Me too. :nod: I haven't used the Evo, but the FF2 definitely surpasses the Nano and the Solo in the flavor department (but then so does the FF1).

Late May sounds like forever! :p
My FF1 died so I hope the FF2 is better?

The flavor was good until it died!

In fairness I did buy it on the internet.
Maybe it was me?

I do plan on a FF2 when their ready?

Fake characters do not give excuses?

The EVO flavor is pretty incredible!
Then again it's a plug in!

Do you suspect it was a counterfeit? Because if it's legit, it might be under warranty. You should shoot FF an email with the serial number and see what they say.

I know improved reliability was one of the top goals of the re-designed FF. Fingers crossed!

You really should get it repaired. My warrantied ff1 I got back recently was better than either of the 2 or 3 fireflies I owned BRAND NEW haha. They really tweaked something for the better, and that is their old heater.

I'm a day 1 cash purchase when my store gets these.

I want a new portable this year.
Last year I was hoping the FF1 to be it.
Like I said it was my fault for internet buying?
When will the FF2 be available?
Maybe it's better?
The FLAVOR was amazing while it lasted. ( FF1)

First FF2 units should be shipping later this month. Hopefully. I'd guess if you ordered one now you might be waiting till late May or early June. Just a guess.

Better? Way better. Easier, more versatile thanks to multiple heat settings, much improved battery life. Flavor is almost as good as the 1, though not quite as cool. Still super-cool compared to say the Nano.

No contest. :lol:

I like the P2 a lot. It is about as stealthy as you can get. But either FF model is light years ahead in flavor. They are very different devices in almost every respect. Different tools for different applications. Don't sell the P2 unless you need the funds...you'll find it useful or even optimal sometimes, even if you use it a whole lot less. :2c:


Yes, quite different. Pax 2 is a much more ''involved'' vape. For starters, grinding fine is an absolute must (I use an MFLB Finishing Grinder to great effect), and even if I now pre-grind my bud for a night out (and carry in a JyAR), I still have to wait for the thing to heat up while my buddies are already puffing on their Js. The device also requires frequent, rather involved cleaning for the taste to remain decent (nothing beats that first sesh after a good clean!), and that's using an aftermarket screen and pusher. I'd say these aftermarket parts are pretty much a must for me because even tho my tolerance has gone up a bit I still very rarely do a full pack unless I'm with people. The pusher not only reduces the chamber, but enables a more even avb without having to stir at all. Without it the vapor path gets gummed up faster and you need a lil' stirring for best results.

All the above is, of course, pretty much the exact opposite of the FF2's ''plug and play'' nature. Save for the app, you just pack, engage the heat and go for it. I don't understand the people who are turned off by having to stir this one :rolleyes:. I mean, from what I've seen, it's just a few taps on your palm! That's like ''tipping" a J pretty much, nothing wrong with that. I also have absolutely no qualms with the frequent yet EXTREMELY simple cleaning it requires. Doesn't really get any easier than that from what I've seen.

While my Pax is great, I feel the FF2 will be a much better daily driver as it seems much less finicky and will allow me to have to think less and just go with the flow of things. It's not as stealthy as the Pax 2 (I don't think anything is :cool:) so the latter will probably be the one tagging along to hockey games/concerts/etc. but the vast majority of the time I'm just vaping out on the balcony in the backyard (indoors when the girl is out and about :D) or at a friend's place so stealth isn't a big factor for me. Plus, it can do concentrates (something I could dab into at some point) and will likely have firmware updates, hence new feature(s) and/or added functionality in the future, which not only extends it's lifespan in this fast-paced tech era, but keeps the unit itself simpler, which can only improve reliability.

Long story short, I'm very much looking forward to driving a pretty, flashy, modern, easy to use and ultra performing blue Tesla most days and taking out the ol faithful, seemingly immortal, elegant yet very inconspicuous Honda Civic when I don't want to stand out too much. This should be a very happy relationship indeed!

I don't think you'll be disappointed. Other than the waiting part, which is hard on all of us. :p

I must admit that as an early April pre-order, I've yet to go 24hrs without FF2 content showing up in my browsing history :drool:

p.s. I hope all these quotes work.... #noob

Great Scott!
Every preorder or crowd funder or any situation where the product is not ready to sell at the time of payment should begin with this.

Jon,

Completely agree. Unlike other companies peddling insect vapes, this is a proven company with a proven record of great customer service. They were smart to set up a window of April/May deliver for early preorders and we have no right to be angry or upset until June 1.

My hope is 4/20, expectation is early May and we will see.

does the angle of use matter with the ff2? Can it be held and used vertical without a difference in efficiency?

I just recently joined after reading thru this entire thread of the FF2. I am a retired produce manager of 47 years here in the finger lakes region of NY. I did back on 2/29 preorder me a blue FF2. Just like the rest of you I am patiently waiting my new addition to arrive. Retirement will be so sweet when I am able to fire up my shiny new toy and make some music with my close friends.The only vape I own right now is the DaVinci and it is such an old thing just like me. It works ok but it is not convection. Mitchgo61 you really sold me on the benefits of the FF2. I just hope the little bit of negativity we received from 1 out of a bunch of reviewers doesn't sour the anticipation we all have for this new and unexplored vape.

I had a FF1 and sold it sometime ago. Preordered the FF2.

I had the external battery charger for the FF1 and found it really useful. Would like to buy it again as it is compatible with the FF2. The FF2 does not come with a wall plug. The external battery charger does not come with a plug either. As I am in the UK I have to use a adaptor for the plug anyway.

The combined cost of an external battery charger and a new plug is rather expensive.

Is there a third party plug I can use? anyone know the voltage required? Is it printed on the external charger? Is there any plans to have an FF2 specific external charger? If so I'll wait.

OK just called over there and no chance of it arriving for the holiday

However he said end of April or beginning of May is first batch of orders shipping out and second batch end of May early June.

He said the goal was 4/20 but they didn't make it. Nice to deal with honest company and not one that says your order will ship in next few days or weeks or months!

No doubt they are a stand up, straight shootin company. Very good, conscientious customer service 'staff'. Real difficult to find these qualities nowadays. A real pleasure to deal with. However, doesn't change the fact that I've grown so incredibly impatient waiting. It's simply the anxiety of waiting for something that we all know is the Cadillac vape!! Cheers!

Yeah I agree. If I look at the vape critic YouTube video one more time it's going to drive me crazy, and the twitter feed with nothing interesting. At least I'll try for a week to focus on something else.....

Good news is we will be reviewing these soon and everyone else will be super jealous!

Hey guys, I had a question for those for those of you who owned the first model; how would you describe it when it comes to concentrates? Do you think FF2 is gonna be as good as a top shelf oil vaporizer? I already preordered mine but I'm still wondering if I should invest in an oil vape or a dabbing rig. Thanks!

Damn, epic fail... Well, looks like my Pax2 is coming with me on my 420 vacation.

Hey Stoney,

The high setting is meant for concentrates. It hits 500 degrees so it should be as good as any high end product. Checkout sneaky Petes review on YouTube he talks about concentrates and FF2
