Obviously if there is a menu to change the dial setting, not all devices are exactly the same. So to claim that some people need to bump up the temps because they aren't drawing correctly, using the wrong variety, or grinding wrong are just guessing... I have 27 strains to use, I've built thousands of coils in my life and I've tried many different draw techniques and grinds. My device just need to be set between 6.5 and 8 to get any vapor, while others never go above 6... it's a pretty simple concept that they either have different resistances or they were calibrated different. Which could be a result of a different resistance. If they were all identical they would all work identically out of the box, which they don't.

I have one problem with my TinyMight. I’d love to hear some suggestions before I go and make probably a mistake and sell it.

the problem is: this is too powerful vape! I’m microdosing and I’ve used to vape 0.025-0.05g with my VapCap. I think it’s not that easy to vape that small amount with TM.

I purchased it because I thought I can load something like 0.5g to it and then take a hit now and then but this is so powerful vape that it vaporizes everything so fast that it’s quite impossible to use it for microdosing that way.

I hope I explained my problem well enough. Thanks in advance
For me when I want to take very small hits I press the button and wait for it to heat up. Buzzes. Draw and almost immediately release the button and continue inhaling until the vapor stops.

It dilutes your draw(with normal air) and stretches your load.

Also something I want to try soon is mixing my weed with other dried herbs.

Maybe these tips would work for you

Just so all those new to this vape know, the above picture is labeled by @SquirrelMaster as really silly for with a convection based stem vape if you do not want to stir your herbs, you are better off only packing as deep as the stem is wide. Packing as illustrated in this picture may not yield very good vapor, will absolutely require lots of stirring and will likely result in premature shitty flavor.

I'll have to do another one of these tonight and report back but the experience was pretty good as far as I can remember. Definitely a few stirs were required. If I would have started at a higher temp then the flavour would have really gone to shit quickly. Starting low saved me in that regard.

I did that a few months ago now so I think I'm due for another so I can give a more clear account of how exactly it went.

yeah you've got some other good tips so far, but for starters use the little basket screen in front of the cooling unit at the very edge of the stem. If you then load into that by sucking up like a straw, it should not be more than .05g like you are used to. Also I don't know what temp setting you were using, but I often start below level 3 even, temp stepping each hit by .5 typically... You can also try loading even less, just enough to cover the screen, and turn it up to 6 or 8 for one big hit too (one hitter style) and everything in between. I know it's difficult to test extensively with such a low tolerance, but since it's still early try to spend a little more time with it and see if you can find a usage style that works for you!

It's not necessarily true, because there is so much variance in individual users, how they use and load, some may need it hotter for their style... I'm sure the manufacturer can put this to bed if you want to email them and ask? :2c:

i think the same. i get big clouds at 6. normally 8 or 9 is big enough. but i alwys inhale with 9 or 10 to get all out of the herb

I cannot imagine that there are significant differences, if any. i have two units and both work as the same

Totally guessing on my part, no doubt (also I didn't say those were „wrong“, but just variables). But I don't need to guess when it comes to the resistance of the coil. When I'm building a coil using for example a 28 GA (.32mm ⌀) wire the resistance may fluctuate by some hundreth of an Ω, maybe even even a tenth. When using a 26 GA (.40mm ⌀) wire I will get the same resistance every time and there's no fluctuation at all. The coil of the TM is *much much* bigger and has much more mass which results in a very narrow fluctuation range, most probably well below the level we can notice.

anybody knows from which material the ring is which holds the screen above the oven?

According to the weight I'm pretty sure it's stainless steel.

all a matter of taste and preferences of how the herb works on the body

uh, that's a huge leaping statement to make. You just claimed that everyone giving variable ranges their device works in (some as low as 3-5) are just a matter of taste and personal effects?? You guys are just making shit up now.. My device doesn't produce any vapor at all below 5.

Is it possible they are not all the same length? There's obviously something configured differently for people to be getting varying results. And blaming the user's use is not a valid argument. There's too much of a difference for that to be true. Maybe it's something with the board configuration itself?

Well given all the reports in here, and my own experience, it certainly sounds like yours is defective if you can't get vapor below level 5... Sure there can be other variables like that as well, but yeah sounds like yours is not working properly at all then? I would reach out...

i am not sure if first sight of vapour at what # has actually been discussed that much (i may have forgotten). i feel we read a lot about preferences, but that is not the same. personally i start seeing vapour around 4ish, but it doesnt really get going before 5. and that is after boosting my heater. but i still find the high end of the scale too hot for regular use, so i dont really worry there is any defect with my unit. it just needs to be hot right? my best guess is that different strains could make a significant difference. i recently picked up some cbd, and it might just be a bad buy, but it is really hard to get any vapour from that at all. at any number.

it works great between 6-9, so maybe I need to calibrate mine down 3 with that special menu. I'll reach out to them.

I don't see any blaming here.

