The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

Ohh, I'm gonna have to try that now.

I only use capsules as well so it makes perfect sense removing that screen.

Thanks for tip mate, most appreciated.
I did get a tiny bit extra avb dust in the plastic bit above the screen - but very minimal really and there was no major build up between cleaning or that affected performance at all
No dust made it past that point into the rest of the vapour path/MP

Over all it made the vape perform better and improved the maintenance/cleaning of the device for me

I swear I heard either Troy or Jerry say if you plug your phone into the Mighty+ it will charge your phone. I guess Mr. Bickel gave him this pointer for dealing with TSA while flying with the Mighty+.

Can anyone confirm?

Hesitated asking this question, gonna feel super stupid and take a tolerance break if I’m wrong 😂
This is actually design feature of USB-C. It can go both ways, depending on how the devices communicate which one should supply the power.

A bit more details here:

Damn I ended up ordering it from POTV. Should I cancel it? @condition @4-Aces King-High

USB PD (Power delivery) standard involves negotation betwen the devices which voltage (V) is required by the charged devices (currrent is fixed at 5A so choice is 5V, 9V, 15V, 20V and hence 25W, 45W, 75W and 100W). The risk of damaging the battery comes from buying shitty chargers that don't have really support PD and use various hacks to mimic it, which means there is a risk for higher than needed voltage being send towards the device. I'm fairly S&B charger is all good, while random AliExpress "SUPERFAST100w CHARGER" for $10 is not.

I have to say that I'm very impressed with the OG mighty. I have been using the Crafty+ lately, so when I went to use it with a newly loaded dosing capsule the battery was dead. I grabbed the OG mighty, which I haven't used in over 6 months, and when I turned it on the battery was still fully charged!! Was a nice surprise and forgot how much of a beast that thing is. I have to say that S&B do make vapes that just work with little effort (and also happy that the dosing caps fit in all of them). Guess it will move back into rotation for a little while.

Has anyone tried the one piece wpa for the mighty+ ? curious if there is a risk at causing damage from having the device upside down or such and should just keep using a short tube to feed my water piece?

I don't think there's any risk of using it upside on the WPA
That's how I used it, but the mighty was one I didn't really use on water
It wasn't great at it and produced thin clouds
I preferred it dry - most vapes I use on water, but not when I had the mighty

Should I grab a dynavap b? do you have a volcano hybrid ? water with the whip if so?

im new to vaping, my sig has my devices

Really depends on your needs and vaping style mate
I can't tell which will suit you specifically as they all work a bit different
DV are good vapes though, I prefer the with an IH myself - the wand is my go to
I don't have a volcano sorry
Ball vapes are killer

The mighty was a great vape to convert joint smokers I found
Easy to use any draw style and get nice thick clouds

Many people use inverted vaporisers on water, I am very sceptical about that. It is simple physics hot air is way less dense than cold air so it will naturaly flow to the inside of the vaporiser and as such may eventually overheat parts that were not supposed to be overheated in the projected use of the device. I do not do that !

does using that wpa give better airflow than using a whip style wpa?
By 'whip style wpa' are you talking about a whip that connects to the Mighty cooling unit, then on to something that connects to water piece? If so, consider that there is loss of vapor to condensation in such a circuit. A wpa that can connect directly to your Mighty (cooling unit removed) and to water piece will be more effective at delivering vapor to you.

The concern about inverted use may be valid, but not so much for heat as for possible vapor going back up the airpath and condensing in there or somewhere around the electronics.
I might suggest to not leave it inverted for whole session, just during hits.

yeah, I see the vapor come back out too. I make sure the water level goes back to normal before putting it back in, didn't even think about hot air going back in and hurting the device?

I was just curious if there was a benefit to using an adapter over the whip with the adapter, better air flow? if i use a whip, ill get one of those adapters with the carb hole from sneaky pete.

but the user, inhaler, creates forced convection that is way stronger than the natural convection if you leave your vape upside down and then the hot vapor will go up...so the vapor will move in the opposite direction to the natural convection....

I'm a happy Mighty user for some years now, I bought used unit and now the battery life is not as it was.
So I'm thinking of options for the near future.
1. Change the batteries
2. Get a new Mighty(same old model)
3. Get a new Mighty+
4. Get something else(what is as good?)
What would you do in my situation?
if my 7 y.o. mighty died, I'd just grab a new one (not the +); vapospy has lots of deals.

Even then the back of the chamber will not feel the pull and after the pull the heat goes where it has to go, so does vapour, further more heated vapour. Anyway, in practise may not be that bad for the equipment, but I just do not do it exept if the vaporiser has the heating chamber on the lower part of the unit.

I see troy using one but I know that if he breaks his, that he has probably 2 back ups....I do not ; ;

I was just wondering if it was due to having better air flow? if anyone here knows, let me know please <3

Yes pulling through straight glass and no whip is better flow.

You can actually just buy a 10mm male to 14mm male standard glass adapter for $8. The 10mm side fits nice into the cooling units hole (remove the mouth piece of course) and your ready to rip a 14mm bubbler.

This removes any issues with the plastic breaking on your Might with those 3rd party adapters.

I'm amazed that with a 600+ page knowledge base these simple questions bubble up (no pun intended!) over and over again.
And let me preface by saying there are lots of vapes that will hit harder (through water/bubbler, etc) than Mighty.

Hands down the best wpa ever was/is the diy muzzmod, I will once again praise @elmomuzz's ingenuity. But I won't re-hash it (google it!). You gotta make your own and it takes some skills. It pre-dates any wpa that has come to market. Available mods now make it pretty much obsolete, but they are not any better.

The Delta3dstudios V3 wpa is made of all flexible material and will not hurt the Mighty's plastic mounting area. Buy this one.

I give @vapeape77 points for creativity; a simple, pretty good idea and adaptation, and 'all glass'. But it still uses the stock cooling unit.

The cooling unit is a condensation factory. Cooling=Condensation when vapor is involved. Any vapor condensed and left sticky and never reaching your mouth is basically an inefficiency; a waste.

The Delta3d adapter will give you very open airflow, as will the glass adapters that have a plastic mounting sleeve (but with those you do need to consciously avoid over-tightening).

I stopped using any water in the bubblers, etc a couple of years ago. I get sufficient cooling and 'conditioning'(?) through some circuitous glass piece (even a j-hook). Water will likely rob flavor and sometimes even increase draw resistance.
Mostly I use an in-line (straight) bubbler, dry.

For travel we are back to using the stock c/u; it does work.

SEARCH for the treasure...
Finally got a Mighty last month. POTV had lightly used for $208, and that did it. I like the dosing capsules, and am trying to decide if I should get the filler so I can fill 40 at once. Seems like it would save time.
I think I need to go back to the beginning on this thread to collect hints, tips and tricks.

I suggest the 8 pod refill device, that loads 8 pods, I be believe that @Delta3DStudios has a larger size too. I own this, works great.

Hey @Madri-Gal good to see you 🙂
Hope all is well
I removed the top screen in the mighty as I only used dosing caps
Better airflow and less clogging
I also enjoyed a glass MP for it, was nicer feel on the lips
