420 vape zone has a review up, plans to do a longer one once he's done more 'research', but he thinks the biggest change is battery life, as good or better than the mighty now.
Looks like the old Crafty is getting cheaper, about the price they should be now,

Sorry is
Sorry I read the article he doesnt mention an unsealed airpath. Also most reports are of 6 sessions and he's claiming 4? I'm a bit thrown by VC having such a negative review
Here is one cool teardown by the VC.https://forum.vapelife.com/discussion/6097/crafty-review-i-cant-believe-this/p1

Never. Really.....I just use a NV loading tool scoop and never saw the value of the loading tool.
Same with the plastic grinder. I know many who really like the grind from it, but to me this type of plastic (which is NOT the PEEK of the vape's exterior case) is not really suitable as a grinder. Just me, but I wouldn't miss either of these items.
Not including the brush, however, is a travesty and a mistake that will piss people off unnecessarily.

The Crafty+ has just arrived at @VapoShop EU and they offer us 10% off and free ship (so €268.20 w/code I think)

That new little disc in the center of the bowl must be one way how it works differently or quicker, and it looks like something other than aluminium.
Maybe a radiation disc or some kinda valve?
I used to get metallic taste from an OG Solo bowl (I thought) and i liked aluminium because it was neutral to me.
Maybe the material used here or the difference in heating is why some users are saying the vapor is different.
But if it tastes like my OG Solo I'll sell it again!
And we'll have to do a mass protest if they make the Mighty taste different or not better!

Apple are banning vaping related apps (apparently)... This changes things up a bit
Edit; reading the article, it's clearly targeting ecig apps, but will the likes of s&b or pax get all caught up in the mess? Either way, it's an uncomfortable development

Yep, it's gone from the app store. Damnit! I had it on my phone, but I cleared everything off recently. I wasn't in any rush to re-download right away, since I knew that I could go and get it whenever I wanted...well fuck a duck, who woulda ever saw this coming? Apple is cuntish!

Strange, I still see them and can download them (all the vape apps I’ve used). Are you logged in with the same account you initially downloaded them with?

Just finished up some of my Crafty+ initial thoughts and figured I would share them here. Overall very happy with the battery improvements, not very happy with the lack of accessories.
I did do an extended battery life test where I never let the unit fully cool down in between bowls (so not a terribly realistic real life test) but I was trying to stress the battery and see if it would over-heat like my old crafty. I ended up getting 8.5 bowls and 61 minutes of straight use.
I was only turning the unit off in-between bowls long enough for the temp to drop ~30 degrees so I could start the next bowl back at the original 356 temp
Here are the notes from the marathon session:
Here are the AVB piles from the 9 bowls (even the 9th in the front middle was basically finished, but I think there was still at least one more rip so I didnt consider it finished)
Can't wait to test the battery in the cold/snow and see how it holds up for Skiing!
Let me know if you guys have any questions and have a great day!

Great to hear your impressions so far @BuzzDanklin
The PAX3 (and maybe 2?) had no charger plug and that was branded and priced as a premium vape.
They seemed to get away with it more by never including it with their USB format, but it is surprising when things are dropped that were previously included.
If the new housing material works out it will be nice to see these things not crack with heat and age.

No.
thanks for the awesome review and serene pictures!... though i'm not sure what to make of your experiment other than you needed to an excuse to justify getting really high.
i have heard it said that a conduction vaporizer has a different high signature than a convection one... and the way s&b heats up the oven using both methods gives theirs a unique signature that other vaporizers have difficulty reproducing
do you feel this is true? or in other words, do you feel that an equivalent amount of herb in another vaporizer is less potent than that amount used the Crafty+?
