Funny thing happened.
I enjoy my Pax, but have only used it about twice a week since I got it a long while back.
(well over 2 years ago!)
I have had my Pax for 24 hours now....
.....So far my experience with the Pax has left much to be desired.
...and will report back.
I loved using the Pax, but put it lower in my rotation, due to finicky operation of the mouthpiece (I had a spare also), and cleanup was needed quickly.
I still use my Pax.
I assumed everyone's was similar to mine.
I still need to keep the mouthpiece in a perfect position (even the spare mouthpiece), while it is warming up. Finger sort of pressing it down and to the side. This would keep it heating... and once "green" it would function perfectly. The light still goes "red" instead of warm-up lavender if I remove my finger from "initial heat-up position".
Now 2.5 years later, I have a couple great observations... one about my unit, and the other about Pax.
First off, congrats to the Pax team ... my battery is as strong as it was on day 1.
Second...
I recently did a demo using a new Pax before a small group of patients. Everyone got an up-close experience...hands on.
I was impressed. I thought my Pax was OK, just a bit "quirky".. but this Pax functioned better than I could have hoped. I used it, delightedly, as did 4 patients in the room.. 4 complete sessions, without a hitch.
Good sessions too.
On mid power.
I told the patient later that was the recipient of that unit, that hers functioned better than even mine did! (
I will write the story of that patient in the Paying it Forward thread)
I have a new admiration for the Pax unit.
