I love the idea of different wood options for TM2 but I'll have a hard time justifying another one since it's covered up by a leather sleeve.

Is it a trick of the light or is that purpleheart!?

Yes its purple heart.
Toward the end of the week ill post some better pictures outside with better light.
Are there any differences versus the standard TM2 other than the color of the wood?

All who wander are not lost...
How did you manage to obtain a purpleheart? I thought there was a slight delay per above.
Perhaps one change. In an email exchange with me about RED/purpleheart Tinymight said they were going to make a slight internal change which would be an enhancement. That’s all I can and will say until it’s officially released - and since it’s internal I’m not looking to disassemble it once I get a purpleheart edition to verify.

I should probably tell my story, back in November i started a conversation with TM about trade in of my OG. We got talking, they recognised my name from the forum and they offered me a Purple heart to review, and share details with you guys.
SInce then i have been sworn to keep things a secret.
It took a while to get my unit (picked it up today). The guys at TM have been trying to squeeze every improvement they could in to this release.
Performance wise, everything is the same. The improvements are all related to fixing common points of failure.
I guess you guys now know about the new stems, with balls? Comes in two sizes.
There is also improvements to the button, now it has a silicone cushion, which makes it more sturdy. I think this is a known improvement as well.
The top section has had a slight change to avoid heat transfer.
There is also another improvement, but this is to be kept secret until release
Its not been plain sailing for the guys at TM to get the purple heart to work. First attempts shrunk and changed shape and size. They have had to develop a unique process to 'cure' the wood and make it stable.
Now all parts are washed in a 7 stage process, then baked to purge all smells. Then finally they do a heater burn off under a vaccum machine.
Purple heart TM is now being tested, and release should be in around a month.
Phew. Glad to get all that out in the open.

Thanks for sharing all that! Definitely must have been hard to keep it quiet haha I find it so interesting that they really stuck it out to find a way to make the purple heart work, instead of just moving on to a different type of exotic wood... Perhaps has to do with sourcing deals etc? Anyway exciting stuff!
So curious about this! The rest sounds great
And this is absolutely phenomenal to hear from a pretty mass-produced vape manufacturer!! All should be doing this

Oh, I would need to hear all about the 7 stage process, just how and what it introduces to make the wood stable.
I agree this is one beautiful vape with actually a great track record so far, and I really don't want to sound negative. I have a basic feeling that this is all very safe.
But I doubt they are just washing with water 7X?

They are probably only able to get not fully cured Purple Heart so they either have to wait a year for it to cure or they need to force cure it. Uncured wood does annoying things, like change shape, if you try to make furniture or high precision objects out of it.

Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing.
I really like the look of those new beaded stems. Any reports on the cooling?

At the beginning I wanted to make a picture to all my stem accessories to ask you help in finding the best compromise in using tm at its best final version - both to keep it at home and carry it out...
But after a night of inspiration and creativity, bored to vape a not so tasty weed with my short wood stem+ short glass pipe (that i used for many months with pleasure), I took back the glass stem and reinforced it.
Normally i just put a plastic ring around the glass to help a little, but when I found this piece from Storm vaporizer (that perfectly cover and make pressure on it!), I felt in love with this new look and bulletproof tip.
It also avoid to let thing falls inside, and make the hit more comfortable and fresh for the mouth. The design reminds me Fallout vibes
What do you think?
Doing that, now i found much better taste with glass - I think that wood kept bad smells despite the cleaning you suggested me.
Now I want to make some final diy so I have few questions:
1- does that strong light on the bottom can be covered somehow? I could dismount it and add a little bit of cotton in that area (between the wood and the metal), or directly insert it mounted in the hole with a needle, do you suggest anything better?
2- how to "clean" and make almost new all the gray areas that are a bit signed?
3- Is it possible to color the ring and battery button(only top), which is the right material to spray it and should be long lasting (and mostly that doesn't fall internally) ?
4- Where i can find a cheap cu? There's a trusted source or forum (here or elsewhere) where to buy it? I see that Aliexpress doesn't sell anymore tm spare parts
5- i found a single piece to fit in the cu, do you know which kind of bolt do I need? Option is between 20/25mm(bottom right in the image) , i hope that one of them it's the right one.
For now, thanks to all this beautiful forum and for all the improvements I m making

I went for a walk:
First time i used it, i thought it was faulty. Had the dial on 0 not 7. What a dick. I was tired, it was dark (Thats my excuses and i am sticking to them).
After my first go. Performance wise its identical to my TM2. Might have to hit them side by side to tell if there is any difference. So far i cant detect any.
I like the stem. This is the smaller of the beaded stems, about the same size as the metal stem. It has a glass screen and a concave screen. The bowl size is about what i would usually set the CU too. The mouthpiece feels nice to use.
Felt a little dodgy takes photos of a vape in peoples front gardens. Probably thought i was some kinda pervert.

Just got the glass stem with 15 balls, I'd highly recommend it to anyone. I still use the stock stem when I take it outside or for quick hits, but the 15-ball stem stays a lot cooler over a longer session. V2 dosing capsules fit inside perfectly and keep things much cleaner.
Howdy friends,
Wanted to check your interest and feedback on a TM2 stem I came up with, I have a bunch of stem designs but have trouble deciding where to jump in at, so I figured I'd start off with the basics and see how things go.
I'm calling this one the Essentials stem.
It's a zirconia ceramic replacement for the stock quartz stems.
This product combines the durability of the stock titanium stem with the purity of the glass stem.
It's 75MM long (~3") to ensure comfortable use with the new stainless steel lined TM2's as the stock stems now get very hot.
The glass stem gets hot because its short, and the titanium one gets hot because it conducts much more heat up the stem.
This has been designed as a solution to that.
Works directly with the standard cooling unit for easy compatibility.
Features a built in 14MM water pipe adapter.
Retail price is just $60.
This design is approved for production and ready for me to order, I just want to see what TM2 owners think.

@invertedisdead how hard would it be to do a stem with the same material but with spikes, so the stem does not need the cooling unit for cooling?. Or instead of spikes any other design you think can be better without needing the cooling unit.
