CAN I ask a question, Please?
What is the diameter of the Solo mouthpiece tube at the mouth end? At the heater end (what diameter fits into the heater)? Thanks!

I have a FireFly and a MFLB. I've ordered a Solo. Why?
The MFLB is a very compact and versatile manual wooden conduction device that's hard to control, but it can be done - in a pinch. It's totally pocketable, and stealthy. It uses cheap Ni-MH AA batteries. Their stuff is priced high for the materials used, but they're a cool US company with unconditional warranty, clever products. The MFLB can be shared if users are experienced, but it's a pretty small "bowl". It's quite efficient. The temp is uneven on the heating screen, and overheating in spots is hard to avoid. Fat clouds. A $20 kit offers concentrate pads, but that almost demands their power supply ($70). Their new Mau-Deeb vapes concentrates only, much hotter.
The FireFly is all-convection, gorgeous and provides exquisite vapor. Many people who are into flavor seem to agree it's second only to the Volcano. It's built like a 1958 Cadillac, the vapor path is glass and stainless steel, unusual design. A bit expensive? You can get highly baked ABV with a little effort, but the normal result is lower temp, say not over 400 deg F. That vaporizes the relevant fractions, with a lighter more awake head/body effect. The final fractions are more sedative, I don't normally want that last drop, it's doh-land and smells. There's a micrprocessor inside, but no LCD or settings, no preliminary heating, you just draw. The FF is pocketable, the vapor is barely noticeable if you don't push it, I use it in public all the time, it sort of looks like an elegant flip phone you're nibbling, you can palm it and the chrome and dark grey are somehow not very noticeable. It holds 0.02 to 0.2 grams of ground buds, great for one person. The custom removable 7.4 volt battery's good for two bowls and recharges in 45 minutes. A spare is a good idea. It's a one master vaporizer and takes some practice at first. Connecting to a water device is tricky. Concentrates can be vaped on a pad.
The Solo is an oven type conduction vaporizer, interesting because of the many temp settings, thermostat and easy interface to water devices via all glass adapters (if you can find one). It's not stealthy but can be concealed in a drink cup. It's evidently not as tasty, but easily shared or bonged in a set-and-forget it mode. It also makes fatter clouds. It will probably please most users.
If there could be only one, I'd probably stick to the FireFly, but I haven't got my Solo yet.
