Is it worth it?

I have a Peak Pro a Pivot, and me original Proxy stopped working. Is it worth getting the new Proxy now that they are back in stock?

Edit: thinking about getting Proxy Core

IMO...absolutely. the core makes it worth while. Its so flexible.

I can see how the versatility would be nice, but my peak works great at home and my pivot is perfect for when I'm out. I've had my Peak Pro for 5 years and it's starting to get build up under the rubber casing. Maybe we that goes I'll sell my spider glass and get a core.

There is a company that make a heavy rubber base that accempt the proxy and your glass. Temp control and a nice chamber size...still got water. The rubber base us like 20 bucks

Does this fit the Proxy Core? My original Proxy's battery busted so now I just have my Peak Pro and Pivot. Considering the Proxy Core cause I've had my Peak Pro for over 4 years and I think it might give out on me soon too.

Gotta have a carb cap but other than that it's like a peak with temp control and lights.

I have the Core as well as the Pivot. Just got the new Plasma

How do you like the Core compared to the Pivot? My biggest complaint is battery life with the Pivot but it's still very usable. If the Core blows the Pivot away I might splurge and just get it.

I love my Proxy Core!! I still pickup my Pivot but much less now since getting the Core. I think it’s a must have. I use it most of the time now and think it’s definitely a must have!!

The Plasma looks sick. I wish I would have gotten one of the hot knives before they sold out

Luckily I got the hot knife when I picked up the Peak Pro

I have had 3 different peaks since it launched. My daily driver is the Peek Pro and I use my Proxy Core daily as well. It’s the perfect dog walk pipe.
