hi everyone.. been reading this thread on and off for months and got many answers prior to registering and for that, thank you all..
I've been using MFLB since June of last year and , don't know if I am stupid or not but each and every one of them breaks after using it for a while.. I purchased 3 units and replaced them all within warranty already. So here's my issue (btw, I use LB 4-5 times a day)
week 1 : best thing in the world-- heats up in 2 seconds, vapor is visible.. I hold the battery max for 10 seconds and then when I exhale I see huge amounts of vapor clouds.. (using the sipping technique)
week 2 - 3 : LB gets a bit weaker, so I clean up with ISO , weekly - let it dry for about 3 hours or so, and to be able to get same amount of vapor, now I hold the battery about 12-14 seconds.
week 4 : visible vapor gets less and less, and now I use the LB with the PA only, and at its full power.
and by week 5 or 6 the trench gets ripped where the heating bars are and then I send it back and get a new one. Don't get me wrong their customer service is probably best in the world and if I ever do a business that involves selling a product, that's the model I will copy and implement to my bizz.. But it really gets annoying that the performance of the product is not the same after a while.. At some point I started using multiple LB's and rotate them to get a better quality but still, one by one - performance dropped and 2 of them already got ripped at the trench. I ordered the italian square APA Vaporizer and waiting to receive it in the mail.. If you share the same frustration or know something that I don't and could save me from breaking another box, please let me know..
BTW, I use the LB with a stopwatch and always count my seconds to prevent combustion.. it doesn't make any sence.. its like having a car and being able to reach 0-60 in 8 seconds, but a week later it is 8.5 seconds, then again a week later it is 10 seconds..
