The Core XL E-rig is the latest portable e-rig from SZ Crossing A.K.A. CrossingTech. It is an all in one dab rig designed for use with a full range of concentrates, from thin oils to solid shatter style material. With a solid build made from high quality materials, a fully heated large capacity cup, vortex airflow and everything you need to get started (except concentrates) it provides the best entry level e-rig experience. After a little practice it rivals much more expensive devices!
There are two heater styles available, both are functionally identical in terms of vaping.
- Core XL with Rebuildable Atomizer
- These use a rebuildable atomizer, so when the heater needs replacing you only need to replace the Ceramic Heater part, not the whole housing. This is a cheaper way to run the setup as heaters cost less than the whole atomizer
- Core XL with Non-Rebuildable Heater
- With these you can replace the whole atomizer, the heater is fixed inside. They have been made since some people have no desire to replace heaters in housings so this more convenient solution exists

Setup
- Always hold your e-rig upright! If you angle it during use concentrate will spill out the bucket! Now that's out the way...
- Charge your base using the provided wall plug and cable.
- Fill the bubbler from the top, when it is removed from the base. Ensure any excess liquid has been wiped away and that no water has flooded into the bottom compartment. If this happens turn the bubbler upside down and blow into the air hole at the bottom to clear this section. Then re-fill from the top.
- Do not fill the bubbler past 1/4 fill height or you risk flooding the base and damaging the unit. Just above the airflow slits inside is fine.
- When replacing the bubbler, place it on the base at an angle, ensuring that the hole in the bubbler base aligns with the vapor pathway, then gently and firmly push it straight down into place.
- For Rebuldable Atomizer check the small screws in the atomizer base which hold the heater legs are done up fully. These need to be tightened so they are firm, but not so much that they cut the wire legs off the heater.
- Select your desired heat setting (start low if you're not sure).
Vaping methods
Cold Starts - This method is best for getting the most flavour and material preservation as you start inhaling as soon as vapour is being produced. Vaping in this way will cause the session temperatures to be slightly lower than otherwise because the air passing around the heater will decrease heating speed. You can start your inhale at any point, we suggest keeping an eye on the button flashes so that you can always begin inhaling after a set number of flashes, if desired, providing a very consistent and repeatable experience.
- Load a rice grain size dab (basmati not long grain) into the heater
- Press the fire button twice to activate session mode
- When your concentrate starts to bubble begin inhaling gently with the carb cap left off
- When the Core 2.0 base vibrates place the carb cap back on and continue your inhale as you normally would
- For subsequent inhalations just inhale as desired, when the flavour leaves your material, the vapor becomes harsh or stops being produces press the fire button once more to cancel the session
- If you still have material left inside at the end of the session simple hit the fire button twice again and start vaping immediately, no need to wait for the vibrate as your heater will already be close to vaping temperature. The second session will always run a little hotter than the first if it is started straight after
- It's been advised by the manufacturer to avoid doing hot starts where the dab is loaded into a pre-heated heater as this can crack the ceramic due to the temperature difference
- Please note that if you take very short inhales or little puffs, the temperature at the heater will rise faster than intended. With this style of rig it's always best to take longer inhales as that's what it's been designed for.
Cleaning
- Wipe out heater with a q-tip after each use
- Clean the area around the atomizer weekly to stop residue building up
- Every month or so wipe out the airway with a q-tip soaked in ISO - allow to fully dry before use
- Replace bubbler water daily
- To clean bubbler fill with hot water and shake to remove large residues. Soak in ISO to fully clean. Rinse thoroughly with warm water after soaking.
- The Core Atomizer can also be removed and screwed into a heat sink on our Pico Plus with auto-fire or an Arctic Fox or DNA-C box mod (with auto-fire), then run at 36W upside down for 1-2 mins to perform a burn off cycle to clean the heater back to new. This is optional. You can also use the CUB instead of a heat sink with this setup, the CUB can also be used with the atomizers as a standalone portable when paired with a box mod such as the Pico Plus.
