No, the HuniTips have not changed in design. However, if you purchase from NC, I believe they remove some of the things that we originally pack it with such as the 14mm adapter, extra pipe cleaners, etc.

would have been better to order from you... but as said had problems with payment on your website on blackfriday... also it seems like that it takes between 5 and 10 working days until nectar collector shipes the orders... hope I will get it before christmas at least new year... it also takes days at the customs normally... haha

Haha yes, due to high volume of traffic, our website was acting funky. All of our orders are shipped usually within a day of ordering. Customers are very happy to receive their orders in 2-3 days :) Gotta compete with Amazon some how!

that’s funny but not funny, my buddy ordered me a hunibadger for Christmas I have been buying all the accessories officially from hunibadger on their site. I love how they have a low temp and a high temp tip. Three people I know make 3D printing Stands for the hunibadger and I try to review all of them, overall a very nice purchase!

Got my shipment from dabnation today and instead of a huni badger it contained a focus v carta, as if I really needed a 4th one of those :\ Hope anyone else who ordered from this vendor actually gets their kit. I called and spoke to someone there who told me they could only resolve this via email, which is a little maddening. Seems like I would have been better off paying the extra $ and going directly through Huni Badger.

After using it for bit of time I have to say I find the high temp tip: huge clouds with no effort (2 to 6 sec draw) but taste lacks a bit...
the low temp tip great taste but smaller clouds...
I am not quite sure how efficient this vape is with my concentrate... if you would like you could take massive hits and plow trough your concentrate like crazy...
btw the heating element is a solid ceramic tube which gets hot (not with poores like headbanger or terp pen)...

cleaning of huni is also very easy... turn on for some heat cycles... will burn tip clean like new...


I like the concept and form factor of terp pen but it is not really reliable and you have to change coils very often for best taste and clouds if you use daily and frequently every 2days... and you have tiodraw for 15 sec (which is to long for my liking)... with new coils very good clouds... taste between low temp and high temp tip of hunibadger...
if the terp pen was more reliable and you would get big clouds with a 6 to 10 sec draw it would win against hunibadger..

headbanger is for me useless... it is what it is a cheap chinese vape and I also have issues regarding the quartz dip coil (thats why I bought it and used it exclusive) my throat become to ache and I am curious about inhaling quartz particles... also heared it is alsmost impossible to clean tip... so this is after using 5 times or so laying in my drawer...

I received my Huni Badger yesterday. I'd watched a few videos about it before it arrived, so I was hitting off of it as soon as I unboxed it. I am running it through a C2 bubbler with a ratchet perc. Wow does this little thing hit! I love that I am not tethered to a table by an Enail cord and can wander around with my bubbler and HB dabbing at will. I ran the high temp tip yesterday, but switched to the low temp tip today. I prefer low temp dabs and the low temp tip works well. I get nice tasty rips that ruin me just fine without the coughing fits or annoyed throat.

I have the Bullet Bubbler on the way from The 710 Store. I got the B grade. Anyone know what the flaw in the label looks like? I don't really care TBH as long as it does its job well. Anyone have any recommendations for other compact bubblers for the HB?

For such a great little device that's made in the US, feels and looks quality, isn't insane $$$ and rips pretty hard, I am surprised how hard I had to work to research it before deciding to buy one. Not a whole lot of chatter about the Huni Badger out in the ether. This thread is a good example. Before mine, the last post was just over 2 years ago. I suppose the Huni Badger resides in a niche market and there are so many mobile devices out there already that it might be lost in the crowd.

I was tempted once, but never bought the HB, I do however use the little Nector Collector bubbler with the 10mm female adapter for use with my Davinci IQ2. Also bought a little 10mm bubbler from Davinci that looks similar to the Bullet. I find all my tiny bubblers just okay, they obviously don’t hold much water to cool, but can take the edge off.
You are the first person I’ve read that’s using the C2 ratchet/sprocket, LOVE mine. Liked it enough to get the mini version too. Enjoy!

I love my C2. I had been using a Dabbing Specialists bubbler for years with my Enail setup, but when I started using log vapes I realized how constrictive it is which got me looking for something else. The C2 bubbler is perfect for me for flower and concentrate.



Not lost, most have moved on to decent temp adjustable options that aren't a glorified soldering iron heater rod...but that does not matter as long as you like it!

If I am enjoying this glorified soldering iron so much, I'd sure like to know what options are out there with decent temp control like you mentioned. Can you give me some examples to check out?

It's funny you posted this week man, I literally just bought a HB now and there is practically nothing out there on the interwebs about a product that has been out for years. I use my DTv5 (which I highly recommend) mostly as my portable wax pen, but lately I have been wanting something to use at my desk at work. My terp pen and terp pen XL were not cutting it so I bit the bullet and ordered an HB. Definitely check out the DTv5 if you want a top of the line temperature control device. Cheers!

