I got my new Crafty version 2.10 and 44xxx SN. My OG Crafty was 2.08 in the 24xxx SN range. I believe VaporNation was behind on their inventory because that seems like a large number difference in 6 months but that's beside the point. If I had it to do over again I would deal with Puff it Up after hearing many good things about them as a vendor.

As for the return process it was rather painless in my experience..... Shipped using priority USPS to get it to Cali in 2 days for $7 from the east coast. They received last Friday and I believe it was Tuesday I got the email with tracking on my new Crafty. It arrived today so that is 8 days total to send off and receive the new one.

So far so good as I have fully charged the new Crafty and can definitely say that it seems more "solid" with no squeaks or creeks and the CU seems to "click" in better than my old one. Only did 1 heat up test with it empty at this point and it went from 70 to 410F in 2mins 1sec. I will try with material once I am in the comfort of my own home.

In summary its not that bad of a process but it sure sucks to have to send it in!

Recently, my cloud buddy from vapexhale fell and a piece broke off. As I recall, the piece was 50 plus shipping. I found a replacement on this site,
http://www.vapingfans.com/glass.html
for $16 shipped. I just received it today and can confirm, the quality is just as good as the piece it replaced.
While I was browsing their site a couple of things caught my eye. They have the glass mouthpiece for the Crafty / Mighty for $9 and the water adapter for $15. Although shipping is free, it does take about 2 weeks to arrive, but they use bombproof packing.

Didn't know if I should've bought the Mighty or the Crafty but then started thinking about stealth and Crafty was the way to go. I've been using my Pinnacle pro DLX Since 2014 and thought I would never find another like it till today when my new Crafty arrived in was BLOWNED away, kinda like going from shity Atmos to a good old pinnacle pro. I'm just writing this for those of you that are thinking about buying a Crafty and in my opinion, stop thinking about the price tag and just do it you will definitely not going to be disappointed. One thing I hated about my Pinnacle was that I could feel the heat in my throat but the Crafty changed all that real quick and the taste boy oh boy the taste is xtreamly good. Hope that helps and Happy Vaping guys

First post guys so be kind! I just got my Crafty yesterday and gave it a try last night. It is a firmware version 2.10 and a serial number 43xxx. The unit feels really solid and it's performance was amazing! I have owned an Arizer Solo for over a year and have been very pleased with it. I hope that the Crafty is as dependable as the Solo but I have read the posts concerning the number of defects. I am hoping that I will be one of the lucky ones. I have also pre-ordered a grasshopper and am hopeful that it will arrive in my lifetime. Be well folks!

What happens to warranty when you independently sell something? Does it transfer to the buyer, or do they have to use the seller's name if they need repair service?

Quick question guys I'm looking to purchase the Crafty 14mm glass attachment but with no luck. I looked on ebay and found one but I don't want to pay $24 For shipping when the actual pice only costing $20. Now my question is, does anybody know any sites in the US that actually carries them so I don't have to pay a ridiculous amount for international shipping? Thank you in advanced. Also looking for the glass mouthpiece but that I can find easily. Would be nice to find them both in under one price, then I wouldn't mind spending $24 for shipping it just sucks to pay more in shipping then what you are actually paying for the product it self.;)

Does the Storz and Bickel site still give free next day shipping ?

I believe that policy is for things other than vapes.
Vaporizers ship express for free in US and Canada, see shipping policy/chart on their website.

Please re-visit their site, shipping policy page. There's a chart at the top of the page. UPS Next Day Air is what it reads and next to that, under Vaporizer, it says Free. No slick move, really.

Oh I am sorry, I looked at the box that said "Free shipping worldwide on orders over $ 25 and assumed that they meant that they didn't do express unless it was 350 or above. Seriously, I know I can come off as a smart aleck but I am grateful that you showed me that, I am ordering one!

Wow thank you that's perfect. Have you ever ordered from them before?

I've never ordered. I saw this site posted either here on the Crafty or Mighty threads or possibly r/vaporents and bookmarked it.

edit: search here for "vapingfans" and you'll get a bunch of hits, and some where people have ordered stuff.

Cool sounds good. Just placed the order and got my confirmation number, since it's coming from China I'll guess I'll just go get my Crafty make some bread and butter and a jug of coffee and play the waiting game.:rofl:

I am going to order from the official site just because I like the feeling. Honestly, I do not always have the money to do things like this but when I do I have to do it right! And the crafty looks like it is "right" for me. I am so excited about this haha.

Always do what is right for you. No guarantee of being successful but at least you know who to blame.

Hey guys,

I'm going to order a crafty but I do have some quick questions:
- is the app required to use it? I.e., is it necessary to set the temperature to something reasonable?
- I've heard about an issue with cheap batteries dying. Is this still the case?
- I've also heard that S+B support is shit; can concrete info on that?

Thanks a lot!

Hi peterchen
In my case I don't need the app. It is possible to vape without the app if you like 180 or 195°C. These are the temperatures which you can use without the app.

The batterie in the crafty is not the best but my second Crafty lasted over 220 hours with original battery. My third vapes for 177 hours and still does!

I had to deal 4 times (3times Crafty,one Mighty) with S&B customers service and I can say it is perfect. Never had to pay for battery or something else!

Thank you!
That was a helpful answer.
So, basically I can expect the battery to die but it'll be replaced by S+B, right?
Any idea what will happen after the 2 year guarantee? If the battery dies then, it's just broken, is it?
