All you need to know about the G Pen Micro+ vaporizer

For those unfamiliar with the brand, G Pen is a line of vaporizers and dabbers that vary in portability depending on the model. With the addition of the Micro+, G Pen now offers a hybrid dabber/vape pen for 510 cartridges that fits in the palm of your hand.

The Micro+ is, in and of itself, a rather exceptional product that allows you to vaporize concentrates and also functions as a battery for cartridges. Simple and easy to use, it will satisfy enthusiasts of extracts, whether raw or in cartridge form.

What is the G Pen Micro+?

The G Pen Micro+ is both a dab pen and a battery for refillable 510 cartridge.

The Micro+ features a ceramic and quartz chamber for vaporizing wax, shatter, or other concentrates. The chamber can be unscrewed to reveal the threaded connection for a cartridge. The device is about 10 cm tall, with a circumference similar to that of a lipstick tube. The battery is significantly heavier than those in many vape pens, which makes it feel quite comfortable in the hand.

It comes in a hemp carrying case, along with a small dabtool and a USB-C charging cable. When the device’s battery is low, the LED on the front of the vaporizer flashes five times, and if there is a connectivity issue, it flashes alternately red and green. The device charges in about 90 minutes and contains a long-lasting 850MAH rechargeable LI-ION battery.

How does the G Pen Micro+ work?

The Micro+ is quite simple to use. To vaporize concentrates, first unscrew the mouthpiece from the base. Then, using a dabtool, add your concentrate to the ceramic chamber. After reattaching the mouthpiece, press the power button five times to turn on the device and twice to activate automatic heating (set to medium by default). A haptic response (a vibration) alerts you when the selected temperature is reached in less than 10 seconds, after which you can inhale through the silicone mouthpiece.

When using the Micro+ with 510 cartridges, remove both the mouthpiece and the ceramic tank, which both unscrew effortlessly from the main body. The threaded connection is located beneath the tank. Once the cartridge is screwed on, press the power button five times to turn it on, then activate automatic heating by pressing the button twice more, or simply hold the button down while the light pulses, then release it when the light stays on for «manual» vaporization.

The Micro+ offers three distinct temperature settings for cartridges and dabs and delivers heat manually or automatically, depending on your preference. The cartridge recognition technology predicts optimal temperatures and ensures a smooth, balanced vaporization experience, regardless of the concentrate’s texture or extraction method, making cartridges and dabs easy to smoke.

The tank’s regular convection ensures effortless cleaning after each dab. The Micro+ automatically turns off after five minutes of inactivity.

Temperature Change

The power button on the front of the Micro+ is surrounded by an LED that pulses in three different colors to indicate temperature, power status, and, if applicable, connectivity issues. Although the Micro+ uses technology that intuitively predicts and adjusts temperatures and voltage based on the product being vaporized, users can easily navigate to their individual heating preferences.

For dabbing concentrates in the ceramic tank:

• Blue: low heat
• Green: moderate heat
• Red: high heat

For the carts, the voltages are color-coded as follows:

• Blue: 2.5 volts
• Green: 2.75 volts
• Red: 3 volts

You can switch between these temperature settings by pressing the power button three more times after startup. In automatic heating mode, the temperature is maintained for 10 seconds before the unit shuts off.

How do I clean the Micro+?

The ceramic inner chamber and bowl detach easily from the device and can be cleaned with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol to remove any residue. The silicone tip is easy to clean, as is the exterior of the device. None of the parts need to be submerged to be cleaned effectively.

Do not attempt to clean the appliance's parts after use until it has had at least five minutes to cool down to a comfortable handling temperature.
