    Ghost MV-1 Speculation and Shipping Thread

    yes. if the MV1 turns out to have a serious design flaw that only becomes apparent with prolonged use (how long did it take for the crafty's issues to come up?), Ghost might not even be around in 5 years.

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    the way to assess your batteries' health is to see how many sessions you get from a charge - if you're getting over 5, you're fine. I seem to recall people here talking about getting 6-7 initially, with that # going down to 4 with heavy, prolonged (e.g. 2+ years) use. YMMV, depending on the...

    Ghost MV-1 Speculation and Shipping Thread

    I just watched vape critic's follow-up review (the long one), in which he tries to clarify things. one thing he said was that it's not always necessary, and people might not bother, but if you want full extraction, you do have to stir the crucible at some point mid-way. he says that any...

    Ghost MV-1 Speculation and Shipping Thread

    if you're on board with all these: 1. vape critic's review is representative of what you'd experience 2. you trust his rating system 3. you believe that the MV1 is close to release ...it would make sense to wait. OTOH: vape critic's top-rated vape up to now is the mighty, so it's not like...

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    I suggest you start super-low, like 155ºC - the vapor will be so cool you won't even know anything happened until you exhale; then you can really taste it. after a couple hits @ 155, go to 165 - you might start to see vapor, but it depends... in general, you get better flavor, cooler vapor @...

    Ghost MV-1 Speculation and Shipping Thread

    I admit that after watching the video a couple times I was still kind of scratching my head about that, but IME these things are quickly learned (even by we seniors). like you, I'm looking forward to 'real world' reports.

    Ghost MV-1 Speculation and Shipping Thread

    fair enough. just speculating of course, but if this vape does well, spare parts like that metal cap will be readily available and cheap - but it's not even available and I'm talking about mods. I'll wait for it to be out for a while before indulging my VAS - this forum is exactly the place to...

    Ghost MV-1 Speculation and Shipping Thread

    first post on this topic... like a lot of you, I'm looking forward to hearing about the experiences FC members have with this. - it looks like you could bend the little 'ears' on the crucible lid in a bit so it'd grip the crucible (if desired) - couldn't you open the door, turn the unit...

    mighty = 8.5 oz. MV1 = 11.9 oz. the MV1 is actually a little smaller though, closer in size to the crafty

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    there are a few things you hear from people who have issues with the mighty: it's a 'session vape' (plan on finishing whatever you've put in the bowl instead of taking hits and turning it off between hits); it doesn't get hot enough to vape hard hash easily (you can do it, but you have to cut...

    coolest vape?

    I guess I should've included Paka-cholo's comment about substituting ingestion as a temporary measure - but it sounds like you've (unfortunately) had experience with respiratory issues (sorry!) and are being careful. your description of cannabis and depression makes me think about stuff I've...

    coolest vape?

    I'm no doctor, wasn't going to comment, but I think Paka-cholo's right: give your lungs a break until you're 100%

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    it does seem like there's been a slight reduction in mighty pricing. you might try checking with puff it up - he usually offers a 15% discount and people seem very happy with the customer service.

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    my experience with the mighty is that the vapor production varies quite a bit, depending on what you put in. I've had my (parked) car literally dense with clouds, to where I had to open the windows; other times I only got wispy vapor. the 'cloud chasers' seem to end up going straight to the...

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    the mighty never really had quality control issues; that was (is?) more with the crafty, probably due to the crafty having one battery to mighty's two - and doing the same amount of work. if you went back and read this entire thread, I think you'd find very few instances of failure that weren't...

    Dynavap VapCap

    bubble hash can be anything from dry powder to goo, so the technique varies. if it's too powder-y, you can use heat (low iron on parchment folded over a little hash), which turns the hash into something like the texture of a very thin cookie: crumbly but it holds together. little chips of this...

    Dynavap VapCap

    they're all probably ok. you can even use a candle. some of the more experienced people here have noted that the slower heat-up from using a single-flame torch (or bic or candle) produces different results, mostly a larger number of vapes per load, but it's also better for hash, which benefits...

    Buying a new vaporiser for hash

    my experience - and what a lot of this discussion is about - is that hard hash is more difficult to fully vape than flower. you definitely get flavor - and some effects - at lower temperatures, but you won't finish the hash, i.e. some of it never gets consumed. maybe that's because you're not...

    Buying a new vaporiser for hash

    you're right that hash comes in different textures, even if you exclude other concentrates like wax; bubble hash (which comes in many different forms, from gooey to powdery) and hard hash. my mighty didn't work well with hard hash, so I asked on this forum for advice. people suggested the vapcap...

    The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

    the mighty comes with a 'liquid pad', which can be used to reduce the volume of the chamber (you put it on top of the weed). I find that a full chamber is about .1 - .12g; using the liquid pad, the capacity's something like .05-.07g. I think you're doing the right thing by considering going...
