Convection only vapes kinda make me smile, i enjoy them, but it makes me load up and go again and i never seem to want to stop or lay back and enjoy the buzz. Even with stirring, tamping, drying out my grind, or any other assitance I can offer it.
Many people conclude that it must only be an "amazing convection flavor" that keeps them coming back for another hit or ten.
Hybrid like Crafty+ with a load of 0.08 to 0.1, I effortlessly get the most satisfying vapor I have ever got and without heat or burnt mouth, the harder i draw the nicer it feels, and I love the taste. After, I often say holy fuck as I am so impressed with the effects compared to anything ive tried. I can then put it down and truly enjoy the effects for half an hour, to an hour. The ABV is evenly dark brown, even before you dump it out and stir it all together!
I have issues with herb supply at times so convection only is not getting any of my enthusiasm lately, nor my vape budget. That is my experience your one might be different.
Many vapes that primarily use heated air seem to walk a fine line between all the extraction they can manage, and charring IMO.
Either way I am satisfied with my conclusions from my first statements.
Anyway, the Mighty/Crafty can be manipulated to extract very quickly but I have found that slower intake may get better effects overall.
Other TM put offs for me are, experiments with placement of load to assist eveness or lessen stirring, buying third party stems to help it work better or adapt to a water filter for heat and harshness and the chance these won't even fit, being careful of a glass stem, coil in the airpath, (anodized?) aluminium receptacle for hard glass stem sliding in and out, it doesn't look too portable to me, short stem = possibly too hot for me and long stem looks too big, the order waiting time is quickly growing and this is before one hiccup has thrown the program. I was warned to avoid newly christened makers on here for some reason, and I've had direct experience of dissappearing makers/websites before that bittered me.
The only postal service here will confiscate all batteries, so the replaceable battery feature raises issues for me.
Maybe there will be a better time to go buy the TM, when it has possibly caught up and established, for example I have waited for this to occur with Grasshopper for the last 5 years. And I think Hopper labs are more than just a one man thing!
And I recommend the Crafty+ over the Mighty at the moment. Due to improved performance and less potential for cracking over the years.
If it helps, there was up to 30% off at Black Friday and 20% off from the sb website, so 4/20 should be similar. Also the Mighty deals will be VERY cheap by then I think.
I hope you enjoy whichever vape you choose!
the tinymight... ...you can finish a .1-.2g load in 2 big hits if you want. there's no way the mighty could do that.
I agree with many of your thoughts, but there is a way the Mighty/Crafty can do that extremely well, I learned it from biohacker on here.
You need to heatsoak the loads but I used the method for a year or two.
I owned a Mighty for over a year and while the draw resistance is great the efficiency is not.
One hit from a Splinter, Tetra, or Tinymight is worth two or three from a Mighty or any of these hybrid/conduction session vapes.
I disagree,
You are possibly stating opinions as fact, and that's without much consideration for a good few factors.
I dont think you own or have tried a Tinymight yet so that statement is a stretch imo.
