Highly Educated
GTR Cap
$ 120
-Now comes with two glass spinning pearls-
The GTR Cap is a dual channel carb cap that combines the functionality of a Gordo riptide cap and a traditional straight bubble cap.
The two channels have been separated to create the dual functionality which can be operated independently or in coordination with one another. The cap features two openings, one on the handle and one on the bubble. When in use; a finger placed over the opening of the handle closes the center channel activating the riptide channel. A finger placed over the opening on the side of the bubble, will activate the center channel and make the cap perform like a traditional bubble cap. This puts more control in the operators finger tips and gives you the option to use a larger spread air stream that a rip tide cap offers, the more direct straight stream that a bubble cap offers, or both at the same time. Depending on whatever your puddle calls for at the moment you can now switch the function, without switching caps.
*Made to fit 25mm Gavel nails. This cap is not compatible nor recommended to be used with anything over, or under 25mm.
The dawn of an era
our debut
On July 10th, 2010 Highly Educated debuted as one of the first titanium brands and manufacturers of titanium concentrate accessories. Made in the USA, our products are made widely available for wholesale and retail purchase. Pictured here was our first nail offering. The Version One Castle Top nail. We soon followed with the first titanium dabbers and other titanium accessories the market hadn't yet seen before.
on The Path of innovation
full adjustability
In 2011, inconsistent dome heights was a problem. Some nails would stick out of the dome, some would be buried so deep in the dome you could not see the nail. The solution was a simple one and we were lucky to introduce the world to the concept of fully adjustable nails.

Removal of the torch
Introduction of the E-nail
In February of 2012, we unveiled to the world to the concept of the electronic nail, or E-nail for short. The concept of heating a domeless nail through the use of a hot runner coil and PID controller is a concept that many companies adapted and still use today. We also released the first fully adjustable and convertible domeless nail, the InfiniTi nail which was the first nail to introduce the concept of multiple joint compatibility and worked on all 14mm and 18mm male and female joints.

evolution of low temp
the carb cap
Remember carbing domes with your fingers? Highly Educated remembers. After discovering the quality of vapor that a low temp finger carb provided, we had to replicate the effect on a domeless nail. On July 22nd 2013, the first carb caps for domeless nails were produced. While this shape, design, and function was later adapted by many, it was originally designed and produced by Highly Educated.

Custom TItanium art
In 2014 we introduced the concept of custom anodization of titanium concentrate tools. Other notable 2014 contributions were the TriniTi domeless nail, The UniTi universal Carp Cap, and the M-Class Flux series.

Marriage of Material
Quartz titanium hybrids
With the rise of quartz popularity in 2015 we released our first proof of concept of hybrid nails with our V1 quartz dish. The machined V1 quartz dish was made to fit our titanium bodies and quickly evolved into our line of QX2 accessories.

Made the switch
Full quartz nails
In 2016 we produced our first all quartz concentrate nails. These nails were compatible with our titanium carb caps and, after our V1 hybrid nails, were one of the first places where we introduced opaque quartz as a new vaporization material.
quartz in session
Gavel debut
On July 10th 2017 we introduced our first quartz banger style nail, the Gavel. The success of the Gavel subsequently gave the opaque material a new found popularity in the market.

collaborative effort
GTR CAP
In 2018 we paired up with the folks at Gordo Scientific to release our adaptation of their popular Rip Tide bubble cap. Dubbed the "GTR Cap", the carb cap was the first to introduce the concept of dual air stream channels which can be controlled by the user. It combined a traditional bubble cap with the Rip Tide cap and allowed the user to switch between the two or use both at the same time.
