do you use bubller for this to happen or it a common failure on the mightys?

Yep the Mighty housing will crack with regular use of the water adapter. You put your mighty upside down into a glass pipe and now those little plastic pieces are at the whim of a lot of torque. It's not a matter of if but when.

I'm not sure what the normal life span of the plastic with the stock cooling unit is.

Aluminium housing yes yes yes the easyflows grinding down the top of mine it only works one way 5mm clockwise sometimes it just refuses and it takes 20sec. But its still better than a plastic cu they can say what they like plastics a nasty material with its days numbered.

In 200 years they will call us the plastic cancer generations like the victorians and the smog. Unless @JCat can get a aluminium clone housing and when he changes the battery use a aluminium housing.

Who clones a aluminium mould tho does it work that way? S&B could do it but as i said plastics an accepted thing sadly so they have no incentive.

I think the only adapter that poses risk is the Easy Flow adapter, which comes with it's own cautions about overtightening. Several folks have modified theirs with a dremel tool to minimize the risk. Could also be done with a file.
There are certainly other adapters available that work, some may work better than than EF, while not posing a risk to the Mighty housing.
Then there's the good old Muzzmod, which is a near perfect solution, but not an easy diy to get just right.
And, so, today's front runner has to be the V3 from Delta3dstudios.

Which water adapter are you referring to? I just got the V3 from Delta 3D


The one from PuffItUp

If I'm not mistaken, this is the same piece marketed elsewhere as the Easy Flow.
I don't think they've ever worked out the problem with the potential to over-torque putting tension on Mighty/Crafty housing.
This adapter also leaves considerable space between the top of chamber and the adapter's screen and a lot of folk's report they have to fill the gap, like with an oil pad or extra screen in order to hold material in place.

EDIT; I notice that PIU is also selling an "H2O mouthpiece" that's an in-line bubbler fitted to Mighty/Crafty with what appears to be the same plastic mount that the Easy Flow employs. While I love the concept (I sometimes use a hydratube with muzzmod as adapter) I think there should be red flags about this attaching to top of this breakage-prone part of the vape. This is only my opinion, I've not actually tried the Easy Flow or this H2O thingy. They may work fine, but fair warning is in order about being very cautious.

Will you please let us know how you like it?

Good thing you paid less than $100 for it, oh hang on that's the Vivant Alternate.
Too bad the new Tera had so much trouble, it may have got S&B R&D guys to get off their lazy arses and do a proper update of the Mighty, how about a nice aluminium housing to set you apart from all the plastic stuff getting around, too late, even a cheap ass Starry has a metal body and user replaceable batteries.
we need to request it, aluminum would not be good because of heat but for example ceramic zirconia... or even just dumb bumper sleeve and reinforcement of the cu area would help

hey everyone I just want to ask did anybody from eu got mighty rma done and got replacement? how long it did take to turn around nowadays? thank you

Maybe you got a lemon, was your box whitish color or blue + orange? contact your retailer. Its the best move, maybe you wont even need to send it

I checked out this new M and oh my it is beautiful. Correct me If Im wrong but it seems to me that, haptic feedback/vibration is located more towards the upper parts of the unit and it is much more subtle vibration. The whole part around the chamber was improved to stainless steel from aluminum which was used before(now it looks like a fuckin mirror shining in its all majesty. :D the locking mechanism of the housing seems to be improved, the mouthpiece clicks... heatuptimes seems the same. The auto turn off seems to be highly improved in its draw sensitivity. Package advertises 20% + battery +1up one capsule, hopefully the sturdiness of the plastic housing is improved. The seal around the chamber seems little bit different. I all did in vape critics voice in my head :D

I wonder if somebody would make portable vape with same heating element as that one used in herbalizer :D

ceramic zirconia body or wooden one would be even better

Hope you enjoy it !:)) What a beatiful panther :D do you enjoy the glass mouthpiece over the regular one? I lost the little silicone piece and cant find the replacement


Im also wondering why people are using water adaptors, I use simple dhgate chinese arizer extreme q 18mm whip adaptor which is sturdy as f/ I dont know about the original arizer ones, so this adaptor, fitted to a waterpiece + little piece of some health/food grade silicone tubing.
You can see the vapor traveling from cu to mighty, mighty had fallen of to ground many times but mainly because of my fault. Im now wondering how much working days approx took shipping, last time I sended mighty for rma it was smooth until it was taken by ups.
ups was transporting for 17 working days, I believe it will go smoother this time and that I would get it sooner.
btw this is your first rma?

Because they can completely eliminate the cooling unit from the process. It's not needed because water cools and conditions (adds moisture) to the vaper. Why lose goodies to become condensate in the c/u when you don't have to?
That said, I sometimes do it in a way quite similar to the way you're describing...
