The Tinymight 2 is a handmade convection vaporiser from Finland. It offers both on-demand and session mode, a physical temperature control and replaceable 18650 batteries. Heat-up time in on-demand mode: around 5 seconds.
1. Insert and charge the battery
Unscrew the bottom cap and insert an 18650 battery (positive terminal facing up). The Tinymight 2 has no built-in charging port – you charge the battery externally in an 18650 charger. A fully charged 2800 mAh battery lasts for around 8–12 sessions, depending on use. Tip: get a spare battery so you are never without power when out and about.
2. Grind and fill the herb
Remove the mouthpiece. Grind your herb medium to medium-coarse – slightly coarser than with hybrid vaporisers, because pure convection works with hot air. Fill about 0.1 g loosely into the chamber. Do not pack it down; the air must be able to flow completely through the material. Reattach the mouthpiece.
3. Choose the mode and set the temperature
The temperature control (dial) is located on the side of the device. Turn it to the desired setting:
- Low (left) – approx. 170–180 °C, pure flavour
- Middle – approx. 190–200 °C, balanced
- High (right) – approx. 220–240 °C, maximum extraction
On-demand mode: Hold the button and draw at the same time. The heater runs only while you are pressing it. Session mode: Press the button 3 times quickly – the device heats continuously for about 3 minutes.
4. Draw technique
On-demand: Hold the button, then after 3–5 seconds draw slowly. Release the button as soon as you have had enough – the heater stops immediately. Draw slowly and evenly for 8–10 seconds. Drawing too quickly cools the heating element and reduces vapour production.
Session: Simply draw whenever you like. The device keeps the temperature constant.
5. After the session
In on-demand mode, the heater switches off as soon as you release the button. In session mode, the session ends automatically after about 3 minutes. Let the device cool briefly. Remove the mouthpiece, tap out the chamber and brush it clean with a small brush. You can soak the glass mouthpiece in isopropyl alcohol every 1–2 weeks.
The 5 most common beginner mistakes
- Grinding too fine – with pure convection, fine material clogs the airflow. Medium to coarse is ideal.
- Overpacking the chamber – the hot air must flow through the material. Fill loosely, to a maximum of three quarters full.
- Drawing too early in on-demand mode – give the heating element a 3–5 second head start, otherwise you will get hardly any vapour.
- Battery not charged – without an external charger, you can quickly end up with a flat battery. Always carry a spare.
- Confusing session and on-demand mode – press 3 times = session (keeps running). Hold = on-demand (stops when released).
Research context: A study in the Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences (Hazekamp et al., 2006) showed that vaporisation at controlled temperatures releases over 95 % of the desired active compounds while largely avoiding combustion by-products. Source: PubMed 16637053
