Venty – Best Dry Herb Vaporizer

Crafty Plus – Runner Up

The Crafty+ is my 2nd highest-rated portable dry herb vaporizer and one of three by Storz and Bickel. If I had to select one portable vaporizer from all the ones I’ve tested, it would likely be the Venty, Crafty+ or its sibling, the Mighty+ vaporizer. These vaporizers are reliable and produce great-tasting vapor while scoring high in both ease of use and maintenance categories. For a comprehensive analysis, check out my full Crafty+ vaporizer review.

The original Crafty was renowned for delivering excellent vapor quality while being user-friendly, efficient, and easy to maintain. The new Crafty+ Plus took everything I loved about the original and introduced a few key upgrades, enhancing its performance. Although it’s not a complete redesign, these new additions make the device even better.

Overall, the Venty, Crafty+, and Mighty+ are the vaporizers I find myself reaching for first. As long as the Crafty+ has a charge, I always keep it in my pocket or backpack, ready for adventure. If you’re seeking a versatile, do-it-all portable dry herb vaporizer that doesn’t require an extensive battery life, look no further than the Crafty Plus vaporizer.

However, if you anticipate using it for more than four bowls a day, consider upgrading to the new Mighty+ Vaporizer, which I’ve listed below in the best battery life category. The Mighty+ is every bit as good as the Crafty+. It just isn’t nearly as portable. Check out my Mighty+ Review for more info.

Davinci IQ3 – Best Smart Vaporizer

The Davinci IQ3 is the perfect vaporizer for someone looking for complete control over their sessions. You can micro-dose via the stainless steel dosing capsules and track your exact usage via the dosage meter. Everything is controlled via the smartphone app, desktop app, or the display on the vaporizer. If you’re someone who likes to dive into analytics or track metrics, the Davinci IQ3 is the dry herb vaporizer for you.

My favorite feature on the new Davinci IQ3 vaporizer is the airflow dial, which allows you to adjust the resistance. Not only is it more free-flowing than the OG IQ, but I can also get even bigger hits now, especially when you use it with the WPA and a glass piece. Check out more info in my Davinci IQ3 vaporizer review.

The new Davinci IQ3 accessories make it a decent vaporizer for micro-dosing but the .7g chamber can crank out massive clouds for heavier users, especially if you use it in group situations. The replaceable 21700 battery system averages over 90 minutes of continuous use, making it a great vaporizer for long days. However, the battery charging system is the biggest downside to the Davinci IQ3 vaporizer.

Yes, it offers a replaceable battery system and excellent battery life per full charge, BUT it takes roughly 3-4 hours to charge a dead battery within the device. So if you are a heavier user, you may want to pick up an extra battery or two. There are 3rd party external battery chargers available, like the Nitecore i2, which will cut the charging time in half, but it’s an extra $20 accessory. If you need quicker charge times, I recommend checking out the Davinci IQC vaporizer in the “best session-style vaporizer” section, which offers USB-C charging and can fully charge a battery in around 2 hours.

I enjoy using my IQ3 out on the trails, skiing, and biking, and again, the majority of vaporents will enjoy using this vaporizer, especially with your glass pieces. Lastly, the newer “Cool Core” flavor chamber design makes cleaning much easier and still comes with an industry-leading 10-year warranty.

The new Davinci IQ3 retails for $299, and you can click here to pick it up directly from Davinci. Don’t forget to use coupon code WIZARDFAM to save 10%. Check out my Davinci IQ3 vaporizer review for more info and lots of photos / comparisons.

POTV Lobo – Best New Vaporizer

The POTV Lobo is a pocket-friendly powerhouse featuring great flavor, potent hits, and even extraction with no need to stir or mix. The Lobo uses a hybrid heating system, a replaceable 18650 3500mAh battery, and a full temp spectrum ranging from 320F – 430F (160C – 221C).

I use the Lobo vaporizer mainly for flower but it does come with a dosing capsule and concentrate pad for use with dabs. I tend to use the Lobo at home with the WPA and a bubbler but I have taken it out on hikes. The glass stems make it a bit tough to do anything crazy but overall, the Lobo is easy to use out on the go.

The Lobo excels in quick/potent extraction and has no problem finishing an entire .25-gram chamber in 4-5 hits, especially with a bubbler. I think the POTV Lobo is the perfect vaporizer for someone who wants a powerful vaporizer but doesn’t mind the 45-second average heat-up times and a glass stem.

