    It is true that we had intended (during product development) to have it cost appx $60 (didn't happen). If there were fewer people and agreements involved, the price would be a bit lower. I am not permitted to go into details. However, be aware that 'bringing something to market' requires...

    Agreed -- I was suggesting it may be possible -- it has not been tried below 50 and the test AT 50 was inconclusive for other reasons. Therefore, for the sake of truth, I could not claim that it would operate ok in the cold. With my detractors requiring me to be more careful with my claims, I...

    For the suggested difference in the temperature for the set point, the time goes from 4 seconds to 20 seconds. This means that from the time the battery is applied, it is appx 20 seconds before visible vapor production. Also, the heating is much more even in these cases. It will never be...

    We are planning to offer a few longer draw, slower/ lower temp units for FC membership who specifically want that.

    We never know what customs will do. Sometimes they do nothing and things arrive quickly. Other times -- ?? This affects everyone shipping over international borders -- not just Magic-Flight.

    Hi, We use those distinctions internally, and yes, for some of our experiments geared towards absolute efficiency, we did often check the results with a microscope, although that (and chemical tests) are not usually necessary. Visual inspection will be able to distinguish those concepts nearly...

    Hi, It is better that the load be ground, and finer grinds tend to be better, (to a point -- powdering would probably be too much). It is best if the load is about 2/3 of the distance up the screen. Most people consider that to be a moderately small load, only a little larger than that...

    Hi, Previously, I have been asked to be very careful and strict qualifying my claims. It would not be unfair to ask others posting claims in this thread to adhere to a similar standard themselves as they would ask of me. In particular, there are important and significant differences between...

    Hi, Thanks -- I should have indicated I was thinking of portables. I didn't know about that little tube with the Vaporstar -- will have to take a look. Does it show the load, or only the vapor passing through the tube? My understanding of the Vaporstar is that it is an enclosed/opaque unit...

    Hi CD, Great! Question -- a shorter draw tube? The thinking is that it needs to be long enough to allow the eyes to sharp focus on the vape so as to see what is going on. For most people (esp, those over 40), that means 6 inches, min. Are you wanting a short just so you can pack it...

    Hi CD, Thank you for posting that video! It definitely helps me to understand more of whats happening in regards to the apparent temp/blackening issues that have been mentioned here on FC. First of all, your breath control appears good (in my opinion, at least as judging from the movement of...

    Hi, When we have units with a lower calibration, they will be made available as replacements to existing purchasers on FC who find that their units are too hot. Until then, we suggest that existing FC purchasers please at least try the current setting if you already have one, as per the...

    I just read it -- good points all around. Basically, what I am hearing is that the device needs to be calibrated to be a lot cooler -- that most owners of existing vaporizers will be expecting to have no possibility of any blackening. Is this correct? Making cooler is something we can do...

    Hi Progress, In regards to the video -- no pulses were applied, and yes, it is likely that the material touching the screen in the corners was darker than that on the center top. How dark? -- I am not sure. Could there have been some blackening in that test? Yes, it is possible. In an...

    With the unit empty, with continuous power applied for over 60 seconds, and no draw at all, the absolute hottest part of the screen (in the inside corner near the bottom) can reach about 480 deg Fahrenheit. This is the absolute max that we allow for. In normal operation, the target temp is 385...

    Hi lwien, Understood. Actually, we are trying to gear up in a manner consistent with a larger market -- people who are tired of always having to deal with no-smoking zones -- and who want speed and stealth. As I mentioned earlier, there are a lot of people in this category. We know we have...

    Hi Progress, Thanks for reminding me. For the convenience of readers, here is a trimmed quote of CD's observations in that post: In regards to the uniformity of the heating, it is true that material that is directly touching the screen, particularly in the bottom corners, will generally heat...

    Hi, Thanks for the clarification. For whatever its worth, it is not my intent to make our company seem grandiose. For my own part, my viewpoint (as you can probably tell) is closer to engineering and product development than to marketing (hence my awareness of the complexities involved)...

    Hi, In regards to the picture, I should have put a coin or something in to indicate scale. The screen is actually about the same size, although it is somewhat flatter in shape and is bonded differently. I should have mentioned that in the caption (sorry). In the previous side-hole build, we...

    Hi, You are welcome to your opinion. In fact, it is to gather opinions and provide information that I even joined the FC forum. I can accept that not everyone likes the look of the device -- that was expected. We have other units with other "looks" that are in development, so we tend to...
