High-Tech - 5 Tech Products Taking Cannabis to the Next Level

With recreational cannabis sales on track to start later this year in New York, people are going to be searching for products to help enhance their overall cannabis experience.

Some of these products have been designed to offer alternatives for cannabis consumption, while others are innovative accessories meant to improve the consumption process.

If you're looking for something to take your cannabis experience to the next level, here are five high-tech products that have been taking over the cannabis industry.

1. The Trident

Those looking for a smoking device with a minimalistic design need look no further.

At $499.99, the Trident by Hitoki sports a modern design with a sleek 24 carat gold, rose gold, or black finish, giving the user—quite literally—a taste of luxury.

For those who don't like inhaling the harsh cannabis smoke that can result from traditional methods, this product may just be what you're looking for thanks to its patent-pending laser combustion technology.

This device produces a clean smoke, allowing the user to enjoy the real taste of their bud.

1. OG OTTO

While mastering the art of rolling a joint may be quite the achievement, some people just want to get high easily on the go.

At $149.99, the OG OTTO does all the work to mill and fill, saving you the effort and time required to roll a joint by hand.

This two-in-one device was designed by the Banana Bros. to grind flower and pack a joint all at once. This tech automatically adjusts its direction, pressure, and speed by analyzing the bud as it goes, consistently giving you the perfect grind.

Instead of compressing and shredding your bud like any other grinder, the expandable chamber of the OTTO grinds one layer at a time, preserving the potency and quality of your cannabis.

Once the product is ground, the device fills up the cone of your choice mess-free.

This device also saves all the bud, kief, and oil that is usually lost to standard grinders, packing it all evenly into one joint to enhance your overall smoking experience.

1. Nova

Edibles are fun to make at home, but not everyone is patient enough to wait for their bud to properly decarboxylate.

For only $199, the Nova decarboxylator by Ardent makes this process effortless and removes all the hassle—so much so that you may walk away and forget all about it while it decarboxylates!

This device can decarboxylate up to one ounce of flower or five ounces of kief in just under two hours, turning off automatically once the process is complete.

If bud is left for too long to decarboxylate in the oven, its THC potency is lost and the quality slowly diminishes. The Nova avoids this problem entirely with its auto shut-off, allowing it to maintain that quality and potency.

While this device does save you the hassle of decarboxylating yourself, another major appeal is its straightforward design. You don't need to fiddle around with any temperature settings or scratch your head trying to figure out how to work this device.

It's as simple as placing your bud or kief inside of the Nova, closing the lid, hitting a button, and waiting for it to finish. Once the light turns green, your product is fully decarboxylated.

Unlike trying to decarboxylate manually at home, the Nova also doesn't produce any smell during the process, as its air-tight silicone lid effectively keeps in any unwanted odors.

Other than the initial few seconds after opening the device, your house will smell the same as it did two hours prior!

1. Cupsy

From the brand that introduced its own discreet water bottle bong, Budsy, Puffco recently released a new product designed in the shape of a coffee cup.

For only $59.99, Cupsy is a discreet high-performance water pipe designed not to raise any eyebrows.

This device features a ceramic bowl for your cannabis that can be tucked away when not in use, maintaining the ruse of an everyday coffee cup.

Cupsy is designed to be discreet yet portable for cannabis users who want to keep their smoking secret, especially in public.

Just throw some water into the cup, pack your bowl, and enjoy the experience while everyone else is none the wiser.

1. WaveWasher - Ultrasonic 420 Cleaning Machine

Cleaning your cannabis accessories can be tedious and difficult, and sometimes you may just not have the patience for it. However, if you don't clean your accessories properly, you may subject yourself to nasty diseases like pneumonia or strep.

With an ultrasonic cleaning machine like WaveWasher, though, you can clean your devices easily and efficiently without any special cleaning solutions or guesswork.

For just $250, the WaveWasher allows you to clean by just adding warm water and pressing the "ON" button. From there, you'll be able to wash your cannabis accessories like bongs with ultrasonic sound waves to blast away any bacteria or built-up resin in no time!
