    The Magic-Flight Box

    We are hoping to start shipping Beta units very soon (days). There are a number of last minute things we are trying to get done before opening up the ordering system for these. Not all of them have cleared the production line yet, so things may go on a pre-order basis. Not sure yet -- will...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Thanks! Actually, that test unit is one of the new ones. Really, the only way you can tell is the lighter color of the coil. The wood looks nearly the same from Birch to Maple -- they both tend to be lighter color woods with occasional darker colors.

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi Everyone, Here are some pictures of the power adapter. I can also answer some questions that have been asked: It comes in two parts, a wall adapter and 6 feet of cord, and a converter with 3 feet of cord. There is an option to use a auto adapter instead of the wall adapter, which...

    Hi Everyone, The first Beta units of the Power Supply will probably be available for shipping later this week. We will be making an announcement regarding the ordering process and design/usage details herein this forum when everything is "turned on" and ready to go. Very soon now... --...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Not sure I understand your last comment: do you mean that you see no difference in performance when using the same Box with different batteries (ie batteries having very different ages and/or usage histories)? The current hypothesis is that each battery undergoes some internal change in...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, From our own testing, we have not noticed any 'break in' period with the unit itself. We suspect that observations to this effect are much more likely to be associated with the batteries. The discharge profile for the first 15 seconds of use immediately after a battery is charged is...

    Hi Champ, I re-watched the vid. Given the sense of familiarity expressed, his technique is probably well practiced for the unit he is holding. Please bear in mind that every unit is a little different (they are hand made). Given that you are indicating that your Box (with time) gets hot...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, The Box will vape whatever amount less than a full trench just fine. You could put 1/100 of a trench in if that is what you wanted -- and you would get at least 3/100ths vapor from it (and probably a lot more, compared to smoking). If you wanted to vaporize only/exactly one tiny speck --...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, We tried that. It can work infrequently -- generally on material that is very dry and not too sticky (which is generally not a good sign for the material -- might not be worth the effort). Other than that, the grinder tends to jam. This has been determined to be true for nearly all known...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, For people those people who have been asking to see one of these units in action, one of the better user contributed vids I have seen on the net is the following: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQo6-DqGE6A That is about as close to a set of 'simplified user instructions' I have come...

    This is correct. We will gladly replace any unit that becomes non-functional due to a buildup of this kind.

    The simplest fix may be to simply get some Imedion batteries. They have the largest diameter of any that we currently know about and are very good solid batteries. They will probably fit exactly snug. Failing that, contact us via email. -- Magic-Flight

    The Magic-Flight Box

    We are expecting our first beta run of 800 units to finalize in production on the 11th. They will be available for purchase to active FC members about a week after that, assuming no additional snafu. We expect unit costs to be somewhere in the area of $50 to $60, but will not know until they...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, It is possible, but not very practical. Currently, a single AAA battery simply does not hold enough power for a reasonable vaping session for one "typical" user -- the battery runs out too fast. A "AAA" battery has about 1/3 of the capacity of a AA battery. The technology in this area...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, If you are not seeing vapor when applying the battery for 15 seconds without drawing, then your unit is not functioning correctly, and is covered by warranty. With a slow, very light draw, the materials in the trench should gradually become a darker color. Perhaps your unit is operating...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi Qbit, While it is true that batteries will *not* short side to side if not connected to anything else -- ie, when they are in the battery case (as they should be), however, it IS possible for one of the batteries to short if they are side to side within _some_ types of electronic devices...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, It is made of Birch. We are currently considering adding some special art woods for the Holiday season -- probably to be sold via a special auction. It has been considered, but not yet implemented. We have a couple of other projects in the works which we would like to get completed...

    The Magic-Flight Box

    Hi, Various questions answered... HereAtLast: That picture is rather old. We did discontinue making the bent drawtube -- it was found by too many people to be two awkward in use -- the strait version and the whip were more popular. We also discontinued the short stem in favor of a longer...

    Now you know *one* of the reasons why it is printed on every unit shipped. A statement of truth that deep is very strong. Used appropriately, it can transform the impossible into perfection. It is the last, deepest, and in some sense the final protection that can be offered. As you have just...

    I completely agree -- it is rare! I second that acknowledgment! I have made some tweaks a few days ago. Overall, it looks really good. I will review again from time to time and update as needed. -- Magic-Flight
