The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

[Mr. Me2]

Cool thanks- Just shot them over a msg, I'll let you know once they have gotten back to me.
Might try the cotton for the Herb as well- a video I watched on youtube suggested using the liqud pad on top of herb as well as it prevents the cooling unit from ever getting dirty at all-might be a worthwhile trade-off if the amount of bud I have to sacrifice isn't too much?

Here's a suggestion I prefer instead of the liquid pad.

Take a regular pipe screen, and cut a wedge out of it so it looks like pac man. Pull th 2 edges together and it will form a small cone. Press that on top of your load. It acts as a spacer the same way the liquid pad does, is much easier (and lasts longer), and helps keep the cu clean.

I've been using this method in my Crafty after trying (and not liking) the liquid pad. People here really seem to like the dosing capsules, though...

 

[MinnBobber]

I'm not a great fan of liquid pad on top of bud, but it works and some like it.

You can also cut/fit a screen to just sit on top of bud in chamber, as an extra bud barrier.

Small cotton on top works with minor downside for me. The ABV (already been vaped herb) kind of sticks to it, gets embedded in it. Fine if you toss your ABV but a little cumbersome if you save your ABV and either lose a little ABV or mess with picking out the herb.

You're new here so FYI, many save their ABV for making cannabis infused oils etc as it still has goodies in it

So like a mini dunce's cone for the herb ? Will try it out

Defo just answered my next question of what ABV is and why people would save it !
Probs not a worry for me at the moment as I'm trying to be discrete, and can pass off the Mighty as 'another e-cig mod'

You got it! The pointy end down goes into the oven.

Thank you for the new capsule caddy, but only holds 4? Should be 6 or 8 for the Mighty

 

[t-dub]

New from S&B . . . They make a liquid version but its the same and just comes with some Liquid Pads as well.

I want one arrr....

 

[Gregg K]

I'm vaping my brains out. I love this thing!

Also, it seems to favor large bowl fulls. I like to start taking a hit at 175C, and keep taking it until it hits 190C. The taste. The everything.

 

[radiant34]

idk why theyre making all these nonsensical accessories. they should be working on their build/warranty quality.

 

[blackstone]

This caddy is kinda what I thought might hold them best first, like a tube.
But after some time with the caps, I now wonder wouldn't loose lids come flying off in a mess when you try to empty this? (might work better for those who dispose each cap, tight lids)
Or would it only work well if 4 caps in all times, full or empty, unless you keep it upright and stable?
BTW I subjected my magazine to heavy vibration the other day and the caps lost some mats inside, which then got lost in the wind.
Don't know if this caddy would do better, I suppose it's ok-ish priced so could be worth a go.

I did a number of full and half bowls at the start but then became fixated on the subject at the top of this page, finding the best way to micro dose this thing!
So lately I tried full again for fun, and I realized that the mats I had were pretty strong at the time holy shit!
But yeah, that is some blow alright.
It made me wonder could I have these full bowls, but just two or five a day, instead of 10 or 20 tiny portions a day!

They make some of us buy 2!! It is a sharp head of marketing there now, I wouldn't be surprised if they came out with a cheaper Mighty, but with a knob and no screen!

Oh, I think there will a new portable from S&B by Thanksgiving. This is just my guess...

I was so afraid to buy the Mighty 7 months ago in case they soon released a sexy new combo of compactness with huge battery life!
Not so sure now, if only for the fact that they might continue with the Mighty Medic, as that approval probably costs a bomb?
Wonder if they would use all titanium or something now instead of plasti-resin?
Surely it would heat up in less than 20 sec!! to keep up with the jones.
Maybe if they invent a super battery for the Crafty, and reprogram the heat up time, wouldn't that do you?!
I always think of DaVinci when the question of who's due a new vape comes up!
The Ascent was around Oct 2013,
and the Mighty, Crafty and Arizer Air were around a year later from what I can research.

My friend that day has come! DaVinci just announced their new vape, called the IQ It's due out end of month. Go join the IQ thread for more info...

With the Pax 3, and DaVinci IQ, and FF2, the time is ripe for a new S&B to drop. Until then, loving my new Mighty! Yes, a new Crafty/Mighty with removable batteries would certainly be a great start...

Hi everyone! First post:I joined as I've been lurking on the forum for the last couple of days, trying to learn what I can about the 'Mighty' whilst waiting on the mailman to get here
Bit about me: In the UK
This is my first ever vaporizer, moved to e-cigs about two years ago, and had thought it was time to give up tobacco completely as it ruins my throat,lungs ,mood now. Got a couple of questions that I hope you can help me with, I've either not found the answer from searching or just want to be extra-sure as I'm worried about messing up such an expensive machine.

1.) Plugged it in as soon as I received it and it was fully charged-normal?
2.)Still waiting on some Blue Cheese, so all I've got is some Lebanese red pollen hash.
3.)Having no bud to make a sandwich (and wanting pure hashish taste anyway) and only having one liquid pad for now- I'm reluctant to cut it up as suggested, so I'm going to try the cotton technique (thin layer-hash-thin layer).
4.) Do I need to crumble the hash and spread it finely on the cotton- or can i just sit a lil nugget on there?
5.)Would 'Cotton Bacon' - an e-cig vaping cotton be fine for this?
6.)or would it be easier to just stick it on top of the liquid-pad (also same question about what to do to the hash).
Thanks in advance
Highland UK

Re questions
1 - Yes this normal (some times, nothing to worry about)
2- Cheese - Yuk
3, 4, 5, I haven't a clue what you're talking about!!
6- Yes

Sorry in a rush, but hope this helps, good luck, will be back l8r!!

Pure Peace

Welcome to FC Highland_UK!
You gonna love this place!