I highly recommend checking out my full POTV Lobo review for all the details, comparisons, and tons of pictures. The Lobo vaporizer retails for $159 and you can click here to pick it up directly from Planet of the Vapes.

Tafee Bowle 2.0 – Best On-Demand Convection

Tafee Bowle 2.0 – My all-time favorite on-demand 100% convection vaporizer is the Tafee Bowle by Tafee Technologies. The Tafee Bowle 2.0 vaporizer mimics the look of a larger piece of drinkware and, at first, can be a little off-putting, but the build quality, performance, and overall session experience are unmatched. Plus, it’s nice to have a refreshing beverage to sip on in between draws.

The drinkware portion of the vaporizer is removable, leaving you with a puc-type base and a stem. They do include a shorter stem (Stubby Stem) for use without the drinkware, but overall, this isn’t the most pocket-friendly vaporizer. I consider this one more for at-home use. You can definitely take it with you on the go, but there are better options for pocket-friendly vaporizers. Just none that perform quite like the Tafee Bowle.

The Tafee Bowle 2.0 works by loading the included capsule into the base of the stem and then loading the stem into the base or “puc.” The heater is located above the bowl/capsule, so air flows down over the herbs and helps keep the entire chamber cleaner. Most vaporizers place the heater below the chamber, which causes the herbs to stick to the screen rather than sitting in the chamber.

Tafee Tech also includes many accessories for the Tafee Bowle, including a grinder for the dosing capsules, cleaning tools, extra mouthpieces (flat and tall), and a shorter stem. So, while it may be higher priced, you definitely get a lot for your money. Check out more info in my full Tafee Bowle 2.0 Vaporizer Review.

Lastly, the Tafee Bowle features a massive 5000mAh battery, and its battery life is very impressive. You can click here to purchase the Tafee Bowle 2.0 directly from Tafee Technologies. Don’t forget to use coupon code VAPWIZ to get a free Stubby Stem ($50 Value)! You have to add the Stubby Stem to your cart and then enter the VAPWIZ coupon code. Here is a direct link to the Stubby Stem accessory page.

Mighty Plus – Best Vaporizer for Battery Life

The Mighty+ (Plus) vaporizer is the bigger brother of the smaller Crafty+ (Plus) portable vaporizer and an upgraded version of the Original Mighty released back in 2014. The newest Mighty+ Vaporizer looks the same in shape and overall size but made some necessary internal upgrades to keep up with the current competition.

The Mighty+ Vaporizer offers an extremely long battery life for a portable dry herb vaporizer. The battery will easily last a full day of hiking, biking, or enjoying an outdoor concert. I average between 6-8 sessions on a full charge, and the unit will fully charge in about 90 minutes.

It’s also one of the easiest to use. The Mighty Plus has an on-vape, easy-to-read LED display and easy-to-use temp buttons on both sides. The full temp spectrum ranges from 105F-410F. Although the Mighty+ is a bit big for the pockets, the extra size and weight make it extremely easy to pass around and use in group scenarios.

Check out my Mighty+ Vaporizer Review for all the info and more pictures. You can also click here to buy the Mighty+ (Plus) Vaporizer directly from Storz & Bickel.

Arizer Solo 3 – Best Vaporizer for Home Use

One of my favorite portable vaporizers to use at home while watching shows on the couch is the new Arizer 3. The Solo 3 is a portable powerhouse that comes with a WPA (Water Pipe Adapter) for easy hook-up with your glass pieces.

The Solo 3 features three hours of average battery life, a full temp spectrum, and a new auto-inverting screen that rotates when upside down. I’ve averaged around 15 seconds to heat to 392F and I was able to get 16 bowls on a single charge. The Hybrid heating system creates above-average vapor quality but the draw resistance is quite a bit higher on the Arizer models.

The Solo 3 kicks out massive clouds and is the perfect vaporizer to bring to a buddy’s house or sit and chill while watching Netflix. You can use it while it’s plugged in and never run out of battery life.

Solo 2 Max and Solo 2 – Arizer just recently released the Solo 2 Max and the Solo 2 (previous model) is still being sold for $135 which is quite the steal. Both Arizer and POTV have the older versions for sale.

