I think you're right; perplexity.ai says S&B discontinued the original mighty.

I'd go with the OG mighty; no learning curve, easy on the lungs, discreet, vapes wax and hash. I haven't seen any portables that have come out since then that cover all those bases. the biggest complaints about the mighty are its cost and slow-ish heat-up time (~2 min); if those aren't...

there's a learning curve with these (I have one). once you've figured it out, you might be able to get clouds with minimal coughing, but the vapor path's a short metal tube between the chamber and you (unless you do water filtration).

fwiw, this is what perplexity.ai says on the subject: there is research suggesting that vaporizing cannabis may be less harmful than smoking it, particularly in terms of respiratory effects. However, it's important to note that vaping cannabis still carries risks and is not without potential...

I don't think vaping's been around long enough for there to be much if any good research on its health effects relative to smoking, even more so re comparing vaping concentrates to vaping flower. if you're looking for a vaping device that's easier on your lungs, pay attention to the length of...

I just got one from POTV, $280 with the current discount

call me naive, but I think that if there was a significant body of high-quality research implicating cannabis (not smoking) in health issues, it'd be front-page news. for now, the only area of real concern seems to be that heavy use during adolescence can cause long-term problems.

a few favorite sativas (or leaning): kali mist, power plant, cinderella 99, sleestack, snowcap, cinex. I usually go for sativas, but my favorite indica (or leaning) is purple arrow.

I'm in Seattle; people are mostly smoking, using cart pens, doing medibles. I occasionally smell what's probably a vaporizer, but virtually never see anyone using one.

sorry about that. maybe it'll get picked up by a site without a paywall.

my sweet spot for avoiding both tolerance issues and too much mood disruption is 1-2x/week - but that's just me...

I find this very insightful. I'm a media junkie but have never seen anyone make this observation - it makes total sense. thanks!

idiocracy

lightning quest mini-review: I bought it b/c I wanted a portable for wax, was impressed by the lightning pen's flavor (if not the bowl size). I hoped to get ~10 hits from one (3 rice grains?) load. I didn't expect much for ~$50, but was pleasantly surprised. most people will probably use this...

I did a couple cycles with the cap off to get a sense of the timing. when I did the 'hold the fire button' it took a few seconds before it started producing vapor. it seems like the better option is to double-click for the auto-fire, then do a quick click to stop it when you're done with your...

based on a couple tries I'd say Matt hit it out of the park with this. it's like a lightning pen with much bigger (3X?) capacity. it also has 2 functions I don't think(?) the lightning pen has: you can hold the power button to heat, and a single click shuts off auto-fire. it also seems very...

no way. I park near the concert hall or nightclub, vape in the car, go to the event. by the time the event's over, I'm good to drive.

matt posted a video of himself using one (I lost the link...), got 4 or 5 rips off one load. the lightning pen's good for 1 or 2 rips; I own one, love the flavor, but its tiny capacity means reloading if you want more than 1-2 hits - not an issue at home, but a pain if I'm out and about (e.g. in...

I kind of wondered about that - thanks for chiming in!
