91iso or 70 is for the cleaning of the cu and such

I don't think you need the kit now. You can always get it later. The pad is used as a spacer if you don't want to fill the oven, and for concentrates. I use and prefer a screen instead of using the pad. Just cut a wedge out of it so it looks like pacman. Then fold it into a cone. It helps keep the cu clean too.

Nice find there. and a nice sale they have going on.
I see it's the same price for Mighty's lifetime warranty, and Solo & others. It seems like a third party insurance plan. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that...
Hey, they don't offer it on the Plenty!?!?

Bah, the housing of my Crafty broke off, thanks to the Vapefiend waterpipe adapter and my own stupidity. I still can put the CU on top because only one side broke but the waterpipe adapter doesn't work, back to connecting it to my Orbiter.
Don't know if I'm gonna send it in, I have 70+ hours on the thing and it's still working perfect.

I'm gonna dig around a bit. But I'm curious as to if the batteries on this are improved at all.
I don't care if it needs charged often, that I can only get a few bowls per charge or that it charges quickly/slowly....(hope quickly though) but what I do care about is degradation of the batteries over time. How long after getting a new unit are you guys starting to notice a decrease in battery charge/performance?
I was hesitant on the Crafty because of that. For what it's worth, I've had a Mighty about 7 months now, and stock I could get 7/8 sessions out of it fully charged. Now I get about 6/7. A very slight amount of degradation iMO. Best guesstimate for me is that I've used it probably 150 (at least 100, doubt more than 200) times, cold start to temp, vape, turn off.
Edit: I'm vaping at 385-395. I've gotten more sessions on low temps. Just was averaging it out.
Just something that caught my eye. Not really in the market right now, but I reckon that this (or other portables) will be on my shortlist next time VAS hits.

The battery performs almost the same, I can get 3/4 sessions before the battery is out of juice.
I had the WPA-adapter on the Crafty, then it dropped on the ground, I don't recommend the WPA because you can see that the housing don't like the WPA-adapter, I only had it for 5 days
Now i'm back using the stock CU and my whips with the Orbiter

I've had several Anker brand battery backups and have been very pleased with them. Just check out Amazon and see which size has the best value at the moment. The Crafty battery is 2600 mAh I believe, so you can use that number to determine how many charges you can get out of the pack. Example, a 10,000 mAh battery pack could recharge the Crafty ~4 times (10,000/2,600).
I'd currently recommend the Anker E5. Great price, reliable, fast charging. Hard to beat. The E5 has 16,000 mAh battery, so you should get 5, maybe 6 charges from it.
I use these at festivals for power for my phone/vape all the time. Life savers.

I just got off the phone with Christine, a Storz & Bickel rep, they called me back after I had sent an email inquiry on my Crafty replacement and requested a call. I told her I had concerns that in about a years time, I've had to warranty my Crafty 5 times and this seemed excessive. 
She did advise that their engineers are actively seeking improvements and I should not worry because.....
The 2 year warranty is reset when they send a new replacement Crafty!
I think most here thought and possibly were told otherwise. I told her a different rep had advised me the warranty is only for the initial 2 years only. She repeated herself and assured me that was their policy regarding warranty. So now I am quite happy I did not upgrade to a Mighty.
I also mentioned to her about how @Vambo1980 (I didn't mention specific names) fixed his Crafty to be more reliable with his internal modifications. She did say she would pass the information along to the engineers.
