I'm new here...though I've been lurking for a bit. I purchased the No2 after researching the Solo and Pax. i happened to find a decent deal on a new No2 and figured i couldn't go wrong.
Prior to the No2, my only experience with vapes was the Volcano. SO I had fairly high expectations, but realistic given the new wave of portables...
With that said, I kept the No2 for a day and sent it back! As far as the air flow--it was too unrestricted for me. I generally smoke Js or one hitter and sometimes a blunt with friends (10 + years!!), and a well rolled J has a bit of resistance. Guess I'm used to that. The No2 was too much like just sucking air. I did enjoy the simplicity of it. I liked how well it conserved, but at the same time the quality of the vapes was lacking so I used significantly more trying to chase that proper level of medication...The heat up time was very impressive when plugged up--not so much unplugged, but not horrible. I didn't like the battery life or size of it either. I used it in a cup and it worked ok but still too big for my liking.
I was debating between the Solo ($140) or Pax ($250) as the seller will let me exchange for a different unit. Unfortuately, a good soul at FC pointed me toward the Inhalater Xp ($250). Now I'm really confused!! It looks awesome...the vids I've seen show great density in clouds. It supposedly ships jan. 16!!! Decisions, Decisions....
for long-time combusters looking to make the switch to vapes...I would avoid the No2. Just my opinion. It didn't totally suck...just didn't fit the bill, for me. I need discretion, portablility and good vape quality (I know, I'm demanding like that!) It just wasn't as satisfying as I felt it should be...perhaps too much air--less concentrated vape. Idk--I'm just a new-be continuing my search...
