Sources and notes
XMAX V3 Pro
No separate maker page was found. The only official source is the Planet of the Vapes product page, which sells the device under its own POTV XMAX name, so it acts as both the brand page and the retailer. Heat-up: the page says tasty vapor in under 30 seconds, which is not an exact figure, so heatUpSeconds is null. Price: $109.95 on that page. The page also lists a newer V4 Pro at $129.95 with a hybrid heater; this entry covers the V3 Pro only.
Arizer Air MAX
Price: the struck-through original is $219.99 and the current price is $153.99. MSRP set to $219.99 (the list price, matching the PAX Mini choice). Heat-up: 'less than 60 seconds' to 220 °C with a full battery at 24 °C ambient; 60 is the bound. Heating type not stated; the page says rapid-heating ceramic. The page markup also contains Solo III feature blocks; those were not used. Weight not on the page.
Prices are list prices on the maker's US site when checked; sales change them often. Heat-up times are the maker's own claims.
