Dr.Dabber Switch Black Review

I recently got my hands on the new Dr.Dabber Switch Black and have been using it for the past couple weeks now. Here's my honest review after putting this thing through its paces!

Overall - I'm really impressed! This is a high quality, versatile vaporizer that delivers awesome flavor and potent hits. It's a bit pricy at around $400 but if your looking for a premium home dab rig, the Switch is hard to beat.

Quick Overview

The Switch is a dual use vaporizer that can handle both wax concentrates and dry herb. It uses induction heating to quickly and efficiently heat your material, without the hassle of using a torch. Some key things about the Switch:

2-in-1 design works with wax and dry herb
Induction heating for fast, controlled heating
Comes with two induction cups - black for dry herb, white for wax
OLED screen shows temp setting and battery life
Huge hits and awesome flavor
Around $400 retail price

Heating Method

The Switch uses induction heating, which is different from traditional conduction or convection vapes. Induction heating uses electromagnetic energy to directly heat your material, rather than heating the air or surfaces around it. This allows for incredibly fast heat up times while still preserving flavor and vapor quality.

I was blown away by how quickly the Switch got up to temp - usually in under 10 seconds. This lets you take hit after hit with minimal downtime. The induction cups also cool down quickly so you can handle them comfortably right after a session.

Vapor Quality

In terms of vapor production and flavor, the Switch performs amazingly well. Hits are very smooth yet potent, and the flavor profile comes through clean and accurately. I think the induction heating method really helps preserve terpenes while still extracting thoroughly.

The dual induction cups included allow you to customize your sessions. I preferred the white cup for wax and black for herb, but both worked nicely. Airflow can be adjusted with the carb cap to control vapor density. Overall vapor quality is top notch!

Design

The Switch has a nice portable form factor despite being a corded, AC powered unit. It's about the size of a tall water bottle so fits easily in your hand or on a tabletop. The all black styling looks sleek and stealthy.

It has a bright OLED screen to display temp setting and battery level. The +/- temp buttons provide precise control from 200F to 750F. The mouthpiece is glass and can rotate 360 degrees. Overall it feels very well made and designed.

Ease of Use

Operation is super simple - just load your material in the induction cup, put the cup in the heating chamber, select your temp, and inhale! I love being able to take back-to-back hits without any warm up time.

Maintenance is also easy. The induction cups pop in and out for cleaning. You just need to swab them out occasionally, no iso soaks required. The glass mouthpiece can be cleaned with iso. Not much user effort needed to keep this thing running smoothly.

Battery Life

Battery life is decent but not amazing. I was getting around 30-40 hits per charge. The Switch uses a removable 18650 battery so you can always swap in a fresh spare. Charging is quick - around 1.5 hours to full.

I'd recommend getting 1 or 2 extra 18650 batteries so you can hot swap them and vape all day long. But battery life is a minor gripe overall.

Final Thoughts

So is the Dr.Dabber Switch worth the $400 price tag? I'd say absolutely, if you're looking for a premium home dab rig and don't mind the high cost. It performs incredibly well and looks great on a table. Vapor production and flavor are truly top tier.

The fast heat up, adjustable temp control, and easy loading all make this an awesome user experience. While not as portable as a pen, the Switch still offers cordless convenience for big rips at home. This is easily one of the best dab rigs I've tried.

Let me know if you have any other questions! I'd be happy to share more details from my testing.
