-Step Guide to Your First Session

1. Fill with Water: Add water until the percolator slits are submerged, about 1/4 to 1/3 full.
2. Attach Banger: Securely place your 14mm male quartz banger into the female joint.
3. Heat Banger: Use a torch to heat the banger evenly. Let it cool to your preferred dabbing temperature.
4. Apply Concentrate: Place your concentrate in the banger and cover it with a carb cap.
5. Inhale Slowly: Inhale gently and steadily to activate the recycler function. Watch the vortex!

• The correct water level is very important for the recycler to work properly.
• A slow, steady inhale prevents splashback and maximizes cooling.
• This rig is compatible with 14mm male bangers.

Finding the right rig depends on your priorities. While the Lantern Recycler is great for filtration and flavor, other rigs in this price range can offer benefits like portability or simplicity.

What Makes This Rig A Great Value?

At under $60, this rig offers a high-performance recycler function often found in more expensive pieces. The durable borosilicate glass and classic design provide lasting value for anyone looking for top-tier filtration without a premium price tag.

• Recycler functionality offers performance normally found in pricier rigs.
• Borosilicate glass ensures durability and a long life for the rig.

Keeping your recycler rig clean is key to making sure it works properly and delivers the best flavor. Regular maintenance prevents buildup in the narrow tubes.

How Should I Clean And Maintain This Rig?

For a deep clean, fill the rig with a mix of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt. Plug the openings and shake gently, letting the salt scrub the inside surfaces. Pay special attention to the recycler tubes. Rinse very well with warm water afterward until all the alcohol is gone. For daily care, just rinse with hot water after your last session to reduce buildup.

• Frequent rinsing with hot water helps prevent residue from hardening.
• A solution of ISO alcohol and salt is effective for deep cleaning glass.
• Make sure all openings are plugged before shaking to clean.

A consistent routine before and after your sessions will extend the life of your rig and ensure it is always ready to go.

What Do I Need To Do Before My First Use?

Before using your new rig for the first time, it's good practice to check it for any damage that may have happened during shipping. Give it a quick rinse with warm water to remove any dust or debris from the packaging.

First Use Checklist

• Inspect: Check the entire rig for any cracks or fractures.
• Rinse: Wash with warm water to ensure it's clean.
• Test Fit Banger: Gently place your 14mm banger in the joint to confirm a snug fit.
• Fill Water: Add water to the correct level, covering the perc.
• Test Airflow: Inhale without a heated banger to check the recycler function.
• Prepare Space: Set up on a stable, flat surface away from flammable items.

How Should I Care For The Rig After Use?

After your final session of the day, dump the used water and rinse the rig with hot water. This small step makes a huge difference in preventing stubborn stains and residue. Store it in an upright position in a safe place where it won't be knocked over.

• Always inspect new glassware for shipping damage before use.
• Rinsing with hot water after use dramatically reduces reclaim buildup.
