PHOENIX STAR 7 INCH CYLINDER PERC DAB RIG

Knowing your rig's specs helps you have a better session. Here’s a breakdown of what makes the Phoenix Star 7-inch rig work so well.

These specs point to a well-made, user-friendly rig that's ready to go.

• The 14mm female joint is a standard size, so it's compatible with many accessories.
• The 90-degree joint angle is great for dabbing at a desk.
• Its borosilicate glass build ensures it can handle heat.

Many rigs look similar, but the design choices in this Phoenix Star 7-inch model directly impact its performance. Each feature helps improve your dabbing experience.

How Does The Cylinder Perc Improve Your Dabs?

The cylinder percolator, or insert perc, is the engine of this rig. It’s a vertical tube with slits at the bottom. When you inhale, vapor is forced through these slits, creating many small bubbles. This action cools and filters the vapor by increasing its contact with the water. The process removes harshness, delivering a hit that is smooth and full of flavor.

Why Is A 7-Inch Size Ideal For Dabbing?

A 7-inch height provides a great balance of portability and performance. It’s small enough to be a travel-friendly dab rig that fits easily into a bag. At the same time, it has enough volume to cool vapor effectively without losing flavor. Mini rigs like this one have shorter air paths, which helps preserve the taste of your concentrates.

The combination of a flavor-saving size and a high-diffusion perc makes this rig a top performer.

• The cylinder perc diffuses vapor efficiently for cooler hits.
• Its 7-inch frame is perfect for both home use and travel.
• The compact air path helps preserve the natural flavor of concentrates.

Getting started with your new Phoenix Star rig is easy. Follow these steps for a perfect session every time.

1. Inspect and Clean: Give your new glass a quick rinse with warm water to remove any dust from shipping.
2. Add Water: Fill the rig with enough water to submerge the percolator slits by about a half-inch. Too much water can cause splashback.
3. Attach Banger: Securely place the included 14mm quartz banger into the female joint.
4. Heat the Banger: Use a butane torch to evenly heat the banger's bottom. Wait 30-60 seconds for it to cool to your desired temperature.
5. Dab and Inhale: Use a dab tool to place concentrate into the banger and inhale slowly. Use a carb cap to control airflow for better vaporization.
6. Clean After Use: To keep flavors pure, use a cotton swab to clean out the banger after each dab while it is still warm.

Following a simple setup and cleaning routine ensures your rig performs its best.

• The key is adding the correct water level—just above the perc slits.
• Heating the banger and letting it cool down preserves terpenes.
• A post-session swab of the banger prevents residue buildup.

While this Phoenix Star rig is a strong contender, here’s how it compares to other popular styles in the same budget-friendly price range.

The Phoenix Star rig offers the best balance of specialized filtration and flavor at this price point.

• Its cylinder perc provides better diffusion than most simple beaker rigs.
• It offers more water filtration than a nectar collector.
• It retains flavor better than most silicone alternatives.

Keeping your Phoenix Star rig clean is key for pure flavor and great performance. Regular maintenance prevents buildup and keeps your glass sparkling.

What Is The Best Way To Clean The Cylinder Perc?

Cleaning a cylinder perc is easy. For a deep clean, empty the rig and rinse it with hot water. Then, pour in a mix of 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt. Plug the openings and shake gently for a few minutes. The salt scrubs away residue inside the perc. Pour out the mix and rinse thoroughly with warm water until all the cleaner is gone. Let it air dry before use.

A simple routine of alcohol and salt will keep your cylinder perc working perfectly.

• Use a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and coarse salt for an effective clean.
• Shake gently to let the salt scrub the inside of the percolator.
• Rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove all the cleaning solution.
