lowfront: I just listed that for those of us that bought the MFLB as a cheap alternative to other portable vapes and don't want to spend extra dough on yet another accoutrement. Buying chargers and batteries jacks up the price a good bit and this does it even more...

right i understand.... i'm just saying if you want the full potential out of the LB

go to your grocery store and buy a coffee ginder. I found my best one at my stop and shop on sale for $8


So you figure for the cost of a sandwich and drink you can maximize your bud and efficiency of the LB.



After using a coffee grinder you will throw your 4 piece away.

You really need to stop making relative statements as if they're facts, on this forum anyway. Cheap is relative and "expect the world" is very vague. And what's perfect? $85 or the LB? Both? Perfect in what way?

Not true for everyone, so you're better off not stating it as an absolute certainty. I choose not to use a coffee grinder for anything but my coffee beans. I also grind for vapes other than the LB. While the LB does great with the finest grind you can get, that's not true of every model. No other vape model I can think of has a screen as fine as the LB for instance, and that's a consideration when choosing a consistency. Sometimes I use just a 4 pc. grinder, and if it's appropriate, such as grinding for the PD, I'll give it a 2nd run through with a 2 pc. I like using hand grinders. They work fine for me. I do not like putting my herb through a coffee grinder so it's a no go and always will be.

You need to start qualifying your 'opinions' with 'I like', 'I refer', 'in my opinion', etc. Things go smoother here if you refrain from stating opinion as fact. In fact it's a rule. ;)

UPS just dropped off my Maha C9000 charger. I haven't had a chance to use it yet. I'm gonna have to use the "break in" mode for a lot of my batteries, so it could take a while to get through all my batteries. :lol:

According to the instructions, under break in mode:

Requires 39 to 45 hours to complete




Ok, here's a quick update. I've only had this charger since last evening, so this will not be a thorough review. I decided to use "break in" mode for all my batteries. They all really need to be brought back to life.

I started with my oldest batteries, the Eneloops. It's not done yet, but it says they are all over 3000 MAH. This is nice because I can actually see the progress of the batteries, and the end result. So far, I like it a lot. :)

Not sure if yal know this, but there is multiple grinder forums on here that we can all discuss grinders and such in, instead of filling the MFLB forum with coffee grinder vs 2 piece vs 4 piece vs cheap vs expensive...

For all you guys that have 4 piece grinders: Grind up your herbs and put two quarters in the chamber. Grind and then shake it up for 5 minutes or so. Super fine, and lots of kief


Or you get get my coffee grinder recommendation and watch your kief instantly compress in perfect form to the top of the coffee grinder.

I grind a gram at a time and get a shit ton more kief collected then any 4 piece grinder I have had. Including using a nickel or quarter.

I'm just praising because you don't know what your missing. Finer the grind, the better the LB works. Can't imagine still using a standard 4 piece grinder. Major improvement on hits and efficiency.
Honestly if your able to get a shit ton more kief then me you propally wont get that high off ur bud. The technique i said works amazing b/c when u put it the freezer it helps the tichs fall threw the screen. Unlike yours mines pure kief if u get way more then me u propally have plant matter in there to. Doing this also makes ur bud not as strong.

And dude stop saying coffee grind is the finest grind of them all. Any technique u use to break up bud will get it fine no matter what. Some just take longer then others but at the end of the day they all get the job done. Stop giving ppl bad advise and figure out the difference between fact and opinion.

O.K. back to batteries. Just picked up four duracell 2650 mah for 17.00 bucks at walgreens.
They were dead , so I charged them up on the standard sanyo quick charger for the
next 4 hrs. Boy! did they make that trench glow and heat up.
My 5 month old blissville originals do not light up like these new joints. :/
This definitely improves the LB's performance. :o
Now if I'm not careful the herb will turn black quickly.
I can now pull much stronger, quicker on
the thing and get huge rips. :ko: :ko:

amen...i think everyone has got their points across anyways by now.

40 hours to condition the batteries, thats crazy, hope you can do 4 at once at least. Its gunna take you a whole week to condition all your batteries vicki lol

LBs are still in customs since monday morn, this sucks.
 
Mr. Smoke No More,

Lo

Combustion free since '09
umm, yeah! I did the break in on 4 at one time with my new MAHA charger. It took almost 2 days ;) Thankfully I had plenty of batts and my other charger lol

Viki: your batteries are not actually going to be charged to over 3000 mah. They will (hopefully) be near what they're supposed to be (2000-2100 mah). The 3000+ reading is related to the way the C9000 breaks in batteries. Check the instructions that came with it, or check out http://www.mahaenergy.com/store/mhc9000faq.asp.

I do have another charger, and other batteries that I can use while I'm cycling all the batteries. :)

Where are you seeing it for $85? And I heard many rave reviews for the VG saying it is one of the best vapes under 100, hence why I got one.

If you use the FC-1 code on puffitup.com, you can get them for $84 US, with free shipping in the states (alaska and hawaii excluded i believe).

The VG is really quite different from the LB. Both have their pluses and minuses as a portable. Depending on how you plan to use a portable, either is a good choice, regardless of the price difference.

My Maha C9000 came in today....I have 2 original MF batts on the Refresh & Analyze mode and 2 new Powerex 2700's on Break in mode. Curious to see what it will do to the older batts....I guess I will know in about 40 hours :o.

edit: is there any special way to peel these Powerex 2700's? any tricks?

How is their shipping and packaging? And what bonuses does it come with? I don't care for the battery or a grinder, seeing as I already had rechargeable AA batteries, and a coffee grinder.

Their shipping was fast for me, took 3 days i think, to Chicago. Packaging was good, the package came when i wasnt here so my parents held on to it till i was home. They had no suspicions. Came with a free 4pc grinder(which is alright), and a bag of spearmint herb.

Again I don't care for the grinder, you think if I ask them they could drop the grinder and lower it 2 bucks?

I didn't take his opinions as fact. I took them as opinions, and I would think most ppl who read the post would have taken it as opinion, too.

I don't think that one needs always to preface an opinion by saying that it's an opinion in order for it to be treated as an opinion. Of course, there are times when it is, indeed, warranted. I seem to recall a series of posts - not sure just which thread it was in, but I think it was this one - where the poster was making claims about sugar having an effect on one's high. Now those posts definitely warranted calling out because the poster was making what seemed to be statements of medical fact.

More often than not, though (and that's just my estimation, or my opinion, if you'd like) a post here is opinion. I don't need a sign to tell me where the sky is each time I look up. Assuming that most posts here are opinion, or contain opinion, it would probably be more efficient to preface a statement of fact by saying that it's a fact!

But that's just my opinion lol

Oh, and I prefer a coffee grinder for my LB lol. I've only had the LB for a couple of weeks now and it's great (though its light went out :()

Why dont you just sell it to a friend or even better give it to someone as a gift. Your allready getting a good discount if u use a coupon propally saving 10+ bucks so dont be getting greedy.
