if any beginer wants a good experience with the mighty, anything above 375 will get a fully extracted bowl, especially ending at the higher temperatures.

thank you guys for your help it is much appreciated i was told that this is the best vape community... and it seriously is guys im going to go for a bubbler but i wanted something small but good quality in terms of build quality, safety and performance. i saw the budgie bubbler but there was bad reviews about it.
The issue with this is you really need something that's really high temp. (this isn't just any plastic) There is definitely a market for these though ... if my Mighty/Crafty case was broken, I'd be willing to pay up to $100 for a new housing ... @Ratchett ... any possibility of this?
While it's possible to 3D print a replacement housing, the problem is indeed the proper material for the job.
While PEEK is 3D printable with an FDM machine, it wouldn't be capable of producing the detail necessary for proper alignment of the components. And while I do have some other engineering grade high temp polymers which would look beautiful and function perfect, the material would be extremely brittle.
I'm still researching 3D print-ability of various high-temp materials, but we're not quite there yet for direct replication of this functional product
I think the replacement device is more like >$100 (in USD) if you have a warranty, and out of warranty best you can hope for is 50% off but the new device doesn't get a new warranty!
It's really too bad they won't stand by their devices and repair them ... things break, batteries are a consumable, and plastic ages and gets brittle as well ...

I can confirm that the balloons from the volcano feel a lot cooler than the mighty. I'm running a volcano at 380 and it's very smooth.
I would also suggest trying as little material as possible. The S+B products seem to be very efficient but also unique. Maybe it's me or my technique or maybe it cause I only have 2 other conduction vapes to compare this with. It's hard to describe and get my head around fully at the moment. I've only had a mighty for about 5 months. Plenty for a couple and volcano digit for a month. Switching between them is fun and is also teaching me their little nuances. I can microdose now with the Mighty and Volcano - just had the lightest whispy balloon from 0.04g on a volcano- i'm getting good results using a basket screen from an Extreme Q with a gauze on as a lid in the reducer chamber. On the Mighty I am using CBD hemp at the moment, in capsules topped with half a liquid pad or a screen and then with the lid on the cap.
My thoughts are if you fully load the chamber there's more substance there to vaporise and the clouds are going to be thicker where as if you use as little as possible there's more air to vapour ratio? So @AddictedToCombustion would you mind doing an experiment like that for me? I know you said you're going to get a bubbler. I've been using mine for the last few morning sessions, and I'm really enjoying it but I'd be very interested to hear your experience.
The Plenty seems like I need to fill it up a bit more but then that's what I like about it. I know it's going to hit and keep hitting if I fill it so only use it when I'm in the/a mood

Mighty European Travel Report:
on my recent trip to Amsterdam and Europe I brought two travel vapes. Mighty and VapCap M.
I use them very little at home as I 99% vape with my miniVAP and Herbalizer.
My guess was the Mighty would get most use but I moved over to mostly VapCap. IMO, the Mighty has
many many positive attributes but the weak points for me were the "chamber", the none-standup securely design,
the 410 F limit, the need to finish your dose or it keeps cooking.
Direct chamber loading was never an option for me as that stains the chamber so bad. I use the capsules but have
grown to dislike them and after this trip, maybe beyond dislike. They get fricken hot and stay hot for a loooong time.
They even burn when heating up/ before you even take a draw---wanted to inspect my load and inspected burn ointment instead. Capsule holes are too big as they let a lot of ABV get sucked out. Capsules seem to resist opening yet other times, they come open when you don't want that.
Vaping story:
One night at 1 AM, sitting on the doorstoop of a 1635 church, overlooking the vacant town square, the Mighty gave some
very nice hits from the Amazing Haze bud/ G-13 and Super Lemon Haze bloc hash.Time to stir but learned my lesson on hot capsules so removed CU and sucked some ghost draws to help cool. Then blew over top of rich capsule with unit leaned about 10 degrees and........ the fricken low pressure area sucked the capsule right out of the chamber and.... it's rolling down the top 3 steps and capsule still intact.... it's rolling across the top landing and capsule still intact.... it's rolling down the entire top stairs and still intact.... it's onto the next landing and still intact....it's now turned to start the next set of stairs and it's in pieces and there goes the prized contents
Luckily, I brought my miniVAP Flexicone setup to use without the cooling unit, for direct draws and better filtering of ABV
and immediate cooling and more convection heating. It Flexicone has a fine screen and tiny hemp filter to contain all ABV micro dust
With water, this is an awesome setup, like for a hard hitting party vape. Without water, this gets harsh after a few hits
so it has drawbacks for travel use too.
VapCap came into play and it was very impressive with the miniPortside induction heater, 6 seconds to heat and puff.
It is very smooth and cool for its size. It worked much better than expected.

Faolan
Mighty, Air1.5/Max/Go, Tinymight, Dynavap, Fury2
1-3 usually. Using about .1
only if u leave them in the chamber, they actually cool pretty quick if u hold the mighty upside down before removing the CU and then let the cap cool a few sec sitting on the CU screen...

I've been using a silicone container (traditionally for dabs) to toss the hot capsules into and just turn up the temp to fully extract as i don't find it necessary to stir the load.Mighty European Travel Report:

Does anybody of you fellow FC members invented some kind of protection sleeve/bumper/case which would protect the mighty from accidental bumps? ?mainly the cu mount part, thats where the device seems to fail... or do you recommend not keeping the CU on it at all?
I would appreciate your tips

My 3 month old Mighty no longer has a functioning LCD display, it has dimmed and i can barely see the temperature readings. This is my second mighty in 4 months and im completely disappointed.
its hard to justify the $350 price tag...
Glad i bought a Volcano to keep me busy, this mighty just seems to fail every few months, i keep it in a camera bag and never dropped it

My LCD screen goes out, but if give it a little tap near the bottom, it turns on and stays on throughout my session. Weird and not ideal, I know... but it works

I've been procrastinating sending my mighty in for months. The battery is good for just 3-4 loads now, maybe 5 if two are back to back. Its also missing some fins. But if I wait until November it will be four years old. A goal I guess. And it still does work well. Are there any other working four year old mightys?
