Why Choose A Mini Hookah

By John McCree


Have you heard about the a mini hookah? Want to know what a mini hookah is? Now, before we assume that mini hookahs were invented just because of creative boredom, consider that the traditional hookah has some distinct disadvantages, which the mini hookah addresses very nicely.

Have you ever decided to take your hookah along with you on a vacation, business trip, or even over to a friends' home? If so, I'll bet you promptly realized that the pieces are complicated, awkward, and even fragile.

Not so with a mini hookah.

The mini typically comes with a carrying case, allowing for simple packaging, safety, storage, and traveling. While not in use, this same case works well for keeping the hookah clean.

What are the benefits of mini hookah?

1. Effortless to transport

2. Requires less space.

3. Very economical

What's the Actual Difference?

The most obvious difference between mini hookahs compared to more traditional hookahs of course is the size. Having said that, mini hookah isn't a proportionally small version of a hookah.

First of all, the main difference is the length of the body, or stem. A standard hookah has a stem that accounts for nearly 75% of the height of hookah, but in a mini hookah the stem is less than 50% of the total height of the hookah. The size of the hose and the size of the water jar are small.

Nonetheless, there are some aspects that are same between a common hookah and a mini hookah. For example, the size of the bowl is equivalent to the average hookah. Moreover, the length of the smoking session is same and equal amount of tobacco is used in both. Other things that aren't different are the diameter of the hose and the diameter of the stem. If one of these diameters is reduced it would obstruct the airflow and spoil the smoking session. So you can say that mini hookah is a more compact traditional hookah, however, many parts of the hookah are kept consistent with its counterpart for the reasons of performance.

The Travel Case

As mentioned, a distinct benefit of the mini hookah is the option to carry it in the case for travel and safety purposes. Carrying cases are available in a variety of sizes and styles. For greatest protection, hard cases are available, which look just like small trunks. Compartments are made in the carry case. Every compartment is used to securely store one component. The most fragile components of a hookah are the bowl (made of clay) and water jar (made from glass), and due to its nature, the hard case gives great protection in the event the case is knocked or dropped.

In addition, soft cases can also be found. Just like hard cases, they often have several compartments to organize and store the hookah and accessories. Although they lack some of the protection that hard cases offer, they are generally lined with some level of padding for protection, and they're secured by a zipper.

As the main purpose of a mini hookah is to offer convenient transportation, carrying cases can be purchased with mini hookahs.

Getting A Mini Hookah

If you're interested in physically searching for your very own mini hookah, the best choice is to find a hookah shop close to you. If you like shopping online, a quick Google search can help point you to a number of great hookah resources.
