You're absolutely right about AAA cells working fine in the MH-C9000. Not sure how I missed that, but I went back and edited my message; thanks!reece said:You can charge AAAs with the MH C9000. Also, folks can purchase C or D size adapters, which are used with AA batteries, so there is no need for a different chargers for those sizes.Haywood said:You can't use it to charge AAA or C or D or 9v batteries, and you can't use it to charge Alkaline or LiIon batteries.
Good points. The only reason I haven't bought any yet is I don't have anything that uses C or D batteries. I never considered capacity. I think you just saved me some money. Thanks.Haywood said:I don't buy into using a AA cell in a C or D holder except in emergency situations. A real C or D cell has way more capacity than a AA cell, and I can't imagine anyone who would spend the money for a MH-C9000 using a AA cell in a D holder. D cell NiMH batteries are 12,000 mAH rated; why would one use a 2,000 mAH AA cell in its place?

Nope, but the MFLB instructions say "batteries may be left in the charger between sessions, provided that the charger remains plugged into the wall."MoeOnTheMoon said:It's not a dumb question, driesclothes. Some battery chargers do require that you remove the charged batteries, and others do not. However I don't have the stock charger so I can't answer your question. ;-D
But for others who may ask the question about their chargers, it depends on the charger and you have to read the instructions. Did the LB charger come with instructions?
With rare use I would go with a low self-discharge battery like eneloop. There are other brands which may have a better fit though.jklasd said:ive been out of the loop on the battery choice recently since i rarely use my MFLB (nothing against it, but im rarely away from my DIY hakko or PD). i was using the stock batteries, and just those, ever since i got my LB about 4-5 months ago, until i lost one. yikes!. now i need new batteries. am i to understand that the ENELOOP AA 2000 MAH low-discharge would now be a better choice then the powerex 2700 MaH? ill only have to buy 4 since i rarely use it and find i can get 2 trenches per battery(at least). thanks guys.
I had the exact same thing happen , I been putting chapstick caps on my batteries and it works perfectAGBeer said:Ive heard stories of the batteries getting hot but this was unreal.
vape4health, thanks for that tip. I've been doing that and it's a great idea.vape4health said:I had the exact same thing happen , I been putting chapstick caps on my batteries and it works perfectAGBeer said:Ive heard stories of the batteries getting hot but this was unreal.
I look to order one soon and hope it comes with eneloopsAcaseofchaos said:...If the launch box doesnt come with eneloop batteries...
I haven't used Powerex. Currently my rotation is 4 of the Ansmann and 2 stock from magic-flight (not lsd). The Ansmann are newer and have never been charged with a fast charger. The stock was only charged on an Energizer 15 minute charger until I got the Ansmanns. I haven't noticed any big difference in power. The Ansmanns last longer. But I don't use The Box everyday. I may go weeks without using it.MoeOnTheMoon said:Reese, those batteries look good; have you been using those low charge batteries? How do they compare to the stock batteries or Powerex in terms of power? (that is, I have some batteries that just don't give a good strong light on the LB. Do they light up the LED strongly and give at least 3-4 good pulls?)
I have PD and am looking for a "travel vape." Is the LB easy enough to clean that I could clean it thoroughly enough to do airline travel w/it in my checked luggage?Beezleb said:The Magic Flight Launch Box
(brought over from other MF thread)
I would say this is a great vape to compare mainly with any lighter based portable vape such as the vapor genie and I would compare it to the vapir oxygen at the far end to the ubie on the low end.
I have to say it is a very good solid little vape that should appeal to those who are looking for a vape to bridge small gaps of time between a desktop or home vaporizer.
The construction is simple and should not have breakage issues as other more complicated portable vapes have.
It also is a very fast vape to use, generally in the time frame it takes one to smoke a bowl or smoke a joint. It also has very little to barely noticeable smell and it is totally silent. Do not expect much visible vapor but it does get you where you want to be.
Any where you may smoke a joint, bowl, cigarette or whatnot you can use the launch box. I fit mine in an eyeglass case with a zipper, it holds everything perfectly or it can easily fit into a pocket. I recommend grinding your weed fine.
For those in the market for a quick inexpensive, functional portable vape that can be easily used in outdoor and indoor locations this little box just might be the magic you are looking for. It is with confidence that I recommend the magic flight launch box in that respect.
