I just smoked it for the first time and I'm super high. Can't believe how high I am off that little bit of grass. So all you guys talking about how great dry herb vaping is, I see you and I think I'm a changed man.

I think I used a pax 3 as first vape years ago. Off the top of my head IIRC: Pax has

  • proprietary charger not USBC

  • built in battery that you can't easily swap when it degrades

  • strange magnetically fixed herb chamber on the bottom that doesnt cook evenly

  • a wierd flashing led light indicator to tell you the state of your device and three preset heat options instead of proper temp controls with exact values and configurable heat zones

  • a mouthpiece that isnt 18mm/14mm/8mm glass insert compatable (I think?)

The pax is an ancient and overpriced vape that hasnt innovated in over a decade. Theres a whole new world of competion. Vapcaps, convection+conduction hybrids, injection ball vapes. When your pax gives out do yourself a favor and look at other options like the arizer solo 3.
