The PAX 3 provides a sooner heating aspect, focus assist, and a Bluetooth app to an already glorious vape, and also you don’t have to be a vaporizer skilled to fireplace it up and have an important session. Nonetheless, our quickstart information will stroll you thru all of the steps to get you up and operating, and make it easier to interpret the PAX 3’s flower petal language.
PAX 3 Quickstart: What’s within the field
The Primary Equipment comes with the next:
The Full Equipment contains all the pieces above, plus these additional equipment:
Cost it first
Be sure to completely cost your PAX 3 vaporizer earlier than your first use. Plug the cradle right into a USB energy supply, then set the PAX 3 on high of it with the lights up. If it’s dealing with the precise route, the magnets direct it into place over the charging contacts. The variety of petals at the moment illuminated will present you the battery degree whereas it’s charging, and when it’s totally charged all 4 shall be lit up. It should take round three hours to cost the primary time, however subsequent fees shall be barely sooner. When the PAX 3 dry herb vaporizer is on, shake it a number of instances to indicate the present battery degree.
Petals and a hidden button
Flip the PAX 3 on by urgent the button within the middle of the mouthpiece, which can begin the heating course of. The petals on the entrance will flip purple and move upward because it heats up, and switch inexperienced when it reaches vaping temperature, which ought to take lower than 30 seconds.

The petals will then illuminate to indicate your present temperature setting. Press the mouthpiece button to cycle by temperatures, then maintain the button or shake the vape to set it.
- Temperature setting 1 – 360ºF (182ºC)
- Temperature setting 2 – 380°F (193°C)
- Temperature setting 3 – 400°F (204°C)
- Temperature setting 4 – 420ºF (216ºC)
Earlier than we use the PAX 3 for the primary time, we’ll run a burnoff cycle.
Standby mode
If you happen to set the PAX 3 down for round 30 seconds, the oven will begin to cool off. This makes extra environment friendly use of the battery, and retains your herbs from cooking once you aren’t actively hitting it. When the petals flip blue, the vape is in standby mode. Choosing it up, or touching the mouthpiece together with your lip or finger, will trigger it to warmth again up rapidly. After three minutes of inactivity, the PAX 3 will shut off by itself.
Burnoff
Now that the PAX 3 is charged and prepared, let’s run a burnoff cycle to verify there’s no residue left over from manufacturing or delivery. Flip the PAX 3 on with nothing within the oven, and switch it as much as the very best temperature setting. Because the PAX goes into an idle state after inactivity, simply sit with it for a couple of minutes, often choosing it up and transferring it round. After three to 5 minutes, any odd smells ought to have dissipated. If not, repeat the method.
Grind additional superb
The PAX 3 works finest with very finely floor herb. A two-piece grinder works finest, however you can even flip over your favourite four-tier in order that the herb stays between the tooth longer.
Pack it down tight
Press down on one aspect of the oven lid to carry the opposite edge, then take off the magnetic lid to disclose the oven. We advocate dumping the grinder contents onto a chunk of paper, then utilizing it to funnel them into the oven, which is simply the decrease, naked metallic portion. You’ll be able to pack a lot in there, and the PAX 3 works higher with a tightly packed oven, so use the sting of the oven lid — or the packing device from the Deluxe Equipment — to degree the herbs with the ledge contained in the oven space. If you happen to’d slightly use fewer herbs, use the half-pack lid and pack half as a lot.
Three is vital, 4 to complete
Flip the PAX 3 on by urgent the button on high, then maintain it for a number of seconds till the lights begin to flash. Press the buttons to cycle by the warmth settings — we advocate the third warmth setting, or three orange petals, to start out with — and maintain the button for a number of seconds to lock it in. That ought to provide you with decently thick vapor, with none danger of that “burnt popcorn” taste that much less exact conduction vapes are identified for. Because the bowl begins to die off, bumping the warmth degree to the fourth setting, with 4 pink petals, might help end off an oven.
Mild, quick puffs
For finest outcomes, take quick, mild attracts, like puffing on a cigar, or sipping a cup of scorching tea. You need your lips positioned on the fringe of the gadget, on the aspect with a slight hole within the mouthpiece, or on the middle of the raised mouthpiece the place the holes are. You will get thicker hits for those who give the vape 10-15 seconds between every draw.
No stir required
With the PAX 3’s tight pack and conductive warmth, you will not must mid-session. You might discover that the herbs on high of the oven have a lighter shade than the remainder of the oven, however that is regular
End and cleanup
Emptying the oven proper after every session can prevent a whole lot of deep cleansing down the street. As soon as it’s cooled a bit of, brush out the oven and the underside of the lid. The oven’s shade will change after the primary few makes use of, and it gained’t return to that unique look, even with cleansing.
