Employee Products Recommend— GLIST Bar1 Designer Innovating Anti-Rolling Cannabis Disposable Vape Pen That Leads More Convenient User Experience
As part of my series “Product Recommendation by Cilicon??Employee”, it’s my pleasure to interview Han Chen.?
Han?Chen is?one?of?the?most creative and potential industrial product?designers at Cilicon? who majored in product?design and independently designed the anti-rolling GLIST Bar1, the first cannabis disposable vape pen with Cilicon’s latest Reoregin? ceramic heating technology.?GLIST Bar1 is also the first achievement Han has accomplished at Cilicon?,?which performs the lowest rolling and falling risk by her subtle and pioneered product outlook design.
To celebrate her first masterpiece, the following are some valuable conversations with Han I want to share with the public about her design inspiration and what she has gone through during her design.

What Made You Come Up with the Anti-Rolling Design?
Since we’ve already?had a significant breakthrough on the ceramic heating element, I want the first Reoregin? vaporizers to have an appearance upgrade to keep up with the powerful performance. Before designing GLIST Bar1, I searched a lot of cylindrical vaporizers in the current market and carefully analyzed their design styles for days. I found most of them have similar appearances which are hard to attract customers at the first sight, and many users also mistakenly lose or drop their cylindrical vape pens during daily use. Then questions came to mind: Are adults really into a completely cylindrical vaporizer? What if there’re some functional upgrades through product appearance design based on traditional cylindrical vape pens?
With these questions in my mind, one day I surprisingly noticed a crayon lying steadily on my office desk due to its polyhedral structure, then I?found?that the unique polyhedral body structure could overcome rolling and falling issues which just solved the problem that had been bothering people. After discussing with our R&D team about the feasibility of crayon appearance, we overcame difficulties in internal structure design and finally reach an agreement to introduce GLIST Bar1 to the public. Therefore, the crayon polyhedral design becomes my final design inspiration for GLIST Bar1 and is proven to be one of the most practical innovations for the appearance of cannabis vape pens.
Have You Ever Met Any Difficulties When You Design GLIST Bar1?
Yes, I encountered many inevitable problems during the design. From paring the appearance with its internal structure to the selection of color and material, everyone overcame?tough?situations, tried to do their best to make the product perfect, and do some upgrades for this vaporizer. The result we found is that the rubber finish can reinforce its anti-rolling functionality as the friction force is greater. And to achieve ingenious tactile feedback for the snap-in process, we tested so?many times to make sure workers could truly feel it when they processing them because the ultimate purpose of the convenient feedback design is to make the mouthpiece more precisely to be integrated with the battery manually, meantime greatly releasing assembly pressure and making the capping process simpler for cannabis oil manufacturers.
Does the Finished Product Meet Your Initial Expectation?
Yes, both the product performance and appearance are in line with my original goal and GLIST series?product style. Thanks to the newest ceramic?heating?technology, I felt a pretty natural and flavorful taste. The vapor has a aerosols denes texture, great flavor restoration ability,?and lower noise during drawing. GLIST Bar1 is a small and convenient product, which combines aesthetics and ergonomics to create a strong difference compared with other traditional cylindrical vaporizers in the market. It is available in many rich colors to keep in line with brand image and meet different customer expectations. Anyway, as a product designer, I like the taste GLIST Bar1 produced and the hand feeling from the rubber finish. I sincerely recommend it to all vapers who pursue the most natural taste and stylish product appearance.
