Ensō by AirVape - electric hookah without coal and smoke
Ensō is a portable electronic hookah developed by the AirVape team based on ten years of work in the field of thermal heating technology. The device was released in 2020 and is initially aimed at those who want to get a full hookah session without coal, without smoke from burning and without being tied to an electrical outlet.
The Ensō concept is simple: replace open flames and charcoal with controlled electric heating with precise temperature control. The body is made of zinc alloy, and the heating zone uses only porcelain and glass - no plastic where the hot air passes.

How electric heating works instead of coal
A classic hookah requires coal, which emits carbon monoxide and incomplete combustion products when burned. Ensō completely eliminates this process: the porcelain chamber is heated electrically and evenly heats the mixture in a set range from 180 to 330 °C - without an open flame, without the smell of burning coal and without the need to monitor its even distribution.
According to the manufacturer, Ensō's all-electric operation eliminates up to 95% of the toxic carbon monoxide and harmful substances associated with burning coal. This is a fundamental difference from the traditional approach and a major advantage for those who care about the cleanliness of the process.
A wide temperature range allows you to select the mode for a specific nicotine-free herbal mixture. The lower limit of 180 °C gives a light, soft vapor, the upper limit of 330 °C - a rich, dense result. The settings are completely in the hands of the user.
Autonomous work and mobility
A removable 5000mAh battery provides up to two hours of continuous use without a power outlet. Ensō is equally convenient at home, outdoors, and on the go - the device is not tied to a power outlet.
Charging takes 3.5 hours via USB-C. The removable battery design offers a practical advantage: you can have a spare unit and not interrupt your session while it charges. For those who need even more capacity, the Enso PLUS high-capacity battery is available separately.
A vegan leather strap is included as standard. For complete protection during transport, the Ensō branded backpack is available separately.
Magnetic mouthpiece and connection system
The Ensō mouthpiece is magnetically attached - no threads, no effort, no pulling or twisting. It can be removed just as easily. This eliminates the hassle of bulky hoses that hang down and get tangled during your session.
The mouthpiece is made of stainless steel. The set includes 5 silicone nozzles for individual use and a silicone protection. For those who are used to the traditional hose connection, a hose is also included in the set.
Original accessories for Ensō
A line of branded accessories is available for the device. They expand the possibilities of use and simplify regular maintenance:
- Bowl cleaning brush
- Immersion tube for acrylic flask
- Enso PLUS battery (high capacity)
- Acrylic bulb (alternative to glass)
- Ensō Backpack for Transportation
- Ceramic bowl - pack of 3
- Flower bowl - pack of 2
- Disposable bowls - pack of 20 or 50 pieces
- Hookah hose 150 cm long (diameter 0.8 cm or 1 cm)
Who is Ensō suitable for and what to consider before buying
Ensō is designed for users who want to have a hookah session without the hassle of coal: no lighting, no monitoring of even burning, no need to ventilate the room after each use. The device is suitable for both home use and for those who regularly take their hookah with them.
The 2.55kg weight is a real figure to consider. The Ensō is more compact than most stationary hookahs, but it is not an ultralight device. A removable battery, strap and backpack (optional) make transportation convenient, but full mobility depends on the specific usage scenario.
The device is intended exclusively for nicotine-free herbal mixtures. Before the first start, it is recommended to carefully read the user manual included in the kit and watch the manufacturer's videos - this will help you correctly adjust the temperature and avoid typical mistakes at the start.
You can purchase the Ensō electronic hookah with worldwide delivery in the CBDUA store at cbdua.org. The device comes complete with original accessories: bowls, hoses, batteries, backpack, and consumables.
