:argh:

I think I had some microphone issues when I was filming. Sometimes the right audio will be dropped for a second. Very annoying. :doh:

Did someone call for an Unfrozen Caveman?

On another note, I just pulled the fucking trigger on my Onyx Pax. So stoked. :)

Can't wait for it to arrive.

Holy cow! It's being shipped today and I'll have it tomorrow!! Vape World freaking rocks. Used the discount code too.

Sounds like you need assistants and a plethora of external mics :lol: Looking forward to your review. Now that my Inhalater has arrived, I'm debating whether or not it's prudent to even consider a Pax. It has to be THAT much better for me to jump the gun, I think.

I have to second that opinion, Tim. Just canceled my Pax for the same reason.
Thats not to say I won't buy one . It will be good to see the reviews continue to
roll in.

You know an assistant would make things SOOOO much easier! Currently I can have up to 4 cameras and 3 external microphones. For this review I am using two cameras and one desktop microphone. I have to film it in two sections. The part with me talking, and the close up detail shots.

I am looking though the footage. I think there is some good footage. I am not sure what happened. I think the external microphone came a little loose. So I loose the right channel at times in certain clips. There are entire clips that have both the right and left audio. It just depends on what I can salvage. I know I got some good footage... here I will upload a little teaser.


Again 1080p goodness if you click through to YouTube.

That footage looks great... and the audio works. So I can use it. Some of the footage needs to be re-shot... other footage is like that above footage and usable.

Well, I decided not try to bring a vape to Paradise Island and therefore decided not to buy a Pax. I don't want to risk being chosen for a search. It actually happened to us coming back from Aruba last time and I was very glad I didn't bring anything back.

Anyway, now that I am seeing reviews, I may just have to buy one anyway! I brought my MFLB to work today and it was a pain to medicate. It just takes too long and I had to keep it in a Smellyproof bag. This looks like I could keep it in my pocket, take a walk, come back and be all set in little time :)

I went though all 86 clips I shot today. I actually think the majority of them turned out okay. I need to re-shoot some footage, but not as much as I anticipated. I am going to dinner. When I get back this evening I will re-shoot the messed up footage, and then shoot the close-up product footage.

Just finished my first bowl. (White Widow) Wow! This is the portable I've been looking for! Very small learning curve which is good for my old stoner brain. The features that stuck out, the size and the quality of the hits.

Can't wait to field test it at an Allman Brothers show later this week.

Time for another bowl.

How intense is the smell? Could I get away with smoking in my dorm room by a window?

Here is my out look on the PAX! I feel it still needs things fixed with it! 1 being the unit gets really hot even on med heat. 2 the mouth piece gets hot! 3 the oven lid get so hot you will burn your self. 4 If you push the mouth piece in to fast it wont catch and lock.

All and all I dont like it and I feel it is not worth the money spent so I will continue following D9 products like the New Universe that does oils and flowers or the HURC carts that are coming soon! and at least what im holding on to wont get so hot =D

This gets hot all around so yeah thats my out look and i feel there is no need for any videos on this product by me.

Thanks PS selling mine if anyone wants so PM me


Sounds like all minor issues that can actually be controlled by the users.. Like my T1... Read left and right where people were like it gets too hot.. Yes if you us it straight for 15 min without a break it gets hot as hell.. I assume the Pax will to..

The way I vape is hit it.. Put it down, enjoy the moment and take my time, then hit it again...


Think about it.. The smaller these portables get, the closer we are getting to where they are noting but the oven with a mouth piece on it.. Of course they will get hot.. All the portables I have ever used get hot.. The Solo does not get very hot(the body.. The glass Stem has burned my ass off) but that is because the body is so fat.. So its not really that portable..

The new small portables are the "Pocket Rockets" of Vaporizers...

This is not crack pipes we are using here people.. Take your time and enjoy... You can manage the heat very easily...

My mouthpiece and oven area got hot as well, but not hott enough to where I couldn't use it. It took some use to get it hott as well. It didn't bother my experience at all.Just my experience though.

This is how I feel about the Solo and which is why I won't consider the pax anymore. I am curious if the Inhalater is susceptable to this as well since it has a conduction component as well apparently.
Yeah, performance is similar to the Solo. I'm not saying that's bad, especially considering the form factor.

Edit: The button on mine works fine. I like it better than my MFLB. If you use a small amount, it works better if you shake it or tilt it upside down. With a full load it's foolproof.

Still this unit gets very hot on the lips hand everything pretty much and the fact the "oven" lid gets so hot it will burn you >>>>>> really for 250 bucks I would rather stay with the OMICRON line they are always improving their tech above and beyond and the customer service is awesome but really just want everyone knowing my final thought on the product and it just seems like another "HYPED" Product that everyone has been sucked into to buying and liking.... it happens even with me but anyways Im done happy vape-ing

the oven got hot.. derrp! :freak: chalk another vote up here for the "hot oven" not affecting the experience. this is to be expected in the small form factor IMO. its not a unit meant to sit cooking forever.

my only concern is still with the clicky button mechanism (not the temp selector). mine works fine, but i'm worried it will somehow take on debris. since the mouthpiece tube goes around the button mechanism there is an area in there you can't really clean (although not directly in the vapor path). as SliM stated, after waiting extended time the button action was affected. i'm concerned with long term reliability of this part.

overall this unit is a great design. when compared to something like the MFLB this is day vs night. pushing a battery into a piece of wood and using a glass stem is like playing your music on a [ugly] Walkman vs the Pax.. as everyone is saying; the iPod of portables.

this isn't the d9 thread, i don't see why you keep bringing up a product meant to be used for concentrates in a thread about a device that's used primarily with flowers?

you couldn't make it any more obvious that you're in some way affiliated with d9...
