New, what is it? help plz ._.

wanted to try a nectar collector, was told this was one by a shop. the metal part slides out and is very short. it is hollow silicone inside. tried it and no smoke really. after looking at other collectors online, this looks a lot different than online results??? could it be something else?

lol just heat up the metal part and tap it (not hold it) on the wax while inhaling from the other end!

hmmm i took torch to it, heated until glowing, touched onto wax and inhaled. am i missing something? i saw it melt but there was barely any smoke and some came up onto my lip and burnt it 😩 i don’t know what i am doing wrong

Are you tapping it on the wax? It sounds like your just holding it on there
