I have started breaking a whole flower into two or 3 pieces as I put it in the glass bowl. It is a good compromise for me and works well. I keep a set of cue tips and some moonshine on my night table to clean the glass and air ports around the porthole.
Had a friend over who owns a volcano and he was very impressed. He kept checking out the magnetic lid and just generally caressing the FF like I always end up doing. I love when you watch someone else and you can see the glow in the side ports. looks just like they are enjoying a pipe. The hold and feel is quite the same.
I did tell him that if he bought one an extra battery and the charger is pretty mandatory. Still think they should market the premium package instead of keeping it on the downlow. The extra battery really mitigates some of the only problems with the FF. (number of draws before battery drain)
I like to shallow discharge the battery too with an occasional deep discharge as L-ion prefers shallow discharge. So with the new battery I can switch out about when I estimate the battery is half empty.
Is it too soon to talk about a FF2? haha. Why not. I would love to see these things in the FF2
1. A bend at the bowl end with matching bend in lid. I would love to see the porthole more directly. Not too extreme of a bend just a few degrees. I don't want to make it non-pocket friendly.
2. Ability to vape with cord attached. This would help those with only one battery.
3. Improved screen retention system. Its prob just me and I think the screen still protects the ports but I don't like that it can move back and forth so easily.
4. More of a positive click in the on button, I don't mind the one as is but a little more button feedback would be nicer.
The lack of these features is hardly a deal breaker for me. I could find things about a Lamborghini I would change. haha.
I think this vaporizer begins a whole new category of vaporizer for me. It has become a portable vaporizer that doesn't leave the house. I don't need to drag a larger vaporizer around. I can go to the kitchen with it in my pocket and vape while cooking, going back into the living room to share some with my girlfriend. The vape then easily goes upstairs with me and takes up a nice spot on the nightstand while I play my Xbox and my girl watches the bachelor. We can pass it back and forth between us and it travels around the house without a hitch while giving a superior vape. In fact I am so attached to it in a personal way I wouldn't dare take it out of the house!
A good analogy would be those people like me that only have cell phones at home and don't need a phone dedicated just for the house. Another might be those that don't use a desktop at home because they have an ipad.

WildChild, If I slow the draw or really compact it in the bowl I get dark brown to black results. If I loosely break it up and dont pack so hard and draw evenly without effort I dont get super dark results.