Lastly, the Solo 3 comes with a lifetime warranty on the heating element, a 2-year warranty against defects, and a 1-year warranty on the battery. Besides the glass stem, this is one of the most durable portable vaporizers you can own and will last a lifetime.

You can click here to pick up the Solo 3 directly from Arizer. Don’t forget to use coupon code VAPEWIZ20 to get 20% off. Check out my Arizer Solo 3 Vaporizer review for more info, pictures, and comparisons.

Davinci IQC – Best Session-Style Vaporizer

The IQC is Davinci’s newest portable dry herb vaporizer, loaded with great features and exceptional performance. It comes with a full temp spectrum via on-vape buttons, a replaceable 18650 battery system, USB-C charging, and a smartphone app for all the analytics and session options you could dream of.

I use my Davinci IQC vaporizer most on outdoor adventures (bike rides, hikes, camping), and it works great for small 2-4 person groups. The quick heat-up time allows me to get in a quick session on the trail and conceal it back in my pocket or backpack when I’m finished. It is a bit bulky for the pocket (on bike rides) but will fit perfectly in the top pouch of that killer fanny pack you’ve been rocking.

The biggest advantage of the IQC is the USB-C charging, and I’ve been able to fully charge a battery in a little over 90 minutes. That’s a huge improvement over the Miqro and IQ2. The IQC vaporizer also offers pass-through charging so that you can use it all day around the house. It works best with the water pipe adapter, the bubbler, or the new Davinci Hydrotube.

You can click here to pick up the Davinci IQC directly from Davinci. Don’t forget to use coupon code WIZARDFAM to save 15%. Read more about the IQC in my full Davinci IQC vaporizer review.

Pax Plus – Most Pocket-Friendly Vaporizer

The Pax Plus vaporizer is my most used portable dry herb vaporizer for mountain biking, hiking, and most of my summer activities. It’s easy to pocket and easily concealed, making it the perfect vaporizer for use on the go.

The Pax Plus, along with its smaller sibling, the Pax Mini, are two of the most durable dry herb vaporizers I’ve tested. If you only knew how many times I’ve dropped these things.

Initial testing has shown the new Pax Plus extracts herbs quicker, and I’m getting better sessions than I ever have from a Pax vaporizer. So while they didn’t change much, that you can see, I do think they improved the heating algorithm and made the Pax Plus a lot more efficient.

I’m enjoying the concentrate insert, but I don’t see it replacing anyone’s dab rig or e-nail. It does extract the materials well without creating a big mess, but it doesn’t get near as hot as traditional methods. The Pax Plus comes with everything you need to vape dry herbs and concentrates.

The Pax Plus is a great portable vaporizer when considering battery life, portability, durability, and overall ease of use. The new Half-Pack lid is an excellent feature for single-person sessions. You no longer have to buy third-party accessories to maximize efficiency, and the concentrate insert provides a perfect option for using materials other than dry herbs. You can click here to pick up the Pax Plus directly from Pax and check out my Pax Plus Review for an extensive breakdown.

Arizer Air MAX – Best Vaporizer Under $200

The Arizer Air Max is the best-tasting and best-performing portable vaporizer under $200. The Hybrid heating system produces some of the best clouds and it’s by far the best Arizer Air yet. Check out my full Arizer Air MAX vaporizer review for more info, comparisons and tons of pictures.

The Arizer Air MAX is a pocket-friendly, hybrid heating, feature-packed portable vaporizer powered by a massive 5000mAh replaceable/rechargeable 18650. I was able to get 13 bowls on a single charge which is insane considering the size of this device.

I’ve averaged around 45 seconds to heat up to 380F and the Air Max has taken roughly 3 hours to fully charge via USB-C. The Air MAX includes the auto-inverting screen and works great with the included WPA and glass pieces, just like the new Solo 3 featured above in the Best for Home-use category.

If you’re looking for the best bang for your buck under $200, I would get the Air Max. The Arizer Air Max retails for $219 but the prices fluctuate depending on sales. You can click here to pick it up directly from Arizer. Don’t forget to use coupon code VAPEWIZ20 to save 20%.

HR Rogue 2 – Best Vaporizer Under $150

The Healthy Rips Rogue 2 is a pocket-friendly dry herb vaporizer with exceptional battery life, quick heat-up times, and faster-than-average charging via USB-C. The Rogue Vaporizer features a hybrid heating system, although it leans more towards conduction and a full temperature spectrum ranging from 280F – 430F.

