My TM seems to begin acting strange.
I'm usually temp stepping after 1 or 2 good long hits from 4 to 5 to 6 until I reach 9.
It worked quite well like this, my TM was bought in October 2020.
In August 2021 I cleaned all contacts because of poor performance. After this my TM worked like on day1.
Now it seems that on temp 8-9.5 nothing really happens (no extraction). The warm up time is (when device is warm and used previously on 6 or 7) for 8 or 9 round about a second. I think that's strange. When I set the dial to 10+ I'm getting huge clouds as I used to have on 8 or 9 and the heat up time is as long as I'm used to. When the TM is cold and I start with a fresh load on temp 8 or 9 I get good clouds and the heat up time is as long as it should. So what's going on with temp 8-9?
So it's like this now: I start on 4, go to 5, 6, 7 after several hits. Then I go to temp 8 or 9 (nothing happens like I'm on temp 2 or 3) but when I go to 10 it extracts fine again.
I never adjusted the temps and my herbs are the same as every time.
I'm afraid to send it in... Before that I will buy a second one so I'm not without a tinymight anytime. I will contact the support soon but I think they won't be able to help me (or just do their calibration thing) because they could say 'ignore temp 8 or 9 then, if 10 works as it should'
Hi there. Yesterday I noticed the performance was getting worse. So I took it apart again and cleaned the whole device and it's contact points. Now everything is shiny and should behave as it did on day one.
Shit. Same worse performance. So I recalibrated my tinymight 1 step higher. Same problem, the higher temperature values gave shitty performance. So I wanted to calibrate it again and then I found the solution why my tinymight gives weak performance at higher settings.
I made a video where you can see that touching (pressing) the potentiometer changes the calibration color without turning it. So my potentiometer seems fucked. That's why my extraction is so much worse at higher temps.
Now I will order another tinymight, then I will send this broken one back to Finland for service.
I hope this helps other users with poor performance.
Edit: how do I get in touch with them? I don't have Instagram or any other social media. Shall I write them an email or should I open a warranty request via my order on the account page?
