Pax by Ploom Made a Big Boom in The Vaporizer Market
The Pax by Ploom is a revolutionary new vape that offers all the features of a 21st century portable vaporizer. It is manufactured by a San Francisco based company called Ploom. The Pax comes with three different heating settings. My search for the ultimate vaporizer led me to a Pax review that referred to the Pax as the Bentley of vaporizers, and after purchasing it, I could not agree more. The sleek design of this portable vaporizer makes it one of the most, if not the most, stylish vape in the market.
After purchasing the Pax vaporizer by Ploom for a staggering 249 dollars, I was ready to enjoy its many unrivaled benefits. After using the pen, I’d give it an 8/10 rating as despite its awesome features it has some few not so appealing drawbacks.
How It Works
The Pax vaporizer is an easy to use pen, it features a retractable mouthpiece that doubles up as an on and off switch. A simple click on the mouthpiece is all it takes to switch it on. Once the mouthpiece has been turned on, the indicator light turns green to indicate that the vape is ready for use. Before enjoying the delights of your favorite herbs, the mouthpiece has to be set to your desired temperature settings.
Heat Settings
The heat settings can be changed using a button located under the mouthpiece. The pen has three different heat settings for users to choose from, low, medium and high. To consistency in the burning of the herbs, the pen features three different indicator colors that represent the three heat settings. Yellow represents low, Orange medium, and Red represents high. The indicator light allows users to known, which heat setting they are on. Additionally, the heat setting helps in getting the desired bake. The default heat setting of the Pax vaporizer is usually set at medium.
Battery Life
The battery is one of the most important components of any portable vaporizer. The Pax vaporizer by Ploom comes with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. This battery has the potential of heating up within a minute. In terms of power, the battery can last up to 2 hours of continuous use, which is pretty impressive for a portable vape. For the battery to do this it has to be charged for approximately 1.5 hours. The 1 AC wall charger that comes with every Pax vaporizer makes charging the vape easy and convenient for frequent users like myself.
