I bought the XMAX-Pro V 2 (Cigar Pen) when it was on sale at PIU and then put it threw a detail series of tests. See link at bottom.
Since writing up the review I bought another when they went on sale at PIU a second time. After several months I wouldn't change the review. I bought the second one for my wife as a daily driver so I could keep the first one as my Solo backup. My wife was tired/bored with the MFLB and doesn't want to use the Arizer Solo. My wife is pretty hard on electronics so I picked the Xmax-Pro-V2 in case she kills it. They are currently going for $79.
I'll summarize to save you time. If you like what you see you could read the detail review via the link at bottom:
- Batteries are changeable and I would suggest at least buying one extra since the battery life is about 30 minutes per charge. Each session cuts off automatically at 5 minutes.
- It's a large form factor for a pen vape. Closer to the Arizer Air in size than an e-cig. I've heard people call these 'cigar-pens'.
- I wouldn't choose the Xmax over my Arizer Solo and although I don't own an Arizer Air... what I've read tells me I wouldn't choose the Xmax over the Air either.
With the above in mind why am I suggesting you look into an Xmax-Pro-V2..... It's a cigar pen that works for herb, is decent for out and about events, it's inexpensive and would tide you over nicely till you can get a grasshopper.
