My humble start to vaping. I outgrew this device pretty quickly, but it’s not bad for $100, and it showed me a better world than combustion.

And for that, I’m thankful.

    Awesome! The Xmax V3 Pro is a heck of a nice entry-level vaporizer. I wish it would have existed ten years ago and maybe we could have converted more people to vaporizing! Lol.

    I personally prefer session mode more than on-demand.

    Pro tip - Fury Edge/POTV One capsules fit the oven on the Xmax v3 Pro. This makes life easier for refilling on the go. AND useful for microdosing: Put a tiny bit of herb in the oven, and then use an empty capsule (with or without cap depending on size of microdose) to hold things in place during the session. Microdosing is a great way to reduce consumption.

      Hell yeah, i agree with capsules. I used them in every device I own.

      It’s been a long way XD. I’m just glad that the days that the only mass produced convection vapes were basically the firefly,minivap and grasshopper are long gone. When I bought my first vape I “had to” buy the ff2 since all the other options were basically conduction session vapes. It was great (although very picky about technique) and lasted for years, but $250 for a first vape is a huge risk for a beginner.

        See I’ve never been a big fan of the Firefly vaporizers - I’m a clean freak and I always hated how they have the top plate with foam gaskets creating an air tight seal. Shame too because I like the design of the device overall. (The original FF1 was a heavy big ass device, but it was pretty cool to look at. The FF2 is a bit smaller and more manageable in the pocket)

          I was lucky I guess as when 1 session a day\night is enough for you, you don’t feel it much. But I get you, these days I totally get how hussle free the maintenance can be, stem packing is the shit!

          My real issue was how hard it was to share it with friends. It’s not only that you need to take a convection style hit, but you need to feel the vaporizer and find the correct draw speed (usually when you do it makes the ff2 whistle lol). So yeah my friends has a no-vapor hits almost every time which made it harder for them tp get the vaporization thing. These days I just let them hit the glow whatever they want and it delivers :), the only “requirement” I tell them is to do a couple of cigar puffs.
