Hello, I've been happily smoking from the magic flight launch box for 3 years now, I also own an Arizer extreme q. The big one is the best, of course, but it's not really mobile. I already bought a load of powerex mah batteries and an expensive charger that has break in mode, refresh analyze, variable load settings, etc.
I am looking for a vaporizer for weed where I don't have to change the battery every 2 hours. I would like to be able to smoke for a day , or 2, then change the battery and hang the empty one on the charger. Or buy two vaporizers for when one is empty.
I saw an ad for the cloupor here in the Netherlands, but they also use an AA battery. Doesn't that give me the same problem that I'm already facing now?
I also saw some vids on youtube where I saw big clouds being created. Can you still call that vape? My Arizer is set on degrees celcius and I never have such clouds and I vape all the necessary substances from some weed that I want. Shit Snacks Milaana. I don't think this is the right place to post your question at all, but There are plenty of portable vaporizers with plenty of battery life now, and better replaceable batteries too.
All recently released well-received portables that should easily last you a day without recharging. OF Well-Known Member. Shit Snacks said:. Click to expand Stu Maconheiro Staff member. OF said:. I agree, the 'ask FC' thread seems more appropriate and would get a wider audience there? Pain Well-Known Member. Flowermate for lowest price and highest battery capacity. Get one and if you like it then get a second so you always have a charged one ready to go.
Dose it have to be battery powered For me batterys cant keep up for all day vaping When stealth is an issue then batterys are the way to go For allday vaping a few torch lighters and a vapman and im good to go allday. Stu said:. And viola! This thread is now in "Ask FC"! The solo will do twelve minute sessions per charge and they do now work while charging.
The batteries will last through hundreds if not more charges, just like any other battery. But you can buy the battery packs to replace them yourself. The torch powered options people mentioned are actually great vaporizers and nothing like what i believe you are thinking of.
Hmm, might have another look at the torch vaporizers then. Thing is that I've had those vaporbowls and had to use a torch as well. Those torches aren't realy reliable either imo. Filling em can be a hassle on some and they tend to break. Then I had a few that didn't break, but you couldn't get em properly filled and they kept ranning out of fuel real quick. I'd be most interrested in the Daisy but I can't get that over here in the Netherlands.
The vapman I can get for 70 euros. The coil in the Box needs to make electrical contact with the battery. Removing the battery label makes this possible. The battery does not work in the Box otherwise. Most battery labels simply peel off cleanly, but some manufacturers use a glue underneath the label Sanyo. You can clean this off using a product such as Goo Gone. WD also works Just spray on and rub the glue off with a paper towel to expose the metal battery casing.
Incidentally, the paper ring on the positive end of the battery does not matter much. Magic-Flight leaves them on only for cosmetic reasons and removes them if they ever come loose or get in the way.
Also, it is important NOT to let the batteries get too hot. It is okay for them to get warm when charging or in use , but hot is not good, as it shortens the life of the battery. Magic-Flight recommends that Box users get into the habit of pulling the battery back after each draw. This keeps the battery cooler and prevents accidental loss of the load and the charge. It is essential that you make sure that the tips of your peeled batteries do not come into contact with any metallic items, as this can result in accidentally making a connection between the positive nipple and the negative casing.
If such contact occurs, a charged battery will quickly overheat. Once you have peeled a battery, you must be careful to store and handle it properly. The rubber caps shipped with the Box can be used to prevent this problem. Storing batteries side-by-side in a case is fine.
All charged batteries must be either in their case or have an end-cap on the nipple end to protect them from overheating i. There are small but significant diameter variations between various manufacturers.
Because Magic-Flight has had to switch battery suppliers, the tension of the battery contact coil has been adjusted accordingly.
The result is that it is difficult to know which batteries fit snugly in your particular Box. Batteries from some manufacturers can feel a little loose. This might be annoying but it doesn't interfere with use of the Box.
To operate properly, the battery needs only to contact the battery contact coil; a snug fit isn't necessary. To achieve this, some users find it helpful to twist the battery slightly after insertion.
You can also look into the battery insertion hole while holding the end of the Box at right angles and see where the coil intrudes slightly into the opening. When the battery is inserted, you can gently pull the battery in the correct direction to make the best contact. However, you must be sure that the battery casing is exposed to the battery contact coil when the battery is fully inserted into the Box.
As long as the remaining label or tape does not interfere with that contact, the Box should work just fine. It is possible, but difficult, for someone to adjust the coil. If you would like to attempt to make the adjustment, most often the best bet is to push the entire coil upwards from the bottom of the Box towards the lid side, with the lid open. Use a vice and a tool with a flat edge that can press with an even, gradually increasing pressure on the center of the bottom of the coil.
The main risk is to apply the adjustment force exactly perpendicular to the bottom of the Box at the center of the coil. If the coil moves at all forward or backward rather than just up or down , the screen can be displaced and potentially damaged as the rod slides.
Also, just the right level of force is necessary -- too much and the coil either becomes too small or it is moved too far out of position, at which point, an opposite adjustment must be attempted. Above all else, please be safe and think about what you are doing before you do it!
If you have a Box that is not working due to this issue, and you attempt to make the adjustment and wind up further damaging the Box, please let Magic-Flight know so that you can make a warranty claim. They have the advantage of holding a charge for much longer than most batteries.
