The Mighty/Mighty+ by Storz & Bickel

[Maddmoe]

Finally getting a Mighty this week after trying other vapes. It is coming with some dosing capsules. Any other required accessories? Stand probably?

Yes a stand made mines more desirable, more reachable, more ....oh well you get the point....

I did get other accessories from S&B , some i use some i dont use, guess its a personal thing, enjoy it as i do mines .......

Any other required accessories?

Eventually, you will 'require' most all of them.
Or not.
For now, lots of goodies come right in the box, you can fool around with those while you plot your next acquisition.

(If you plan to use capsules exclusively, you can remove the screen from the cooling unit.)

Good to know! Yeah I plan on using the capsules. I’ve had a MFLB, CFX and a M. None of them really blew me away. Hoping the Mighty is my end game for herb vape.

Smoke n' Scan got a Mighty!

Smoke n scan/Damon is a fun Youtube streamer that follows live vehicle pursuits and other calls by using police scanners and helicopter live feeds, all while usually smoking cannabis and dabbing, with his cute cat as a sidekick.
I came across him recently enough and subscribed. I did actually notice his cough was a bit rough sounding at times after a bong hit so maybe that was a deciding factor, and he often mentioned getting a Volcano or Hybrid model but that they could be noisy for his work.
Seems very pleased with the operation and the flavor of the device so far! You can see some of the uses in that stream.
He says here the only problem he could see so far is that the bowl doesn’t hold that much haha!
He operates in California so maybe some FC people knew of him, or heard some of those chases passing by! Heard he hangs out with B-Real of Cypress Hill and with a member of Deftones too, you can be sure all those guys are also talking about and buying these same vapes nowadays too.
Hope he gets on well with cleaning it and sticks with it, for his own good and maybe to inspire others.

Couldn't resist the Cream City Vapes 710 Mighty package. Stand, 40 capsules and Mighty for $250. Now to start researching must-have accessories...

Must haves? Oh boy!
1. glass mouthpiece. You can get one styled after the regular mighty mouthpiece, or a dented dynavap stem with the simrell adapter
2. A whip (You really don't want to use it upside down on a bong too much; the heat and excess draw can kill it because it makes the unit work harder and then the heat travels up into the electronics)
3. Maybe the bead mod

Dig deep, you'll learn about the muzzmod!
I mean, you'll have all those extra cooling units they are tossing your way...

Can you be more specific on which dented dynavap stem and which simrell adapter for the mighty. Is there anything else needed for this set up?

thanks,
Bill

Hey bill,
The link contains the name of the dynavap stem (Hula stem) but you can use any dynavap with the simrell adapter I think.

If you want to go really crazy with your mighty...

My comment on this is that adding "more" to the stock cooling unit is not only redundant, it reduces the goods that are being delivered by adding even more places for vapor to condense. Not to say it is not a pleasant experience, 'cause I'm sure the vpaor is nice and smooth through that simrell.
The cooling unit as-is is a reclaim factory, lots of vapor condenses in there.
I like to shorten the vapor path (remove cooling unit), and achieve cooling through a glass piece (usually dry, sometimes with water).
A basic wpa and something akin to this (dry) is what I'm using at the moment...

The one below I got from PIU a few months ago, part of a Mighty package; they should come back into stock sometime...
I've been surprised at how well it works (I do use this with water). Has a small issue - screen sits too high above the bowl, but this is easily compensated. This one mounts directly atop Mighty.
Each of these glass pieces goes for around twenty bucks.

You always have to choose between cooling and extra vapor, yes. IMO water steals more terps than a straw. The second link I linked is attached directly to the mighty, but you dont have to use a hydratube to not go through the cooling unit. There are many options, actually.

Ive had the second bubbler you linked from PIU, I wouldn't use it again. It broke after a week, bought another, it broke after a month. The glass is too thin for my tastes.

Thank you. Simrell has 2 adapters. Do you know which one? The titanium whip adapter or the Master adapter?

 

[VapePerson]

I linked the correct adapter. The simrell master adapter is designed to be a universal WPA; completely different usage but I can see your confusion.

The Titanium adapter

I'm newish to the mighty and enjoy using it on a water piece. How much of a concern is the overheating? Didn't realize excessive draw is an issue either.

If you're not using it upside down on a bong, its not an issue, don't worry. Even a bong with a whip attachment is fine because the mighty can properly vent the heat. With a bong youre able to draw a lot more air than you can through a straw, which makes the mighty work harder to maintain the same amount of heat. I could feel it in my hand when I was using a waterpipe with my mighty.

 

[Clapped_r6]

Weird. My mighty is still going strong, and its used exclusively upside down with a wpa on a bubbler. I haven't heard of those issues

 

[TheThriftDrifter]

Any tips on how to get the vapor to maximum density when using a water piece?

 

[vapviking]

I disagree that inverted on a water piece is detrimental to Mighty.
It was possible to kill a Crafty with overheating, but Mighty is much more robust.
In 5 years, I only saw an overheat error message once or twice. It shut down rather than over-heat. Let it cool a few minutes, back in business.

This is the first I've ever heard anyone say "don't use that Mighty too hard!"

Vape the best shit you can find?
I think one of the best suggestions is that you experiment and find your own sweet spot for use.
Maybe try fine grind, snug, full, pack high temp, let it heat soak a minute or two, slow draw.
Another is try small load with dosing cap on top to press it down.
Lots of ways to try.

I do agree with @VapePerson, that water can steal some flavor; so try your water piece dry sometime...

"don't use that Mighty too hard!"

The latest versions are cream puffs (I gave up on my 3rd replacement and sold it as it was about to run out of warranty)...they don't make em like they used to!

Bummer.
Do you have any thoughts on the weak points?
I bought a new one just a few months ago, have to see how she goes.
I think the 2 yr warranty is now extended to 3 if you register the device (this started when the rolled out Crafty+, I believe). I did register and will attempt to confirm this once the Oakland office gets back up to full staff, etc. So, I reason that my $260 divided by 3 , or $87/year is acceptable price to pay. Longer life would be a bonus, but...

I disagree that inverted on a water piece is beneficial to the mighty.
If you're telling me that the mighty cannot be killed with heat, then you are denying my personal experience with the mighty, and simple logic on electronics. Moreover, storz and bickel explicitly says that using a water pipe adapter voids the warranty. There is a reason for that.

I didnt say dont use the mighty too hard; I said not to force the mighty to work harder upside down, where the heat can go up into the electronics of the device while simultaneously making it work harder. This is why WPAs void the warranty. You can use the mighty as much as you want right side up.

I had the same experience as LesPlenty, where I went through 3 mighty units and then just gave up on it.

 

[LesPlenty]

I used to worry about my Plenty as some had said the same about heat rising and killing electronics so I got one of these, might be OK for the Mighty to ease any pain,

Or get a bong with a 45-degree joint to start with.

Totally agree on the logic of heat rising. However, I’ll just mention that I don’t use my Mighty that often on a WP, and can only draw for 10-12 seconds, before I pull the device to clear. Intermittent use like mine should be fine, but prolonged use upside down, not advisable. There are silicone hose solutions that allows the Mighty to be kept upright, and through a WP, if that is your preferred way to use it.

Either of these solutions are perfectly fine.
