TinyMight / TM 2

BabyFacedFinster

Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing.
Finally got my TM2 back from repair land, and it couldn’t have come sooner. I had them do an overhaul after I accidentally shattered the upper glass sleeve.

What I immediately noticed is that it runs a bit hotter and retains heat longer. From what I’ve read, this is due to the new stainless sleeve. I’m pretty sensitive to heat and have usually kept it set just a hair below 2 to get the flavor and extraction I like. After a few sessions today, I found myself turning it down to a solid 1 on the dial to get great, tasty clouds.

Another observation is that the unit holds heat much longer. In the past, after letting off the button, I would get another wispy hit before needing to press and hold again. Now, after letting off the button, I can take another massive hit immediately with no added heat. I have to say, I like it better this way since I can get great clouds without that extra heat.

Another change is that they upgraded the button to the newer design. It’s not uncomfortable, but it does take a bit more pressure to press and activate. My old button could be pressed by simply palming the whole device and giving it a slight squeeze. Now, you have to place a finger directly on it. It’s not as demanding as my Firewood 9, where my finger gets tired from holding the button, but you do have to pay more attention to it.

All and all, I am happy with the improvements, and so glad to have my faithful DD back in house.

Another change is that they upgraded the bottom to the newer design. It’s not uncomfortable, but it does take a bit more pressure to press and activate the button.

Great to hear! Thanks for the detail too

The new-ish tapered button is indeed much less protruding, and much harder to press.

It also seems to be much more failure-prone than the old, not-tapered button- can't understand why they switched.

The old, non-tapered button that was original to my tinymight2 never was a problem at any time from when i purchased it in February 2023, and still was working fine when i sent it in for a paid repair unrelated to the button in May 2024 (i too shattered the glass lining by dropping it). So the original non-tapered button was going strong after 15 months.

I got it back at the end of May with the new tapered button, which failed, and was replaced under warranty, a few months later in about September of 2024, after working correctly for about three and half months.

The second new tapered button failed in late January 2025, after working correctly for almost four months. I got it back from another warranty repair on January 31.

The button (that's the third replacement in 9 months, for those of you keeping track at home) worked correctly until February 28 (ie, for less than one month), when it again began requiring multiple presses to get the light to hold steady.

A semi-functional TM2 is worth more to me than any vape with plastic parts working 100%, but this has still been a very frustrating experience. i wish that you could still get that old, non-tapered, 15-month (or more) button, instead of these "improved" 1-4 month tapered buttons. Since you can't, and since i know a new button won't last anyway, i am using my semi-functional TM2 until it gets significantly worse, which i figure will be in a month or so. The TM2 is still the best vape i have used, but they need to work on improving reliability. The fourth warranty repair within a year on my device may help them move towards this.
