"CAN I RECHARGE BOVEDA?

It’s no secret that Boveda will absorb moisture if exposed to a humidity higher than what’s printed on the pack, but we don’t recommend recharging exhausted packs. First, it requires putting time, hassle and mess into something specifically designed to be completely hassle-free. Secondly, depleted packs may contain sharp crystallized salt residue that can puncture the inner membrane and cause leaks once rehydrated. Lastly, your Boveda will not be as accurate in reaching its intended RH if recharged.

The bottom line: Boveda is not designed to be re-used. Attempting to rehydrate the packs increases risk of wearing out the paper and heat-seals, thus causing potential membrane leaks. Putting these back in your humidor around your cigars is not using the product as intended, and Boveda strongly discourages this behavior."

Because they would lose a sale, but for the small amount of money compared to a lost jar of medicine to mold, new Bovedas every couple years or so sounds cheap.

I find carrots to work just as good

First, it requires putting time, hassle and mess into something specifically designed to be completely hassle-free.

Ok.. I guess this is one point of view. When it's done you throw it away. I believe in extending the life of everything as far as possible, and if throwing a 8g paper pack in a glass of water requires time, hassle & mess.. well I just have a different perception of what a real hassle is.

Secondly, depleted packs may contain sharp crystallized salt residue that can puncture the inner membrane and cause leaks once rehydrated.

I've been doing this for a few years and this never happened. It wouldn't even bother me if it did, I was going to throw the pack away anyway?

Lastly, your Boveda will not be as accurate in reaching its intended RH if recharged.

I've tested this multiple times with a hygrometer and always got the same results as before recharged. So the myth that you can't get the same results or accuracy as before is busted.



I think the situation is clear.. they're a great business and to thrive they have to maximize their sales. The page they published fits perfectly in this consumerist society. Why would you throw away something that still has the potential to perform as it's always been doing?

Long life to Boveda!

We've all been waiting for some new vape from S&B. While I applaud progress, this is not the one I had my hopes set on...

I'm sure it will be a big hit, but as a long term Volcano owner I prefer direct draw or WPA on the Mighty over a bag or whip.

I have to agree that I also prefer the mighty over a volcano bag. I like to think of the mighty as a mini volcano heater that can fit in your pocket and is even better, ie direct draw!

I’ve been vaping for ten years this month, but I had never used a Volcano until last September when I tried one at Barney’s in Amsterdam. I thought it was pretty good, but a lot of work for secondary vapor. Give me a Mighty any day....although that’s my preference over just about every other vape. The Mighty is always my first choice.

I'm sure it has been mentioned but I don't know how to search the thread but I was wondering what portable power supplies you guys use. The battery life on this thing is amazing but on a day like today where I've forgotten to charge it the night before a portable power supply would be clutch. Also on those heavy days where I'm sharing with friends.

Not at home atm, but i use a similar batterypack like this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32849499433.html

Must be 12V whatever you go for, the one i linked has same mighty connector btw

 

[LesPlenty]

I have heaps of 18650 batteries so I made a power pack for my Mighty with these;
https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Series-...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

and the following plug(same as WS);
https://www.ebay.com/itm/5pair-12V-...m=222802058870&_trksid=p2045573.c100506.m3226

I install 3 Boundless Tech 2500Mah batteries and that will charge a dead flat Mighty once.
For camping trips where I beed more charges and size is not critical, I use;

https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/12V-600...e=STRK:MEBIDX:IT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
These are available in different names and colors, make sure it is identical as there are a lot of crappy versions available, the one I have pictured will run my compressor fridge for 10 hours, the cheap shit ones barely work at all!

 

[Lenny Pepperbottom]

Thanks for the ideas guys. I really like yours Lesplenty. I'm assuming most of us myself included have plenty of 18650s laying around so that's a great idea.

Puffitup has a 20% off sale on the Mighty and Crafty. Today only. Discount code is 4TH.

Glad I waited.

Hello! After hesitating a “few” years”, I finally purchased a Might.! Looking for glass mouthpiece for my Mighty. NOT looking for pieces for bong set up. Can you steer me in the right direction? Thank you!

 

[LesPlenty]

Spend your money on spare Cooling Units if you are not going full glass WPA with J-hook.

How is the taste with the Obama mouthpiece?

OOPS meant the original mouthpiece!

 

[LesPlenty]

The Mighty tastes pretty good as it comes from the factory, no real taste difference if you just use the Easyflow glass mouthpiece on the CU, it just feels smoother to the touch on the lips, no cooling help as it is so short.
Today I have been trialing a mini J-hook filled with glass balls on the glass WPA, it cools better than the standard CU, tastes better and I can leave it in Iso for as long as I want to clean it...more testing before I actually recommend it, but so far so good.

Can we petition S&B to make a new portable already?

I couldn't even imagine how they could improve the Mighty! I guess less plastic would be a nice touch, and maybe going full convection to improve the flavor? Then it would be harder to make those clouds every newbie can do on his first try with a Mighty!

This replaces the mouthpiece 'straw' on the cooling unit.
I've not used one; some folks like them.

[invertedisdead]

I like the glass mouthpiece but it kept coming off and doesn't seem to seal as tight as the factory one so I went back to it.

Anytime you can get 20% off, it’s a good deal. A couple of sites, including puffitup, have extended their sales through today at least.

 

[triskelion]

Mighty is pure vaporization, zero pollution, for me

 

[LesPlenty]

Then it would be harder to make those clouds every newbie can do on his first try with a Mighty!

User adjustability of convection/conduction ratio, easy user replaceable batteries, lower CU maintenance, a rubberized Iso proof metal body(that will fit a normal pocket) would be a good start to improving the old Dinosaur.
