The Magic-Flight Box

if you do a battery burn before you clean the shoulder bars it makes it much easier in my experiences

I know they changed from Eneloops to something else

MAHA Imedions I believe. Don't know what's up with your set, but the Sanyo brand is not superior to MAHA. They're both top quality.

Just be careful not to have alcohol dripping from the q-tip, if you accidentally drop a small amount on the wood then it might make the taste bad for days.

Have you experienced this? If so, you must have used some ISO with an additive. With standard ISO the alcohol evaporates quickly and doesn't leave a taste.

Thanks, I'll try this.

I'm using 96% ethanol because I already have a bunch of it. It's a bit smellier, but works just as well if you keep this simple rule (though I might need to get ISO to clean the gum below the trench when it gets too much).

I soak the bars with iso for a few minutes. Then go back over it with a iso/qtip and it comes off pretty easy.

Pretty sure MF has said that whatever builds up under your screen will not effect performance and should not be worried about

I lost my stem the other day. I know I dont need it but is there something else I can use as a stem? Buy something at home depot?
Also is there a store that I can buy powerex batteries and smart chargers at or are they only available online?

I am like the old person who only takes their LB out on holidays.

I see all this talk of cleaning the LB, I have not used it more than 10 times and maybe less than 30 times a year and was just thinking I hope I remember all these cleaning tips when I get around to needing to clean it hehe.

I only use it when I travel or when I show it to people. I love it and have ordered the power cord to check that out as well. Its my travel vape and it plays that role fantastically!

Smoking E,

Consider the following....

http://www.thomasdistributing.com/s...html?SP_id=&osCsid=l87g0ecm1tca2fa4d3n7pu4nk2

the Maha C204FA is a fine smart charger for $22.97. If you need more than the two Imedions that came with your box, four more can be had for $10.97.

i've gone to them a few times to try to order things, avg pops up and says this site is a major threat. same way 7th floor used to be.

I use AVG and I've seen this issue on their site. I've also contacted Thomas Dist. about it. It's absolutely NOT a threat. I've left the site open on my laptop for days (multiple times) while this stuff was going on and nothing ever came of it.

Ok im panicing. Got my new C9000 charger and maha 2700s yesterday. Had 4 batts on break in cycle, and i woke up to see someone shut the power off (outlet hooked to a light switch which i hate). Are my batts fucked now????? They were probably charging for like 8-10 hours. Should i just restart the break in cycle, or should i discharge them, then start the break in cycle again?????????????

No need to panic just start them on a new break in cycle and they will be charged and then discharged automatically. I had this exact thing happen to me(outlet connected to light switch......I no longer use that outlet) with no ill effects to the batteries. If you do run into an issue, like lower mAh then expected upon completion just run an analyze & refresh cycle. That charger can handle anything you throw at it.....its a beast.

I got my 2700 Powerex's here in NC at a store called Just Batteries. There is quite a few around town here. They also carried the Maha 9000 charger. They most likely will be a bit more expensive etc...but nice if you want them now!

 

[dsal1]

Here in colorado there are places called Batteries Plus that carry the 2700's. 15.00 for a pack of 4 with case.

does anybody know if magic flight will be making boxes with different colored wood anytime in the future.

I think you may be confusing things. I don't see anything about them setting up links for new types of wood but they did say something about setting up links for ordering the power adapters... which they did do.

The MFLB costs $100, but to use it at its full potential is another $150... If you get the cheapest options possible, it will look something like this.

MFLB $90 (We'll say you didn't get the charger)
AC Adapter $64
C-9000 w/ 4 2700s $60 (I saw it once on sale for $48 by the time I got my card out they changed it back to 60 lol)
Coffee grinder $25-$40 (I guess you don't really need this, but I see a lot of members recommending it.)

That will be about $239. OK sure you don't need all of that, but when I purchased my LB is under the impression that the $100 is all that i would have had to spend. I guess I can understand the better batteries and charger and damn it I want the ac adapter lol. So what do you guys think is spending the extra cash worth it, or is it getting a little out of hand?

Just a nit - I recently picked up a coffee grinder recommended here for dedicated herb use. $13 at Amazon.

You can get a smart charger for around half what you have listed up above as well.

 

[TerrorTurkey]

IMO i dont think it is all necessary. i paid 25 for an energizer 15 min charger w/ 4 batts, and 15 for 2700's. and i have seen coffee grinder at walmart for 10-15. with 10 batteries i dont see any need for the power adapter cause my charger can have 4 ready in about 30 mins(and even came with car adapter), although it would be kinda nice to avoid wear and tear and not have to charge batts, i would still need to charge them for going out anyway. but most of all, if im going to be sitting in one place vaping at my house i just use my ssv. i use my MFLB around the house if im going to be moving around or away from an outlet

 

[slain]

a pair of small scissors and a shotglass works awesome as a "grinder" too if your trying to keep the prices down for the holidays etc.
