Pretty sure they are reusable for as many times as you want so long as you clean them.

Major upgrade. The vapor is cooler, thicker, and easier to draw than the Solo....which can cause you to collapse a lung , the draw is so restricted.
The Solo is a Hyundai compared to the Mighty’s Lamborghini. You’ll never look back. I haven’t touched my solo in over three years. Probably doesn’t even work anymore.
Well @dave123 I never used the Solo, but have had a Solo 2 for a year now. It's draw is fine and the vapor is on par with the Crafty (and I assume the Mighty). I use the Crafty for portability and the Solo 2 for home.
Is your crafty better than the solo?
I don't want to get the mighty and end up thinking its the same as the solo.
I want bigger hits which im not getting from the solo

Trust the forum on this. You won't be disappointed. Plus you can use it plugged in; it's like a desktop as well...

@dave123 ,

The Mighty is a great vape.
Time's a wastin' on the 4/20 discount!
You might also try emailing or calling Randy at Puffitup (while S&B discount is still on). Tell him you're an FC member. He will probably match the discount and he also throws in a stand and a grinder.
But make sure he has latest model, with "20% more battery".

Dealer's choice on the water tool (I have one similar to budgie and it gets the job done, but also have a desktop that's a little bigger than that honey and stands up well on it's own (It is home made, so I have no link for you.).
But be advised that the type of adapter they sell (plastic and glass, screws onto Mighty) has been reported to be less than optimal. If you over-tighten it can crack the Mighty's housing, and, second, it's screen is too far above the chamber. One other member recently had one that seemed to be leaking, or somehow just not producing satisfying vapor. delta3dstudios (member @Ratchett) has a nice one (the V3 model) though now I see you are not in US, shipping might make it a little expensive, but it is one of the best on the market. He does have a 4/20 code on his front page, here is the adapter;

If you don't mind shopping in China, go to DhGate, Sunshine Store and look at D-020-D 9" bubbler.
Lots of folks seem to like this one. But it is a big world of available glass out there, from sublime to ridiculous!

You convinced me to give it another go and not be such a big wuss and after running the Mighty empty on 150 degrees Celsius and drawing through the cooling unit for a couple of minutes I managed to crack it open with a little persuasion.
And here it is broken down into its components:
As you can see I managed to break a little bit off the clip of the element housing but it still functions fine and you could probably break off both and the housing would be perfectly snug around the element due to the tight tolerances.
The great thing is that it enabled me to soak the metal air way and chamber in ISO and then give it a scrub:
And voila, a refurbished mighty awaiting some new batteries!:
If I put a new screen in there she’d be sparkling! Also, just FYI I did break a little piece off the plastic body fins around the chamber when cleaning with a q tip but I don’t care.
The circular scratch on the chamber housing is from my water piece adapter, it fits so snugly that over time after taking it on and off it’s worn into the plastic; again it’s purely cosmetic and I couldn’t care less.
Here she is back in her home:
If you have warranty and you want to avoid damaging your mighty cosmetically then send it in for a RMA but if, like me, you’re out of warranty don’t be afraid to have a go at taking it apart yourself if you need to change the batteries or want to clean the chamber like I have.
Hope you all had a happy 4:20!

Can anyone who’s done business with @JCat vouch for him for me please?
I just want to have peace of mind before I do a friends and family PayPal transfer with him for two of his battery packs.
P.S. Sorry for double posting moderators, I didn’t want this getting lost in the very different and lengthy previous post I made.

Yes, go for it as he is 100% legit. He has many happy customers here and those replacement batteries (VS S&B cost) are pure genius

glad to see you finally did it. everyone should do this ,ones they opened their units.
about the broken fins.... they will brake by themselves at some point in time due to the heat.
(my old one did this) even the plastic around the oven which holds the cooling unit in place will chip/break off in time. I know it sound scary, but it seems that this is the only downside (at least for me) the mighty/crafty has which is unrepairable by myself....
I'm thinking of this from the first day I got my new one and i am not sure if anyone is selling them as a spare part. S&B or aftermarket 3D printed ,I really don't care as long as I can get spare parts in a reasonable price.......

