    Discontinued The Firefly Vaporizer

    I'm new here, so I might be incorrect, but, it doesn't seem like the Firefly gets as much interest and/or excitement as other vaporizers on this forum. Yet, it receives amongst the most and best reviews from professional media sources. Am I missing out on better models (e.g., Mighty, Crafty...

    I've been experimenting with technique given my vaporizing preferences. In the quest for using smaller amounts of weed per session, I tried using a couple of nuggets (pieces) of herb. It filled up about 1/3 of the bowl. I preheated for about 10 seconds and inhaled slowly. The results: lots...

    Yes, you'd think it's a teaser based on the text. Yet, why show the old Firefly? Most teasers don't show anything or show a single image of the new item (thus the "tease"). Perhaps it's a reference to Firefly's own sense of it already being a paradigm shifting device. In that case, it's just...

    Thanks for your insight--makes sense. Although, I suppose raising the temperature for denser hits might be what some folks prefer. Using the concentrate pad would be an easy and safe "hack." Plus, it might save some battery life by raising the temperature quicker.

    Sometimes I just want a few hits. I suppose it's no big deal to put in more, but, I'm wondering if the concentrate pad might be useful.

    Would a Firefly concentrate pad (http://www.thefirefly.com/firefly-concentrate-pads.html) enable using less herb? I don't always want to use a full bowl. Even with on-demand convection, the entire bowl gets heated with each hit. I'd rather use the least amount of herb possible for a session.

    A few more comments as I've been using the Firefly (way too much): - I use the Firefly too much. It's so darn easy to use. Nearly instant user-initiated heat. Take a few tokes...go away...come back...more tokes.... It's an endless cycle of vaporizing. This device requires will power. - So...

    I agree! The design is not only nice to look at (although, I think the Pax, for example, is slicker), but it's highly functional. After reading some articles about the founders of the Firefly, I can appreciate Apple's influence on their design. Apple doesn't create the slickest products or...

    From Firefly's website: "Q: What is the heating element made of? A: The heating element is made of a proprietary, FDA-foodsafe super-alloy manufactured in the USA. Unlike cheap Nichrome elements, it does not break down under repeated heat cycling." Maybe not all the information I'd like, but...

    I agree with your overall assessment of the likely relative safety. In fact, reading your many comments had much to do with my decision to purchase the Firefly and enjoy it relatively worry free (I won't blame you if we discover we've been inhaling some awful chemical :lol:). And, thanks to...

    I read the pages regarding the air path and that's why I deliberately didn't claim the air travels over the circuitry or battery compartment. There are two small openings for the coil in which, theoretically, ambient air could enter. However, the physics of air traveling the path of least...

    First review.... I won't bother repeating everything others have written except to say the reviews are quite accurate. I'll add, however, the learning curve isn't uniquely difficult. I don't have lots of experience with other vaporizers, but, they all require some "learning." Regarding the...

    Been lurking for awhile...first time poster. In fact, I don't post on any forums, but, this one has been so helpful I felt compelled to contribute. Or maybe legally vaping weed is my only compelling interest. :lol: To the point.... Thank you to those who posted about the new battery not...
