Background
The Yocan Black ARC is an eRig that is compatible with wax/dab and retails for $100 (use coupon TVG10 for 10% off at vape-smart.)
It was released together with three other dab vaporizers- the Celestial, MAX, and ACE, which I have separate reviews for.
Design & Features
The ARC shares the same ergonomic form as the MAX when it comes to the trigger operation and the OLED screen, but this is a dab straw, meaning instead of loading the extract in the coil, you dip the coil that is located at the tip into the container.
The activation button is a trigger (that makes a lot of sense), and overall this vaporizer is very comfortable to hold and use.
It has RGB lights below and a little OLED display with plus/minus buttons on the sides.
The tip gets hot and boils any concentrate that is close enough, and the resulting vapor is inhaled upward through these two holes, and into the bubbler.
Bottom Line
Dab Straws gained popularity in the last couple of years, and it is becoming the “go-to” method for more and more users. At around $100, this is not one of the cheapest out there, but it is significantly better than most.
I have here a Lookah, the new XMAX I just reviewed, and a few others, and the Yocan is easily the best in the bunch.
I especially like the way it stands, unlike most that have to be held, and just the overall grip and trigger usage are intuitive and satisfying.
