    Discontinued Pax 2

    Had a second night with the P2. Shared it with a friend. Packed the oven and we easily got 10 hits each. Got heavily medicated. No burning throat; no burnt taste. Went from level 2-3. So I came up with an idea. Because the P2 is so easy to clean (if done right you can do it in 2 minutes); I'm...

    Discontinued Pax 2

    I just received the PAX 2 yesterday and had a couple of sessions on it last night. Here are my impressions. My background with vaping - I had the hotbox, then Arizer Solo. Never liked the hotbox and I found the Solo too cumbersome. The Solo stopped working last month; I sent it back and they are...

    Not sure whether anyone's brought this up but I'm trying something that might help the sticky button issues. When you're finished and want to put the Pax on the charger, inverse the units. Put the charger on top of the Pax and the secretions from the process will stay put & not enter into the...

    I've had the PAX since Aug 1st and here are my impressions. First, this is a fabulous device and works beautifully. I clean the PAX after 2-3 loads and have had a minor sticking problem but not significant. It disappears after a cleaning. Someone asked why they put a screen image on that piece...

    Based on what Azlum is saying, there must be tolerance differences with either that metal piece on the bottom of the chamber (the one that looks like it has holes in it but does not) or with the cover which is also designed to allow air through. As I had said in a previous post, the edges of...

    I start with full buds put them in the grinder and grind it slowly. I take out what falls through and use that. The stuff that falls through the screen to the very bottom of the third level - the crystals is too fine. There are various grinders on the market that will produce different...

    I have no restrictive draw whatsoever with the PAX. My Solo is much more restrictive. I truly believe that it's related to what's being put into the chamber. NO POWDER.

    If you are using very finely powdered material, it could be plugging up the spaces around the piece of metal at the bottom of the chamber. That would make it very difficult to suck in. Clean out the PAX, remove that bottom piece of metal to clean it completely, put it back and start fresh. Try...

    I found my PAX in out clicker was getting sticky and then I thoroughly cleaned it. Pay special attention to the mouthpiece and to the stainless steel stem which is part of the clicking mechanism. It gets very sticky. Use alcohol and soap and water to make sure it has no sticky residue...

    I've had the PAX since Aug 1st and never had trouble pulling on it. It's always been smooth. I fill it to the top and don't pack it down I just put on the cover. I use the medium heat setting and have pulled on it slowly as well as used the cigar smoking technique. I just cleaned it and...

    For new readers of this blog who want a summary of what to expect, this is my summary of the PAX describing how I've used it and my experience. Form and fit: It's very well engineered (it's missing an Apple logo). It's brushed metal; has a nice weight and a great feel. It's very very...

    Hey SliM. Good review - U didnt miss anything and I concur with all of your comments. I'm with u on that wimpy throat thing - I've been smoking and then vaping that way for a long time. One of the best features of the PAX is that I load up once and hit it a few times then power it off and do...

    SOLO is like that as well. As was discussed earlier on, you can smoke it by sucking on like a cigar and breathing in. I do that in combination with inhaling slowly; no need to rush it. I'm still interested in whether one has to fill the chamber or can we fill it let's say by 1/4 or half and will...

    Well thanks everyone for your input on my question. I will go with their recommendation just so that I will always have it on hand to take with me and not have to worry about its charge state. I'm not looking to keep any device for 5+ years. If I have it a couple of years, that's fine, then I'll...

    Do you actually keep it plugged in all the time? If the Ploom PAX people are monitoring this thread, it would be nice to know their recommendation.

    Do NOT use it with 240 volts. You'll fry the charger. If you had a voltage converter, then you'd be ok. Most electronic devices these days now come with built in circuitry that allows for either 110 or 240 volts which is pretty much the standard. This gives companies like Apple the ability to...

    Just got my PAX today and am looking forward to using it. It's now in it's dock at my office. I've been using a SOLO for the past couple of weeks and love it. My plan is to use the SOLO at home and use the PAX as my take-out. Regarding the comments on the this thread, this is what I've...
