Help with the pax

Discussion in 'Vaporizers' started by goodvibess, Dec 17, 2013.

  1. yo so i recently (2 days ago) bought a pax and I'm havin a tough time with the learning curve.
     
    Ive had the mflb for a year now so i understand the logistics of vaping and letting vape build in the chamber. but man I'm havin a tough time with this one. Ive tried the cigar method, long slow draw, puff puff draw, etc. The cigar method was alright but either way i feel like everyone is enjoying their pax way more than i am right now. Cause at the moment i feel like i shouldn't have bought it. but i realize its most likely something I'm doing wrong. So far all this thing has really done is given me a buzz. First time i used my mflb i got baked.
     
    To the point: i was just hoping some other pax owners could give me some tips/ personal tips.
     
    Thanks, good vibes

     
  2. Did you buy it from an authorized dealer? If so you can just ship it back it's got 10 year warranty but if you just have a high tolerance then id say pack some fat bowls (grinded up nug) and put it on high that's what I do whenever I'm trying to get super baked and 1-2 pax solo usually does it ... Definitely keep it clean that's the biggest thig with the pax and don't inhale super hard to where the heat symbol turns purple ... Try and inhale slower cigar like and put your finger over the mouthpiece when you're not using it... Other then that just like push down / mix up the weed like halfway through a pack or whenever you get less vapor that's all I can really think of ... Definitely take out the mouthpiece and turn it on high (red) that's probably your problem .. Even medium is good your most likely on low
     
  3. yeah I've tried it on all of em, mainly medium. to be completely honest i just think its cause i have a high tolerance especially to vapes, and if thats the case that sucks ass. but yeah its a legit pax. but thanks for the input brudda
     
  4. Gotchu, try burnin a couple full oven packs and if you're not high something's wrong haha make sure that shits clean too cause that's what causes most problems... The 10 year warranty is dope tho
     
  5. word man i hear you, i don't think I've even had it long enough to worry about cleaning it. I just hope i learn how to hit it soon cause imma be super bummed if i don't . and yeah it is

    I did have a low tolerance but recently i used my friends pax, packed up 2 .3-.4 bowls, let it heat up and vaped away.  Worked great and i got super faded, make sure it's clean is all i can say, but from my experience it works great.

    make sure ur bud is extremely finely ground. i mean like powder and pack it TIGHT. if u think u packed it tight enough, pack it even harder...im not kidding here. also dont skimp on bud, it needs a full chamber to work good. i grind all my bud finely, pack it tightly and begin on low. i stir the bowl and pack it back down tightly every 10-15 hits or so (not needed, but helps it last longer and vapes better). after a bit, i stir, repack and bump it up to medium. do my medium session, then stir, pack down tight, and put it on high for a good 3-4 hits then im done. by the end im STONED and i have a extremely high tolerence.
     
    also, remember to pull slow and long. if ur mouthpiece is getting warm/hot, ur pulling too fast!
     
  8. ight thanks for the input man. appreciate it

    Man I got a couple of friends with paxs they love them and I don't really like vape pens cuz I don't like the hit you get and with the pax you definitely get an annoying drag .. so all I can say is what you have already very slow long pulls and you should get a decent hit .. Also they've had theirs for months and never even think to switch it below high one of them had theirs on medium for a while and then found out it hits a lot better at high and never went back hope this helps though I personally have a plenty home unit that gives you massive rips like to the point where you can hit it to hard and have an absolute coughing fit it is around $300 but 3 year warranty and worth every penny trust me

    damn yo see thats what I've been hearin. i gotta figure this shit out idk why its not working for me. i paid 220 and it came with a 10yr warranty doe
     
  11. Dude.. The paaaaaaaaaaaaaxxxxxxx. Whenever I pass one of my buddies in the hallways I just say "The paaaaaaaxxxxxxx" to them haha dude I love it. I bring it to school every day ahah. Here's some advice though... Make sure to clean it thoroughly every few days to a week(depends on how much you use it, I clean it every 2-3 days haha), it really does affect the performance. Grind your bud up real fine too, I put my stuff through my grinder at least 3 times. What I do is I just dump the end of my pax into a baggy of pre-ground bud & I fill it up for the most part, then I start packing it with a pen cap(lol). Sometimes I need to remove some because there's just too much in there. :p Uhhh... And make sure to stir the trench completely every 10+ full draws(make sure to get the stuff off of the sides/bottoms & stir it all around) & then you just repack it & continue.
     
    Hmu if you need any help haha. The paaaaaaaaxxxxxxxx :)

    haha word, nice man. but i know how to pack it and maintain it but i feel like i haven't been hittin it right or somethin. I've run like 2 grams through it and not very impressed. took some of the same strain, put it in my mflb and got ripped. ha help me out brothaaaaa haha i wanna love it
     
  13. I take long and steady draws, probably a little bit harder than you would on your mflb. It has to be continuous(this doesn't have a chamber for the vapor to build up in, so you just constantly suck it). Uh, I was gonna say something else but I just got absolutely fucked off of my pax. Sorry haahaaaa
     
  14. hahaha fuckkkk dude. but ight ill keep that in mind thanks homie. if you think of that last thing lemme know haha

  16. word i think i got it tonight. expectations have been met.  :hippie:

  18. yes, yes indeed
     
  19. first, make sure you charge it like this and you'll eliminate the "sticky mouthpiece" and "cleaning constantly" issues i so often hear about 1392666577628.jpg
