The Toad from Morwood

I came to visit my parents a few days, and a few minutes after unpacking, I realized I forgot my travelling box, with my DV, Anvil and TA… being in panic mode (I think I should have a clean DV in my car at all time) I remembered I took my Toad :bowdown: So, I’ve been using it exclusively for a few days, which I think is a very good way to get to know your gear ! I must say, I am really impressed by the way this vaporizer works. I go the way Dan suggested, 6 sec heating, 6 sec inhaling while heating and 6 extra sec without any heating. And that for the first two draws, then as you will :) I do find it is best to change the battery quite often, like every 3 or 4 bowls. And once you get a good hang of it, you know it by the heat of the vapor in your mouth. I am really impressed by this little Toad:D



My savior !

Hi —

New user here, but experienced vaper. Coming from a Legacy Pro — a ?: are ‘clouds’ really not the way of this vape? Have the high heater, but while I get a nice bit of vape if I hold the button to preheat for 10 secs, then inhale while holding another 8 secs or so, it’s quite different from the Legacy at a high (say 390+) heat.

Thoughts appreciated, thanks.

Try slowing down your inhale while also going less aggressive on the heat, at least at first so you don't combust. Used a fully charged battery. Clean the contacts if you think you have to. Grind fine but not to fine but as consistently as possible. Don't tamp or do the lightest of tamps if desired. I also like to not use the straw vacuum method and instead use a funnel to load the herb. This makes the pack and airflow through the herb more consistent and a bit looser.

Lastly keep at it. Theres a technique but the you will get it. You can definitely get clouds.

Flower thats on the drier side helps too.

Thanks for the info. Not packing tight at all, and grind level should be ok. Def not combusting - light brown result at best. Will keep ‘working’ on it :)

I'd start by cleaning all the connectors, including the button. It's easy to do, the instructions are very clear and detailed here (first post):

It's more important than it seems with the Toad.
Once it's ready to use, and with your own right technique, it's perfectly capable of producing good milky clouds, with a well-charged battery, as it's quite power-hungry (It's a good idea to change batteries every 3 or 4 sessions at most, to keep the same intensity.)

Hey all. Served a long time on the wait list and I finally got my number on the last batch. Was wondering if the TinyMight and Toad had the same outer diameter for stems? I'd like to get some cooling stems before it gets here but most makers seem to have TM stems in stock more often than ones specific for the Toad. Thanks in advance!

Toad stems have an outer diameter of about 14mm. Tinymight is around 16mm.

Yeah not at all the same size, you're just lucky that toad stems are even being offered now after all the TM stems! (many more people have a TM than a Toad of course)

@farf

and... for your information, if you just got your number, you have about six months to wait before receiving your Toad.

That gives you time to catch plenty...

you even have time to have a personalized one made if you want...

High Artisan often has them. Currently he has two in stock.
I grabbed one of the red ones....

And the ones that Dan offers in wood are also magnificent...

Thank you guys!

I know the function is designed similarly (straw over a coiled heater) and the stems look very alike without close measurement. I think in the end I'm going to have a few custom stems made now that I know the exact diameter of the Toad's bore. Got a few glass ones to use when I placed my order as well as the blackwood option from Dan so I'm pretty set on variety. I just like art glass so knowing the measurements will help me get customs made by a wider variety of artists I like.

From what I got to experience, it’s all about heat retention. If you follow the basic 6 sec / 6 sec / 6 sec (for a low heater, 3 sec of high heater), that last 6 sec is about emptying the heat in the heater. But if you lower that 6 sec to 5 or 4, that little heat will remain for next heating cycle, and it’s that heat that will give that extra clouds. But it can lead to combust aswell. And obviously, you can heat longer, and inhale speed (rather slow) is a factor aswell. That’s why I find this kind of vape being ‘organic’, you really must feel everything going on. And then the magic happens :)
I agree with @Duba about batteries, and I realize now I never dearly cleaned my toad up to now. Maybe I could give it a go !
And thinking now, I remember someone ‘feathering’ the button, that seems a way to go too :sherlock:

Please excuse my ignorance. But I can't fine much info on how this thing operates. Is it similar to a TM2 in function?

Each piece being an individual piece of art is not lost on me. They are very beautiful.

Hello All,

I’m part of Batch 13 and am seeking reassurance on when I’ll likely be able to enjoy this work of art. For those of you who have a Toad, how long after payment did it arrive at your doorstep? Planning to use this waiting period to learn more about the device, how to optimize it’s performance, maintenance/cleaning and accessories. TIA

I won a raffle for a Toad from either batch 11 or 12 and paid for it in February, but am still waiting. Was hoping to have it early in July, but unfortunately Dan had a few emergencies recently (injury in March, spouse injury in July) so progress has slowed. Hope to see it by the end of the year, but no sure how long recovery will take.

Hope Dan and his spouse are able to rest and recover soon!
