Rio Portable Dab Rig by Stache Products

I finally got my RIO. I was able to grab the $50 one off the classifieds. Red would not have been my first choice but hey $50.

The joint on the banger is cracked so I’m going shopping. Anybody have an opinion on which banger is best? At the moment I’m mostly using live rosin.

My OG is black, and I could not resist the teal/orange makeover... I got two.
I got the OG blue/white swirl, then the purple/yellow, then the matte purple. Stache is saying the matte teal is almost out, and will be gone, so I'm thinking we might be looking at new colorways coming up.
I've got the purple swirl at my main sesh station to remind me to dab more, and I keep grabbing it to use as a waterpiece for dry herb. It's just so comfortable to use.
Is the teal/orange as gorgeous as it looks?
Isn't it odd to crave a color? I do, though.

I highly recommend @710Coils
They are good quality for a reasonable price and even more importantl, seem to line up with the RiO torch better than some others.

Teal orange looks even better in person, it has a sparkle to it...

As for bangers, I love round bottom and standard bangers with my RiO. I hate the stock core bangers, but it is personal preference.

710 is a great option for any quartz needs.
I like the Stashe bangers for their cost and welded joints, but I find their joints never fit perfectly and all have a little wobble.

I thought it might. The purple/yellow is much prettier than expected, so I thought the teal/orange might be. The stock core banger is awful, and I need to get better bangers on here.

Got home from work yesterday and wanted a dab. My Ispire Daab needed charged and I wasn't in the mood to use my puffco peak.

Cleaned up the RIO and had a great time. This thing is just dead simple and reliable. Great zombie apocalypse dab rig lol.

Today after work I will run through all of my bangers on it. Last time I ended up settling on the core banger but I was a little shy with the torch due to inexperience with concentrates. I'll use more heat on some of the thicker bangers and see how she goes.

Can't wait to get home 😂.

It's funny, you mention the stocker being awful. I've personally grown to love it. It takes a slightly different timing than I was used to, now it's my go to on the Rio
You know, @Clapped_r6 , I'm sometimes an idiot, and that was a stupid comment on my part. What I should have said was, " I haven't put the time and effort into learning how to best use this banger, " and instead basically said I'd rather blame the banger, then buy a different banger hoping it's a magical fit. The stock banger isn't initially a natural fit, as the longer I torch, the more I start to panic. It always seems that I take too long. My timing is for crap, and I'm not dabbing enough with RIO to get better. It might be I don't ultimately end up liking this banger, but it's possible I could, and would be cheaper than not, as I have three already.

I'm enjoying the quartz bottom core banger and the original core banger the most. My round bottom banger tends to chazz and only fits the stock carb cap. Flat bottom round banger was blown slightly off spec so the liquid pools all on one side unfortunately.

Quartz bottom core banger takes a few more seconds of heat but the results were great and cleanup easy.

@637vape Thank you for the smooth purchase of your RIO. I’ve been on vacation the past 10 days and came home to it yesterday.

I had two sessions with my home grown/pressed rosin. Rosin can be very delicate but I had no problem keeping the temps low and pulling some really nice first hits.

My other concentrate rig is a DCup, which I absolutely love, but the RIO is going to be great when I just want an impromptu quick dab without the setup and heat up time that the DCup has.

Picked up a teal RIO from VapeNorth and SneakyPete! He dropped the price recently so I jumped at the chance as I’ve been torn on what to get for a dab rig. All I knew was I wanted quartz for a mail. There’s one purple left I think over there still. He’s out of the rest he had.
Can not wait.

I would usually add a link but not sure if that was a copy and legit, that and the fact you need to purchase a minimum of 12 units with the examples I have seen!

I was just going by the design of where the two glass tubes that the air/water bubbles are supposed to go through, and how that just looks like it can't possibly function properly as a recycler. I thought you posted it ironically, making fun of that bullshit.

I’m really loving my RiO. I wonder what Stache has in store for us once the Matte edition is discontinued?
