2g vs 1g Disposable Vapes
Disposable cannabis vape format varies by market. The 1 gram format is the California norm. The 2 gram format exists in some East Coast and select-state markets. Both formats are legitimate, but the choice usually reflects market regulation and distribution norms more than consumer preference.

FAQ
Quick answers.
What is the difference between 1g and 2g disposable vapes?
A 1g disposable holds 1 gram of cannabis oil. A 2g holds 2 grams. The 2g rides roughly twice as long but is illegal in California's adult-use market. California limits disposables to 1g per cassette.
Are 2g vapes legal in California?
No. California's adult-use cannabis regulations cap disposable vapes at 1 gram per device. 2g products sold in California are unlicensed or out-of-compliance. Always check the package for the state seal.
Why are Waxx Barz 1g?
Waxx Barz ship at 1g because California regulations cap adult-use disposables at 1 gram per cassette. The format ensures legal compliance and predictable dosing per device.
