The Magic-Flight Box

Yes, it's a quarter of an Elements rice rolling paper without the glue. Works well enough to get a good hit. The oil melts into the paper and it can be hit a few times afterwards. Making due with what I have, my MFLB, fully charged batteries and oil

Making due with what you have indeed. Very cool.

I have been wanting one but I can't afford a dedicated BHO vaporizer, as I've said I'm making the best of my box

OK, back on topic...

As Q was saying, he was using his Box for wax and such for some time, while he was beating the Hell out of it, trying to warrant a replacement.

But, you can ask him... he's vaped just about everything in it, including furniture polish, I believe. So, if you catch him (while in a sane period) he can probably give you lots of alternate uses.

EDIT: TRENCH PORN

Grand Daddy Purple MFLB grind!


Hhmmm... missing something...


MUCH BETTER!

Beautiful shots! A word of advice, try to lower the aperture of your lens when taking close up shots without a macro lens. Its hard to appreciate some photos when you have a really shallow DoF.

Its a smartphone, with a $4 macro lens.

that's the way i do it.. i rarely use the LB for that though.. especially now-a-days, since i have other options.. concentrate vapor sticks to everything good.. so i avoid it w/ the box since it cant be fully cleaned.. i find it makes the screen mad sticky too and when you vape herb all the particles stick everywhere, if u don't clean right after.. i always do a heat cycle after using extracts for that reason... there's usually a good burn off.. glad it works for you.. how is your screen? you were using 2700 batteries right?.. i had very slight leak through's w/ batteries. no big deal though.. just little dots that would soak through after ~min or 2 of use..

My old batteries don't work anymore for the box. I've been using them in my xbox so they probably have lost power over last year when I last used the box. Really don't see myself spending another $40-$50 on this vaporizer that I honestly may use 1-2 times a month (have SSV). Also, the light was working before with the old batteries when I was using the box. The box also is not heating up when the light isn't on

i think the reason why paidndade brings it up might be because of my response in post #19476

it's possible.... happened to me.. that box still works too.. the light works when it feels like it or through the pa at higher powers... but it always gets hot even when not lighting up.. as hot as it (rubber band model) ever has, from what i can tell. i thought it was worth checking out, because i thought my box was broken or that my batteries were bad... but it was fine and it's still kickin today.

It's not an investment for your vaporizer. It's an investment for rechargable batteries... The box just happens to use batteries. That's what I meant, otherwise without the batteries in hand I couldn't tell you what's up with them.

Would these be a good pair of batteries to get for my MFLB? I'm looking at them specifically because they are about $5

iv'e been getting too used to the other vapes so i started using my LB more, and it always takes care of business... getting medicated off almost nothing again.. its nice to switch it up.. i need to keep it more regular though, and it should help keep me from getting too used to the vapes w/ bigger appetites.. ha

Anyone auctually seen the place these are made? Because there are a ton of them on Alibaba from a few different suppliers. seams like it would be easy to order a to order a ton of them have them lazer etched in the states and slapped made in USA on them right?

I had an idea today.

Would a glass "bowl" or "boat" of some kind placed inside the trench allow you to vaporize hash oil without getting your screen clogged?

yup.. i imagine the paper having the fastest response though?... it would likely have to be super thin glass... i have never found anything that seemed like it would work good enough(size/shape/thickness) for a test... i would have tried it if i had found something to improvise w/.. if i remember correctly, a little while back MF said they've tested different materials for inserts.. i imagine glass was one of the first ones?? i wonder what the results were...

whatever direction they choose to take it... i'm excited to find out what they've been up to..
speculating could be fun

Here's what BHO looks like in the MFLB for anyone interested

nice clear video

Nice video! For better results, you should use smaller pieces of oil, and separate them so the oil won't melt together too much while heating up. When this happens you need a higher heat then necessary, and it would take longer. The size of a small red pepper seed or fenugreek seed, is all you need for each round, if you let the battery stay in for 10-15 seconds. Also, try to keep the paper flat, with only the edges folded up. Basically, design the paper to look just like the mflb screen. Then put the drop of oil on the middle of the screen allowing it to spread out evenly. This allows as much oil to touch the screen as possible.The whole reason for using oil with thin rolling paper in the mflb is quick vaporization with very little dilution from air, and easy clean up, which is not available in other vaporizers. You can always reload the chamber if you want more. Also, try to use fresh papers after 1 session because the more oil the paper holds on to, the higher the heat needs to be for quick vaporization, and it won't be as clean. Have fun.

Glass isnt a very good conductor of heat so glass would be a poor choice. A better choice might be something like copper.

The problem you then face is how this boat fits into the trench. It really needs to fit perfectly, any slight gaps between the copper and the trench would result in a massive drop off in the amount of heat conducted into the boat as air is a poor conductor of heat and obviously any gap would contain air.

The trenches of LBs aren't made to the kind of very high tolerances that would be required to be able to have the boat fit.

You could probably come up with something that would work quite well with aluminium foil as it would be so thin that it could be easily moulded to an individual trench by pressing lightly on it with your fingers.

Well its still a better choice than glass.

i used to do the same thing when i was younger... w/ hash... and w/ resin ha.. i would just put it on a piece of a rolling paper and wrap it up and twist it up in a ball and burn it up...the bottom would not burn for a min and cradle the melt so it doesn't run through.. when i tried it in the LB it leaked all over ha... so the boat is the way to go....

edit: about the metal i assumed metal sitting on the screen that has power going through would interfere in harmful way to the box??... not sure.. if i remember, MF said not to try using any metal in the trench for some reason... i wondered about using tiny strong magnets to transfer electricity from the rails through the (thin) stainless steel insert?? never looked into it enough.. don't know enough about magnets or electricity.. just something i was thinking about a while ago..
