I haven't been on FC too much as of late but, I finally managed (while down from Canada) to get an order into @508phineas for some 19/19 stems and was able to add a pink shorty and clear 19mm stem for the Tinymight. He informed me of the thicker side wall before ordering and I was willing to de-mod the screen on my Tinymight to give these a shot after hearing such positive reviews of his vigreux stems.
I'm impressed with my first day usage! The pink isn't quite as vibrant as I hoped but that's my only complaint.
The tapered tip is amazing and the stem doesn't get as hot as my Grav Labs Upline Taster's (which was my previous favorite). I won't be surprised if this ends up as my favorite stem, it's really nice. Back to back bowls may challenge how hot it can get, which I'll try to report back on.
I've wanted a vigreux tube for a long time, with the intention of using it with my other devices. It's a match made in heaven with the Tinymight vigreux stem. Flavour becomes a little more muted with all that cooling but I was ripping back to back hits on level 10 and it wasn't that harsh. The airflow is fantastic!
Now because I de-modded my Tinymight screen, I am seeing the "ring" again when I crank the temp to 10. I prefer to start low (3.5/4) anyways so that was just a test. A stir between the 1st and 2nd hit (it's pooched after) evens it out to my liking.
I think I culled this from old posts:

I’ll continue in the 3-4.5 range without nuts and washers. Maybe I am nuts, lol. Honestly, without them, the CU was SOOOO easy to clean the first time without them. My 15 month TM honeymoon continues
I have the (rough) temp scale in a picture in my signature as well.