Thanks for the info on the DTv5. I haven't used that but I had the DTv4 Crucible. I've had plenty of box mods over the years and TBH, I am over using them and attys anymore. I gave that DTv4 and the mod it was on to my brother a couple years ago.

For desktop use I have an Auber RDK-300B controller and coil which is a great setup, but when I just feel like ripping a couple of quick dabs it's not convenient to pull it all out and set it up and wait for it to heat up. The HB is perfect for doing a few quick rips and so far I have been loving it. For me the HB is small enough for me to consider it a portable unit to easily take with me places. And I love that it's American made, which is one of the reasons I bought it. I does good work on top of my C2.

Hows the HB working out for you?

Definitely check out the v5 man, it's a completely different beast. The sides of the cup heat up and the base is way more solid. I have one as a home enail setup and one as a portable on a pico mod with stash cap. Haven't gotten to try the HB yet, just ordered it yesterday so should arrive some time this week!

The M22 is fantastic with a bottomless banger like you are saying with the DTV5 and others but the Hunny Badger is just so great for getting all the stuff that's in the crevices of the jars that you can never just get, I love mine and the nectar collector bubbler is really cool but functional too. I think it's definitely the best vape straw or electric nectar collector on the market for sure, and that comes from actually trying most of them LOL

Am I going to be able to use it with low-temp tips native? I keep hearing mixed reviews about both the low-temp tips and using it without any glass.

I usually use it for finishing off the jars that the concentrate comes in (which is generally the small glass ones.) And I actually prefer the low temp tips, if you get too much bubbling at once it actually becomes more difficult to find where to suck for the vapor. At least that's been my experience, It's better to use with small amounts of concentrate.

The low temp tip works great so far. It takes 20 seconds or so to heat up from cold. That's enough time for me to grab my pick and load it up. I use it exclusively through water, so I can't tell you how it is dry. I can try it tonight and let you know.

I tried hitting the HB with the high temp tip without water and it wasn't what I would consider pleasant. A bit burny on the lips. Probably be fine with a longer mouth piece.

I want to use it at my desk at work so thinking low-temp tips and hitting it native for micro dabs out of the stash jar. Similar to how I was using my Terp Pen XL.

Yeah that's why I'm hoping the low-temp tips between 15-30 sec or so would be good cuz that gets up to like 500° F which is around the max I hit my DTv5 native.

It's perfect for that., I always use the nectar collector water piece as well. It's a treat, I save my containers, and go at them every once in a while. It's like a dab buffet LOL. Honestly, it is great on its own for regular use, but just separate out a small dab and put it in a glass or strong silicon container and enjoy!

I placed an order for the Huni Badger Pro today.

Fell back in love with my glass nectar collector over the past week and I've always wanted to try a Badger.

Will report back upon arrival after testing!

The pro is very good! I saw it and couldn't resist; it was well worth the purchase. I just got the electric one by Nectar Collector too and they are both quite nice devices, I prefer the form factor of the Honey Badger as it's easier to see the tip when you're using it. For the NC I need to get the tip extender, with that they are both great products.

You will never waste any material once you get either one, all your old jars you can suck up every last bit!! Worth the money with that savings alone.

Got my pro (in purple) in a few days ago. Been using it regularly each afternoon and evening since.

I find myself liking the medium heat setting the best. Low seems too low for the concentrates I have on hand, high works very well but is harsh natively. I chose not to buy a bubbler or attachment until I dialed the device in. Medium temp isn't too harsh on my throat but I do plan to grab a bubbler or repurpose something from my vape collection to help with cooling.

The device is very quick, add in not needing q tips to clean up after each heat and this is an incredibly convenient device. Really enjoying its simplicity, I just use the high heat setting to clean off any excess every few sessions. It looks brand new still, I've run at least 10 sessions a day through it for 4 days with no signs of wear.

Battery life is reasonable, I do keep the little flashlight on which I'm sure impacts it. On high temp settings the battery drains much faster. I would estimate I'm getting about 15 sessions a charge with the flashlight on. I will often end my session with 10-20 seconds left on the timer.

The pro is small and fairly pocket friendly. However I wouldn't trust it without the included case. The battery compartment and compartment protecting the fragile tip are magnetic. And it isn't a very strong magnet for either. The device feels a little more fragile and rattly than I expected to be honest. It's performance makes up for that in my opinion.

It has been winning the reach test for me at home, it's just so convenient. Flavor is decent, a little more muted than a glass rig or Dr Dabber Switch. Clouds are great! Effects are fantastic!

The touchscreen functions very well once the device is on, however sometimes it takes me 2-3 attempts to get it to turn on (5 taps in a second). I think I may prefer a physical button like the OG badger but I chose the pro to have one tip capable of 3 temperature settings. The original badger had interchangeable tips for low and high temps.

Time for me to pull the trigger on a bubbler. I like the form factor of the "bullet" and I will probably grab the donut to use dry.

Well done Huni Badger, this thing is a pleasure to use!
