while I was stoned i had an epiphany: the pax should have a light in the oven somewhere, so you can actually see ur bud without a flashlight :cheers:

I bet you could do it, like somehow. the temp control mouthpiece button is just about in as hot of conditions as the oven, so why couldn't you have lights kind of in-place of the plastic lining of the oven (maybe with a small lip, which would face down towards the bud...

In the flashvape thread you can read about light rigging.

We're here to fuck shit up.
I don't think the temp button is in a location as hot as the oven. The Oven is the hottest part of the Pax. The temp button is also not in the vapor path. How would you seat a plastic or glass window that the light would be behind? How would you replace the light if it burns out? How much battery would it drain? There's a lot that goes into a major design change like that.

That would be because it isn't 30 seconds, it's 20 according to Ploom: http://www.ploom.com/support#how-does-the-motion-sensor-power-down-work

Party mode does not have a shut off, it will keep running until the battery dies.
Both of mine shut off with party mode on after about 20-25 minutes, I leave it running till it turns off everytime I clean it, I am 100% sure it is shutting off and not dying. They probably are honing their settings. I am leaving it on its side when I do this. Maybe this has a factor, not sure:shrug:

Yeah a light would be tricky because there aren't really any high temp leds, but you could have a light farther up near the center of the pax and have a clear high temp plastic or glass rod that pipes the light down to the side of the oven, like fiber optics :)

It's a neat idea but you can usually taste when the oven is done anyways...

How many users have had their Pax fail? I read about a few Inhalater XPs failing quickly but haven't read about any Pax's failing, have I just not seen the posts (haven't read even 10% of this thread) or is it more reliable?

Thanks

Im going to stat under vaping and saving the remains for eating :) (once I start vaping again...) Today I feel great, lungs and throat dont hurt at all for the first time in weeks!! I was getting a bit worried, losing sleep over it :( I was very sick, it got much worse than what I mentioned on here, I cant fucking wait to start blazing again! :rockon:

its 4:20 somewhere.....
I had my pax replaced once for an internal issue. Received a new one in a week, ploom service is top notch.

Hi All... Just wanted to check in and see whats going on in the world of Vaping since it has been a while since I have been on.. And the reason being that my Pax has taken over as my main and only vape the last 6 months or so.. In other words my search ended when I got my Pax.. So I dont even get on the forums much anymore.. I love this thing.. I use it 3 to 5 times a week and have had zero issues with it.. As you can see in my Sig I have several other great vapes but I feel bad now as I see them in my locked trunk from time to time and tell myself I need to use my Solo or use my T1 but I never do.. For me the main thing I like about my Pax is its small size.. I use it at home around others(While they are in another room and I am in my Man Cave) and never once has anyone found out.. I LOVE it.. I will check back in here at FC from time to time but I think it will take something freaking amazing to replace my Pax..

Peace out..

Oh and I take my ABV and soak it in ever-clear for about 6 months and create a truncate(or what ever its called.. Drops under the tongue). 4 months in so far so I will let you know how it works out but I am hoping it will be good.. I know 6 months is longer then most recopies call for but I am in no hurry.. :)

where to start,
cera; replaceable battery, medical grade materials, strong oil support, boil steraliziation or torch, heavy, more convection with added radiant convection as the device warms up, awesome team that is on the forums very involved, no electronics.

pax; ease of use, load and go, bigger oven, electronics, 10 year warranty, can use oil in it, requires cleaning (a clean pax is happy pax), very discrete, stealthy, quick charge, cant be used while charging. Anyone jump in just giving off of the head details.

hmm... the only real stumbling block I had with the Pax was I heard it uses more herb than it should... and then I found the ascent thread a while back and was waiting til the release date which was March 31, and now it seems to be pushed back to May ish. What else is a known problem for the Pax? I actually found this tube attachment on eBay for the pax that would aid the hot mouthpiece/getting stuck issue that people have been having which makes it look a bit more appealing. Anyone use this? I assume someone on FC made this lol.

Man I dont find this to be true.. My Herb seems to be lasting me forever.. And I only do one bowl during each session(One bowl 3 to 5 days a week)..

I dont think it uses anymore Herb then my T1 or Solo and not a whole lot more then I use to use in my MFLB..

I too had this concern at first but it went away once I started using my Pax..

For flowers, the Pax is the most efficient vape I have... On medium, the loaf always comes out much darker than the herb in the Extreme-Q (half a hurricane bowl at 230F).

Oil in the Pax? Maybe a little to add to flower, but I find it to be way messy in what I already consider a messy vape (clean, clean, clean!).

Might have to check in the Cera thread... it's out already?