I was referencing when you said performance was based on the user. I didn't mean blame in a super negative way, I could have worded it differently.

sorry, of course I meant for all devices that are intact and not defective. honestly I only tried about 2 times at temperatures of 5-6. I will test again next time and will report if necessary. but clearly if there is no steam at all, let's say 5, it is strange

but the unit begins at 4 not 3 says manual if I am not wrong

Mine says "Setting the tempurature: There is a tempurature setting dial (4) on the back panel, start with 6."

So they told me to start with 6 and they were right, that's when I start getting visible vapor.

Yeah herbs are a huge factor, but I can get visible vapor below level 3... very thin and tasty, get more at 3 and above, I typically temp step by .5 and I get nice vapor on each hit with a wide variety of herbs and strains... I do like to take long hits at the low settings too, and how much you load is a factor, but I typically don't load much more than a .1g if even.

it works great between 6-9, so maybe I need to calibrate mine down 3 with that special menu. I'll reach out to them.

Yeah there are some universals, but sometimes it is tricky to objectively compare performance... Like your herbs are a huge factor aside from technique, let us know what they tell you! If you have a range you're good

So for me things get serious at around 6, meaning that's the level where the TM starts producing those dense & huge clouds it's known for, but I do get enjoyable (and, for what it's worth, visible) vapor at around 4ish. Below 4 is a bit too wispy for my liking, but I honestly think that's just me, I'm sure others will even like it that way. 8 is my typical finishing setting. So I find a pretty wide range the TM offers to be within an enjoyable range.

„Great between 6-9“ actually sounds totally okay to me... Pretty typical temp range for many of us.

you are right my manual says too start with 6. so i think all is good :) or? when you have steam at six

I should clarify, I can actually get considerably thick clouds at level 3 or below, first hits no less, but that is with this usage style: (medium fine ground lemon meringue, probably under .1g)

IMG-20200507-133145620.jpg


When using the cooling unit, it makes sense to start higher, as you may see thinner vapor (perhaps losing some in the cooling unit when starting that low) but I still enjoy milking the low temps. I also often load less when I'm using the cooling unit, so that also means less clouds.

Point being without the cooling unit and a decent load, I can get fairly thick hits even at level 3 (thinner yet still visible vapor through the cooling unit too), and those flavors, my word!

Bumping up to 5 or 6 sooner, can choke me with vapor, through the cooling unit... Temp stepping from low, I typically won't get much more out of finishing at 8 instead of 6.5 in my experience.

yes that makes sense. i remember a noticeable difference when using the grav stem without cu. i forgot about that. i am still hoping for different cooling stem options like that, without cu, because flavour and .. texture? of vapour is just different. the lower temps work much better with the grav stem for me, possibly more vapour, have to check now i suppose. i just dont care for the wobble that mine has. really looking forward to more stem options.

So here I am enjoying my second bowl and starting to understand (grok) the ui of TinyMighty (possible new nickname). First off i love the small rotary dial on the bottom and how easy it is to turn and set. Super clever and well executed.

I get small puffs of vapor and full flavor at 3 and the second hit at 3 has vapor. Nice and cool with great flavor.

The last hits are between 8 - 10. Warmer but not hot. The cooling unit seems to be doing an outstanding job. The mouth piece and vapor is not hot like other vapes. I like it.

I use on-demand mode (red blinking led). The body gets warm after 4 hits but not hot. Even after taking a hit at 9 - I can touch all parts of the vape (nothing burning).

The feel is remarkable. Solid. No jingling parts or pieces. Tapered design feels great in may hands. For a man I have very small hands so it's really a good fit. The fire button is outstanding. I love how integrated all the parts are!! Nothing sticks out randomly. Super design. Aesthetic is perfect for me: simple, clean lines, great materials, and what looks to be superior workmanship.

All in all a favorite. Compact, solid, well-design and executed, and what cool flavor. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

It's a good thing to email the maker. I think you need this caibration and you'll be very pleased.
I had one of the first batch TM and it was like yours. I was quite disapointed because i wasn't getting the performances others were reporting. After like 2 weeks trying to see if it was down to technique, i could be certain it wasn't so emailed the maker and sent my unit back to him. He emailed me that he just uped the calibration and when i got my TM back it was almost night and day. Finally i could see the law temp clouds and take very short draws (in general clouds were denser and bigger)
I don't think some technique is required to get very good results with the TM, although i agree there are some little things to take into account to get the very best out of it.
And even with more or less low quality material (illegal state here) i manage to get visible vapor under 5 with quite short draws.

I think that’s at least part of the reason there’s a hidden menu option to adjust the temperature range. You can apparently adjust it by the equivalent of +/-3 numbers on the dial, and it sounds like some people do need that to get good performance at lower settings.

Will someone elaborate further on this calibration. Hidden menu? +/- 3 to get good performance at lower settings? :hmm:
