-
What is included with the Calix® 2.0 Black Core System?
The Calix® 2.0 body with its Tritan plastic vessel in matte black, the precision-machined stainless steel core and ports, and the 2.0 dome with integrated chamber housing. It is sold as hookah only. Bowl, heat management device and hose are sold separately.
-
What makes the Calix® 2.0 different from previous generations?
The 2.0 replaces the earlier anodized aluminum internals with precision-machined high-grade stainless steel. The vessel is shatterproof, high-resilience Tritan plastic. The redesigned dome integrates the chamber housing, so bowl changes are faster and cleaning takes fewer steps. It also works with the Upward Purge System and the Aeras Duo Ashtray.

Yes. The 2.0 dome and chamber system fit all Generation 1.0 Calix bodies, so you can upgrade without replacing your existing setup.

Wash with warm water and mild dish soap. Avoid abrasive chemicals and boiling water to protect the finish. Dry all parts fully after each session.
