Was very stoked about it but due to circumstances i couldn't use the highly anticipated device when i first got it (came with a faulty stem) and it took forever trying to get the manufacturer to send me the replacement part that would make it work.
Sorry you went through that with the mystery vape. Especially after the annoying process buying it. I don't know which type it is, buy hopefully one day you can get Bak to it and get it finally working so you can try it out. Though you may end up liking the TM2 more anyway. I've yet to try either.

Anything worth doing, is worth overdoing.
I just tried and mine does not produce any vapour at 1 or 2.
I should mention that I usually run my unit in on-demand mode, releasing the button between hits. However, I found it takes forever when it's set on 1. Although I haven't set it on session mode yet. I probably will be trying that next. I tend to hold the bottom down between hits and keep puffing. This brings on the heat faster, albeit at a lower temp than a higher setting.

If your unit doesn't produce at those low settings, even after considering the other factors, you could re-calibrate your unit. I'm not suggesting you do this, but it is an option you have. I have never done it myself.

I thought about doing this for a while but I didn't yet: You can set the temp a bit higher just for the initial cigar puffs, and when you notice it's starting to get going, lower the temp back down and go to town.

my tm2 is out for delivery today! will try to remember to update tomorrow with initial impressions. Unfortunately mail usually runs after i start work so I probably won't be able to try it out til late tonight ;.;

while I do own a ball vape, my only other portables to compare to are the HR Fury Edge and dynavaps. So I'm sure I'm in for quite the treat

Boy will you have something epic to look forward to when you get home. I kid you not.

When mine came recently, I showed up at the post office at 8 am and by force-of-personality got them to bend the rules "just this once." LOL

I hope the work hours fly-by.

Well, it officially arrived, later than pretty much any other mail dropoff I can think of recently.

Shoutouts to POTV for pre-charging the battery they had installed in the unit. I've thrown at least 5 fresh dosing capsules at it so far, just got to magenta.

Gotta say, this thing pretty much meets all the wild expectations I had from reading about it so often over the years. On demand works just as well as advertised; so far I haven't even tried session mode. I had been wary of on-demand mainly because I've always been sensitive to stopping a session bowl halfway through and having to resume. I've always noticed the flavor starting the second session is just very offputting. Absolutely none of that with the TM though. I can set a bowl down, resume half an hour later, and the hit is still as smooth as if i'd just set it down a few seconds prior.

Temperature settings as-is are pretty peachy for me. I've found my initial sweet spot around 5. I can go higher for the first couple hits, but the last hit flavor definitely goes past where I want it at a 6. So far I've been exclusively using the beaded stem that comes with the PH edition from POTV, but I'll make myself give the shorty CU stem a try later tonight. Dosing caps only to keep things a bit cleaner.

The draw style was really easy to get down. All I do is wait til the buzz, then a second or two past while I'm breathing out, then just do a nice steady pull for a good 7-10 sec. Airflow is about as open as I was expecting, which is still far more wide-open than any other portable I've had the opportunity to try so far, and exactly what I'm looking for in my personal devices.

Seriously, my only gripe so far is that I'm a little nervous about the all-wood body since my hands sweat a ton. Everything else with function has been flawless.

Excited for what the next weeks of getting used to it will hold

Yeah, it's a great vape and incredibly efficient. The short stem is actually pretty useful because you can push the cooling unit almost all the way down and pack a small disc of herb at the bottom, tamp it down a little then vape it all in one big, surprisingly cool hit at 6-8.

I see some members here are getting new TM’s, congratulations!
If you use the TM “stock” glass stems, and like to adjust the CU for various load sizes, this cheap “tool” is handy.

Hi!
One question because i couldnt find it in this very long thread.
I have a solo 3 and the draw resistance is nearly too much for me. Can anyone compare the resistance between a solo 3, a dynavap or a mighty and the tinymight 2.
Thanks!

Ooh! I have two of those things!

Compared to a dynavap M, the airflow is a little more restricted, but it still overall feels very open. On a dyna, I usually move one of the o-rings to partially cover the airhole, and the TM2 airflow is definitely less restricted than where I end up preferring my dynas.

It's not quite a "wide open" draw, but it's definitely the most open out of any of the portables I've tried so far (though, to be fair, a lot of those have been head shop specials). It doesn't feel like sipping a milkshake the same way my fury edge does.