I picked up a Mighty during the 420 sales from PUI. Really enjoying the vapor dry and through water.
The glass mouthpiece feels great but seems a littleloose, and the plastic mouthpiece is well built but tempting to bite. I've been using glass at home and plastic on-the-go.
So it's been 3 days, and 5 charging cycles (probably one more today). I replaced the screens on my cooling unit with the finer ones from the wear and tear kit to cut down on debris in the CU.
The cooling unit does a good job, conditioning the vapor, and the really low draw resistance feels like you can pull for ever.
I'm 50/50 on the capsules. They are super convenient and will be used when I'm away from the house but they don't give the same huge rips and a full oven.
I seem to bigger, denser clouds from my second and third pulls - the first is light.
I'll get a couple more days under my belt before a full review.
I don't think it will dethrone the Solo II as my favourite portable but it's going to be a really close second.
I think they are different devices and not really comparable, but number 1 in their own respective categories.
Congrats to all the new Mighty owners. And if it's your first vape, welcome to the club!!

When that day arrives the Mighty will be very close to perfection! Until that day, I will concentrate on preserving the batteries for a long life of my mighty

Well this morning i just had a bowl and the mighty which has only been in use daily for a week started its temperature climb and got to 60c then vibrated and went to 9999 or 0000 on the screen then kept going to 210c it did this twice going to blank numbers and then came back and went to 210c. It also was plugged in and showed a bar drop surely not that never happened its only been an indoor vape plugged in for 1 week.
But its been a spare for so long for just this kind of occasion (my Herborizer died last week) its 1 month or so out of warranty. Im kind of worried now about the second bowl. But for sure even if i said to these people oh look 1 week and a malfunction you would meet a brick wall and a 248 euro offer of a new one.

Yes it is. The haptic feedback before the auto off, and the 20% more battery sticker on the box.
Plus all the PUI extras, like the capsule magazine, stand, WPAs (I got both 14mm and 18mm), and glass mouthpiece.
I also snagged all the essentials, O ring pack, wear and tear set, extra capsule magazine (didnt realize I was all ready getting one, but two is even better), extra glass mouthpiece and a DeBowler.
All my other vapes I empty the ABV in to a small cotton bag, but the mighty is a bit awkward to empty that way - hope the DeBowler fills that gap.
In an effort to extend the battery life, I overcharged for a few hours first charge (to help settle/even out the charge between the two cells).
I also only charge to 80/90% (as represented by the digital bars on the display) and discharge to 20-30% (as represented by the same bars).
After a charge cycle, I will the Mighty use immediately, so it's been stored around 75-85% battery levels.
And never use the pass through tech. Kills batteries, period.

I certainly understand the desire to keep batteries in tip top shape, especially the non-swap-able kind), and I can also appreciate a person who has the knowledge to enact the proper procedures to do that.
I, on the other hand, tend to just use the device as it suits me, with the exception that if I run it on high temp. I will let it cool a bit between bowls. Only once have I had an error message and shutdown due to heat, but proper behavior resumed after cooling down.
I charge it randomly, though I don't like to run it all the way down very often (just like my stash!). I guess my tendency is to just put it back on the charge cable when not in use.
I used it as a plug-in (bypass) I suppose about 30% to 40% of the time. Often going through 5-10 bowls/day, though less after getting a Grasshopper.
After 2 years, it was still getting 8 capsules from a single charge, heating nearly as fast as when new.
Unfortunately, I had to put it away for what's now been many, many months (I don't have access to it currently) and I'm increasingly concerned for the status of the batteries. Nevertheless, it's been a spectacular run. I'm psyched that there are now options for user-serviceable batteries should I need them in the future!
