Calm down, it comes with a very nice manual you can read while Mighty charges to full. That does not take long, they usually come more than 1/2 charged. But you should still charge to full before use. Then run it empty on high temp for a couple of minutes' burnoff, just to be sure (though these come really clean from the factory), that's it.
This is a very easy vape to use.

Boost mode: if you double click the power button it’ll kick the temp up by about 20F. I have a mighty and like it, but it’s not really an on demand unit. I really recommend the dosing caps; if you want to vape half the load and leave it for later you can turn off the mighty and just dump the capsule out. In practice I find I take less enormous hits and space them out. When I empty the cap the abv is even brown.

You’re gonna love it. I dig the MV but the reliability and consistency of the Mighty blows it away.
I personally like to use the capsules and pack them very tightly.

This....this.....this is what I need to hear......I'll let.everyone how it goes , thanks to all again for all.the help!
My Mighty will be more reliable than my MV1 because I have not used my Mighty since getting an MV1.

yeah I’m saving what’s left of good batteries but My usage is too hard for unit so at least the Mighty will be there in Times of need....
Wow ! First hit was surprising a lot more flavor than I expected.....but I do have a question....how do I turn booster temp off once you dbl click? And I assume if yo ur temp is 365 your booster temp can be up to 380 according to manual?

Yeah I think it bumps it up 15-20 degrees. I never remember to use it...I do most of my vaping at 200-210C so I'm not sure I need a boost. I think you only disengage it by turning the power off and back on.
The Mighty has much better flavor than its reputation would lead you to believe. It's no Firefly, but it's pretty damned smooth, and unlike pure convection you never get that charring flavor that can be almost impossible to avoid in a long-ish session. The Mighty is a badass....there's some serious magic in its convection/conduction hybrid that I personally find to be superior to either method alone.

So first thoughts really solid piece of equipment .... Now the capsules on the other hand.... I already had to reshape one due to man handling of it lol.....again surprised flavor so good and for the small amt of bud used in the capsules to get desired effects,I’m saving over the ghost but it almost like two good but different highs which just adds more fun to my vaping ....I have to agree it’s super easy out of the box and consistent hits one after another is very nice....now I gotta go I have to figure easy way to open and empty this pile of capsules I’ve created.....

The capsules are tight when new and tend to break-in so they're not quite so difficult after a few uses...

I've had good results using a fingernail to try to pull up the edge of the cap. That being said, they're not easy to open. Supposedly it's easier when they're still warm. S&B say they're single-use, but I can't see that, especially throwing away all that ABV.

I bought my Mighty a few months ago during the PIU Black Friday sale. I tried temp stepping and boosting but now I just run at max temp all the time.
Dosing caps only for me, too. A few of mine were difficult to open when brand new but now many have the opposite problem and I have to bend the lids a little bit to get them to stay attached.
TIP - Be very careful to put the dosing caps into your Mighty with the lid facing up! They get VERY stuck if accidentally inserted upside down!
Check out the Delta3DStudios dosing cap loading tray. Great accessory, I love mine. Here's my post from a few pages back.

I recently bought a couple accessories from @Ratchett at Delta3DStudios -- WPA and the dosing cap loading tray.
I like the glass wpa I received with my order from PIU, glass on glass is the best, but the plastic ring holding it to the Mighty was very tight, even after filing it down a bit. I also noticed that it'd turn further into the Mighty locking tabs as it warmed up. The D3D wpa fits perfect, no stress on the Mighty tabs - much better!- and it's a perfect seal with my 18mm Rattlecan. I feel safer using this long-term since it's not putting so much stress on my Mighty tabs.
The D3D dosing cap loading tray works great! I've also got the S&B 40 cap loading tray. The S&B unit works well and it's nice having a week's worth of caps preloaded and ready to go plus it comes with lots of accessories. (love the plunger to install the lids on the caps!) The D3D unit has a couple nice advantages, though. Mainly, it works MUCH better! The nubs on the top piece that push the herb down into the caps on the S&B unit are way too short to be useful, the D3D nubs are much longer and work much, much better. No more jamming a wooden spoon handle into the caps to compress the herb!
A bit of ground herb always spills about when packing the caps and it's easy to pick up the entire D3D unit to clean up as you go. The bottom tray of the S&B unit is recessed and hidden underneath the top tray, making it very difficult to pick the entire unit.
Loading 8 caps at a time also allows me to have a variety to choose from on a daily basis rather than 40 of all the same. I loaded 4 strains yesterday and these little plastic Rubbermaid containers from the grocery store are perfect for keeping everything organized, sharpie and painter's tape for labels.

I also like Delta3dstudios debowler ash tray. It makes emptying the dosing caps alot cleaner, and when the jar is full you have a measured amount of AVB ready for making butter or what ever.
You can also set your boost temp by simply adjusting the temp while its activated, that temp will now be the preset boost temp so if you want to go from 365f to 420f you can. if i remember correctly the boost function is good for 30 seconds. no?

I agree. PBW for glass used with flower vapes. ISO for concentrate reclaim in my oil rigs. ISO and ultrasonic cleaner for Mighty CU.
And I'm an old man too! hahaha
hahaha...me too. Songbird and Penny....but what day of the week is this today? LOL
Personally, I'm not a big fan of the dosing capsules and prefer to top my flower loads with a liquid pad. Keeps the gunk out of the CU and CU screen while adding additional conduction for better extraction.
I do occasionally use the capsules for flower/trates sandwiches....a load of which kind of wears me out by the end of it! haha
And I definitely brush out the chamber and anything else I can get at after each and every load. With out fail and while still warm. For every vape I own.

it's that way every time, with every strain, any grind - and you never have to stir. there's a reason mightys have stayed in the top 2 or 3 vapes on people's 'best' lists (vapecritic, 420 vapezone).

Yeah you can experiment all you want (sounds like fun actually) but the Mighty is almost supernaturally consistent. ABV is always even and quite dark especially if you pack the capsules densely. It really will ruin you for other vapes....I find myself struggling with pure convection vapes that are uneven and inconsistent and I invariably end up reaching for one of my Mightys thinking “I am way too old for this shit....”

I’ve been using my Mighty lately and there’s a lot to love about it. The only real drawback for me is the lack of an on demand mode. If I don’t want to vape an entire capsule at a sitting I’ll reach for something else. If it was possible to use it on demand I’d probably never use anything else.

You know, I often start a full capsule late at night, like 1am, and fail to finish it, and start it up again the next day around dinner time. And it's fine....once it gets warmed up it pumps out lots of great vapor, no real degradation in flavor or quality. I find it pretty easy to work around the lack of true on-demand functionality, and I think using capsules (as opposed to leaving a half vaped chunk of weed in the bowl itself) seems to facilitate this.

This is very true, i used mine this way.