So you are saying the tinymight is less restricted than a mighty and a solo 3?
Thanks!

To be totally clear, I have not had the opportunity to try either a mighty or a solo 3, so I can't say a direct comparison to those. I just meant that I had tried both a dynavap and the tm2 so I could directly compare those two for you.

Compared to the short list that I have tried, it's definitely much more on the open draw side, especially with the beaded stem. The cooling unit stem can get a little restricted during a hit, but generally the airflow is pretty open.

Take a look at Sneaky Pete's (formed spike screen) or 420EDC (SS screen) high flow stems for your Solo. They're a commercial version of the TableTop Bong stem hack and much more open.

And yes, IMO, depending on stem and screen the TinyMight is more open than your examples.

A quick update with something I've noticed:

I had started with packing pretty close to the rim of the stem, and was getting a ring of deeper roast with green in the center/outsides.

I went ahead and moved the CU up so that the top of the load now sits about 1/4in (~7mm) from the end of the stem. Just took a couple hits and can confirm the roast is much more even, and the vapor still very powerful, even with just a pinch.

I'm not going to lie... This thing is halfway making me regret buying a ball vape, just because it fits my use case so much better. It's been so nice already to be able to take a hit, let my lungs recover, and have it be just a few seconds away from feeling like a natural next-hit on all my other session vapes.

Now I inevitably have to wonder what vape would manage to come close to matching this experience at a lower price point :hmm:

EDIT: This is a weird one. I just happened to notice POTV apparently canceled their discount on the TM2, and instead they're doing a grinder gift for their black friday 'deal'

Looks like I really made my order at the absolute perfect time, since when I placed it they were still doing the $20 off sale. I've already got a bcg and one of their freebies anyway so I didn't really need another grinder.

Re: draw restriction, it’s important to note that 99% of what people label as “draw restriction” from the TM2 is restriction created by the stem and/or stock cooling unit. The TM2 itself has amazingly open airflow, if you pair it with a more open stem it has the most open airflow of any vape I’ve hit.

Once you do and get to swapping batteries, don't let the new one drop in vertically. That is said to eventually damage the device, because the battery contact sits on the circuit board and circuit boards don't appreciate rough treatment like that.

I turn the device sideways and slowly slide it in.

Thank you kindly for that tip. I have 4 batteries scheduled for delivery today. I've been charging the one that came with the TM2 frequently (on the external).

I think I've been rougher re-inserting the battery than I will be moving forward.

Point taken. I like to treat my gear well.

Thank you again!

To go along with that hint don't screw the battery cap down as far as possible. Just go until there is some resistance. That avoids flattening the battery spring and maintains its "springiness" for as long as possible. When needed the battery spring can be bent back up using a hooked tool, small crochet hooks are ideal.

Just go until there is some resistance.
That and you get the battery buzz/vibration. Maybe turn the battery cover a quarter turn more but that’s all that’s necessary. I always insert my batts sideways to avoid extra pressure on the bottom contact.

Though having both an OG TM and PH TM2 the battery polarities are opposite so I always need to keep that in mind: I fried the OG’s board by inserting the battery the wrong way (but I got it fixed so it’s like a TM 1.5 now though the bottom contact has lost some of its springiness - and I’ve yet to be able to bend it up enough back to the original state without taking it apart, which I’ve done in the past but not since its RMA).

My THC hiatus unfortunately continues with no end in sight. (SIGH). I miss my TMs and look forward to using them again, whenever that will be. I’m living vicariously through you all. Cheers. :peace:

Last night I asked someone who isn't a regular cannabis consumer and who has the commensurate low-tolerance that generally correlates with low consumption, if she'd like to "get high?"

It was affirmative.

I introduced the M2 PH loaded with Durban Poison set to Zero in Session mode.

I gave it to her for the first hit. She had a nice draw.

I don't think I got anything

Did it taste really delicious?

It does taste delicious, but I don;t think I got anything

Since you think you didn't get anything, perhaps have a bit more. But I think you goy something.

[She has more]

Yeah, I don't think I'm getting anything, but it really is delicious.

[She has more]

Wow this is really nice! I didn't think I was getting anything, but I'm really high

Finally we gave a discussion where she praises the experience as "so much better" than smoking.

I just use the tamp tool in the device, it works great
