About The Core 2.1

The Shenzhen Crossing Core 2.1 is the updated version of the Core 2.0 and The Core 1.0 now features a non-rebuildable 3D atomizer as opposed to the rebuildable Atomizer on the Core 2.0. The difference in atomizers makes Core 2.1 a better quality option since the non-rebuildable atomizer negates the need to purchase tools to dismantle the atomizer itself. The Core 2.1 features one-button functionality and a fully heated ceramic vaping surface, not to mention the carefully tuned heat settings and aluminum/glass vapor pathway. Apart from those amazing features, the Core 2.1 comes with a 3150 mAh Li-Ion battery pack that takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes to fully charge. Shenzhen also created the Side mouthpiece glass bubbler for easier sessions.

Additional information about The Core 2.1

The Core 2.1 and 2.0 were created by listening to customer feedback on the original Core. The newest version features 4 temperature settings that are indicated by a color. If you set your desired heat setting to Blue, this will include a 12.5-second pre-heat and approximately 205°C (401°F), the Green at 13-second preheat time runs at approx. 220°C (428°F), the White at 17.5 seconds preheat time runs at approx. 240°C (464°F) and finally the Red at 22.5 second pre-heat time and runs at approx. 260°C (500°F). Starting the Core 2.1 while it's cold is an option but we recommend always pre-heating and using your wax once your device is hot.

You should get the Core 2.1 E-Rig if…

You are looking for a new and improved version of the Core 1.0 that runs on V5 heaters instead of wire based coils. Not to mention the decreased preheat time and increased session time. Overall the Core 2.1 is simply a higher quality device since Shenzhen Crossing took into consideration customer feedback from the previous versions.

Crossing Core 2.1 E-Rig features improved button function

One button functionality which makes it very simple to use. 2 Click will start session mode, 3 Clicks will change the desired mode, 4 clicks will give you a battery indicator and 5 clicks will either lock or unlock your device. You can also hold the button for manual fire, best used to get the most out of your wax by pressing and holding for an extra 3-5 seconds at the end of your session.

Non Rebuildable 3D Atomizer

The Core 2.1 as previously mentioned features a Non rebuildable 3D Atomizer which will provide a much higher overall quality. It also removes the need for the tools required to dismantle and put together the Atomizer. Shenzhen Crossing understood that most consumers look for relaxation when vaporizing and the extra hassle is simply not worth it.

    Compared to others, it's the best bang for your buck!

    It's a great value for the money. However, I think it would be an even better deal if it included the angled mouthpiece, instead of having to buy it later at 50$. The straight one that comes with it is awkward with my neck fusion. Other than that, it does work well

    This was my first foray into e-rigs (had been using a glass rig + torch) and for the price, this seemed like the most cost-effective way to get into e-rigs. I am not disappointed!

    I would recommend watching some videos to see how users setup, use, and clean this e-rig because you can really destroy the product and waste concentrate if you don't know what you're doing. Cleaning is kind of a pain in the ass and you'll want to do it after every use, but that's really my only complaint. That said, they all require some maintenance so it's not a deal breaker.

    Great rig instead of puffco
    I had a puffco for the last year and got tired of all the higher maintenance. The 2.1 is fire, I roll clouds and with I would have found this first. In my opinion it’s the best option for me. Love it, 5 outta 5

    I bought the core 2.1 and fully charged it like it suggest.
    It's a great peace of equipment but that battery could be better just in my experience

    Great Rig!
    I've had the Core 2.1 for about 90 days. It's easy to use, easy to clean and works great! The only thing I wish is that additional glass is difficult to find. I am looking for any additional glass versions other than the one on this site.

    Incredible flavor and silky smooth hits
    All of my wax tastes so much better in this, and it's so silky smooth and nothing burns. All I had before was a Unicorn and Seahorse both of which burned the heck out of everything even on low. This burns nothing even on high and it has amazingly smooth thick clouds.
