I heated this thing up for 90 seconds to see what temp it could get to, and it was around 1200 F; awesome. Let it cool down to about 550 and took a small dab; clean. Qtips fit perfectly if you roll em along the inside curve and this banger stays clean. I prefer cold start dabs, and this works a lot better for that. 15 seconds with a small hand torch gets right to melting and a short boil.

It was great the first day then when I was heating it up, the second day, it cracked... which it was then broken :/

Takes a while to get the right temp but stays HOT for a quick 2nd dab! Hard to keep nice with regular q tips but add some glob mops to the order and you’re in good shape!

I've tried a few of different designs of quartz banger and the core style is my favorite. It's great for low temp, but takes some getting used to; I find it holds heat so well that I have to let it cool longer than a plain bucket. The materials and joints on this are top notch, too.
