The Planet of the Vapes ONE is a budget-friendly vaporizer that’s ultra-small, super simple, and crazy efficient. It is perfect for anyone looking for an easy-to-use and easy-to-share dry herb vape.

Planet of the Vapes worked directly with an already-established vape brand to build The ONE to the perfect specifications. The ONE has several improvements and added features that set it apart and add value over other budget vapes. For only $99 the PotV ONE is a great value in a small package.

Here’s why I really like the POTV One vape and recommend it often:

• Simple to use – there’s no special technique. Just inhale! It’s easy to reload and easy to clean too.
• Great Vapor – From the first hit to the last, the vapor from The ONE is smooth, potent, and delicious.
• Ultra Small – This vape is tiny enough to fit in the palm of your hand but still holds .15g of herb.
• Great Accessories – PotV has a bunch of great accessories including water pipe adapters, glass mouthpieces, and mini-bubbler attachments. They’re cheap and easy to swap.
• FREE SHIPPING – Planet of the Vapes ships FAST and FREE. They even include some freebies!

The POTV One retails for $99 but it goes on sale often. You can click here to pick it up directly from POTV.

How Does the POTV One Work?

Convection Hybrid Heating for Smokeless Vaporization

TL;DR – The PotV ONE vaporizes your weed instead of smoking. The magnetic mouthpiece assembly pulls off to access the titanium oven. The chamber holds about .15g of ground cannabis. The ONE will also work with broken-up chunks of bud if you don’t have a grinder.

The Details – The ONE vaporizer uses convection heating to vape your weed. Intake air is heated and pulled through the bowl vaporizing trichome heads and cannabinoids without burning the material. Vapor is pulled through the glass-dimpled cooling stem and inhaled directly into the lungs.

This vape uses 1/5 of a joint because it’s 5x more effective than smoking.

The bowl holds as little as .05 and as much as .25g, but it works best with about .15g of ground-up cannabis. Grinding the weed first exposes more trichomes to the hot convection air for better-tasting vapor.

Hybrid convection heating comes from the titanium bowl and the direct connection to the heater. The bowl heats up and stays hot adding hybrid conduction and radiant heating.

Hybrid Convection is perfect for quick and easy vapor, better flavor, and fuller extraction.

The four-minute session timer is long enough for 6 or 8 hits on the PotV ONE. I typically turn the vape back on for another 3 or 4 hits to finish the bowl fully. After 10-14 hits, the bowl is finished and I’m ready to reload.

After vaping your weed you can discard it or save it for later consumption. Vaporizers will extract about 76% of the THC and cannabinoids, vs 25% with smoking, so the spent material still has some medicinal value. Many choose to eat their ABV or extract the THC from ABV to make oil.

POTV One Build Quality

The PotV ONE has an isolated airpath that avoids the intake of air from the electronics or battery compartments. The heater is stainless steel and the bowl is titanium. The vapor path includes a small stainless steel screen and a small silicon gasket before connecting to the glass-dimpled cooling stem.

The PotV ONE passes my sniff test and my taste test. I’ve seen multiple teardowns and I trust the device. I am not a doctor or a lawyer though – just a vape geek :)

How to Clean the POTV One

This vape is pretty simple to maintain and the occasional deep cleaning requirements are really easy. The included brush is perfect for cleaning both the bowl and the screen. I use paper towels and isopropyl alcohol to clean the vape and its components right here at my desk.

Daily Maintenance

Casual maintenance is key! When you’re done vaping, empty the bowl immediately and brush off the gasket and screen while they’re still warm. That’s it. You’re done.

Monthly Maintenance

With regular usage the screen will get clogged with sticky goo and the glass stem will accumulate reclaim. Give them both a quick soak in isopropyl alcohol to clear them right up!

3 Reasons to SKIP the PotV ONE

1 – If you’re a heavy smoker and smoking throughout the day, skip the PotV ONE and get something better. The ONE is more suited for casual usage and only has enough power for 5 bowls per charge. Serious stoners should scope out my Hardest Hitting Vape list or keep scrolling for harder-hitting portable vapes.

2 – If you prefer an ON-DEMAND vaping experience you should skip The ONE and grab a V3 Pro or other vape with on-demand mode. On-Demand style vapes can take a quick hit or two without fully vaping the bowl. The ONE is a session vape and works best if you vape the full bowl. You can check out my top picks for on-demand vaporizers for more info.

3 – If you plan to vape a lot of dabs and concentrates in The ONE, you may want to consider a dedicated wax pen or another dab device. The One includes a steel mesh pad for vaping wax and oil, and it works, but it’s nowhere near as effective as it could be. Adding your dab directly to the dry herb and vaping a TWAX bowl works better than the mesh pad.

POTV One Vaporizer Comparisons

The ONE is only $99 so it may not be fair to compare it to the Mighty+ or the Pax 3, but I’m going to do it anyway! If you’d rather explore all of the better portable vape options in full detail, hit up my best portable vaporizers list.

PotV ONE vs V3 PRO

The ONE is a SESSION vaporizer while the V3 PRO has both ON-DEMAND and SESSION modes. The vapor from both of these devices is similar in taste and smoothness, but the V3 Pro has more power potential and can crank out more potent vapor with the right technique.

The V3 Pro also has session mode and can behave similarly to The One. The V3 Pro is closer to full convection and needs a longer draw to perform best.

See my V3 Pro vaporizer review for more info.

PotV One vs Pax Mini

The ONE is a CONVECTION heavy vape that is inhaled directly to the lungs while the Pax vaporizer is CONDUCTION and sipped in a mouth-to-lung manner.

The conduction vapor from the Pax delivers a deeper and stonier high, often more sedative at higher temperatures. The convection hybrid vapor from the PotV ONE is less sedative and more cerebral and heady.

The Pax vape is better for sharing with friends while out and about, but overall I’d still pick The One. Check out my Pax Mini vaporizer review for more info.
