PAX Plus: Dual-use with four experience modes
The PAX Plus is the upgrade for users who want more than just herbs. Dual-use means: herbs and concentrates in one device – switching between modes only requires replacing the lid. Four temperature levels cover the entire range, from low-aromatic to high-intensity. Four experience modes (Stealth, Efficiency, Flavor, Boost) cover the full range and are selected via the mouthpiece button.
Key fact: The PAX Plus supports both dry herb and concentrates with Bluetooth app control and four temperature presets. Starting from 98.08 € incl. shipping at 5 shops, it is PAX’s mid-range device bridging the gap between the budget Mini and the flagship Four (Vapochecker, 2026).
According to PAX, the battery lasts more than two hours per charge. The housing is identical to the Mini, only slightly heavier.
Disadvantages: More expensive than the Mini. More features than most users need.
