The PAX Mini 2, officially called the PAX Mini and often called the New PAX Mini, is PAX’s smallest and simplest dry herb vaporizer. PAX launched it in October 2025 to replace the original Mini, keeping the same pocket-sized design while adding the features people asked for.

The biggest upgrades are four heat modes, a bigger oven and two lid sizes. The original Mini had one fixed temperature. The Mini 2 lets you choose your session, from light and discreet to dense and cloudy. It ships with the half-pack lid for quick 0.25g solo sessions, and the included full-pack lid opens it up to 0.5g.

It’s still as easy as ever. Pack it, press the button and sip. Read our full PAX Mini review, or browse the full lineup in our PAX vaporizers collection.

Everything Else You Need to Know About the PAX Mini 2

Build Quality and Materials

The PAX Mini 2 has a lightweight anodized aluminum body that holds up well to everyday carry. At about 89g, it’s light enough to forget it’s in your pocket. Inside, the oven is stainless steel.

The magnetic oven lid seals securely so your herb stays put in your pocket, but it pops off easily for loading. The flat mouthpiece sits flush with the body for pocket carry. The raised mouthpiece keeps your lips a little further from the warm tip, which we find more comfortable.

How does it work?

1. Fully charge it with the magnetic charging cable before first use.
2. Press down on either side of the oven lid to pop it off.
3. Grind your herb medium-fine and pack it firmly into the oven. Use the half-pack lid for smaller sessions, or the full-pack lid for a bigger bowl.
4. Replace the lid and install a mouthpiece.
5. Press and hold the button for 2 seconds. The LED petals glow pink while it heats.
6. Quick press the button to choose a heat mode, then wait 3 seconds or shake it to confirm.
7. After about 22 seconds, the petals turn green. Take slow, steady sips.

Shake it any time to check your battery. If you set it down between draws, it drops into standby to save battery and herb, then heats back up when you pick it up. If it ever acts up, hold the button for 7 seconds while it’s on to factory reset it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

• PAX’s smallest and lightest vaporizer
• Fastest heat up in the PAX lineup, about 22 seconds
• 4 heat modes
• Half-pack and full-pack lids for smaller or bigger sessions
• Standby saves battery and herb
• Simple enough for first-time users

Cons

• No USB-C port, magnetic charger only
• Gets hot by the end of a session
• About 3 to 4 sessions per charge
• Not built for big clouds
• Dry herb only

Temperature Settings

The PAX Mini 2 has four heat modes, shown by the LED petals:

• Petal 1 (Purple): 356°F / 180°C. Minimal vapor for discreet sessions.
• Petal 2 (Green): 374°F / 190°C. Stretches your herb over a longer session.
• Petal 3 (Yellow): 392°F / 200°C. More flavor with smooth vapor.
• Petal 4 (Orange): 420°F / 215°C. The most vapor and the densest clouds.

Orange and Yellow are our go-to modes. Purple and Green are great when you only want a light session.

Features That Stand Out

The two lid sizes are the biggest win. The standard half-pack lid is perfect for a quick 0.25g solo session without wasting herb. Swap in the full-pack lid when you want a full 0.5g bowl.

Small touches make it easy to live with too. Haptic vibrations confirm every setting, standby saves battery when you set it down, and a quick shake shows your battery level on the petals.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Empty the oven after every session once it’s cool, so leftover herb doesn’t build up.

PAX recommends a full clean every 3 to 5 sessions:

1. Wait about 10 minutes for the oven to cool.
2. Remove the mouthpiece and oven lid, then clear out the oven with the multi-tool.
3. Dip the wire brush in isopropyl alcohol and push it through the vapor path from the top. This also pushes out the oven screen.
4. Move the brush back and forth to clear any buildup.
5. Wipe the oven and oven lid with a swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol.
6. Soak the oven screen in isopropyl alcohol for 15 minutes.
7. Let everything dry completely before putting it back together.

To replace a screen, press the round end with the multi-tool to eject it.

Flavor and Cloud Performance

The PAX Mini 2 delivers light, smooth vapor with clean flavor, especially on the lower modes. Because it uses conduction heating, it’s built for slow, steady sips rather than big pulls. A firm pack gives you the best results.

The draw has a bit of resistance, but it stays smooth. Orange puts out solid vapor for a device this size. If you want heavy clouds, though, the PAX Four or PAX Flow is a better fit.

Accessories And Parts That Fit

Charge your Mini 2 on the PAX Charging Tray for a clean, simple setup. For cooler, smoother hits, connect it to a water pipe with the PAX Water Pipe Adapter.

A spare PAX Multi-Tool is handy for packing and cleaning. Browse more in our PAX parts and accessories collection.

Where This Fits in Your Setup

The PAX Mini 2 is the smallest, simplest PAX, ideal for beginners and everyday carry. Want the most powerful PAX, with hybrid heating and dense clouds in the classic PAX shape? Look at the PAX Four. For the most open draw, Bong Mode and fast USB-C charging, check out the PAX Flow.
