What's A Recycler Bong?

2022-07-11

Introduction

Recycler bongs are a type of water pipe that uses a series of chambers to cool and filter smoke. They're also called multi-chamber bongs or recyclers in the cannabis community. Traditional bongs are straight tubes with one chamber, which means your hit will pass through water once before getting vaped up by the bowl attachment at the other end. A recycler bong has two or more chambers, each acting as a second chance for smoke to be filtered through water before reaching your lungs. Both types of bongs can look similar from afar—but under closer examination, they're quite different!

When you take a hit from a recycler, you will see bubbles of smoke rise up through the water. This is because as soon as your hit hits the air, some of it starts falling back down into your chamber again. As this happens over and over again, all of your smoke passes through more and more layers of water before making its way back into your mouthpiece for another hit.

The reason why this works so well is that it filters out many harmful substances from marijuana plants such as tar and ash while cooling down harsh hot spots in high-temperature areas like near burners or lighters that may contain carcinogens such as benzene (a known carcinogen).

As a result, most smokers prefer using recyclers because they provide a cleaner smoking experience with less aftertaste than other types of bongs do (such as traditional hand pipes). In addition, many people find them easier on their throats since there's no need for inhalation technique when taking each hit; simply hold onto one end while holding down on an open flame below until vaporized THC begins filling up inside!

How much does a recycler bong cost?

Recyclers come in all shapes, sizes, and prices: from $20 to $1,000+. There are a few ways to look at the cost of a recycler bong. One way is by analyzing how much money you're saving on materials and how much time it takes to make the piece (used to be they were hand-blown, but now they're mostly plastic). The other way is by thinking about what kind of style you want and how much money you want to spend.

The price range for recyclers varies depending on what material is used for construction (glass vs aluminum vs acrylic), but we've found that most people prefer glass or acrylic because they're more durable than aluminum. Glass has been used for years because it's so sturdy; however, it can be pricey if broken! Acrylic recyclers tend to be cheaper than glass ones since they're lighter weight—but they do scratch easier too...so beware!

How do recycler bongs work?

Recycler bongs are designed to filter the smoke through water. This is great for several reasons:

  • The water cools the smoke, making it smoother and easier on your lungs.

  • The water filters out harmful particles that could get into your body when you inhale.

  • A percolator breaks up the smoke into smaller particles so they can be filtered even more effectively.

Recycler Bong vs Straight Tube Bong

Recycler bongs are generally more expensive than straight tube bongs, and you might think that this price increase is for the additional features. The reality is that most recycler bongs are assembled from parts that have to be purchased separately. You will have to purchase a percolator, downstem, and bowl/nail as well as a diffuser attachment for your recycler.

Recyclers also require more cleaning since there are multiple pieces that need to be disassembled and cleaned at different times; they also tend to hold more water which makes them harder to dry out when not in use!

Straight tube bongs tend to be more durable because they're made out of one piece of glass rather than multiple pieces glued together with silicone. If you want something that will last longer than your college days (or maybe even longer), then it's best if you opt for a straight tube over an elaborate design like a recycler

Are recycler bongs better than straight tube bongs?

Recycler bongs are more efficient at filtering smoke than straight tube bongs. As the smoke is pulled into the chamber, it passes through water. This is where most of the filtration happens, so when you inhale through the mouthpiece, you get clean and smooth hits. Straight tube bongs don't have this feature!

Recycler bongs are also more durable than straight tubes. With a recycler bong, if something breaks or malfunctions in your rig, it's usually easy to fix yourself (with help from Youtube videos). A broken straight tube might mean replacing an entire piece of equipment—not just parts like a downstem or bowl adapter! And since they're not made out of the glass like recyclers are? That can get expensive real fast!

If you're looking for something portable then look no further - recyclers are perfect for taking with you on trips whether it be camping trips or festivals; Their portability makes them great additions to any collection because they don't take up much space at all which makes them perfect for traveling with too!

What is a percolator and does my recycler bong have one?

A percolator is a device comprised of water and a chamber, allowing smoke to travel through the water in order to cool it down.

A recycler bong has 2 chambers. The first chamber is where you place your herbs, while the second chamber (a recycling bowl) contains ice cubes or water in order to cool down the smoke before it reaches your mouth.

The main function of a percolator is to filter out all impurities from cannabis herbs so that only pure goodness remains at the end of your session. This means no harsh hits for you!

Conclusion

If you’re looking to buy a bong, but you don’t know where to start, then a recycler bong is an excellent choice. They are easy to use and clean, plus they produce smooth hits every time!
