About this vaporizer

The first PAX by Ploom (2012): conduction oven for about 0.35 g, three presets at 188, 199 and 210 °C, heats up from 30 seconds, motion sensor with standby, charging dock and a ten-year warranty. Long replaced by PAX 2 and PAX 3; the comparison lists remaining stock.

Key Facts — PAX 1 Portable · Heating: Conduction · Heat-up: 30s · Weight: 98g

The PAX 1 was released in 2012 under the company name Ploom and popularised the pocket-sized dry herb vaporizer: an anodised aluminium tube with the oven at one end and a retractable mouthpiece at the other. Three settings at 188, 199 and 210 °C, a motion sensor for standby mode, a charging dock and a ten-year warranty were all part of the concept. The oven holds around 0.35 grams, and the device weighs 97.5 grams. PAX Labs replaced the model with the PAX 2 in 2015; what appears in comparisons today is remaining stock.

Mouthpiece as Switch

The PAX 1 has no visible button. The mouthpiece is spring-loaded and retractable; pressing it switches the device on and off. The temperature is changed by removing the mouthpiece and pressing the small button underneath; the star-shaped LED indicates the setting in colours. This very mouthpiece was the well-known weak point: resin accumulates in the shaft, the mouthpiece sticks, and Ploom included a lubricant as a remedy, which reviewers viewed critically. Regular cleaning of the airpath was a necessity with the PAX 1, not an optional extra.
