I wonder if someone could help me out please! My TM is currently loaned to a friend and I want to know how much stem is inserted into the chamber please? In other words, the length of the chamber from bottom to the top of the tightening ring. Thanks in advance.

Should be about an inch

Measured with my caliper depth stop. From the boss at the bottom of the oven sleeve (the stem stop) to the top of the adjustment ring is 31 mm.
Keep in mind that the adjustment ring may vary (tighter, less tight). Measured from stem stop to top without the ring it is 29 mm.
All on my fairly new walnut wood unit; others may vary.

The time has come for me to finally order a Tinymight 2. Will be doing so in the next couple of weeks. I just cannot decide if I get dosing capsules as well with my order. Not sure if I will really need them or not.
Good to see you’re getting TM2. About the caps that’s a personal choice some people like them for easy loading when out and about, others like they run cleaner than without. I used to be a big cap user, but my ability to load them has become difficult due my digits and now only use them only for hash. They work ok for herb with TM2 with slightly more conduction effect and the load is used up quicker. I prefer the non-capped TM2 herb load and don’t think they are a necessity for the TM2 unless you’re using hash or hash/herb mix.

There are rumors of an all black edition coming out soon, so you might wanna pump the brakes on grabbing a TM2 monetarily.

Which will also incorporate as yet unnamed “functional upgrades,” which, if past practice holds true, will only be available in the all black model.

This was something I was worried about. A new model coming out. I guess I gotta wait a bit longer then to see how this unfolds. Firefly 2+ is gonna have to tide me over.

When you all clean your mouthpiece are you tossing it all in ISO? Doesn’t the cooling unit have gaskets on it? And are those safe for ISO? If not, how are you all cleaning the gasket? I was under the impression it could be dropped in ISO.

Get alternative aftermarket stems instead

Or get some 3mm boro, quartz, whatever balls and load them in your stem between two basket screens! Quick and easy aftermarket stem right there :)

I found 3 mm to be too small, but a mix of 4 mm and 6 mm can work well, I find that tedious with extra screens though, and much prefer the stems with the balls fixed, but even more than that I prefer u-turn stems or hooks the most, haven't used stock in years

When I was using the stock setup I would always clean the o rings in the same way as the rest of the stem. You sometimes see them stretch or deform if they soak for hours, but when they dry off properly they return to normal shape IME.

If you go with balls and screens if you make sure the screens are well formed and fit tightly you can soak the lot without disassembling.

Aftermarket stems are much nicer though and something you should aim for eventually. If finances are tight the stock setup, or balls in stock stem will work fine until your wallet recovers.

Doesn't the current TM2 come with the short stem with the cooling unit and the short ball stem? The ball stem cools quite well for the time being and you can look around in peace. And the problem with the seals is also rather marginal with the ball stem, they are only on the removable mouthpiece.

You don't really to add screens. The 2 hollow parts of the CU with the open bottoms facing each other and the empty space filled with whatever size balls/pillars etc.
If you go with balls and screens if you make sure the screens are well formed and fit tightly you can soak the lot without disassembling.
I like to disassemble because I find that there's still some residue on the balls and CU walls if you just soak the whole thing.
It's very easy and quick if you just use the hollow CU parts without screens

You folks may be way ahead of me on this, but I'd like to take a moment to praise Tinymight customer service (the ever-kind, ever-patient Joni) and promote what I think may be very _good news_ for those who have had button issues. I did, quite recently, and I have in the past. In fact I've had quite bad luck with the power switch.

Most recently I could not fix the issue on my own, and had to send it out for repair. Joni explained that they now configure the interior mechanism as a modular kit that can be easily replaced, and that this new component kit has given them no problem as yet. It's a fact that my returned TM2 switch feels sturdier and surer than ever.

As before, U.S. repairs are being handled by the estimable VGoodiEZ (who I believe sometimes makes an appearance on this forum), and I was able to have my beloved TM back in short order.

I hope no one minds my saying what is obvious to me, that in an area filled with much mediocrity, Tinymight remains a sterling example of excellence on every level.

nice to hear it as it's surely a footnote on the device that it has known button issues and a footnote that i'm sure they want gone and fixed for good!

Actually, I was... but only in my own mind. I'd become more and more convinced that something was amiss with my power button, even as I became more careful and attentive as to how I activated it. Figured it had to be 'me'.

Will reach out to TM support and see how they want to work out the logistics. Would be pleased as punch if they would mail out a user-installable kit, saving the need to send the thing across the ocean (or, across the Chattahoochee) 🚢

Thanks for posting this -- much appreciated.

I may be wrong, but I don't think it's something a user can easily replace, and I wouldn't feel good about doing that kind of surgery myself. However, as I mentioned I've had problems in the past that I was able to fix, if not ultimately, for a very long time.
