RMA process is a little different now I think. I emailed Oakland asking what to do and for a label and they directed me to www.storz-bickel.com/service which asked for my SN/purchase date/price/location. It then sends you an email with a link to view your RMA status. They're reviewing mine now it says.

I posted this back in July...

After seeing your post I thought I would give it another try and my opinion has changed, I think my problem the first time was I kept the original screen and added the dome screen, this time I just used the dome and the results were just as good as the pacman screen but with the bonus of the screen being fixed making loading/unloading easier, so I think using two screens when I first tried it gave worse results, it's still a little fiddly to fit the screen but I guess the normal screen isn't all that easy either.

... Of course, your post made me try to find the ideal screen to put directly on the CU
I previously used the liquid pad in place of the CU screen

@High ,
Thanks for sharing, and it does reflect a new system in place, but it's been said here that S&B really frown on reprinting emails, etc., to the point of talking about legal action. Coming from me this is second hand news, though it has been talked about here.

Got an end of year bonus today....daddy wants a new toy but is having troubles justifying this especially having the Mighty. The idea of having desktop quality hits in my pocket seems very awesome though

I'm mulling on it. Think I'm going to the casino with some mates today, which should firmly make a decision for me by the end of the night :lol:

Ive been playing alot of online poker and someone just recognized my picture which was the crafty lol.

Just a few updates, just got my crafty about a month ago clocking about 46 hours and it hasnt shown any slower heat up time. But ive been using much of my battery staying on higher temps for too long, vaping the oil i collect from my CU. Hopefully that doesnt degrade the life of my Crafty. Anybody else staying too long at boost?

I used to get overheating messages from the app, and sometimes the Crafty would shut down until it cooled a bit. (light would blink as if battery was depleted, but it could power on again after a few minutes. Had 3 Craftys. Now, Mighty shows none of that behavior (at 2-1/2 months of all day use).

Consider yourself lucky.... hard for me to believe myself, but it would be great if you could let us know the time from 20c to 180c. If it's longer than a couple of minutes it has slowed.

0. Is 50mg of DMT placed on the Liquid Pad for someone comfortable with the experience a good starting point? Is that all you do, place DMT on the Liquid Pad and turn the Crafty on?

1. What sub $50 milligram scale do you recommend to measure DMT?

2. Until a milligram scale can be secured, perhaps empty-capsules sold at vitamin stores can be used instead seeing as NO STORE in town carries milligram scales accurate below 0.1g which is 100mg (way too much). Which empty capsule size could be used to measure DMT?

3. What temperature should the Crafty be set on for DMT, 150°C, 180°C?

Not something I've used before and it's not really been discussed here that I know of.

You might get more response asking here...

Or maybe the answers you need are already there, either way welcome to FC and good luck :tup:

Little update from me, 66 hours and still going strong, tough the housing broke and I cant use my vapefiend wpa. Today I cleaned the whole inside screen with the Mr.Proper thingy, looks like new!

Not using the Crafty as I used too because I bought an E-Nano as my desktop vape, I'm using the Crafty only outdoors and when I'm chilling downstairs.

Would you please post the best way to clean the Crafty after DMT use, knowing that the odor may still last no matter how it's cleaned, still, what is the best way to clean it after DMT use?

Not a cleaning tip, but I have a RYOT case for my Crafty. It's smell proof...

Personally I just take my CU (cooling unit/top piece) apart and soak it in 99.8% ISO for 30-45 mins then rinse with warm water, and from time to time a little magic eraser on the bowl when dirty.

This is after use with herb but I guess cleaning after DMT would be the same process, but as I've never used it I'm just guessing here.

Does it smell so bad after DMT?
Whenever you use dmt out of anything. The piece usually keeps sone of that molecule smell. It woukd be better to use it out of a vape you done use much, or just to dab it on a nail or a little pen.

Thank you for that excellent video link.
He says the top screen pretty much has to be replaced instead of cleaned because once you take it out it bends, irreparably. So it was a good idea to order those extra screens from the manufacturer but who else sells these minor parts affordably? And how often are they really to be replaced for DMT-only use?

What percentage rubbing alcohol should be used, if it matters?

DMT will be using the liquid pad every time, he recommends simply soaking the liquid pad in rubbing alcohol, how often should this be soaked for DMT use, and how often replaced for DMT-use only? Since DMT will make use of it every time... would you soak te liquid pads in rubbing alcohol after each use? For an hour, two?

Looking for educated guesses to these DMT-related questions, I know most discussion is centered on uses for 'other'.

Did not order the O rings, how can you tell *when* those need to be replaced? I mean this all heavily depends on frequency of device use, so it's really the number of uses, vs. time, isn't it?

Try using a warm water bath with the ISO soak. It makes a noticeable difference with cleaning. I just leave my jar in the water bath.

Don't use rubbing alcohol. Some rubbing alcohol contains perfume so that it isn't consumed. Use 99.8% Isopropyl alcohol.

The top screens are definitely reusable. I have never replaced mine and they are a year old now.

Well I took the plunge and ordered myself one of these and it turned up last Wednesday. Already up to 5 hours :rofl:

Coming from a desktop Extreme Q, this is my first portable and I'm impressed. It was down to the Crafty and the Grasshopper, and while the GH is an impressive bit of kit it has a bit of an unfinished feeling about it which has steered me clear of it for now. Reading this thread I'm fully expecting the crafty to fail down the line at some point. Maybe when I get to the Crafty 70 hour danger zone it might be worth looking a GH then while my crafty gets sent away. For now I am extremely happy with the design form, function and clouds of the Crafty :love:
