These are great tips, and somewhat similar to how I've learned to use the Mighty over the past nine months. I usually start at 185, take two hits, then shut it off. I get another one or two sizable hits after shutoff. As I step up in temp I continue to shut it off after each two or three hits. This does everything you mention (limits conduction cooking, carbs out the lingering vapor before it condenses), but also does something else: for me it makes the Mighty less of a session vape and more of an on-demand device; by judicious shutting off after each couple of hits I can make a bowl last hours or much of the day.
Ironically, I loathed the one-minute shutoff on my early 2015 Mighty. Drove me nuts. Now that I really know how to use it I sometimes think they knew exactly what they were doing with the original configuration.
I have a small RYOT Pack Ratz case for my Crafty and I love it. It's a smell proof case and is a very snug fit for the Crafty. I don't know what size works for the Mighty, but I do recommend the case.
. Still an update or V2 would make me a lot more likely to pull the trigger.
The Mighty (and Crafty) are blended convection and conduction, they they are more of session vapes. Most of the others you list are pure convection (Apollo excepted). So it partly depends on your use style.I use a Haze V3.0 and get VERY medicated off of that convection beast. So much more than my Pax. But I want more flavor throughout the bowl! I would have already purchased this thing if I didn't feel like I was buying a "2 year old vape" in 2016, the year of the new convection vape! What makes you new purchasers pull the trigger on this when the Firefly2, Haze Square, Zion, Apollo, et. Vapes are coming out so shortly? I know the vapor is awesome and that's why I'm still on the fence. But eventually I just think S&B will release the Mighty 2 with replaceable 18650 batteries and make my decision easy!!
I guess what would be the point in doing that when they can just collect all of those battery replacement fees $$$$$
So you guys still think this is the best vape to buy in 2016 with all of the new convection competition around the corner?

So...how do you rate/compare the Mighty to the ff2?Apples and oranges. I use both the FF and the Mighty. They do different things, in different ways, for different situations and circumstances.
One thing I will tell you: no matter what you read or hear about the Mighty, you cannot fully grasp its appeal until you use it. It may not be obvious exactly how it does what it does, but it is among the most amazing vapor devices I have ever used. It has so many unique qualities among portables (totally open draw, 100% extraction, great flavor with no burnt taste, will not combust under any conditions, no learning curve, cool vapor, no stirring) that I lose count of its charms.
There is room in every vape enthusiast's aresenal for on-demand convection like FF and the near-magical hybrid of the Mighty. Until you try it, you just cannot imagine what a freaking badass device it really is. I will not live without mine!

I've been meaning to ask this too, Mitch, but wasn't sure which thread to ask it on...so thanks Mr Me2!
Specifically, with regards to smoothness.
And, frustratingly, my wife would have said the same thing two weeks ago, so I'm looking forward to thoughts on the FF2.

Specifically, with regards to smoothness. My wife has started coughing like crazy on the Mighty, even at 160c through water, after being thrilled with it for most of a year. We're both looking hard at whether a new vape be in order, and your praise of the FF2 has made me wonder if this is one to explore. Ease of use is also huge for her, which also appears appealing about the FF2.
(We're also rethinking strains again, and I'm about to try going even lower temp, but that's another thread.)
For me though, I want to heartily second this for anyone still wondering if the Mighty is what they're looking for: it is.
