Help me decide on my next portable - Update

[m0sh]

EDIT:
It now comes down to P80 vs TM

Hey guys, I would love your help deciding on my next portable vape.

There are few options I would like and I will explain my situation as well.

Currently I own a cloud EVO, Solo II and Ghost MV1.

The EVO is great and its my main device.
The solo II was my semi backup/out of house(friends or hotel) vape for a while, but I feel that its too slow and not strong enough anymore for me, which is why I got the Ghost.

I never thought I'd get the Ghost, but I took one hit and I was hooked, it was so good, and honestly, if I recall, I tried the crafty and the vapor and taste wasn't as good as the solo, so I gave that up.

The Ghost is a hit and miss for me, I just can't get steady results with it, it doesn't always extract fully, and I can turn my solo and finish the bowl.
Also my latch door is broken

I spend a few weeks each year in a medical retreat and everytime I live the house to an hotel or something I would like to have a vape, I though the ghost can do that, but it failed.

So I'm back to square one...

It seems to me that there are few options on my mind.

1. Mighty
2. Tera
3. Tinymight
4. Tetra P80

I would like to get higher much faster than with the solo II, I'd like good results, it may still not be in the same level of the EVO, but still, I just wonder if after a good hit from the Ghost, if I can go to the mighty, I remember back when comparing it to the crafty, I actually preferred the session to take longer, not sure why, because now I prefer a quick session.
I prefer having a vape that is easy to use and fairly easy to clean.
I fear the tera would be too harsh for me and I wouldn't want to have to mod it.

I wonder if the tinymight can fit my needs or it won't be as comfortable as the mighty for home use.
Using water is a bonus, although with the portable machine not needed.

Can I say that the Tetra P80 is more of a mixture between mighty and the tinymight, I mean, it can fit both usage types? or the tinymight can also do that?
Not sure when you can order a P80 tho?

I saw people saying they left all other vapes after tinymight...so I really don't want to buy a mighty and be bummed...

However, ghost is still alive, maybe I could wait with all demand for now? How does it compare to the TN/P80?

Damn, too many decisions and so many vapes with different usage, I need them all.

Please, your 2 cent is needed

While your MV1 is still more or less alive, the company Ghost is dead, so it's wise to look for an alternative anyways.

Both the Tinymight and the Tetra P80 can be run in on-demand and session mode, but I don't see similarities with the Mighty at all, as those are convection vapes while the Mighty is a hybrid, leaning heavily towards conduction. The Mighty is also a strictly session vape, which makes it seem not quite ideal to get what you want quickly.

I don't own the P80, but it's pretty safe to say that this is indeed a very reliable, hard&fast hitting vape. The Tinymight would meet your needs nicely too, maybe even being a bit easier to use and handle (again: I don't own and haven't tested the P80).

For more info on how to order the P80 directly from LaMart, have a look in the dedicated thread.

Well I thought P80 is easier to handle...hmmm

How much do you pack in a bowl for TN? do you have to clean it after every hit? (when spent) does it take a while?

You are right about the ghost.

Let me be clear, I mostly use the ghost as a "session" , well I would just like to get a few hits in a row to get going, its not like having one and leaving it.
Might session being only 5-6 minutes could be OK. with the solo I would get 15, which is an issue.

I like the TN form factor the most, tho I always preferred options and flexibility.

The thing about Mighty, will it be "strong" enough for me after trying the ghost?
The solo is not the same anymore, its ok, but if I need to share it with my wife, its not ideal.
With TN, we can just have one hitters and pass or with the mighty, a quicker pass it on.

Honestly, I like both options, but have to settle on one.
I know for now, I cannot just take the ghost to the hotel, I'll have to take the solo.

Will all 3 can do better?

 

[Siebter]

With „TN“ you mean „TM” (Tinymight), right?

Well I thought P80 is easier to handle...hmmm

I don't think the P80 is complicated to use, it's just I don't own it, but do own the Tinymight, which is a *very* simple to use device (a dial to set the temp & a button to hit it) while the P80 is *potentially* more complicated as it is based on a boxmod with more buttons, a screen, different modes etc. – but I personally don't see this as being a very high obstacle. Depends on where you are coming from.

How much do you pack in a bowl for TN? do you have to clean it after every hit? (when spent) does it take a while?

The chamber of the TM can be set easily for each session and takes between .05 and ~.3g, though I have seen some examples in the TM thread that go even way higher. It's actually easy to maintain, you definitely won't need to clean it after each hit. :-) Not even each session. Beside blowing the abv out of the chamber and a little brushing after a session (not mandatory either) I clean it every 10 to 15 sessions. When stirring (which I don't do), you might have to clean it more often.

The difference between a session and an on-demand vape is actually a technical one and not dictated by how many hits you take in a row. A Mighty for example just won't allow you to take whatever number of hits and then leave it to get back to it later, once it's switched on, the next ten minutes are booked until your herb is fully spent. On-demand vapes on the other hand allow you to have a session-type session too, only that you are able to decide how long the session will last.

The thing about Mighty, will it be "strong" enough for me after trying the ghost?

Personally I would say no, but that depends on a ton of variables. The Mighty can kick ass without a doubt, but it's not what I would call a fast and hard hitting vape.