I use my Rogue vaporizer most on outdoor adventures like hiking, biking, disc golfing, or skiing because the outer shell is exceptionally durable, and the battery life will last me a full day’s worth of sessions.

The one downside to the Rogue vaporizer is the display screen can be hard to see on bright sunny days, and if you want to use concentrates, you’ll need to pick up the Rogue dosing capsules, which I talk more about in my full Rogue 2 vaporizer review. It’s also pretty heavy when compared to other units like the Pax Plus, Pax Mini, and Fury Edge.

If you’re on the fence between this and the Pax Plus vaporizer, I think you’ll like the vapor quality offered in both the Rogue and the Fury Edge over both the Pax Mini and Pax Plus. The Hybrid heating creates a slightly better taste, and there’s not quite as much draw resistance with the Healthy Rips vaporizers. But again, the Pax vaporizers are the more pocket-friendly option.

Overall, the Healthy Rips Rogue is a great vaporizer for first-time buyers and heavier users. The Rogue 2 vaporizer retails for $139, and you can click here to buy it directly from Healthy Rips.

Pax Mini – Best Vaporizer Under $125

The Pax Mini vaporizer is the smallest Pax unit yet. It is also the best portable vaporizer under $125. Pax units are some of the most durable dry herb vaporizers on the market, and over the years, I have used my Pax units more than most other portables.

I use the Pax vaporizers most for outdoor activities because the rugged outer shell keeps it safe from the oops moments. They are simple to use but do require a fine grind and regular cleaning for the best results. Get all the details in my Pax Mini vaporizer review.

Despite the lower price and smaller size, the Mini still heats up fast in about 20 seconds and still has up to 2 hours of battery life.

The Pax Mini does have a slightly smaller bowl than the Pax Plus, so if you are a heavier user and want the larger bowl, along with more heating modes and accessories, the Plus might be worth the extra cash. You can click here to check out the Pax Mini directly from Pax Labs.

POTV One – Best Vaporizer Under $100

The POTV One is a very small, albeit powerful portable dry herb vaporizer. The POTV One is “one” of the most discreet dry herb vaporizers on the market. The feature I like most about the POTV One vaporizer is the lack of draw resistance. It’s one of the freest flowing portable vaporizers on the market, and that allows me to rip the shit out of this thing.

The POTV One vaporizer is powerful enough for your bongs and bubblers but also perfect for micro-dosing via the POTV One dosing capsules. You can read more about the dosing capsules in my POTV One vaporizer review.

Overall the POTV One vape can satisfy everyone, including heavier daily users or occasional novice users. The only downside to this unit is battery life per full charge, but it’s pretty decent for the size. I don’t think you can find a better vaporizer for the price, and POTV backs up the One vape with a 2-year warranty.

You can click here to buy the POTV One directly from Planet of the Vapes.

XMAX V3 Nano – Best Vaporizer Under $50

The XMAX V3 Nano ($49) is quite the portable vaporizer for the price. I’ve never listed a portable dry herb vaporizer under $50 on this page because the majority of them aren’t worth the money but the V3 Nano definitely is. There are a few quirks like the small chamber makes loading pretty difficult, and the screen needs to be cleaned frequently but overall I really like the vapor quality, the free-flowing draw, and the 30-second average heat-up times. Check out my full XMAX V3 Nano vaporizer review for all the details, comparisons, and more pictures.

The V3 Nano is a smaller, basic version of the XMAX V3 Pro vaporizer (best beginner vaporizer) and the NANO will work best as a single-person session-style vaporizer. The chamber is too small and the battery (1000mAh) won’t work the best for multiple bowls with multiple people. Think of the XMAX V3 Pro as your beloved piece that always does the job well and think of the XMAX V3 Nano as the one hitter that gets it done in a pinch. Both fill a void. I’ve been averaging around 25 minutes of continuous use with the XMAX V3 Nano.

The XMAX V3 Nano features one temperature spectrum (392F – 428F) with one operating button, a simple display system for battery life and temperature settings, and USB-C charging. You also get a one-year manufacturer warranty and haptic feedback.

Overall the XMAX V3 NANO is a great vaporizer for the price and I think it’s the perfect portable vaporizer for quick trips or for someone just entering the dry herb vaporizer market and not wanting to risk a lot of money to see if they like it. The VAS (vaporizer acquisition syndrome) is real tho. You’ve been warned.

