I somehow lost the screen for my firefly 2+. Not that I ever used it anyways. Gonna be doing some nice huge rips on this bad boy tonight with some nice IPA beers. Second night alone with the dog.
I lost my screen for a while. I just took a regular pipe screen and cut it to size. So much better airflow, that even when I found the original I never used it again. I have had my firefly2 since preorder and still using it, although sparingly. I use it a few times a week. My main vape our two Dynavap bb9s. Oh yeah just ordered a spare battery from slick vapes. It was delivered today.I somehow lost the screen for my firefly 2+. Not that I ever used it anyways. Gonna be doing some nice huge rips on this bad boy tonight with some nice IPA beers.

I get the best results with either breaking up buds a bit and stirring to break them down more over the course of the session, or a very coarse grind. Finest grind I've used is a medium from a BCG. Coarser is better with the FF.Can someone clear up a discrepancy? I have seen posts that say the Firefly does the best with finely ground material, and then others that say you should not grind it up too fine. The manual itself simply states it should be ground.
For my Firefly OG I do a medium grind as well but someone on Reddit turned me on to these Amazon solid titanium 5/8 inch disks with holes that fit perfectly over the OG bowl. It keeps herb from getting stuck to the lid or flying down the air path. It also does seem to improve overall performance, promoting better air flow, even heating, and keeping the overall unit cleaner.Downside is the device gets a lot dirtier a lot quicker. And sometimes you get ground abv stuck to the top of the lid.
I second the idea of adding am5/8 steel or ceramic screen in the fireflys.

That screen looks like what I need too. Do they fit the original Firefly too?I second the idea of adding am5/8 steel or ceramic screen in the fireflys. I've been using my FF2 for almost 3 yr.
Thanks for this info.The Firefly 2+ has worked out better for me than I thought it would. Occasionally, I’ll have a bowl that doesn’t go so well but that is few and far between. I find a coarse grind works best and I just break up the buds or grind lightly. I do tap it out every few hits and stir it around. I’ve never used the app. I start at 3 for the first three hits, then go to 4 for the next three hits, and then to 5 for last four to six hits. A bowl will last me a day, with an average of 12 hits. I did buy an extra battery and the external charger. I also bought extra mouthpieces but I’m still using the original one after a year. I clean the unit after every 2-3 bowls and haven’t had any issues with it.

What screens?
Man I forgot about those I took those out first day .... thanks !I'm guessing the mouth piece screen....hopefully. If so....it is not really needed if you use whole buds or don't grind.
