Start with hardware, then narrow by size and oil type. Live resin is an overlay category, not a replacement for hardware.

Vapes 101: Pick Hardware First, Then Filter by Oil + Size

The fastest way to shop vapes is to treat hardware as the category, size as the subcategory, and oil type as an overlay filter. That structure matches how people actually search: “2g disposable,” “live resin carts,” or “AIO pen near me.”

Hardware Breakdown

  • Cartridges (510): Requires a compatible 510 battery. Easy swaps. Often the simplest long-term option.
  • Disposables: All-in-one device. No separate battery. Convenience-heavy. Common size-based shopping (1g/2g).
  • AIO Pens: Rechargeable hardware with prefilled oil. Convenience without a separate battery.

Oil Type Overlays (Not a Hardware Replacement)

  • Distillate: Often the baseline option. Label quality varies widely by brand.
  • Live Resin: Typically sought for aroma/flavor profiles versus many distillates (brand dependent).
  • Full Spectrum: “Broader profile” labeling—always verify what the brand means by it.
  • Live Rosin: Usually premium and often positioned as solventless (verify labeling/testing where required).

Quick “Compare Value” Checklist

  • Hardware fit: 510 vs disposable vs AIO (don’t buy the wrong format).
  • Rechargeable? Disposables vary; AIO is typically rechargeable.
  • Size: 1g is “trial-friendly”; 2g is “longer-lasting” intent.
  • Label signals: batch/lot info and required testing info (where applicable).
  • Brand consistency: repeatable packaging + clear specs is usually a better sign than hype.
  • Price signals: compare price-per-gram only after matching hardware + oil type.

Common Routing Questions

Why do you separate “hardware” from “oil type”?

Because “live resin” can exist in cartridges, disposables, or AIO pens. Separating them creates clean pages that scale and match search intent.

What should I click first on this page?

Start with your hardware: cartridges if you already have a battery, disposable for grab-and-go, or AIO for rechargeable convenience.

Where do 1g and 2g pages fit?

Size is a subcategory that captures high-intent searches. It’s most useful on disposables and AIO. Cartridges are typically 1g-driven in many markets.
