Today we will take a quick look at the recently updated Ares Plus E-Rig from Waxmaid. Currently, Waxmaid sells flower pipes, water pipes, reclaim/ash catchers, nectar collectors, grinders, and other dabbing accessories. We have previously reviewed their Traveler Water Bottle Pipe here, Ares here, and One-Hitter Dugout here. Currently, the Waxmaid Ares electronic dab rig runs for a full retail price of $119.99 on their website. We will detail our experience objectively as always in our non-affiliate reviews. For this review, let’s check out the new and improved features of the Waxmaid Ares Plus.
Pros:
Simple, easy-to-use design
Excellent strength
Easy maintenance
Discreet size
Fair price
Cons:
None
Recommendations: None

While most of the features remain similar, the new additional features of the Ares Plus improve upon their previous Ares model
The only significant update for the Waxmaid Ares Plus is its much wider range of temperature control. Instead of being limited to only two fixed temperature settings on the previous Ares model, the Waxmaid Ares Plus now has three new sets of temperature ranges: Low (450-550F), Medium (550-650), High (650-750).

When opening the rugged travel-ready case, you will find the following:
3000mAh Ares battery
backup quartz atomizer
stainless steel dab tool
cleaning brush
A set of 4 Q-tips
carb cap
carb cap belt
glass cup
honeycomb water percolator
silicone glass container
USB charging cable
instruction manual
extra silicone mouthpiece
Most live resin sauces, badders, and budders are best enjoyed between the lowest temperature setting for best flavor and the medium temperature setting for stronger potency/thicker clouds. Most live resin diamonds, diamond sauces, and live rosin badder are also perfectly fine at the medium heat setting. Shatter and larger-sized diamonds are ideal at the highest setting, but not completely necessary. While most of the accessories remain the same, the only new accessory that has been added to the Are Plus kit is an extra detachable green and black silicone mouthpiece.450-550°FgreenLive resin sauce, badder, budder550-650°FblueLive resin diamonds, live diamond sauce, live rosin badder650-750°FyellowShatter, larger-sized diamonds

Using the Waxmaid Ares Plus for best results:

Screw the atomizer onto the top of the battery
Assemble the carb cap onto the atomizer using the belt included in the kit
Insert the water percolator onto the bottom of the battery
Fill the glass bubbler with water slightly below halfway full, just above the surface of the honeycomb water percolator

Overall, I would recommend the Ares Plus over their previous model for its updated temperature settings
Prior to this review, having only two fixed temperature settings felt limited on the previous Ares model. However, they have improved its temperature control by offering three new sets of temperature ranges. As a result, the much more reasonably-priced Ares Plus is a significant improvement upon the previous model. You can purchase the Ares Plus on their official website for $119.99 here.
