The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

[snoopyfan]

Ok I have finally joined this congregation, thanks to PIU on Black Friday. Just couldn’t resist the chance to see what all the hype is about.

At first we were like, “da-yum!!!’” Even at low temps, the hits are just so...SUBSTANTIAL. Almost too much, especially for Mr. OyVape’s lungs. It felt like real overkill. For our lungs and wallet.

But it tasted so frickin great! So, smaller hits using our collection of j-hooks and bubblers... now I love that I can get a couple big, deep hits that somehow taste better and satisfy more than any other vape I have tried. Definitely more than the Nano. Yes, the Mighty has some kinda serious mojo.

I do have a question about the WPA adapter it came with. Several times it has come off the vape while I am hitting it, causing mega anxiety. I screw it down tight but it still happens when using a j-hook. I usually lift it to clear each hit. I’ve tried it both with the vape above the glass and the other way around. Is there some way to lock it down besides the plastic rim that screws down over it?

get the delta 3d wpa

I've got a cold and I'm wondering if I should stop vaping altogether or just reduce the temperature?

I normally hit at 195 Celsius, wondering what you'd suggest as an alternative temperature?

I would stop all together. You'll recover much quicker. But if you want to mess around I would say only use temps 340-370 that's the sweet spot when I'm sick and don't want to.l be worse

i do a mixture of sage, chamomile and mint at 165C as 'cold medicine' (nice to have more than one cooling unit ) - the max temp of mint is 170C tastewise, sage and chamomile are okay up to 190C...

Hey guys sorry for being so inactive recently.
I just wanted to let you know that I sent in my Mighty yesterday to S&B.
I got the unit replaced in february by the retail seller himself but bought it initially in december 16 (cause of a small crack next to the heating chamber; device was still pretty new so I cared a little more)

My unit looked pretty fucked up, the case didnt hold together anymore after I had dropped it once on hard ground.
I had several cracks near the heating chamber, too. While charging at 210°C at some time I received the ERROR Message on the screen. The batteries were not so good neither.
All in all the unit did still heat up but was actually broken by my fault :-D.

That being said, I did tell S&B about the drop though but cleaned my Mighty as thoroughly as possible. I dont know if that had any positive impact on my RMA or because of coming Christmas but today I got the answer that I will receive either a new unit or a repaired one .

Actually, following German laws, my warranty already had expired cause of the initial date of purchase so I am very very happy with their customur support :-)!


edit: I forgot to mention that my Mighty even fell into the toilet once for a very short time and still worked afterwards LOL. Of course I cleaned everything with ISO as I didnt want to vape my shitwater .

I'm very excited to see how the Boundless Tera performs versus the Mighty. I think, I will buy the tera or the new firewood 5, to have a more discreet companion to the Mighty.

 

[Jack_72]

Are there any new portable devices out that perform similar to the Mighty?

I am not so up to date because I enjoy the Mighty so much I did not even think about checking out some new devices lol. But competition is always good, especially for the customers, so I am always excited to hear about something comparable. I know that there are many units which perform good on individual preferences but to be honest I have never seen another small portable unit like the Mighty that produces so much steam. Even my buddy, a highly satisfied Volcano user, thinks about replacing his Volcano with a Mighty, in case his unit fully brakes at some time which is not going to happen .
I would appreciate to finally try out something new but my budget is limited therefore I am sticking with my (at no charge) repared / new mighty and Arizer EQ4 :/.


Edit: Wth the Boundlass Tera looks amazing!

 

[vapenerd]

Are there any new portable devices out that perform similar to the Mighty?

You could try a butane vape: Sticky Brick Junior, Hydrobrick, Vapcap or Vapman. All of them are on demand though. Some electronic session vaporizers: Tubo Evic, Fury 2 or maybe the X-Max Fog?

Are there any new portable devices out that perform similar to the Mighty?

vape critic (bud) posted a couple reviews of the ghost mv-1 a while back, said it was even better than the mighty (his top-rated portable). unfortunately, when it was finally released, people had extremely inconsistent experiences, with some MV-1s working fine and others... not so much. they're working on a fix, but I'd wait to hear how that goes before buying one. if I were you, I'd stick with the mighty for now.

 

[vapenerd]

Also, what about the Crafty?

 

[SirCrackKillaH]

Besides the mighty, that's tough. The solo I like but it is a little fragile. The davinci IQ is another one that I found to be easy to use and the smart paths make it set and forget which I haven't seen with any other vape. However, proper packing is required and when it isn't packed right, it's like trying to suck a golf ball through a straw. The MV1 I like too and found the draw to be even better than the Mighty. The MV1 for me at least is on point, the dynamic changes depending on stem placement, battery life is on par with the mighty.

It's hard to replace the Mighty yo. The Mighty is a beast. I saw the boundless Tera mentioned here, looked it up and that too man, that looks cool.