You can click here to pick up the XMAX V3 Nano from my recommended authorized retailer. Hit me up in the comments with any questions.

Arizer Air SE – Best Budget Option

The Arizer Air SE ($89) is a portable dry herb vaporizer featuring a hybrid heating system with an all-glass vapor path, 5 preset temperatures ranging from 356F to 410F, and an average 60-second heat-up time. The Air SE offers excellent vapor quality via the hybrid heating system and overall the Air SE is easy to operate, maintain, and keep clean. As with all Arizer portable vaporizers, there is a bit of draw resistance and it takes a long slow draw to get the best results.

The Arizer Air SE is one of the cheapest portable vaporizers offering a replaceable battery system and the big 3350mAh 18650 provides 80 minutes of continuous use. Unfortunately, the AIR SE uses micro-usb charging so it takes some time to fully charge the battery within the device. The good news is that Arizer offers replaceable batteries and a dual-battery external charger so you can always have a battery charged and ready to go. The Air SE vaporizer also offers pass-through charging as long as you have a small charge to begin with.

Overall the Air SE is a great vaporizer for the price and perfect for someone wanting a replaceable battery system without breaking the bank. You can click here to pick up the Arizer SE directly from Arizer. Use coupon code VAPEWIZ20 to save 20% at Arizer. I just finished up my Arizer Air SE Vaporizer Review. I included tons of pictures and probably way too much info. Hit me up with any questions.

Davinci Miqro-C – Smallest Vaporizer

The Davinci Miqro-C Vaporizer is the smallest dry herb conduction vaporizer made by Davinci Vaporizer. It features pretty much everything that comes with the Davinci IQ but in a much smaller unit. You still get the four smart path options, which gradually increase temperature over the session, a precise temp option, boost mode, and the pearl, which actually works in the Miqro.

It’s also one of the freest-flowing vaporizers in this price range. It doesn’t require too much effort to get a good draw as long as you keep it clean. I’ve been using the Miqro most during mountain biking, hiking, and nights out on the town because it’s easily pocketable, easy to use, and easy to load. It’s not going to be the best vaporizer for big groups or heavier users because of the battery life. Still, each battery will get you about 30 minutes of average battery life. So, three 10-minute sessions. If you think you will be using it in groups or on a heavy daily basis, you might want to consider upgrading to the newer Davinci IQC (read review). 

The Miqro vaporizer retails for $99, and you can click here to pick it up directly from Davinci. Don’t forget to use coupon code WIZARDFAM to save 15%. Check out my Davinci Miqro-C Review for more info.

XMAX V3 Pro – Best Beginner Vaporizer

The XMAX V3 Pro vaporizer is one of the most affordable dry herb vaporizers on the market when considering how many features you get. The XMAX V3 Pro features a replaceable 18650 battery system, hybrid heating (conduction and convection), a large 3.7v 2550mAh battery for long or group sessions, and charges quickly via USB-C.

There are “cheaper” units out there like the POTV ONE and XMAX V3 Nano (best under $50), and they are both very good units as well, but they don’t feature a replaceable battery system, nor do they offer the battery life available with the XMAX V3 Pro. The only downside to the XMAX v3 Pro is the overall chamber size, especially if you’re a heavier user or looking to use it in group scenarios. The V3 Pro is more for single-person sessions with the occasional group session.

The reason I picked the XMAX V3 Pro as the “best beginner dry herb vaporizer” is because it’s very easy to use, features an easy-to-read digital temperature display, and there are no finicky loading styles or learning techniques to master. Just place some dry herbs in the chamber, set your desired temp, and you’re ready to go in less than 60 seconds. The top chamber also doubles as a funnel making it easier to load your precious herbs on the go without spilling everywhere.

The next step up from this device with a replaceable battery system would be the POTV Lobo listed above. The POTV Lobo offers a larger chamber for bigger sessions or group scenarios and offers better vapor quality when compared to the XMAX v3 Pro.

You can click here to buy the XMAX V3 Pro from my recommended authorized retailer and check out my full XMAX V3 Pro review for more info.

Dynavap M7 – Best Butane Vaporizer

Another good cheap portable vaporizer is the Dynavap M7 for $75. This vape does require a torch, lighter, or induction heater, so it may not be for everyone or every situation, but it’s incredibly reliable and consistent.

