I have a pax3 that is starting to show it's age. The battery is not holding it's charge that well and I'm sure the tech has improved a lot over the years. I was looking at a crafty or mighty+ but wanted to see if there was something else comparable for a little cheaper. I would like to keep it under 300, but can spend some more if it's worth it.
Unconventional but I highly recommend the combo of dynavap + ispire wand. Should be under your price and:
dynavaps are basically indestructible and easy to clean, heated by any source, like a lighter
the ispire wand is an induction heater, which is better than normal thermal, and it has standard replaceable (and USB chargeable) batteries. So you in theory never need to buy a new device
I second this and would add that if you’re a frequent user than go for the OmniVap.
I have a couple OmbiVaps and the M+ I started with. I like the M+, especially if it’s on the go but most of my use is at home and the Omni is better overall.
I have two ispire wands, one next to the couch (this is the on the go one if I travel) and another down next to the bed. We like to watch tv in bed before sleeping so when we go I throw my OmniVap in the stash case and take it with me.
I’d also recommend Dose Caps. I have a bunch from VGoodieZ. I fill a bunch at once and keep them in a tin for quick and easy reload.
I forgot to mention I already have a dynavap M with a fmj. I think I need a new cap for it since it seems like it is clicking a little before it's ready. Ive been using a triple flame torch lighter but the ispire wand has always interested me.
My wife really doesn't like it, so that's why I was looking for a replacement to the pax we share.
Yeah the caps wear out after a few years but the ispire makes the whole thing way easier, since you can set it to a temp and not overheat. I find that I can learn how many extra seconds I need if it's early
