The Crafty Vaporizer vs The Mighty
Posted by ADRIAN V
Vaporizing, or vaping, is an innovative technology allowing users the benefits of smoking cannabis, for both health and recreational reasons.
The Mighty and Crafty vapes are premium convection-based vaporizers. Vaping technology uses either conduction or convection to extract the active chemicals in cannabis.
Conduction involves the heating of the herb on a hot plate. This vaporizes the volatile compounds in the herb.
Conduction is not as efficient or healthy as convection, which uses hot air passing over the herb to extract its constituent active ingredients.
THC is the chemical responsible for recreational use of cannabis, while CBD is known for its proven medical benefits for chronic pain, among other ailments.

Differences
The Crafty and Mighty vaporizers are manufactured by Storz and Bickel of Germany, renowned for the build quality of their equipment.
The Mighty vaporizer is larger than the Crafty, by around 1 inch in both height and width.
This provides the space for a second battery pack, and a display screen showing the adjustable target temperature, the current temperature, and battery level.
The second battery pack gives the Mighty a 90-minute usage time, compared with the 45 minutes obtainable with the Crafty.
The lack of a display screen on the Crafty is made up for by Bluetooth capability and a smartphone app, available for this machine.
This can be used to adjust the temperature between the default 180 oC, and the booster temperature, 195 oC.
This temperature control is important for users of the Crafty and the Mighty vaporizers. At lower convection temperatures, more CBD is released from the herb than THC.
This is beneficial to those users who wish to experience the medical benefits of vaping. At higher temperatures, More THC is released.
This is a more appropriate setting for users seeking recreational benefits. The Mighty vaporizer allows a greater temperature range for the user, and thus will be more beneficial to medical users.
The temperature in the Crafty vape can be adjusted using the smartphone app to either 185 oC or 195 oC.
This puts this vape more in the recreational category than medical, though it is still beneficial for both uses.
The Crafty’s smaller size makes it ideal for carrying discreetly in a pocket, and although the Mighty is large, it can still readily be carried in a bag or coat.
