    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, @pakalolo: Thanks! I will schedule the website to get updated (will probably take a while, unfortunately). @gvape and wake n blake and Vitolo: They will be available fairly soon since we have started production already. We are trying to get a new retail section opened for them. Should...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, I have updated the list of overall changes to the Box itself (only) below. Changes listed do not include calibration changes, slight modifications to the fit and finish affecting measure only, build process changes and optimizations, etc. Also not listed are recalibration shifts to match...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, So here is a first look at the Water Pipe Adapter.... As you can see, it is just an adapter, not actually a complete water pipe. There are a lot of people who have custom glass and we definitely wanted to support them! Although it is hard to see from the photos, the adapter has a...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Unfortunately, we have also noticed a few of these copies showing up on the market. They are noticeably inferior in build and currently have no markings or engravings of any kind. Of the ones we have seen, only about 1/3 of them even work at all. Naturally, it is recommended that...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Unfortunately, it seems the BlissSville sales team (part of a retail/distribution company) is a little out of sync with the Magic-Flight design team (part of a engineering/manufacturing company). Since I represent the MF company and have been involved in many of the design discussions...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Thank You! Naturally, as things progress, we remain committed to making improvements and refinements to our manufactured designs wherever possible. The cover lock (a small modification on the lower left corner of the Box face) is something we have been experimenting with internally over...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, In regards to your first question, not sure. Sending another PA will most likely get stuck in the post in the same way. How much of a delay are you anticipating and what would you recommend as an alternative arrangement? In regards to the water pipe adapter for the Box, I can happily...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, The Power Adapter (no longer in Beta) only uses/produces a little bit more than the amount of voltage and energy that would be found in a good AA rechargeable, so yes, it is quite safe. In the interests of saving energy between sessions, the recommended approach is to unplug either the...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Actually, we don't have a database like that. We do not keep linking information that ties any individual person to any particular Box (We support users privacy!). We can use the serial number to determine when the Box was built, what shipping batch it was a part of, and most...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi TreeCityRnd, No problem -- I completely understand. Glad to have you among us! Hi VivaSativa, Have the batteries ever become hot while in use or while charging? Usually, the heat is what causes this, and unfortunately, it means that you will probably have to get new ones. They may...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi Stickstones, If you watch carefully and have good lighting, you may see a subtle change in the color of the vapor as things warm up. At first, it has a more transparent quality, and then beyond a certain temperature, it gets "whiter" and more 'streamy'. This is well before the appearance...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, First of all, thank you. Both for the research work and for the timely link. I agree that this may remain true for some people, for a little while yet at least. Unfortunately, the trend is moving away from that, largely due to the internet itself. A lot of previously public libraries...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi TreeCityRnd, Agreed -- and very well stated! We have been posting similar observations ourselves, and it is nice to see them collaborated. With the Box design, we have endeavored to match the bodies natural adsorption rate with an appropriate vapor emission rate. Unfortunately, this...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, There has been considerable interest in using the Launch Box with water tools. As such, it is my pleasure to announce that we will soon be releasing an adapter specifically designed for using a Launch Box with a water pipe. As the prototyping and production work has already been done, we...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, We were skeptical too. There are certain physical and chemical limits that more than just hard to overcome. However, we are not perfect, so in the interests of communal knowledge we ordered a set and put them on our battery analyzers. The results are not good. Really not good. The...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Wood with a Janka hardness rating of 1500 or more tends to require some serious special processing (we do not process wood in terms of specific gravity). Anything above 2500 is basically a no-go. There are some extreme exotics that go as high as 4000 however. For those who have been...

    Hi, It seems like that particular rep was being delightfully minimalist in their explanation of our warranty policy regarding the PA. All Beta PA units are currently under a functional warranty, however, there is as yet no specific _official_limit_ on the duration beta PA warranty. Eventually...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, There has been a little bit of internal testing on the NiZn chemistry with mixed results. For one thing, due to the higher voltage, the Box will run significantly hotter if it works at all. While some people may want to have a Box that runs a lot hotter, not all NiZn batteries will handle...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Actually, that claim can be substantiated, and on the basis of pure physical fact and calculation. The info presented below are the basic kinds of common knowledge available to any real physicist or engineer and can be checked against standard sources -- by any recognized authority you...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Agreed. This and a couple of other similar issues will be fixed as we update and improve our build process going forward into production. Thank you for remembering to bring this to our attention. It is important that we get feedback from people testing the Beta version so that issues like...
