Haha, that's funny...I hate the taste of plastic, I hope this tastes nothing like a Mighty!

The following review is borrowed from a post "monkeytime" made on another forum.

" So, I'm writing this while working on my 4th load with mine.
First was short stem with the extra domed screen moved down to the end of the glass, small load. Ran at 6 the whole time and it was a nice introductory time. Great flavor, but over so fast.
Second and third were both short stem, cooling unit pushed down to maybe 3/8" or 10mm left for the bowl. I'll call them medium loads, all spooned in, only tamped to clean it up, there was no compression. Both of these were all over the board for temps and draw speeds just playing.
The fourth load is what we're on right now. I switched to a long stem and pushed the CU back yea far.....
I started at 7.5, the vapor was tolerable, but the flavor was meh, so we've dropped down to 6.5. With this deep of a load, stirring has been necessary so far. I'm thinking maybe at 7 with a very slow draw you could work with out a stir, but I haven't found that combo yet. What was left of the flavor after trying 7.5 was nice while it lasted. That's .175g of fine grind from a BCG.
A few general thoughts.....
Fit and finish are as nice as everyone has said. Mine arrived very dry so she got a quick wipe down with oil, I'll continue with that until I get a chance to wax her properly.
The cooling unit is also as effective as everyone before has said, believe the hype! After my first small load, I already noticed some honey gathering on the nut in the center on most sides. I'm curios as to how soon it will start affecting flavor?
The small red led is very bright! I can see it glowing as it flashes on the other side of the vape between the wood and aluminum.
It's unlike me, but I didn't download the directions for this one before it arrived. Had I, an earlier post from
@Lozo talking about the locking ring and such made no sense to me! Now with it in had, it makes complete sense. However, I will say that I'm disappointed in FC in general on this vape so far. I can't believe no one has posted a pic of the heating chamber dissembled before this. I'm usually no where near fast enough to need to post these types of pictures.
It reassembles from left to right starting with the screen dropping in first, then the o-ring and retaining ring.
I'm not sure if it's the cooling unit collecting, my current load material or if my ability to smell which usually isn't very good is working better today, but this seems to be a rather smelly unit after use. Have others found this with theirs?
Battery usage seems to be where I'd expect it and on par with my Mi's and other unregulated vapes. From early uses, it seems to regulate temps pretty well as the battery voltage is drops.
There is always condensation inside the mouthpiece after taking a hit. I'm assuming some combination of the heating element, air path and the CU isn't stripping it and that's why the hits are so smooth.
I'm already thinking capsules with this would be a great pairing...... off to try a few of the ones I already have.
I like the fact that the air intake is on the top, somewhere I never end up putting my fingers. The bottom feels natural with my hands and the small size of this vape, but the temp dial moves very easily. I also wish there were indents or a physical notch at the major numbers, that might be enough to curb moving the dial?
This thing can kill a load if you want it to.... here's that 4th bowl. There is a tiny touch of green left there, I could have possible stirred and gave it another go, but I felt no need.
I'm sure I've forgotten something I wanted to mention, maybe I'll remember it for the next post.
Trying it thru water is on it's way and maybe a short video. It's an easy vape to like, I'm sure getting to know it better won't hurt it any."
