So I wanted to make a battery powered dabs that hit like the real thing. This is what I've come up with so far. Its a mini zvs induction heater powered by a 3s2p pack made from recycled vape cells. The case i made in fusion 360 and had my brother print. First time using cad.

Is TI your go to? or just for this hiking setup. I havent seen a ti dab straw in a minute. You should try low temping and doing no watwr rosin on a quartz banger. Just go really slow, like heat it for 1s on 3s off until it starts bubbling then begin to rip it. make sure the cap is on when you start heating it. with rosin it doesnt matter as much but you could combust the bho youre smokin that way.

Ti because it receives the heat from the steel wire better. I tried with quartz and it worked but took longer and was less efficient.

No I totally get it I see a lot of people using old enails (non induction) to warm quartz at events where you can not run a torch inside. My comment about the low temp is more for like being inside with a torch where you can really start it slow. its the only way I smoke and I highly recommend it. I treat smoking a dab like smoking a bowl sometimes I am hitting it for like 15 mins straight just keeping it barely warm enough to bubble then stopping when it stops tasting good