As for Mighty, I got to thank you of getting me off the "fence" about it.
I have used it before and I think I didn't like the hits as my solo 2 so I guess you're right it won't be a big improvement, I'm actually chasing the on demand hit like you said.
So just to be honest, I'm going away with my wife in 2 days and I was just worried I won't be getting high with her on the solo, that's why I opted for the Mighty now, but to be honest, the more I read people talk about the TM, makes me want to get it.

I guess I can understand what you say about the P80 not being as simple, if we can compare it to an iPhone vs Android, the apple is just easy to use and can be used in one way while the android is super easy as well but much more flexible, but in order to get your wanted experience you need to invest just a bit of time.

So it now comes down to P80 or TM.
I was not able to see how to order a P80, it only looks to me that new orders will start next year? that's a long time to wait if that's the case.

Back to what's important, I saw Troy's review and was super impressed, I hope I can also get a WPA, it looks legit, and you don't need to clean much - win.
I'm a guy who stirs, so it would probably be annoying just to soak the cooling unit, I assume using a Q-tip is not enough...I'd probably get a few cooling units just to be on the safe side...

I wonder if anyone who owns a P80 can chime in...
I don't like cleaning often

For the P80 you need to sign up to be on the email list. Is sells in drops, basically 15 or so units will go up for sale every month or longer, you'll receive a email a day or so beforehand and it's first come first served and competition is fierce

I see then, everything points to the TinyMight

Stempod from modpod labs or dreamwood rcv18.

If you want to replace the ghost. You are looking at another convection vape. If you don’t mind stirring every few hits or so, the firefly 2+ will pack a huge fucking punch.

I really hated the first FF, I got it for a few days in NYC a few years ago and I could not get a decent hit and I've tried everything, it just didn't work for me, so I might have rolled a joint instead /;

 

[badbee]

My alternative for when the MV1 isn't charged is the RBT Splinter Z, another high powered convection vape. The Z is fast and powerful but significantly hotter and is much better with a cooling stem. It's technically portable (like the MV1) but it's long and awkward on a mod and the stem needs to be carried separately. As RBT is also out of business (at least for the moment, again) you could look at other 510 convection vapes like the Stempod.

I hear that brother. I’ve had convection vapes and they all seem finicky. This 2+ though seems to always work for me without issue. A nice long hard pull for 10-15 seconds. Always hits me nice. Convection can be tricky though.

The Tinymight and P80 are both so popular you could get one of each and sell your least favorite for full price just to save someone the wait.

I have a Tinymight and like it a lot. After owning a Tubo X a few years ago I haven't come back around to try the Tetra P80 because I've been so pleased with the Splinter and Splinter Z and prefer their modular design for a vape that uses a box mod.

I don't think it's correct to describe the P80 as any combo of a Tinymight and a Mighty. The Mighty is a conduction session vape while the P80 and TM are on demand convection vapes.

Both of your finalists will be great for the fast extraction you're looking for. The interface and user experience is simpler on the Tinymight.

The Tinymight is also more portable since the P80 uses a ground glass joint that doesn't hold the stem. The vape and stem need to be carried separately and if you turn it upside down the stem will usually fall right out. My Splinters all have that limitation too and it doesn't slow me down for home use, just something to think about.

You mentioned using a P80 or Tinymight with water and both are excellent for that. I use my Tinymight with two fancy custom j-hooks and an upside-down Splinter stem as an 18mm WPA. The cooling is top notch, the flavor is improved, and the nuts and washers cooling unit gets less use and needs less cleaning as a result.

I own 2 mv1 vapes my next choice is a Tera3 which can go slow or be a Beast its on sale at city vaporiser for $119.00 I have never bought from this company but the price is right it says limited amount if legit they wont last long is my guess Everyone have a GREAT DAY

Hi, yes I will agree I was wrong on how I tried to described it...I already ordered the tinymight and i think i made the right choice, i really like the form factor and have a small vaporizer who might be able to challenge my EVO

Tetra P80 isn't a mixture between mighty and the tinymight. Tetra P80 has 4 coils, each coil is set inside a borosilicate glass tube. the technology is, when the hot coils heating the glass tubes, then it becomes a huge heater, for a portable device. image something like a portable EVO, . Mighty has a small heater, some aluminum tube , and a SS chamber so it has a conduction heating too. it has nothing to do with it, except the S&B capsules.

I've got TUBOx and it's like a portable ELEV8R , glass heating element (not from 1s , it takes about 15-20 seconds to get really hot for extracting a 0.1g sort of)

I believe the heating element of the Tinymight has abit more weight than TP80's coils, but considering the glass tubes the TP80 has bigger heater, more volume to it too.
tinymight gets to the temperature quicker than tp80 as i seen on reviews

it's a hard decision i won't lie

I went with a TM preorder just a couple days ago, but both options aren't ideal.
Both vapes would suffer dramatically a drop on the ground. P80 glass parts could break, while TM risks a dislodgement of the heating element and consequently no more even extraction.
At least TM is more pocketable using a short stem.

Well its much harder to get a P80...
Tinymight seems to be a bit more versatile, despite it looking the other way, I mean, its at least versatile enough.

 

[sickmanfraud]

I have both a TinyMight and a P80. I use the Tinyminght about 99% of the time.

IME the Tinymight extracts faster and more evenly than the P80.

And, frankly, I don't like the "rush" of trying to buy from LaMart. On my P80 order, they sent the wrong color stem even though I reminded them twice and then I was expected to send them the stem before they would send what I ordered.
