Frequently Asked Questions
For your convenience, we've included a helpful FAQ section on each collection page to address common questions and provide valuable insights.
How Much Is A Cart?
Empty carts typically cost anywhere between $1 and $10 depending on the brand and materials. Filled dab carts can cost anywhere between $20 for a lower end, half-gram cart, and $100 for a higher-end, full gram cart. Those prices can of course vary, but a pretty standard cost for a full gram, a decent quality cart is around $60 to $80.
How Long Do Carts Last?
It all depends on how much you puff them! If you puff throughout the day, the cart will run out much faster. But if you save it for little moments where you need some peace of mind or other beneficial effects in a pinch, a full gram dab cart can last you weeks.
How To Unclog A Cart
There are a few things you can try. First, start simple by rubbing it between your hands - the heat may help loosen clogged oil or wax. Next, try a hair dryer on the lowest setting to heat the cart. If that still doesn’t work, you can try placing the cartridge inside of a sealed waterproof zip lock and running it under hot water, which should definitely loosen clogs.
Are Dispensary Carts Safe?
As long as you are buying from a legal dispensary that carries legal, third-party lab-tested dab carts, they should absolutely be safe to smoke. Always be cautious when purchasing from questionably legal shops or even friends and acquaintances as those carts may not be tested and may be unsafe.

What Are Dab Carts?
Dab carts, also known as dab cartridges or dab pen carts, are specialized containers designed to hold cannabis concentrates for vaporization. These empty cartridges serve as the delivery mechanism for concentrated cannabis extracts, allowing users to enjoy their preferred concentrates in a convenient, portable format.
Empty dab carts typically consist of a glass or plastic chamber, a heating element, and a mouthpiece. When attached to a compatible battery, these cartridges heat the concentrate to produce vapor for inhalation, offering a discreet and efficient consumption method.
Types of Empty Dab Cartridges
The market offers various types of empty cartridges to suit different preferences and applications:
Glass Cartridges
Glass empty vape cartridges are premium options known for their purity of flavor and resistance to chemical reactions with concentrates. These cartridges preserve the terpene profiles of concentrates and provide a clean taste experience.
Ceramic Cartridges
Ceramic empty carts feature ceramic heating elements that deliver consistent vapor production with excellent flavor preservation. Many premium CCELL vape products utilize ceramic technology for superior performance.
Disposable Options
For convenience-focused users, disposable dab pens offer an all-in-one solution with pre-installed batteries and cartridges designed for single use.
Benefits of Using Empty Cartridges
There are several advantages to using empty dab cartridges:
- Customization: Fill with your preferred concentrate type and potency
- Cost-effectiveness: Purchasing empty carts in bulk reduces long-term expenses
- Quality control: Complete oversight of what goes into your cartridge
- Sustainability: Refillable options reduce waste compared to disposable alternatives
- Versatility: Compatible with various concentrate formulations
Filling Empty Dab Carts
Properly filling empty cartridges ensures optimal performance and user experience. For small-scale operations, manual filling with syringes works well. For commercial applications, dab cart filling machines increase efficiency and consistency.
Key considerations when filling empty dab cartridges include:
- Warming concentrates to appropriate viscosity before filling
- Avoiding overfilling to prevent clogging
- Ensuring proper settling to eliminate air bubbles
- Using appropriate thinning agents when necessary
- Allowing adequate time for wicking before use

Retail Packaging
Custom packaging for dab carts enhances brand identity and communicates important product information to consumers.
Blister Packaging

Packaging Compliance for Vape Cartridges
Dab carts, a type of cannabis concentrate delivered via vape cartridges, are regulated as manufactured cannabis products in California. According to the Department of Cannabis Control, these products must be packaged in containers that are child-resistant, tamper-evident, and resealable when applicable. Proper packaging is essential not just for legal compliance but also for preserving potency and preventing contamination. For consumers, compliant dab cart packaging provides visual assurance of product integrity and brand professionalism at the point of sale.
Strategic packaging considerations include:
- Compliance with local regulations regarding warning labels
- Clear potency indicators to inform consumers
- Brand-consistent design elements
- Child-resistant features where required
- Sustainable materials to appeal to environmentally conscious consumers
As the market for cannabis concentrates expands, manufacturers of empty dab carts and cartridge batteries continue to innovate, providing consumers with increasingly sophisticated and user-friendly options for enjoying their preferred concentrates.
