The short answer is yes, wax and dab pens are the same, and both will vape concentrates such as wax; they just have different names. They use a solid “dab” of either wax, shatter, or budder. This is then heated and melted, and absorbed by a wick, allowing it to be vaporized. Most of the best wax pens or dab pens can vape any type of concentrate. But be sure to check out what types of concentrates can be vaped by your pen of choice, as some wax pens cannot vape liquid oil (like Butane Hash Oil). It’s always important to know what type of substance you want to vape before searching for a suitable vaporizer.
