Product FAQs
A modular/custom bong is a piece you can interchange different bases, percolators, and mouthpieces to create endless design options. Want a small sesh in the morning, but a big bong at night? Well a customizable bong allows you to set it up based on however you are feeling with ease. Pretty cool right??
The Prism custom bong uses a a threaded system to tightly secure each piece together. Check out of assembly video for more info.
The Halos are made of an aluminum exterior, molded plastic threads on the inside, and 2 silicon gaskets to create an air tight and safe seal. Each end of the Halo has a thread with a gasket that twist around each piece of glass. You twist one piece of glass onto the Halo and then twist another piece of glass into the bottom of the Halo until both ends are tight.Check out of assembly video for more info.
Yes and no. If depends if you have the old clamp style setup verse the threaded Halo style. Each can only be interchangeable within their own system. However, once you purchase a certain system, you can intermix all of our glass types within that system.
It depends on your preferences, but we always recommend either the single stack tall mouthpiece with a beaker base OR the standard mouthpiece, with a percolator, and a beaker base. The second option is really 2 bongs in 1! Kind of a no brainer.
Prism has designed (4)3D Custom Bong Builders unlike anything in the industry. There is one for fully assembled bongs and ones for just bases, percolators, and mouthpieces. Each one allows you to pick your glass types, glass colors, and decals. While you do so it is building it right in front of you on the screen to help you visualize exactly what perfect piece is.
"Cleaning a bong is easy", said no one ever, until they owned a custom bong! So all you have to do is disassemble your piece and fill it with your preferred cleaning agent. Shake it up and let it sit, then rinse out. It’s that easy. No more hard to reach spots! We do suggest purchasing some cleaning caps. Check out ourcleaningpage for more info.
No it does not. The threads are unique to Prism, but we have tons of options for you to choose from always releasing new styles.
You can place your Prism glass in the dishwasher on the top shelf, but we have found this can fade your decals. We are not suggesting you put your glass in your dishwasher though, but if you do, the glass should be fine. However, please note, the Halos are NOT dishwasher safe and should not be placed in the dishwasher. See ourcleaningpage for more info.
All of our bong bases and mouthpieces are made of high end 7mm borosilicate glass. So it’s thick! All percolators and bent mouthpieces are made from 5mm borosilicate glass due to the detail work within the percolators. However, 5mm is still a solid thickness. Now that doesn’t mean the glass won’t break because it’s still glass but, at least it has a fighting chance.
Unfortunately, we’ve all been there when our stomach drops to the floor as our beloved bong breaks. Not a good day. Luckily, with a custom bong, it’s super easy and inexpensive to replace just the broken part instead of an entire new bong. Whewf!
However tall your heart desires! Just make sure you have a Beaker or Big Honeycomb Base to stabilize the base of the bong! And maybe someone holding it too if you’re building a really tall one haha!
The 14mm bowl works for our Beaker Base and Klein Incycler
The 18mm bowl works for our Percolated Beaker Base and both Honeycomb Bases.
