The Black Widow vaporizer is a portable conduction vaporizer with a powerful 2200 mAh battery and a maximum temperature of 220°C. Ready in 30 seconds, it appeals to budget users who prefer long sessions on a single charge.
The Black Widow is a compact 2-in-1 vaporizer for herbs and concentrates. At just 190 grams with five temperature levels (180-220 °C), it offers a straightforward entry into vaporizing. The ceramic chamber holds 0.3-0.4 g of material, the 2200 mAh battery lasts about 90 minutes, and the 30-second heat-up gets it ready fast.
Sold under various brand names (Kingtons, 420VAPE, DopeVapes), the Black Widow is a budget option that delivers solid basics despite its low price: magnetic stainless steel mouthpiece, one-button control, and an included concentrate capsule.

The Black Widow's ceramic chamber uses conduction heating: material is warmed directly by the hot chamber walls. Ceramic is flavor-neutral and distributes heat evenly. The chamber holds 0.3-0.4 g of material -- an average size for portable vaporizers.
For best results, grind material fine and pack the chamber loosely. Over-packing reduces airflow and vapor production. At lower temperatures (180-190 °C), terpenes dominate; at 210-220 °C, vapor volume increases significantly.
Research context: A study in the Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences (Hazekamp et al., 2006) showed that vaporisation at controlled temperatures releases over 95% of target compounds while largely avoiding combustion by-products. Source: PubMed 16637053
Five Temperature Levels: 180-220 °C
The Black Widow offers five temperature levels:
Level
Temperature
Best for
1
180 °C
Flavor, light vapor
2
190 °C
Terpenes, moderate vapor
3
200 °C
Balanced, good volume
4
210 °C
Stronger extraction
5
220 °C
Maximum extraction
Operation is simple: click 5 times to turn on/off, hold 3 seconds to cycle temperatures. Heat-up takes 30 seconds.
2-in-1: Herbs and Concentrates
The Black Widow includes a concentrate capsule that fits into the ceramic chamber. This lets it handle both dry herbs and waxes/concentrates. For concentrates, use the highest temperature (220 °C).
The capsule protects the ceramic chamber from sticky residue. After use, remove and clean it separately. Switching between herbs and concentrates takes just seconds.
Battery and Portability
The 2200 mAh battery delivers about 90 minutes of runtime -- enough for 10-15 short sessions. Charging takes about 2 hours via Micro-USB. At 190 g and 128 × 44 × 26 mm, the Black Widow is handy though not the smallest portable available.
The magnetic stainless steel mouthpiece holds securely and pops off easily for loading and cleaning. The housing is anodized aluminum.
Budget Entry: Who Is the Black Widow For?
The Black Widow is not a high-end device but a solid entry-level vaporizer. It suits first-time users who want to try dry herb vaporizing without spending much. The ceramic chamber delivers clean vapor, operation is simple, and the 2-in-1 function adds flexibility.
Those seeking precise temperature control, app integration, or water pipe compatibility will be better served by higher-priced devices. For casual, no-fuss use, the Black Widow is a fair option.
Ceramic Chamber Design
The Black Widow uses a fully ceramic heating chamber that surrounds the herb on all sides. Ceramic heats evenly and does not impart metallic flavors at any temperature, which keeps the taste clean throughout the session. The smooth walls also resist residue buildup, so a quick brush after each session is usually enough to keep the oven in good condition. For a deeper clean, a cotton swab with isopropyl alcohol removes any stubborn deposits in under a minute.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. A concentrate capsule is included. It fits into the chamber and protects the ceramic from sticky residue.
The 2200 mAh battery lasts about 90 minutes of average use, roughly 10-15 sessions. Charge time is about 2 hours via Micro-USB.
For flavor: level 1-2 (180-190 °C). For balance: level 3 (200 °C). For maximum vapor: level 4-5 (210-220 °C). Concentrates work best on level 5.
Brush out the chamber with the included cleaning brush. Remove the mouthpiece and soak in isopropyl alcohol. Clean the concentrate capsule separately.
Yes. One-button operation is simple, the ceramic chamber delivers clean vapor, and the price is beginner-friendly.
No. The Black Widow has no WPA connection and is not designed for water pipe use.
The Black Widow is sold under various names: 420VAPE, Kingtons, DopeVapes and others. The device is technically identical.
The ceramic chamber holds 0.3-0.4 g of finely ground material. Pack loosely for best airflow.
No. The battery is built in and not user-replaceable.
190 grams -- comparable to a light smartphone. Dimensions: 128 × 44 × 26 mm.
With conduction, material is heated through direct contact with a hot surface. With convection, hot air flows through the material. Convection is considered more efficient and flavorful.
For optimal performance, we recommend light cleaning after each session and thorough cleaning with isopropyl alcohol every 1-2 weeks.
170-185C for light vapor, 185-200C for balanced effects, 200-210C for maximum extraction. Start low and work your way up.
