what temps do you guys use your mighty at?
I'm still on the fence about getting a Mighty.
I use my Solo 2 at max temp (220C) as I aim for complete extraction. How is it that the Mighty can fully extract at only 210C compared to slightly higher max temps on other vaporizers? It obviously is a great vaporizer that does a great job, but how can it be more efficient than my Solo 2 when it doesn't get quite as hot? What am I missing here?
I'm so confused...but I WANT one of these!!!!

You won't have any extraction issues. If that's the feature that's holding you back, don't sweat it. I've never been able to get visible vapor from Mighty ABV in a high-temp AC desktop vape. I don't really know how, but the Mighty achieves full extraction pretty much every time.I'm still on the fence about getting a Mighty.

It's just that it's engineered to work at those temps. If you go back and read posts here, you will see lots of mighty pics showing complete extraction. And you will read that no one has issues with complete extraction of herbs.
Having said that, I'd like a mighty that did get hotter for concentrates, but it's (shredder rating) a 9.5 for herb and a 9 for concentrates.
OK, fair enough. Thank you for your responses. I guess the design/configuration has a lot to do with it.What is at slightly higher temps? The heater? The herb? I don't know the answer to your question, but most of the theory of DDaves Mods has to do with changing the temp of the herb by bringing it closer to the heater in certain vapes. At least for the Mod I got (EQ), it works. I had to turn down the vape's temperature setting once I got everything set up properly to get the same results I got from higher temperature settings previous to the mod.
Well I came here casue I got fed up of people saying that smoking joints is better and I wanted to be around my own kind. It's also pretty pricey but TBH I wouldn't bother with other brands cause S&B engineer their stuff so well, they're the innovators and the market leaders.
I just wish there was a way to try these things out first, it's about the same price as the cano
I make these to have options on load size.
My smallest one takes 0.05, the half size one takes about 0.1-0.12 depending on grind and how packed it is. I save a full capsule for special occasions.
Not at all, that is about the perfect amount you can fit in a capsule with a liquid pad. Ill find the post I wrote about it.
Mmmh ... that seems promising!
You list the Grasshopper as a member of your vaping ensemble. I read it is a great choice for small dosages - but being a non-smoker my throat is rather sensitive - is it true that the vapor is harsh?
Would you say that the Crafty is a good choice instead of the Mighty if my sessions are very short - given that I will mostly use it alone?
I also have both and if I had to pick only one to keep it would be the Mighty. Love my GH, but the Mighty is a true timex watch....just very workman like with great extraction, no complications, pretty cool vapor, and it shows up for work everyday.Mmmh ... that seems promising!

It's due to the Mighty being a Hybrid vaporizer, which in a sense means it uses convection and conduction. For big clouds packing it down allows for more conduction thus, it creates bigger clouds .I am curious why when i tamp the full bowl down a bit i seem to get much better hits, when i leave a full bowl fairly loose i dont get as good of hits as when i tamp it down and a bit tighter.

I often put my GH through water, but an alternative is GH through a J-hook (Sherlock?)
Yeah less surface area for the oil/vapor to stick to.I am pretty close to buying the mighty wpa V3, i have an older version, and it works pretty good cuz i stuck it into my lil black plastic pinnacle wpa that came with my hydrotube (i have never even owned a Pinnacle pro) anyways that has worked pretty good cuz it makes a nicer seal on my glass than the silicone mighty adapter. But i am excited about this V3 cuz you can remove the CU altogether which should create larger hits i would think.
Now I'm a few years into owning what is probably a very early mighty (serial #000295)
Pass-through use and charging has never worked on this unit.
It still works perfectly, and I have to say no other vape I have tried can actually perfectly vape different grinds/dryness's of herbs in the same bowl correctly.
Old/new dry/moist fine/coarse It just doesn't care and manages to vape it all evenly when you pack mix bowls which is nothing short of amazing IMO. I can't do that in any other vape.
My battery has been abused and I have never really spent any time working on keeping the battery healthy, not that you really can in a device which cannot remove the battery. If its bad for battery's you name it I've done it to this thing. I currently get 5-6 bowls off a charge instead of the 7-8ish when it was new, so it is beginning to show its age but 2+ years is good enough to purchase the battery replacement from S&B.
I run @ 401 deg Fahrenheit, in the last 2 months the bowl has started to tarnish from silver to brownish. I'll try an ISO wipe to fix that.
The cooling unit is ok, but it is a pain to maintain to me. I simply do not want to do it often and if you let if go to far it becomes a massive task to clean it all. I also made the mistake of topping bowls with hash and the CU became hash filled (pack hash in the center of the bowl now.) During cleaning on the CU I accidentally broke a piece of fin off the base part near the fatter thicker cu end, this resulted in a bit more direct draw and hotter vape which I happen to like more actually.
The mighty does not preform that well through water IMO, even with muz-mod.
All in all It is defiantly a killer piece of equipment, but what really makes it shine is how consistent and simple it is while being durable and stable. Throw any herb in it and puff away, no technique it's the perfect simplicity vape suited for vaping while working on other tasks.
