DaVinci IQC

The IQC has a removable 3000 mAh battery. Passthrough charging works — you can use the device while it charges.

The swappable battery extends on-the-go use: bring a charged spare and keep going without hunting for an outlet.

The IQC is a portable vaporizer. It weighs 150 g — a comfortable weight for daily use.

The IQC works with:

• dosing capsules (clean, quick loading)
• water pipe adapter (WPA, for cooler vapor)
• app control (Bluetooth)

Additional original accessories from DaVinci are available separately.

The IQC is a portable vaporizer by DaVinci with conduction heating. It suits beginners and users looking for a straightforward device as well as dosing capsule users. Our price comparison shows it from €124.22 at 33 shops.

The DaVinci IQC fits smoothly into a daily routine. Its zirconia vapor path keeps sessions clean-tasting, since zirconia does not retain odors or flavors between uses. After each session, brush out the chamber while it is still warm — loose material comes free easily at that point. The mouthpiece and pearl pull out for a quick isopropyl wipe. Full deep cleans are only needed every two to three weeks with regular use.

USB-C charging means one cable for your phone and your vaporizer. A full charge takes roughly 90 minutes and delivers about 60 to 80 minutes of session time depending on temperature. The IQC supports passthrough charging, so you can vape while plugged in — useful on a long evening at home.

DaVinci's lineup can be confusing from the outside. The IQC sits between the entry-level MIQRO-C and the premium IQ2. Compared to the IQ2, the IQC lacks adjustable airflow and Bluetooth, but it covers everything most users actually need: full temperature control from 120 °C to 221 °C, a Pearl chamber tool, and the same zirconia flavor path. The price difference is meaningful, and for non-app users the IQC is the smarter pick.

Compared to the MIQRO-C, the IQC offers a larger chamber (roughly 0.5 g capacity vs 0.3 g), longer battery life, and a more comfortable grip. Solo users who prefer shorter sessions might prefer the MIQRO-C, but for 30-minute sessions or sharing, the IQC is the right step up.

The IQC works with DaVinci's own dosing oven lids and glass mouthpieces. The flavor chamber Pearl can be swapped for the standard mouthpiece to fine-tune draw resistance. A 10 mm water pipe adapter is available separately, allowing the IQC to connect to any 10 mm female joint for cooler, smoother hits. Third-party carry cases designed for the IQC are widely available, keeping the device protected during travel.

The Mini has 300 mAh less battery and only 2 years of warranty instead of 10. Heating, heat-up time and app features are identical. If you do not need the extended warranty the Mini saves a good chunk of money.

Regular cleaning keeps the PAX Mini performing at its best and ensures pure flavor. Brush out the chamber after every session to remove loose residue. Clean the mouthpiece and vapor path weekly with isopropyl alcohol (90% or higher).

Cleaning Schedule

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Never use water inside the chamber — only isopropyl or dry cleaning
• Do not use sharp metal tools in the vapor path
• Replace screens when draw resistance increases

Choosing the right temperature on the PAX Mini determines flavor, vapor density, and active compound profile. Lower temperatures (170–185 °C) emphasize terpenes and deliver mild, aromatic vapor. Higher temperatures (195–210 °C) produce thicker clouds and stronger effects.

Temperature Zones

Practical Tips

• Start at 180 °C and increase in 5-degree steps
• Finer grind often needs 5–10 °C lower temperature
• In cold environments, raise starting temp by 5 °C

The PAX Mini battery lasts several sessions with typical use. For maximum lifespan, keep the battery between 20% and 80% and avoid deep discharge. USB-C charging with a quality power adapter speeds up charging.

Battery Tips

• Do not leave on the charger permanently — unplug after 100%
• For replaceable batteries: use original or recommended cells
• Battery performance drops in cold — let it warm up before sessions
• Pass-through charging (if supported) allows use while charging

Both PAX vaporizers with conduction heating and 215°C. The Plus has 10-year warranty, larger 3300mAh battery and more modes. The Mini costs ~15 EUR less with 2-year warranty and 3000mAh.
