Kandypens K-Vape Review:
My Honest Opinion

Looking for a portable herb vaporizer that delivers a memorable experience and good vapor quality?

The K-Vape by Kandypens is a new portable vaporizer for use with flower herbs.

This model is slightly bigger than your average pen vaporizer, and is slightly different than your average vape pen.

This unit is similar to the G-Pro by Grenco, but I personally feel it out performs the G-Pro in a few notable ways, namely the amount of vapor produced and overall reliability.

It quickly became one of my favorite herbal vape pens. It's definitely one of the better models in my collection.

Most herbal vaporizers typically miss the mark when it comes to vapor quality, and while the K-Vape isn't perfect, it does deliver some of the best vapor quality compared to the other dry herb vape pens that I own.

Lets get into the full review...

Portable Design

The K-Vape has a solid feel and is very portable. It’s small size makes it a great option for on-the-go vaping!

This vape pen, while more of a vape marker than a vape pen, can still easily fit in your pocket and be taken virtually anywhere. It has a very unassuming look to it, so it’s great if you need to be discreet! Its design makes it an obvious choice for me when I’m vaporizing on the go. It’s a great vape for sharing with friends on top of that.

The Mouthpiece

The mouthpiece is made from acrylic materials and occasionally gets a bit hot if you try and go through an entire battery’s worth of charge in a single sitting.

The Heating Chamber

The heating chamber is constructed from high-quality stainless steel, ensuring that all you taste is sweet herbal medicine and not plastic pieces being pushed to their limits.

The chamber has a capacity of about half a gram to a gram of dried material depending on how finely ground it is. 

Cleaning & Maintenance

Cleaning is straightforward as KandyPens was kind enough to include a cleaning brush with their product. It's recommended to give your device a cursory cleaning after every session to prolong the amount of time until a more serious cleaning is needed.

Decent Battery Life

The K-Vape has a passable battery life for its size and price. It has a much stronger battery than any of the other vape pens I’ve tried, stronger in that it produces thick vapor quite easily, not stronger in that it has a long life. I typically get approximately 1 hour of consistent vaporizing from a full charge. The vape is pass-through enabled, meaning that the less than stellar battery life can be augmented by you using the device while it’s plugged in and charging. To help conserve battery, the device features an auto shut-off feature that will turn the device off it hasn’t been used in five minutes.


However the battery life can be stretched if you vaporize at the lowest temperature.

Vapor Quality

This portable delivers some impressive hits of vapor. There are 3 different temperature settings, blue (360 F), green (380 F), and red (420 F). I personally was a big fan of the green setting. I found it to be the most versatile temperature setting. Blue does not produce enough vapor in a fast enough amount of time for me to be completely satisfied, while red doesn’t give me the same flavor profile I have come to enjoy from vaporizing.

This vaporizer uses convection heating to create this experience, which means that the plant matter is heated indirectly by flowing hot air through the chamber. This is more beneficial for taste & smoothness than conduction vaporizers that directly heat cannabis placed on a heating element as there is no chance for accidental combustion and temperature is more rigidly controlled.

I was really surprised after trying this vaporizer for the first time. I assumed this vaporizer would have a similar vapor quality to the G-Pro by Grenco, but I was dead wrong. The hits of vapor I’m able to get from the K-Vape are much smoother than any other herb pen I’ve tried. A lot of vaporizers you won’t know if you’re really getting much out of it until you exhale and inspect the air you breathe out closely, with the K-Vape I always knew I was only moments away from blissful relaxation.

Pros

  • This vape is very reasonably priced
  • It delivers smooth, consistent hits of vapor thanks to convection heating
  • The battery life is satisfactory for a model of its size
  • Comes with 3 different temperature settings

Cons

  • Care must be taken to ensure your plant matter is properly ground for a proper experience
  • thumbs-down
    Prolonged use will result in VERY hot vapor
  • thumbs-down
    Acrylic mouthpiece will become hot with continued use

Do I Recommend the K-Vape?

Absolutely!

Not only is this one of the most reasonably priced vaporizers on the market. It’s also an excellent product. I personally think KandyPens could be charging quite a bit more for this vaporizer, especially since many similar models from competitors come at a much higher price point. What’s interesting about the K-Vape is that a number of other manufacturers produce a vaporizer that looks nearly identical to the K-Vape, but it is obvious after using the model by KandyPens that internals play a big part in this vape’s performance.

KandyPens is a company that has really been making a name for themselves over the past few years, and I myself am a big fan of them. They’re likely one of the more reputable vaporizer companies on the market as far as I’m concerned and I will continue to purchase and test out their products in the future. The K-Vape comes with KandyPens’ lifetime limited warranty, which is practically unheard of in the personal vaporizer market.

Thanks for the excellent review Taylor. I was unsure whether the K Vape would satisfy my needs, but after reading your in-depth review I’m now confident that this is the vape for me. I’ve been looking to buy a dry herb vaporizer for quite awhile now.

Can the kvape be used with solid hash?

Simple answer: No

Longer answer: Right out of the box I would discourage using solid hash with the KVape, after you give it a shot it’s pretty obvious you should have seen it not working out (the inevitable goopy onslaught going through your KVape). However, if you were able to rig up something that would function as a concentrate tray or jury rig the concentrate tray from another vaporizer into working with the KVape, you’d then have a better chance. Do your homework on this one, I can’t be out here recommending unsafe modification to your vaporizer. But, when everything is done right and ingenuity meets creativity, I do love me a good FrankenVape. Otherwise, you’re pretty stuck.

To be honest, hash is completely underrepresented in the vaporizer market. Most manufacturers tend to either cater to dry herb or concentrates that are at a much higher % THC than hash. Hash still has a lot of plant matter in it and that is what creates problems, I can’t think off the top of my head a single device that bills hash vaping as it’s reason for existing.