This is good since it ensures that the batteries can be delivered to the purchaser charged, even if the Box happens to be sitting on a retail store shelf for awhile. Many people seem to use the Box on an occasional or infrequent basis, and for these people, having batteries hold their charge for months is especially advantageous. One downside of the Eneloop batteries is that they should not be charged in fast 15 minute chargers, as this can decrease the life of the battery.
For people who generally use the Box every day, or multiple times every day, we also recommend the Maha Powerex batteries and the Energizer 15 minute charger. For those people who simply want to use the Box and not worry about batteries, you can always purchase cells and chargers that are sure to work correctly with the Box from our Online Store.
It depends on the construction of the device, but in general it is a risk. The problem is that most devices use two batteries in series, usually packed right next to one another. In that case, one of the batteries can side short -- releasing A LOT of heat and potentially damaging the device. The labels DO have a safety function in that they make it much harder to accidentally short the battery, particularly when it is in a device.
The best recommendation is to put tape over the battery so as to have the same coverage as the original label. Leave the two ends uncovered, but completely wrap the main body of the battery with exactly one layer of tape with no gaps. Depending on the details of the specific device, you might get away with it, but it is not recommended that you try the test without really understanding what is involved. Yes, it does. Higher voltage generally means hotter.
The battery does not read the same voltage when it is in use as it does when in the charger, so the specifics of how much hotter, or even if the difference is noticeable, depends on the specifics of the battery and the sensitivity of your taste. Shipped mAh batteries should provide 5 minutes of vapor draw time.
This is only a rough guideline; the actual count depends on technique, condition of the load, and state of the battery. NiMH batteries deteriorate gradually with use, and more quickly if overheated. A smart charger that performs a conditioning cycle helps to prolong battery life.
Mostly, "mAh" describes how long the battery lasts. A battery with more charge storage capacity tends to hold a higher voltage for longer as well, so higher mAh tends to also mean somewhat hotter operation for somewhat longer, if the battery is fresh.
For example, Powerex batteries operate the Box hotter as well as longer, and because of the significantly increased heat, the timing and breath control of the user must be proportionately more accurate to prevent overheating changes taste. Magic-Flight strongly recommends that new users become skilled with the stock batteries before trying higher energy density batteries. Tests have shown them to be top performers. Comments in forums also show that they are popular with LB users who say that their superior performance more than justifies their slightly higher cost.
Batteries have venting holes at the positive tip that are there to vent gases in case of shorting or overheating. In the interests of safety, however, it must also be reported that some chargers do not do as good of a job detecting when a battery is already charged.
If people put a mostly charged battery into a fast charger, and that fast charger is not smart enough to detect this condition, it can potentially overcharge the battery causing it to get hot, and in particularly bad cases, to vent, leaving a white residue not the end of the world.
For some chargers, it can also be rather bad to put the battery in backwards. Don't try it! High quality chargers generally handle both of these conditions gracefully. Magic-Flight uses in-house custom built testers that draw a lot of current and check for changes in the voltage to determine the battery state. You should be able to feel sufficient heat, and if not, the battery probably needs recharging.
A little bit of experience with fresh batteries versus used ones quickly gives you a really good indication of what is going on. No, not at all. NiMH batteries do not have a "memory" effect. The charger picks up where the charge is at and adds what is necessary to "top off".
In regards to charge energy delivery, there are two approaches: "slow charging" and "fast charging". In slow charging, energy is delivered at a low constant rate that does not require charge endpoint determination.
These are also known as "trickle chargers". They are not the "best" chargers, but they are reliable, simple, and safe. Their main disadvantage is that they can take a very long time to charge a battery 8 to 12 hours. Slow trickle chargers can also diminish battery life if batteries are simply left in the charger indefinitely i. Fast chargers are much more complex and thus more expensive since they can deliver energy at a much greater rate than the battery can withstand.
For a fast charger to be "good", it must perform two tasks:. Failure to achieve either of these aspects can definitely shorten NiMH battery life the number of recharge cycles and the max energy that can be stored per cycle. Specifically, the current delivered must be matched against the battery capacity. Also, if there are surges, ripples, or spikes, the battery discharge characteristics can be adversely affected.
This in turn can result in a Box running either way too hot or way too cold, depending on the type of battery damage sustained. Furthermore, if the charge endpoint is not determined correctly, the battery can be overcharged, resulting in it getting very hot too hot to touch which can also permanently damage the battery. Such issues are more noticeable with LSD rechargeable batteries than with standard rechargeable.
Unfortunately, for fast charger manufacturers, determining when a NiMH battery is "full" is far from easy. The battery itself provides little indication of its internal state. There are three approaches generally taken:.
Each of these approaches has significant problems and are likely to fail if used exclusively. A good charger needs to test for at least two, if not all three, of these conditions to function reliably. Many fast chargers on the market simply do not test for charge endpoint conditions very well or very reliably. The primary reason for this choice is safety: anyone can use the bundled charger without having to understand specifics about the rechargeable batteries. These stock chargers are convenient insofar as they are compact they fit in the tin and are known to be a good reliable option, not because they are the fastest possible means for charging a battery.
What charger does Magic-Flight recommend? Unfortunately, many charger manufacturers generally cut corners whenever possible in their product designs.
