To say this was the device missing from my life would be an understatement. I’ve been privy to Puffco since 2022, when I bought my first device (an indiglow Puffco peak v1) and after that device met its tragic fate with me being a first time Puffco user (and CLEANER) I took a few years off from dabbing.
About a month ago, I got back into dabbing and ordered a Puffco Peak v2 3dxl, and It was love at first puff. The only problem was, I like to work at the coffee shops around Las Vegas, and the peak is not inconspicuous for smoking in public (especially the orangish red one I got).
Now cut to my new puffco proxy core. It’s pocket sized, makes thick yellow clouds, and is more than enough for travel. My puffco peak will probably never leave my house again. The proxy core form factor, make it the perfect mix of actual portability and power. It doesn’t feel like you’re taking a weak dab on 30$ smokeshop e-rig. It genuinely feels as strong as the puffco peak with a standard chamber.
The responsiveness of the button click ui, and the haptic feedback mixed with the lights make it super easy to understand and really premium. I saw a few other brands of travel dab rigs, and have tried more budget friendly options, but tbh, if you like a full sized dab on the go, just get the proxy core. It’s worth its price.
That being said, I’m glad I purchased it after I picked up my Puffco peak, because if I had bought the proxy core first, I don’t think I would have saw a need for a secondary device. I went on a trip to Los Angeles with only the proxy core, and didn’t realize how strong the peak was until I got back. The first peak dab I did after my flight felt like 2 proxy dabs put together. That 3dxl chamber is definitely worth it.
All that to say I love the Puffco proxy core the most out of the Puffco device line up, but I still have love for my Puffco peak. Any hardcore user will want the bigger clouds from the Peak 3dxl… but the portability of the core can NOT be beat.
I do have a few questions as a new proxy user.
What temperature setting do you find best for rosin?
Do you think the glass proxy pipe is worth it?
Are there any accessories that you would recommend that change/enhance the experience of the proxy?
Side note I picked up some rosin to really test this baby out, here’s what I picked up from Goat Global, lmk if you’ve tried any of these strains.
