Intro to G Pen Nova
The G Pen Nova is the first venture into dab pen design from vape icons Grenco Science. Renowned for their incredible devices that offer some of the best dry herb experiences in their price range. With the Nova, they have transferred all of their expertise in botanical vaping into the world of concentrates. The results are amazing. Offering great vapor quality, incredible heating systems, and a stylish design, the Nova is a true Grenco vape.
It is a slim, dab pen that is perfect for everyday use or for sharing at parties. Its 510 threaded battery is compatible with most 510-threaded tanks and cartridges, making it one of the most adaptable vaporizers that Grenco has ever released.
How To Use G Pen Nova?
How To Operate G Pen Nova
Grenco has been doing their homework when it comes to dab pen design, as the Nova is incredibly easy to load and operate. The first step you need to do is remove the mouthpiece by gently pulling it away from the rest of the vaporizer. At the base of the device, you'll find the ceramic loading tool. With the mouthpiece removed, you'll be able to access the atomizer and chamber, using the tool you can gradually load in your concentrate.
Be sure not to overload the vape as this can ruin your vape experience. Replace the mouthpiece and activate the device by tapping the button five times in a row. Then, you can select your heat setting by tapping the power button three times in rapid succession or double-tapping it to activate the preheat mode.
How To Get Best Vapor Quality
Learning how to effectively use the preheat mode is the best way to get great results from the Nova. The preheat mode primes your material by gradually building up the heat in the chamber before engaging a full heat cycle. This ensures that all of your material is evenly heated to lead to thicker and more consistent results.
How To Clean/Maintain It
The Nova g pen takes a little more effort to maintain than some other devices due to the nature of the materials it vaporizes. The compact chamber will clog with build-up after a couple of uses, however, its small size is incredibly quick to clean. Using a small q-tip wet with a tiny amount of isopropyl alcohol, gently and gradually wipe out all the build-up. The ceramic tool in the base of the device can be steeped in alcohol every so often. When you have finished cleaning the device, put it back together and then put it through a test heat cycle to evaporate away any residual alcohol.
Quality
The Nova's vapor quality is strikingly good despite its short size, this is G Pen's vaporizer expertise at work. While most dab pens have a pretty limited vapor quality with unimpressive clouds, the Nova pen creates some impressive hits. Although the atomizer is very close to the mouthpiece, users will find that their hits are acceptably smooth. This is mainly down to the ceramic construction of the atomizer which gradually and evenly heats the entire surface area of your wax concentrates. The non-reactive nature of ceramic also means that you can enjoy the full and authentic depth of flavor of your concentrate.
Temperature settings
The Nova's temperature settings are defined by its variable voltage. Each of these puts a different charge through the atomizer, leading to different heat intensities.
These settings include 3.2v, 3.5v, and 3.9v. Each of these offers a different level of vapor quality and hit intensity to cycle through the different settings, simply triple-tap the power button.
Battery & Power
The Nova comes with a 300mAh battery. This is ideal for casual users, this offers a relatively limited battery life. So if you're going on any long trips or you're hoping to share with friends, you may find that the Nova isn't the ideal choice. However, for personal use, everyday carry, or occasional use this battery is ideal. When it runs down, the Nova can be fully charged in around an hour.
510 Threading
The Nova is a concentrate vaporizer, however, thanks to its 510 threading it can be used with prefilled 510 cartridges. These can be filled with oil or even e-liquid, allowing users to enjoy a huge range of vape experiences. Finally, the tank can also be used with small amounts of dry herb.
Who is the G Pen Nova for?
The G Pen Nova is a great vaporizer for beginners or super-casual users. It allows them to enjoy a vapor quality above and beyond that of typical dab pens. Its general build quality, thanks to that Grenco lineage, is fantastic. This means that users can expect to enjoy this vape for a very long time. Finally, its sleek design makes it ideal for anyone who likes their vapes to be on the stylish side.
Who is the G Pen Nova not for?
If you're a frequent concentrate user, or if you want something that truly brings your dry herb experience to the next level, then you'll be disappointed by the overall lack of power that the Nova delivers. On top of this, you may find that the battery is very limited if you enjoy hitting your device multiple times in an evening.
Compare with other products
The G Pen Nova is a fairly good beginner or casual user vape. However if you want something that you can hold onto as your delve further into the concentrate scene, then the Magneto Concentrate Vape is a must.
This powerful wax pen has a plethora of quality-of-life additions that few other devices have. These include a small storage compartment and a built-in concentrate tool. This helps users cut down on the number of different tools they need in their vape kit. The Magneto's name is due to the magnetic locking mechanism that holds it together. Each segment of the vape is connected to the next securely with a strong magnet. This allows users to quickly snap into place with no leak risks.
For heating, it uses a ceramic coil atomizer that has a multi-layer design. The first layer melts your concentrate while the second vaporizes it. This leads to incredibly consistent hits.

Staff review
The G Pen Nova is a pretty slick little device. I was struck by how stylish and high quality its build was. This isn't a huge surprise, I've been a fan of Grenco vaporizers for a long time, with the Ghost being my herb vape of choice.
Loading the Nova is a breeze thanks to its easy access chamber and built-in loading tool. I was mindful not to put too much into the chamber, having been told that it can easily get swamped and push concentrate into the mouthpiece.
I used the pre-heat setting to gradually bring my material up to vaping temperature. I find that this results in better hits as I don't have to wait until the second or third pull to enjoy some truly good vapor.
The only real problem I have with the Nova is the quality of its battery. I'm a frequent user, and I found that I had to charge it up a little more frequently than I'd like.
