which portable vaporizer?

The only downside is that the lotus won't work at such heights.

I don't think it's butane, even with a hemp wick I find it harsh at times.

No torch lighter will ignite over 10k ft?

No torch lighter will ignite over 10k ft?

Lack of testing? I think its the 14k factor, pretty sure the Hammer will light at 10k.

If the Hammer lights then any decent torch will, right?

I just noticed (on their new massdrop page) that Callibri lighters are only guaranteed to 7,000 feet.

I know the MFLB isn't really in consideration any more, but you can get acrylic or wood stems for it,
just sayin'.

Appreciate the help everyone. FYI...I ended up going with the pax for the long warranty, portability, and simplicity. Not sure how long the battery is going to last but I'm rather impressed with it so far and I think it will work well for day trips. I think I'll get a vape pen and/or a mflb for the longer trips.
... On the torch lighter discussion, I've had a lot of problems getting torch lighters to light or stay lit in the mountains...the oxygen levels are lower at higher altitudes and it throws off the fuel to air ratio. The wispr iolites say they are designed to work at up to 8k feet but if you search online you will find people having problems getting them to ignite at around 6k and up and I'm guessing it's the same with other products as you approach the altitude limits of the lighter.

Pen vapes are nice for oils, but if you are using flowers I would recommend anything else... pens are not the best with dry herb.
