    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi purplenurple24 and TheHof, FTFY is a new acronym for me. Where I come from, which is quite a few decades ago, changing someone's words in a direct quotation was as socially acceptable as kicking an elderly man in the balls. I am increasingly getting weary of all this silliness and...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Dear purplenurple24, I am not sure how you accomplished this feat, but you have managed to mis-quote my post. Fascinating, indeed. For the record, as it were, THE magnetized lid is just fine. THE gasket is just fine. Well, there you are, purplenurple24. Work your magic. :myday:

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Greetings, Firefly 2 Nation, Illuminations, The drier your material the better, within reason. Medium grind to ensure thorough interface (surface area contact with hot air). Grinder cards are perfect for this. Ensure that NO bits of detritus are anywhere outside the bowl. LSD=PFT/RFT Every...

    Hi tepictoton, You are asking if anyone has opened up their unit, as in dis-assembly ? ! ? ! Sheesh. That is like handing a sharp knife to the 7 year old boy who lives next door, and asking him if he knows what is inside his new drum. Not gonna happen at my house, no sirree. :myday:

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Further musings, My gold Firefly (it's so-o-o-o purdy !) really excels when vaping concentrates. However, as I mentioned previously, after "ripping a pad", the inside of the lid is a glazed, sticky mess. No big deal to clean with ISO, but I can't imagine doing a "field" cleaning, if you want...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Thoughts & intimations, thus far, The batteries perform really well. I am now taking 3 or 4 tokes on the Medium heat profile, stirring, and then bumping up to High for achievement of PFT status. Speaking of batteries, trying to determine the degree of charge remaining is like trying to teach...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi CL 52613, I have returned. No worries on whatever handle you affix to me. I am older, and maybe a skosh wiser, and things like that don't really matter. Yes, I have master the Firefly2. No brag, just fact. Forthwith, a cogent compendium of cryptic (not) coalescing of data. Ready ...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi CL52613, Thanx, man ! The main reason I post on this forum is to share what I have learned/gleaned from copious "research". Having vaped over 4,000 bowls in my original silver Firefly, having a science/technical background, and unleashing the full potential of my particular manifestation of...

    Discontinued The Grasshopper

    Hello, all those in pre-order purgatory, I have followed the evolution of Hopper Labs for quite awhile, and in my opinion the trajectory of their company is just right. Remember this: GHL is making a state-of-the-art highly sophisticated machine, which has a LIFETIME WARRANTY. How many...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi Mr Me2 & jim-bob, Concentrates are another name for "glue". Not really, but once concentrates are melted and cooled, they redefine the word "sticky". No problemmo, as long as the pad is removed while it is warm. The provided pick in the cleaning kit accomplishes this easily. If you...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Greetings Firefly2 Nation, Concentrate pad report #3: After having "busted 5 pads", I have learned a few things which I would like to pass along. I found that with a fully charged battery, I can bust 2 pads, with some power left over. It only takes a tiny amount of the concentrates I have to...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi Stoney Baloney, Here is a concentrate pad wrap-up, thus far. As for capacity/battery charge, I did 1 flower bowl, and I busted 2 pads of Blackberry Kush, and tried to bust a 3rd pad, but red-lighted immediately. Also, when I busted the 2nd pad, at the end I was only using a 5 second heat...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Greetings, Firefly2 Nation, Concentrate pad report #2: I must start by making a correction regarding report #1. Actually, the battery I started using had already been used on a bowl of flower. Anyhoo, I decided to "bust another pad" (my phrase, but you may soitanly use it, nyukkk nyukkk...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi Gandalf, You and Reggie Watts both mention this "creaking" sound when you initiate a heat cycle. This mysterious creaking sound is actually not creaking from the body, but it is the audible sound made when thirty watts of power is instantaneously applied to the heating mechanism. Mine...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Greetings, Firefly2 Nation, Concentrate pad report #1: I have been having wonderful results with my gold Firefly (it's so-o-o purdy !) using primo flower bud. Today I had my first "pad" of concentrate: Blackberry Kush, a naughty little Indica @ 64.7%. I selected the concentrate heat...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi jay87 & Mr Mellish, Before I retired 5 years ago, I used to teach people how to use complicated machinery. Final success always boiled down to adherence to the two most important tenets of a manipulative task: Distillation of process & Efficacy of result. I have diligently applied my...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi jay87, Yes, my gold Firefly and I have formed a strong bond, even though we have only been together for 46 hours. I provided a multi-installment review of concentrate pad use in the original Firefly. I am looking forward to utilizing the concentrate pads with the new Concentrate heat...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi Mr Mellish, Morimoto, and Mr.Me2, Whew, I started to skitter off the rails for a moment back there. Thank you for the props. I am fine now, as I have just vaped a bowl of "Blue Dream" @ 22.6% from my gold Firefly, starting at Medium for the first rush of terpenes, then progressing to High...

    The Firefly 2 vaporizer

    Hi Mr Mellish, I am currently vaporizing "The Hog", a wicked little Indica pegging the THC meter at 27.4%. But I digress. I am arguably the person on this forum with the most experience with Firefly, having been vaping 5 + bowls/day for 25 consecutive months out of my silver Firefly. Do the...
