PAX 3 Portable Dry Herb & Concentrates Vaporizer Review

No other company has reshaped the vaping industry like Pax did when they introduced their legendary Pax vaporizer more than ten years ago. The Pax quickly rose to fame and gained many trusted followers due to its simplicity, great vaping performance, ruggedness, and overall excellent quality. Building upon the success of Pax 2, the Pax 3 is their latest portable vaporizer for herbs and concentrates. Find out what’s new with the Pax 3 in this review!

PAX 3 & RQS SPECIAL EDITION — WHAT'S NEW?

The first two Pax models had a lot to offer, but the Pax 3 is truly the full package. You'll notice the changes as soon as you take it out of the package, as it features a sleeker and smoother design. With rounded edges on its aluminum body, and no protruding buttons or switches, it can slip right into your pocket with ease. You won't even feel it there when you're walking!

"But, how can I control it if there aren't any buttons?". Well, you can still control all essential functions from its exterior, but now it comes with a companion app so you can customise every detail of your vape experience.

It doesn't just stop at the looks, either! Once you start it up, you'll notice it heats up even faster than the first two editions. Along with this, you can also heat up dabs by replacing the dry herb chamber with a special concentrate insert!

On top of all that, if you want to show off your love for Royal Queen Seeds, we're proud to offer an RQS Special Edition of the Pax 3! This fine vaporizer shows off striking artwork complete with the RQS name and logo, and is available in four new colors; that way, you can find the vape that fits your personality perfectly.

TOP PERFORMANCE

Looks are not everything, right. What about performance? This is one area where many portable vapes can be disappointing. Not so with the Pax 3. According to Pax, the vape will heat up in a very short 10–15 seconds. If you want to vape at maximum temperatures, it will heat in a still impressive. On the other hand, dialling your Pax 3 to the highest possible vaping temperature isn’t necessarily recommended. It can be best if you start out with lower temps at first and then gradually increase until you find the sweet spot. This way, you can capture more of the flavor of your herb, which may otherwise diminish at higher settings.

PAX 3—VARIOUS TEMPERATURE OPTIONS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS

The Pax 3 features four heat settings that you can quickly switch between:

• Temperature 1 182°C (360°F) 
• Temperature 2 193°C (380°F) 
• Temperature 3  204°C (400°F)
• Temperature 4  215°C (420°F)

Each temperature is indicated by the colored LEDs, which go from green to yellow to orange to red depending on your temperature settings. We found the heating time at about 16 seconds for the lower settings, and about 18 seconds for the highest. Once the unit has reached temperature, it will vibrate to let you know.

THE PAX APP ALLOWS YOU TO CUSTOMISE YOUR VAPE

With the Pax app on your phone, you can further customise your vaping session with individual temp selections and heating profiles. The heating profiles are standard, boost mode, efficiency mode, stealth mode, and flavor mode. Boost mode keeps the oven hotter for longer with less auto cooling. This is a good mode if you like intensive clouds or if you’re using the Pax 3 with a water pipe. The efficiency mode slowly ramps up the temperature as you’re vaping. Stealth mode is a nifty mode that cools quicker for quick hits if you're on-the-go. The flavor mode uses particularly gentle heating so you can get maximum flavor from your herbs.

PAX 3—FOR DRY HERB & CONCENTRATES

The Pax 3 is quite a flexible beast since you can use it not just for dry herb, but also for concentrates with the included concentrates insert. There are different kinds of lids for the chamber: a regular lid and a half-oven lid that you can use for vaping flowers. You can use the half lid if you have very small amounts of material you want to vape.

Pax 3’s performance for concentrates is decent, although we think that it does best when you vape flowers. On the other hand, having the option for concentrates in a portable vape is always nice.

SIZE OF THE BOWL: PERFECT FOR LONGER SESSIONS

The PAX 3 can hold as much as the PAX 2—with an oven capable of holding about 0 oz. This can get you as many as 15–25 draws from a fully packed oven, perfect for extended on-the-go sessions.

PAX 3: WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THE BOX

• Pax 3 Vaporizer
• Concentrate insert
• Battery
• Charging cable and dock
• Maintenance kit with multi-tool
• 2x oven lids
• Free app

Pax 3 comes with a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty.
