Nothing hits quite like taking a hit of your favorite cannabis dab, right?
But there’s art to the whole process. And it starts with choosing the right dab rig. That why, in this post, I’ll compare our Lobi dab vape pen with 2 of its strongest and worthiest competitors – Puffco Plus & Cookies x by G Pen. And we’ll see which one takes the cake when it comes to on-the-go cannabis dabbing!
Don’t worry, though – I’m not going easy on the Lobi just because it’s The Kind Pen fam member. I own and regularly use these 3 portable e-rigs, and I wouldn’t dream of being biased in my comparison. Okay, well… maybe slightly biased… but if you’ve read my OG Jams vs G Pen vs Pax Mini comparison post, you know that I don’t go easy on our devices.
As you’re about to read yourself. Let’s start with our Lobi dabbing vaporizer.
The Kind Pen Lobi, Puffco Plus or Cookies x G Pen – Which One Will Prevail?
Lobi Dab Vape by Yours Truly (9/10)
✅ The Hits:
Clouds that Kiss Your Taste Buds: Imagine taking a hit, and instead of harsh smoke, you’re met with billows of pure, flavorful vapor. That’s the magic of the Lobi’s quartz atomizer. One user described it perfectly: “beautiful clouds and taste.” It’s like a flavor explosion on your palate, unlocking the true essence of your concentrates.
Pocket Rocket of Power: Discreet enough to vanish into your palm, the device packs a surprising punch. Just a quick click and you’re met with smooth, potent vapor – perfect for a midday pick-me-up or a relaxing session on the go.
Simplicity as Bliss: No need to be a tech whiz to enjoy it. I personally love it not because it’s ours, but because it’s one of the easiest dab pens to use. Unlike Cookie and Puffco Plus, it’s all about ease of use with Lobi. Load your concentrate, click the button, and inhale pure satisfaction.
Built Like a Champ: The pen feels sturdy and secure in your hand. No flimsy parts here! Plus, the splash-proof design ensures worry-free sessions, even if you use less viscous extracts.

✖ The Misses:
- Size: The Lobi Pen is a bit on the larger size for a wax pen, which may not be ideal for those looking for a super portable option.
- Airflow: The mouthpiece opening can be a little small, causing the vapor to feel a bit thick or “milkshake-like” if the airflow valve is closed.
- Gets warmish: On higher temp settings, that is. It’s the nature of the beast when you go over 400F. It’s not uncomfortable or dangerous.
Puffco Plus (8/10)
✅ The Hits:
- Nice Smoothness: Unsurprisingly, ceramic chamber ensures clean, tasty vapor. Nothing harsh about it.
- Undercover Agent: Seriously, it looks like a high-end fountain pen. Great if you need to be discreet about your vape sessions.
- Lightning Fast: ‘Dart Mode’ is crazy for quick dabs. It heats up almost instantly, perfect for those “gotta snatch a quick hit” moments.
✖ The Misses:
- Small chamber size: The Puffco Plus has a ceramic chamber with a relatively small capacity. And it’s frustrating! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve found myself having to hit yet another dab while beating just mildly baked. If you’re a heavy user, the Plus definitely isn’t for you.
- Short battery life: This thing dies more than Agent Coulson in Marvel’s Agents of Shield. To put it plainly, the Plus has a shorter battery life than some other dab pens. It’s always on the charger in my house because I’m a frequent vaper. If you’re one, too, you’ll be charging it more than you’ll vape on it. Trust me.
- Learning Curve: While the Puffco Plus has a built-in dab tool and session mode, some users find it requires a bit more finesse to use compared to simpler pens. The small chamber and specific temperature settings require a bit more technique to get the perfect hit.
Cookies x G Pen Micro Plus (7/10)
✅ The Hits:
- Sleek and Discreet: I’ll say this for the Micro Plus – it’s small and compact, making it a real on-the-go device. . The Micro+ easily slips into a pocket or small bag, making it perfect for on-the-go use.
- Easy to Use: The Micro+ is intuitive and beginner-friendly. I love the simple interface and the haptic feedback that lets you know what’s happening without looking.
- Premium Feel: The Cookies branding adds a touch of style, and the pen’s overall construction feels durable and well-made.
✖ The Misses:
- Battery Life: While perfectly sufficient for my needs, heavy users might find themselves wishing for longer battery life. One review pointed out that “the battery can drain rather quickly with frequent use.”
- Can Get Hot: During extended sessions or on the highest temperature setting, the Micro+ can get a bit warm in the hand. Like the Lobi. it’s nothing too uncomfortable, but noticeable.
- Limited Customization: Compared to our Lobi, the Micro+ has less control over temperature settings.
Which Dab Pen Is a Logical Choice for You?
All three devices deliver, but my heart belongs to the Lobi. It’s got that amazing flavor, user-friendly options, and it’s budget-friendly! Of course, there’s something for everyone here. The Puffco Plus gets major points for discreet design and the ‘Dart Mode’. And the Cookies x G Pen is king if you’re new to dab pens and just want something super easy to use.
But… if you want peace of mind afforded to you by our lifetime warranty, go with the Lobi!

Got a Few More Questions About Dabbing? (FAQs)
What Is Dabbing, Anyway?
Dabbing is the process of heating up and vaporizing different cannabis extracts – usually high potency ones – in specialized rigs called dab rigs. Traditional dab rigs are similar to bongs – made of glass, but with ‘burner’ parts called bangers or nails that are super heated with a blowtorch. Dab vape pens, on the other hand, are electronic and don’t involve open flames so they’re much safer to use.
