The Mini Badger® Portable Device is a solid addition to the lineup, offering an affordable and portable way to enjoy concentrates. However, it falls short compared to the original Huni Badger model, earning a 3.5 out of 5.
Mini vs. Standard
If you’re into concentrates but want a compact, travel-friendly option, the Mini Badger can do the job—but don’t expect it to match the performance of its bigger sibling. It takes noticeably longer to heat up, doesn’t reach the same temperatures, and the hits aren’t as satisfying. Still, it’s far more convenient and user-friendly than dealing with a torch and glass rig.
I went with the black model (it comes in several colors), and unfortunately, it doesn’t look great. The design feels like a cheaper version of the original, lacking the same sleekness and premium feel. However, it’s durable and compact enough to throw in a bag without worrying about fragile glass.
How Much Is It?
At around $40, the Mini Badger is budget-friendly but comes with trade-offs in performance. For new users or those looking for a travel option, it’s a decent choice. But for the best experience, the classic Huni Badger remains the standout with faster heat-up times, higher temperatures, and better hits.
Final Thoughts
Maintenance is simple, and while seasoned users may find the Mini lacking, it’s an excellent secondary device for convenience. If you can stretch your budget, the original Huni Badger is worth the investment for its reliable and satisfying performance. For our review of the original Huni Badger® Portable Device, click here.
