The Encore 8" Heavy Mini Bong packs 7mm-thick clear glass, triple ice pinches, and a saw-cut diffused downstem into a compact 8" piece, in your choice of beaker or straight tube, from just $34.95. It's a tough, no-nonsense daily driver, and it comes solo or in money-saving packs. Here's how the lineup breaks down.
Heavy 7mm glass, compact size
Both versions are built from 7mm-thick glass, nearly double a standard mini bong, so they feel solid and resist chips. Each has an 18mm female joint, a Saw Cut Diffy downstem for smooth diffusion, triple ice pinches for cooler hits, and a 14.4mm clear funnel bowl. The difference is the shape: the beaker spreads weight low for extra stability, while the straight tube gives a more direct pull on a 9mm flared foot base.
Beaker vs straight tube
- Beaker bottom (EC-W57-BKR), $34.95, more stable base, bigger water volume for a smoother pull.
- Straight tube (EC-W57-STR), $34.95, direct airflow and a punchier hit on a thick 9mm foot.
- Both come in assorted decal colors, note your preference at checkout.