 

[darbarikanada]

Also, what about the Crafty?

craftys have a much higher failure rate, probably due to there being a single battery instead of 2. I haven't seen numbers - and S&B aren't likely to share their figures - but anecdotally, there seem to be a lot more user reports of crafty failures.

Yeah, the two batteries mean it'll last twice as long. Here's the thing, I went through one Crafty every six months or about 48-65 hours on each. At which point the blinky death strobe man would occur. I've seen pictures of units now in the 100s but without the ability to replace batteries every six month to a year, it will forever require servicing. Mighty lasted a year for me each. I've gone through three and three so far.

The Mighty and Crafty are the mighty and Crafty though... they are extremely easy to use beasts when operational that put all other vapes to shame. If storz comes out with an on demand vape that is capable of sessions that is smaller with user replaceable batteries whether proprietary or not, they will sweep the whole f'in market man. I don't think they have that alien tech though. Gimme a Storz and Bickel MV1 man. How bout that? With a little digital display and two buttons in the front for heat adjustment. A hands free non button pushing party mode with smart paths.
Temperature increment adjustments viewable on a micro display . Ability to use dosing capsules. Yeahhhh... I have like 80 dosing capsules kicking around...

Gimme a flavor chamber too yo. I want Like a supervape modular rocketship. Hells yeah! I want like a Mighty PocketGodRocket! Yeahhh!!


Yoooo, I never actually talked about my love for this vape man. I mean a big fuck you to storz for making such a loveable device that I've had to part with yearly, but besides that, I love these two gadgets and there's mad love for that plenty too. I understand why there was no need to change the design after all this time.

Quite honestly, I'll probably always have a Mighty. It's rock solid when it operates. It's been collecting dust with the MV1 pretty much in use now daily with the spare crucibles, but it'll always be around. Next vape they come out with too, I'm sure it'll be extremely well thought out too man. Future holds good things

 

[Jack_72]

Yeah I love their devices, too. Not sure if I could ever give up my mighty, I am definitely going to care a lot more about the new one and will only vape with capsules to keep it nice and clean .
What concerns me a little bit is my assumption that they are not even developing on a better portable unit but rather relax on their success with the mighty. Dunno if that's true but it feels so. Never ever no reveals of new official accessories (e.g. glass mouthpiece, stand), no info on further devices... What are they doing lol.


E: Okay today I received an official bill for my RMA which says that my device could not have been repaired and I will get a new one. Does that mean they sent a new, sealed package with all new accessories etc ?!
Then I'd have two chargers, which would be really sweet.

I'm in my 3rd week with my Mighty and sofar the experience has been great! This vape makes me almost as high as my Extreme Q+Ddave does. Its way better than my Arizer Air.

What I'm still trying to figure out is how I need to grind it. After a while I was convinced that a really fine grind would give me way more vapor and hit amounts, but last few days I've been having opposite results so I started using a more coarse grind.

Whatever type of grind I use, I always get high enough anway, but I just like it when it feels like the bowl is going on forever

I haven't been cleaning the cooling unit yet. I'm not sure if I should soak it in ISO alcohol since its plastic. I've read that it should be no problem but I've also read that I shouldn't. I've received a few ISO qtips with the vape for free, so I think I'm gonna use these first instead of soaking the whole cooling unit in ISO.

I can't live without my Mighty anymore, it truly is a beast. I love the accessories they give with the vape, especially the brush.

I've always head better results with a medium-to-coarse grind, and whatever the size of chamber (capsules or chamber reduced in size by a pad or topper screen), a full, slightly tamped load.

ISO alcohol for cleaning is no problem, with the only exception being the 'hologram' label might come unglued if soaked for, like, hours.
For cleaning, use 99% iso. Separate the two halves of the cooling unit by sliding locking tab to unlock, then pushing down on the center post (if they seem 'glued' together by resin, let them warm up on a warm Mighty and try again). Put them in a baggie with enough iso to cover them. Suspend the baggie in a glass or bowl of very hot tap water for 10 to 20 minutes, occasionally pulling the baggie out to give a little shake. Pull the pieces out (I use forceps to keep hands clean) and give them a thorough rinse with cool water then let them dry. Re-assemble, being careful that the little blue o-ring that surrounds the lock post is all the way down, so it doesn't get pinched when you slide the lock over the post.
Prior to the cleaning, some folks like to scrape out the available re-claim, for a variety of creative uses.

Well, right now during my Mighty RMA I'm kinda forced to use my old EQ4 and somehow I don't clearly remember how to properly use it as I don't get near that much vape like from the mighty...
But I know that it can be a beast too.

No worries I'm cleaning my mighty in 99% ISO for exactly a year now, sometimes I let the cooking unit soak for a couple of hours.

Re-assemble, being careful that the little blue o-ring that surrounds the lock post is all the way down, so it doesn't get pinched when you slide the lock over the post.

