4mm Terp Pearls - Diamond Color (2 Pearls)

4mm Terp Pearls

Terp Pearls, sometimes referred to as dab pearls, are tiny spheres that are usually made of quartz, glass, sapphire, or other heat-retentive materials. They're placed in a banger or nail while dabbing to promote even heating and vaporization of the concentrate. The size of these pearls can influence their functionality. Let's dive into the differences between using smaller (like 4mm) versus larger (like 6mm) Terp Pearls:

1. Heat Retention: 
   - 4mm Terp Pearls: Being smaller, these pearls heat up quicker but might not retain that heat for as long as their larger counterparts. This means they might not stay hot enough for the entire duration of longer dabs.
   - 6mm Terp Pearls: Their larger size means they might take a tad longer to heat up, but once they're hot, they typically maintain that heat for a more extended period.

2. Surface Area and Coverage:
   - 4mm Terp Pearls: Their smaller size allows for multiple pearls to be used in one banger, which increases the surface area in contact with the concentrate. This can be beneficial for even distribution of heat.
   - 6mm Terp Pearls: A single 6mm pearl will occupy more space in the banger and might not move around as freely as smaller pearls. This means it might not distribute the heat as evenly unless adequately agitated with airflow.

3. Mobility and Airflow:
   - 4mm Terp Pearls: Due to their smaller size, these pearls tend to spin more rapidly and move more freely inside the banger when influenced by the airflow from a carb cap.
   - 6mm Terp Pearls: Being slightly heavier and larger, they might not spin as quickly or move as freely, potentially requiring stronger airflow from a carb cap to get them spinning.

4. Concentrate Quantity: 
   - 4mm Terp Pearls: Ideal for smaller dab sizes as they help ensure even heat without overwhelming the concentrate.
   - 6mm Terp Pearls: Might be more suitable for larger dabs, as their heat retention can handle more concentrate.

5. Cleaning:
   - 4mm Terp Pearls: Smaller pearls might be slightly more challenging to clean individually because of their size but might not accumulate as much residue due to their more active movement.
   - 6mm Terp Pearls: Easier to handle and clean individually, but given their larger size, they might accumulate more residue if they don't move as much during the dabbing process.

6. Compatibility with Electric Dab Rigs:
   - 4mm Terp Pearls: Smaller pearls are ideal for smaller buckets like those used for electric dab rigs.
   - 6mm Terp Pearls: Typically do not function as well with electric dab rigs, blocking the carb cap from sitting properly or not spinning easily. 

The choice between smaller and larger Terp Pearls largely depends on personal preference, the size of the dabs typically consumed, and the specific banger and carb cap setup. Some users prefer the quick heat-up and increased movement of smaller pearls, while others lean towards the sustained heat retention of larger pearls. Experimenting with both sizes can help determine which works best for your setup and dabbing habits.
