Before buying, I was attracted by the portability of the TM. Now that I have it, I can say it's pretty heavy and it wouldn't survive a bad drop on the ground: other than the stem, it has glass components on the inside.
I wouldn't take it outdoor as thoughtlessly as I do with my Fury2 or Flowermate Cap or Mighty/Crafty.
It can't be loaded while walking as I do with my F2. Screwing/unscrewing is a delicate operation and if done bad could lead to heater dislodgement.
My statement is: why buying such a tiny vape if the only safe use (imho) is home use? Why (in your case, having already a really tiny and well performing vape) not getting a desktop when a V-Tower can be had for less than 99€ shipped? Or, if you want to go with high praised artisanal vapes, getting a Tubo/Tetra? The vape is probably less eye appealing, bigger but since it's basically home use, who cares? Lamart.ch CS works well and the guy is also active on this board. The vape perform quite similarly to the TM.
I took out from a drawer my 2 years old, barely used Tubo. IMHO there's not SO much difference with the TM to call home about.
I disagree with the portability - completely. Yes, not something that I would be as comfortable as compared to a fury edge/mighty/crafty... but I also would not want to take something like that with me if I have a TM as an option? I took the TM hiking up a mountain this weekend, really no issues at all. Just left it in my pocket in the hemp bag until ready to use, enjoy, and put away. I didnt have to put it in a special case, or a backpack, or anything like that. Just be careful with it.
Loading on the go for me has been taken care of with the Jyarz chico full of pre ground. Takes 5 seconds to suck start a stem. Granted you are correct that you cant really do that easily *while* walking, realistically from the time you finish a bowl, you can be reloaded and ready to go in 15-20 seconds. Additionally TM sells dosing caps on their website, I just dont know how well they really work yet. Trying to get my hands on some for myself. Pics to follow...gotta edit them in on the back end from my phone.
so yeah, another great day with the TM. Doesn’t really get much better than this!
Figured out my bowl/stem issue was that nut that secures the tube where you insert stem ( remember was loose when I got It and I tightened back down but not enough) I believe it was not good seal.... back in business !
how snug should the stem fit inside? Loose? Tight? Little play or none? Is it easy to insert or take a little force to insert? I’ve got extra oring if I overtighten but was curious how stems sat for everyone else?
I've been out of town since Friday, congrats on getting yours! glad to see it appears to be living up to your standards and all of the accessories and equipment you ordered has been put to good use!
I keep mine basically as loose as possible without the stem-ring rattling, without the stem itself rattling... I dont like when there's too much resistance THATS when I get nervous about damaging something.
On another note, back to my CS issue, just as an example of the frustrating communication, I had send this email 4 or 5 times:
I was wondering if you have an idea on when the water pipe adapter that I had ordered will be shipped? I paid for it with my original Tiny Might order, when the Tiny Might showed up there was a piece of paper included that said the adapter was out of stock but will ship when it is in stock. It looks like its in stock on the website, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't forgotten about! It was the 10/14/18 Adapter, original order ID 1457
Also, if its possible, can I add a few things to that order when it does go out?
I would like to add:
(2) Basket Screens:

(1) Beeswax:
https://tinymightvape.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=60&product_id=66
(2) Dosing Capsules:
https://tinymightvape.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=60&product_id=71
If possible, great, please let me know how I can pay you for the additional items. I would like to avoid paying shipping twice, so I was hoping to get everything all in the same order!
Thank you!
Brian
And this was the response I finally got, over the weekend. BTW, seems like many of us have suddenly been receiving responses, and more frequently, so at the very least things seems to be improving there:
Hello,
Apologies for the late reply.
We will send the the connection adapter soon.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Thanks,
David_TM
But yeah just frustrating as they didn't address the majority of the rest of the email... Like should I be ordering the additional accessories myself or will they include/charge me? I'm sure theres somewhat of a language barrier so I dont expect communications to be perfect, but if you could manage the response I got, you would think you could manage the rest? Weird. I guess I'll wait and see what shows up with my WPA, if anything, and then order whatever else I wanted.
