For this piece we will investigate two of the most popular products from our pipe and vaporizer lines respectively; the Pax 3 and the Genius pipe.
The Vaporizer: Pax 3 Vape
The Pax 3 is one of the best vaporizers available on the UK market. It is one of the most advanced vapes and allows the user to enjoy dry herb, oils, and waxes; letting you swap these materials on the fly with the Pax’ innovative concentrate insert.
The Pax 3 won’t force you to wait for your herb, it has a rapid heat time of only 15 seconds.
It boasts a powerful chamber over twice as powerful as any preceding models. This speed and strength is powered by a built in rechargeable battery that see you through any session!
The Pax 3 has an easy to read, intuitive, multi-coloured LED display that offers precise feedback on what’s going on inside your unit.
The vape also features a vibrating alert that will notify you of when your unit is ready to use!
The Pax features four temperature settings that allow you to customise your vape experience by adjusting your settings to thicken or thin your vapor. If the pre-set temperatures are not precise enough you can use the bluetooth connectivity to interface with a compatible smartphone app (available on both iOS and Android).
The app allows the user to control the temperature of the device to a very precise degree, it also comes with five individual heating profiles, standard, boost, efficiency power save mode, flavour mode, and stealth mode which turns off all external LEDS.
The Pax is a stylish and sleek vaporizer. It comes in four colours: Black, gold, rose gold, and silver, all of which come in a polished finish.
This, along with the stylish LED display makes the Pax 3 one of the most stylish vaporizers on the market.
Why Choose A Vape
Vaporizers are the healthiest way to enjoy herb. It uses its heating systems to exploit the boiling points of the active ingredients in herb and create a tasty vapor that has all of the effects of a joint but without the harmful toxins released by combustion.
Vapes are also more efficient than a combustion based method as your herb won't be going up in smoke between hits!
The Dry Herb Pipe: The Genius Pipe
When they set out to design their products Genius chose to work with the principles of Zen.
They wasnt their products to help you enter a higher state of mind. Zen embodies the design philosophy of minimalism and always makes use of uncluttered, natural looking designs.
The zen influence is obvious in their flagship product, the Genius Pipe, a unique, minimalist dry herb pipe. The Genius Pipe is designed to cool your smoke by creating dozens of micro vortexes whenever you take a hit.
This effect is due to the Genius’ genius engineering, a grid of dimples in the airpath help circulate and whip the air up into a flurry of vortices with every hit.
You can also enjoy concentrates in your Genius pipe buy using the absorbent Gstone to soak them up before packing it into the pipe’s bowl.
The cooling effect of Genius’ pipe should not be underestimated. Since the bygone days of yore it has been common knowledge that hot smoke can be very damaging to the human lung.
Studies confirm that a whole host of lung disease can be caused by the inhalation of hot smoke.
For herb fans throughout time finding ways to cool smoke has been a priority and eventually it became an art. The Genius Pipe is the latest innovation!
Why Choose a Pipe
Pipes are among the quickest and most compact ways to enjoy herb. They are easily packed and even more easily cleaned.
Unfortunately, they use combustion so they can damage your lungs, but if you prefer to smoke rather than vape, then a pipe is for you!
