This is the 'pro trick' I've seen around here (OF came up with it I believe?):
Yeah, this one's my fault too. I use a wedge shaped piece myself that nearly blocks it in the center (leaves a narrow passage in the center) with two larger passages at the edges (where the groove is shallow anyway).
You can also clear that area with a quick, hard pull on it before you start heating for the next hit. My big issue is not in the shaking part but in herb getting there carrying it in your pocket, there the herb can make it all the way out.

Easier to blow through the intake end.
The MFLB was my first vaporizer.Interesting idea, I never tried it.......
Thanks for the suggestion.....IMO that's just the sort of thing this Forum is really useful for. Lots of useful information to consider.

It's really grown on me and 2 batteries easily last me a week using twice a day.
Good idea here, i guess i really never thought of that being caught up in the excitement I guess I may gotten a little to crazy. Still the pocket leakage though seems unavoidable. I also like the electrical tape idea. I may try and come up with my own stopper and share it with you guys, I have a few ideas in mind.I tip it so the air inlet is on the top of the trench then do my tap shake. As long as I don't get too crazy with it the herb doesn't go out the air inlet
I just bought my box about 5 days ago. The batteries that came stock seem to last a lot longer than what the manual says. Out of the box without any charging the first battery lasted me two days (about 8 trenches)what do mean by twice a day, pcpvapors? two pulls or two trenches? i've got the glyphs recently, but they seem not to last that long for me.

I assume the seal isn't perfect (leaks around the battery and ground ring), but you simply over power it?
Cool. I'll give it a try, although the tape trick does a pretty good job I think. Using a wedge shape (sharp end backwards) keeps stuff from hanging up on the way back into the bowl.....I forgot to mention that part.

UpgradeAnyone have an opinion on which one is better?
The Beta Edition Original Power Adapter or Power Adapter 2.0?
My Original Beta Edition one just broke ): and they are sending me a 2.0. I love Magic Flight, just want to know if this is an upgrade or downgrade.
Thanks!
i totally agree with that first statement, its much easier for a first timer to to enjoy the box with glyphs i find. the old stock ones are still good but for sure require a good technique in my opinionI believe the "glyph" batteries may allow for a sloppier technique to achieve decent results. I've got a brand new pair of old style I'll use for a couple days and do a true comparison (with my replacement box I simply used the glyphs only).
Hey all, I'm new to the forum and was just granted posting privileges!
I bought my magic flight box about 4 days ago and have enjoyed every second of it. The box performs flawlessly. I have had prior experience on the magic box on a friends unit, so I was able to get into effective vaping right away.
I really like the idea of the flip, tap, and shake method to keep even heating of the material. The method has a slight drawback though in my eyes. I found by box to be leaking a small amount of plant material through the air inlet channel. The fact that the box best operates with finely ground material makes this issue more prone to happen. This usually makes me opt to stirring the material gently with the back end of the brush, which is really no big deal while sitting on my couch enjoying a trench at home. Not as optimal when I'm on the go though. Even when storing a trench for later use in my pocket I'll find a little bit of material trapped in the air channel. To be honest the amount really is miniscule, but still somewhat of a nuisance.
Does anyone else experience this? Do any of you seasoned users of the box have a trick to preventing this? One suggestion that i would pose to the guys at Magic Box is to cut the wood in a perforated pattern right at the edge of the air channel right before the trench hole. It would at least stop some of the leaking material.
Again i cannot express my love for this device more, the Box is awesome. Any feedback is appreciated.
How much are you loading in the trench? I find with the mflb that less is more
Standard load for me is 1/8 gram. I actually weigh out loads of fine ground bud ('.12 anything', .120 to .129, passes) into little vials. It goes fast, really. I have a small plastic funnel I stick in the vial and zero out on the scale. I have a scoop that usually comes up a little short, it's easy to 'trickle' the last bit in with the next scoop (only partially filled) brings it into range. The poke the bud down with a small stick, cap the vial, stick the funnel in the next vial and back to the scale. Easy to do several a minute. Works great, the vials are the same size as a battery, fit in the same case:

Even if I used your load size though, you could get it all in a shortie, so I'm curious why you use the larger vials.