Oh man seriously that is in fact the problem?! Don't know how many small o rings I've destroyed with my cooling unit, I always thought this was normal and kind of a bad design decision...

Prior to the cleaning, some folks like to scrape out the available re-claim, for a variety of creative uses.

Hell yeah! The resin inside of the cooling unit lets the mighty produce steam for a super long time. Sometimes I can vape for about 45 minutes in just one session because of that.
I also like to evaporate my ISO and scrap off the oil/resin afterwards, which is very intense!

For me the Ddave mod made it so much better. Without the Ddave mod it was okay but nothing that would amaze me. You should get it if you haven't got it yet and still want to make use of the EQ.

I use the EQ on 220 degrees celsius with Ddave mod and my D020-D bubbler. It blasts me away everytime I use it.

I was looking for the same experience in a portable, thats why I bought the Mighty

Bro you get a new everything! They send you a whole new unit like you just bought that shit brand new man. The grinder, brush, screens, o rings, eveeerrytthiinnggg!! I have six of some stuff three of a kind with others. RMA with storz is mad chill yo

 

[Whissmu]

hos I update my experience to date;

A month ago I opened an RMA for my mighty say that his battery is short in use, I received my confirmation by email but I doubted to if I was worth sending my device with less capacity (3 long or 4 short sessions) month of ask if my RMA was still active, they answered that yes and they added a shipping sticker to be send to take UPS without any expense .

Only a few hours ago that my mighty is away from home and although I have not used it recently and not intended to use it in the next few days ... I already miss it ...

i will inform to about the development of my RMA, when have notice new !!

I was always sad sending my unit in. It's like saying good bye to a good friend. Sometimes I would prolong it with the Mighty by plugging it in. Crafty would just be unrevivable. I get sad thinking about it.

 

[Whissmu]

My mighty will come back !!
I do not know how I would return ... if better or the same as before... but my consolation is strong knowing that he will return to my home !!

 

[Jack_72]

I just received my brand new mighty .
I did not know yet that they improved the vibration feedback which is not so strong anymore but more smooth and silent, just like a smartphone.

I don't like the new design of their package though. The all blue one was very special and nice to look at, this white one seems just regular. But what really matters is on the inside .

Hi guys, so I have been lurking here for several days after buying my Mighty and looking for some tips to improve my vaping experience. Let me say right off the bat, thank you all for the tips and tricks in this thread, they have helped me mightily in enhancing my sessions.



I have been a herb smoker for the best part of the last 10 years and for most of that time I used a plethora of different bongs with the occasional joints as Im not a big fan of tobacco. Not so long ago I got tired of bongs and switched to joints but couldn’t enjoy them with tobacco and smoking pure ones felt wasteful. So about a month ago after hearing from a friend that Vape’s are now really cool and portable, I decided that I must get myself one.



The Pax 3, was the first Vape I got hyped on. I must admit I didn’t do enough research before falling in love with the Pax 3’s looks or having solid intelligence I pulled the trigger and got myself one. When it came I was over the moon, it was beautiful and space age looking, kinda like an apple product. My first session was very positive, albeit I was horrified how much material I had to pack into the chamber in order to get it full, but the effects resulting from the initial run were great. However, as the days went on and I used my pax a couple more times I became quite disillusioned with it, especially following a vape session with a group of friends. To me the Pax was just not powerful enough, the clouds too small, the chamber to big, the hits too weak and the battery depleted too fast. After a week I was frustrated, I didn’t enjoy the pax, I was unhappy with my purchase, it was just not the vape for me despite many great aspects like portability, discreetness and sexy looks. I was ready to give up on vaping.



The Mighty, the saviour, the hero I was promised and deserve. After hearing from a couple of friends how great the Mighty was, I decided to do some research on it. The price at first discouraged me, having just spent an arm and a leg on the Pax I was uncertain whether to risk it for an even more expensive Vape that I might not like. Nevertheless, I decided to take the plunge one more time and got myself the latest model of the Mighty. I got home, filled the bowl using the cool filling aid, fired it up and took a long draw. WOW my lungs nearly exploded, it felt like a huge hit from a large bong with amazing clouds. It was love at first exhale, it was exactly the feeling I was looking for, the high I longed for and needed, I was figuratively and literally on could 9. Several days later I found this forum and learned how to use the cool dosing capsules which I absolutely adore and think they are one of the best things about the Mighty and so much more. Thank you for this thread guys.



I have rambled on for too long but hopefully someone will read at least the last part of my post as I need your help guys. I am looking for a soft carrying case to fit my Mighty + Grinder + Magazines and preferably the charger too. Currently, a old Beat’s by Dr.Dre case is doing the trick but I am looking for something dedicated for the mighty and smell proof but have had no luck in finding something fitting. Does anyone use a RYOT case for their Mighty as they seem nice or could you recommend another case?
