I'm interested in getting the pax ploom sometime next month and wanted to see if anyone could compare it to any other portable vaporizers they've used. I'm not interested in a comparison vs nonportable vaporizers, only portable ones. Please have used both vaporizers that you talk about. Thanks!
I own an MFLB, but I would rather ave saved up for the Pax. Don't get me wrong the MFLB is great, it's stealthy, gets me high, and is affordable compared to the Pax. The only reason why I would prefer the Pax over the MFLB is the simplicity of the device, everything is fit into it, whereas the MFLB you have to store the batteries, the stem, recharge the batteries after every damn trench. Also what I don't like about the manufacturer is that they over price EVERYTHING. Honestly, the PA will probably solve my battery issues, but not only does that make the device not portable, but it's freaking $60 plus shipping which is $12 makes it $72. I paid $85 for my MFLB and you're telling me I have to pay almost the amount of another MFLB just for a damn power adapter. So far I've spent $95 on the MFLB (shipping included), $19 on a quarter sized grinder(shipping included) I paid $9 for a 2ft whip but yet again it was around $18 with shipping, those were all accessories if I were to buy a PA it would cost around $72, so add all that up for a nearly perfect MFLB setup it'll run you around $185 give or take, but honestly if you want to save yourself from the hassle of going through all that just buy the Pax when the price drop to $200 happens. Tl;dr: The MFLB is good, but you need accessories for a good setup and the power adapter doesn't make the MFLB "portable" and when you want it to be portable you have to worry about the battery life, so if you want everything ready from start to finish the Pax is a better option imo.
I own a mflb, solo, inhalater and use the pax alot. Inhalater is my favorite portable though. Pax is good but I do not like the sometimes finiky mouthpiece mechanism and it gets very hot. Plus the inhalater tastes much better. Solo I use for big bong hits and that's about it. Don't touch the magic flight anymore.
I just love how much using my pax reminds me of smoking a j. It certainly can't touch my solo on taste, but it has an oddly satisfying vape. And its design makes it pretty damn convenient for sneaking away for five minutes and having a few hits.