The Dynavap M7 works by heating the cap until you hear an audible click. Remove the heat source and puff away. The cap will click again when it’s cooled down enough for another session. I like to use my Dynavap vaporizers while out camping or in places where I won’t be able to charge devices.

One of the features I like most about the Dynavap devices is that they are extremely efficient with your herbs and great for microdosing. The downside to the Dynavap vaporizers is that it takes a few sessions to master if you’re using a torch. That’s why I prefer to use Induction Heaters, especially at home.

Check out my Dynavap M7 & M7 XL Review for more information on these new models. Check out my Dynvap Vaporizer Buying Guide for info about all the different models, induction heaters, accessories, and more.

The Dynavap M7 retails for $75 and you can click here to pick it up directly from Dynavap and save 10% with code VAPEWIZ10.

Info to Consider When Buying A Dry Herb Vaporizer

There are a few things to consider before buying a portable vaporizer, especially if you are new to the idea of vaporization. First, you need to ask yourself: Do I want a session-style or an on-demand-style vaporizer?

Next, how important are the size, weight, and overall portability factors? Do you need it to be portable, or will this be a home-use portable? If you don’t need it to be portable, I recommend checking out my best desktop vaporizer guide for something more stationary. If portability is the main factor, you may have to sacrifice some things like battery life.

Lastly, are you a heavier user? If so, find a portable vaporizer with long average battery life or one that offers replaceable batteries. While batteries have come a long way in recent years, they still won’t keep up all-day use.

A good example of this is the Crafty+ vaporizer. The Crafty+ is hands-down my favorite portable vaporizer, but it has roughly half the battery life of the Mighty. So I tend to reach for the Mighty when I know it’ll be a long adventure or group scenario.

Bonus Tip – Vaporizers perform a million times better when you grind up your herbs. Check out my top picks for weed grinders to get a few different options.

Convection vs. Conduction vs. Hybrid Heating

Last Note: It’s important to know the difference between convection, conduction, and hybrid-style heating when it comes to dry herb portable vaporizers.

Hybrid heating vaporizers still function similarly to that of a conduction vaporizer, meaning that you will still want at least 5-15 minutes to chill and sesh, and once you start a bowl, you will want to finish it. But you gain some of the improved flavor and vapor quality associated with the convection units. The Crafty+ and the Mighty+ utilize hybrid heating systems.

Best Dry Herb Vaporizer Categories Explained

Best Overall Portable Vaporizer – The best overall vaporizer is the vaporizer I use the most because it checks all the boxes. It’s easy to use, easy to maintain, and portability is a big factor. This is the portable vaporizer that I reach for the most and count on it to be reliable because it has to be. #oneandonly #dailydriver

Best Battery Life – This category features the portable vaporizer with the best battery life per full charge while also being easy to use, easy to maintain, and reliable. The portable vaporizer with the best battery life is perfect for those long-day adventures and can easily get a group medicated. Size isn’t necessarily a huge issue in this category, but it still needs to be semi-portable.

Most Portable Vaporizers – This vaporizer must be the most portable or “pocket-friendly” and the most rugged/durable. It needs to be able to handle a drop, and it needs to have decent battery life because I’ll be using it on the go. This is the vaporizer that I take with me hiking, biking, skiing, and anything adventure-related because I know I can keep it safely in my pocket.

Best Budget Vaporizer – This section features my top picks for the best budget or “cheap” dry herb portable vaporizers.

Best Butane Vaporizers – This category features my highest-rated picks for portable butane vaporizers. Butane vaporizers work by heating herb via a glass stem (i.e. Sticky Bricks) or a cap system (dynavap). Other butane vaporizers are out there, but these are the only two I use regularly.

Best Dry Herb Vaporizer 2025 Wrap-Up

I believe any of these vaporizers could be someone’s favorite. It’s important to know that not everyone will have the same opinion on the best vaporizer. It ultimately depends on your specific situation.

With that said, I believe the Venty, Crafty+, and Mighty+ are currently the best overall portable vaporizers on the market for most people due to their ease of use and consistency. The best vaporizer for the person who wants replaceable batteries would be the POTV Lobo and the best vaporizer for the stealth user who is always on the go is the Pax Plus.

Do you have a portable vaporizer that you recommend or want to see reviewed before you buy? Leave a comment below or hit me up on my contact page, and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you for checking out my site and my top picks for the best dry herb vaporizers in 2025.
