PAX 4 (PAX FOUR): The Most Powerful PAX Dry Herb Vaporizer
The PAX 4, officially the PAX FOUR, is PAX’s most powerful dry herb vaporizer. A new high-output hybrid heater (conduction plus convection) delivers dense clouds, and PAX rates it for 50% more vapor than the PAX 2, PAX 3, PAX PLUS, PAX MINI and PAX FLOW. It keeps the familiar pocket-size PAX shape and adds USB-C charging, four heat modes and a redesigned oven that is easier to load and clean.

PAX 4 FAQ
Is the PAX FOUR the same as the PAX 4?
Yes. PAX FOUR is the official name PAX uses, and PAX 4 (or PAX4) is the common shorthand. They are the same dry herb vaporizer.
When did the PAX 4 come out?
PAX introduced the PAX FOUR in early March 2026 as its most powerful dry herb vaporizer, joining the PAX MINI and PAX FLOW in the current lineup.
Is the PAX 4 worth it?
If you want the most vapor PAX makes in the classic pocket-size PAX shape, yes. PAX says it produces 50% more vapor than the PAX 2, PAX 3, PAX PLUS, PAX MINI and PAX FLOW, and it adds USB-C charging and an easier-to-clean oven. The trade-off is battery life: up to 50 minutes, or about 5 sessions per charge.
PAX 4 vs PAX Flow: which should I get?
PAX positions the FOUR for power and the FLOW for flavor. Both use hybrid conduction and convection heating and charge by USB-C. Pick the FOUR for the densest clouds in the PAX lineup, or the FLOW for flavor-focused sessions and its Bong Mode for water pipe use with the PAX Waterpipe Adapter 2 (sold separately).
PAX 4 vs PAX Plus: what is the difference?
The PAX PLUS heats by conduction only and uses PAX's magnetic charger. The PAX FOUR adds a high-output hybrid heater, USB-C charging and a redesigned oven, and PAX rates it for 50% more vapor. The PAX PLUS has been discontinued, and we have limited remaining stock.
PAX 4 vs PAX 3: is it a big upgrade?
Yes. PAX calls the FOUR a major step up from the conduction-only PAX 3, with hybrid heating, USB-C charging in place of the magnetic charger, a redesigned oven for easier loading and cleaning, and 50% more vapor.
PAX 4 vs PAX Mini: which should I get?
PAX positions the MINI for simplicity and the FOUR for power. Choose the MINI if you want PAX's most compact, lower-cost device, or the FOUR if you want the most vapor and potency PAX offers.
How long does the PAX 4 battery last?
PAX rates the FOUR for up to 50 minutes of run time, or about 5 sessions, per full charge. It charges with the included USB-C cable.
Why does my PAX 4 shut off when it gets hot?
For safety, PAX designed the FOUR to turn itself off when it reaches sustained high temperatures. Let it cool down and it will resume normal operation.
What comes in the PAX 4 box?
The PAX FOUR device, a Multi-Tool, 3 oven screens, a wire brush, flat and raised mouthpieces and a USB-C charging cable.
What warranty does the PAX 4 have?
PAX gives the FOUR a 2-year limited warranty, plus 1 extra year when you register the device within 30 days of purchase. As an authorized PAX retailer, every PAX 4 we sell is genuine and covered.
Can the PAX 4 vaporize concentrates?
PAX designed and sells the PAX FOUR as a dry herb (flower) vaporizer.