So, about your questions :

1) yep that's normal, mine was full too.
2) Make sure to put the liquid pad, and enjoy this wonderful red libanese!
3)Make sure you're using organic cotton and not one with nasty stuff inside. You could look to degumed hemp fiber, it's awesome!
4)I think it's better if it's crumble, increasing the contact surface, but experiment yourself you can't go wrong with the mighty
5)I don't know about that as I don't use ecig.
6) The liquid pad works really good, preventing the material to leak. As for the crumble or not, again experiment with a tiny piece but I think that crumble will lead to the best results.

 

[mas300]

I have been micro-dosing (0.1 g) for a while and recently discovered the dosing capsules. They work great for small loads, but often material goes up through the dosing cap top and into the CU which can be a pain to clean.

To prevent this I use a dosing liquid pad on top of a micro-load. This solution works perfectly and there is no noticeable difference in taste and only a slight increase in draw resistance. The CU stays practically completely clean too.

One more positive and unexpected benefit is that the vaped material more uniform in color than without the liquid pad and even less material is needed to get the desired effects. I guess this is because conduction effects are increased with added contact and more uniform heating with the pad.

Hi TheVaporist, thanks for the warm welcome and answering all the questions
So through trial and error, I'm not sure where I stand with the Hash in the mighty at the moment- still working out: how much to put, how to crumble etc.
I put some on the liquidpad last night and a few bits have just melted and got stuck inside the wires of the liquidpad itself! Does this make it unusable now? Still got the desired effects, but haven't got the satisfactions of the flavour quite right yet. I guess with vaporizers, you don't really get the satisfaction of smoke/vapor hitting the back of your throat.





@Trypsy Summers
Appreciate the response whilst you were pressed for time. MinnBobber also recommended the degummed hemp fiber and I'm in the process of having a little scout for it in the UK.
Not a fan of Cheese? An old favourite of mine, along with Jack Herrer- other favourites/recommendations are welcome. (Not sure if explicit discussion of this sort of things are allowed-If not, I'll delete this post)

 

[Vifzor]

ok thx for answer

 

[Mr. Me2]

Hey guy's my mighty stopped working, probably because of water inside, should i mention it for making the guaranty work or just send it normally for guaranty without giving much information?

Water will likely void the warranty...

 

[vapviking]

ok thx for answer

We've heard that there's a sensor inside, like many cell phones have, to detect exposure to water.
I suggest not telling them what the problem might be, only that it's not working and you love it and really wish that it were.
Good luck!

If you found that your liquid pad is dirty, just soak it in ethanol (or iso) brush it and it will be clean
In case you doesn't know, hash need a higher temp than flower so don't be afraid to push the beast!
Although don't overfill with the concentrate in order to avoid leaks, less is more

The mighty is really flavorful, of course it depends on the material but don't try to replicate the smoking experience. Smoke is really hot, full of combustion by-product and you'll never experience that again with a vaporizer. Of course you can take giant, potent thick cloud of vapor but it doesn't compete in the same world.

You're in the dream world of pure vapor now, let the combustion days behind you and go to the moon in a giant cloud!

Cool, good to know- this is one learning curve I'm going to enjoy experiencing.

 

[Pharoh]

My dog chewed my Mighty up pretty good...It still functions...I want to send it in and get a new body and cooling unit...Anybody got any idea what it will cost and turn around..i filled out request for service on Storz & Bickel....haven't heard back from them...thanks!

Yeah it just one of those week's and today n tomorrow is just GO GO GO, but anyway, yeah you'll love that Mighty, I know that we did, even though its currently back at the vendor (awaiting some kinda shout from S & B) before they send it on to them for repair/replace! Even though I rarely got to use it, my significant other claimed it as soon as it arrived (even though I paid for it,) I was assigned the Crafty, which as portables go is fine, the only gripe with the Crafty is that the battery is just fuckery!

I find that even tho the bowls are the same the Mighty seems to extract more, i.e. the Crafty doesn't last as long as the Mighty and the other fall back is that the Crafty is stuck on two temps (unless you have a smartphone) whereas the Mighty has a variable (digital) control which is very easy to use.

If you want the 'authentic' throat burner, you need to roll with a Plenty or even the EVO, as that, with out the Hydratube, can burn your 'throat out' as can the Volcano set on (230C) the higher temps.

As for Cheese, get me right, if you love it good for you, (or anyone else), but there ain't no way in the universe, you'll get me acknowledging it as anything other than foul tasting crap, and, I don't mean shit, I mean fucking crap, I just can't get why people rave over that obnoxious crap, I don't mean no offence, but 'Cheese' is just not doing it me, the strength ain't all that, and the taste OMG!

I could write for hours on how much I detest it, On the other hand, Jack Herer, is very nice, its kinda respectable in every sense, a good grow, a great vape, it's medicinal, and recreational! What's not to like? It's kinda like White Widow, now to me those are great * OG strains, as is Skunk#1, NL#5, Haze, Durban, PPP, etc.

Yeah now look what you've got me doing!, Lol, I gotta be gone....

*OG as in 'Original Godmother' (or is that Good-mother), strain.

PPS Sorry to any cheese lovers, no offence meant, its just I cannot stand that strain, I just hope it never comes to the day that its my only option - cos that day would quite possibly be my penultimate day!!lol

Not saying, just saying without saying

Pure Peace

Haha ,triggered! it's always good to have strong opinions! No offence taken, as far as Cheese goes, It's one of the strains with a lot of sentimental value for me- as it was for a good period-one of the 'easy to get' reliable high grade strains where I was(uk). Agree with your other ratings as well, although I'll have to look into 'Durban' as I'm not familiar with it.
I hope your S.O gets the Mighty back soon, I guess I'll have to experiment/get used to the mighty first before I consider anything else-still very much in the honeymoon phase and figuring out what goes where etc!
