The Magic Flight Launch Box has rocked the portable vaporizer set with their size & simplicity. This easy-to-use and easy-to-conceal vaporizer is the right choice when you are on the move in an urban environment. You can easily slip it in your front pocket. When you buy this vaporizer, make sure you get the later model with the “click lock lid.”

Description

Magic Flights says

Our vaporizer concept is the result of more than a decade of careful product development, including extensive prototyping, testing, and review. Although our product may appear to be very simple, each Launch Box vaporizer represents the effort of many skilled craftsman, and encompasses more than a week of effort from start to finish.

As is so often the case, to make something appear truly simple actually requires a surprising amount of complexity and effort. Each Box, and even some of the accessories, are manually created using methods of our own design on tools we custom built.

Magic Flight Launch Box Pro Tips

Don’t use acrylic grinders!! They wear down very quickly and become dangerous, grinding off tiny, sometimes even microscopic, plastic particles into your weed! don’t use plastic.
Make sure your bud NEVER turns black or very dark brown. When a trench(a trench is what we refer to as the bowl in the MFLB) is fully vaped and done it should be a thorough light, golden brown only!!
Faster drawing means cooler temperatures and slower drawing means hotter temperatures.
If you DO accidentally combust, you must be extremely careful while cleaning it.
First use the brush to clean out all of the bud from the trench, then put just a drop or two of rubbing alcohol on the brush and scrub the screen!! Just be gentle. Keep adding a drop or two TO THE BRUSH and repeating the scrubbing. When it looks and smells clean, blow into the trench and into the mouthpiece. Leave the top open and let it air dry COMPLETELY (this is very important).
To clean the mouthpiece stem, just dip a cotton swab in alcohol and push through the stem until it’s clean, then rinse the stem and let dry.
It sometimes may be easy to forget, but be sure to hold your Solo upside down while removing the glass stem to reload. Doing this when right side up may cause some material to fall onto the heating element and create residue or clog the teeny holes the vapor needs to pass through when using.

Here is How to take a hit

Push the battery all the way in until it clicks.
Wait no more then 5 seconds after the battery is inserted and start pulling [sucking] slow and steady, but not too slow.
As the end of the hit approaches, remove the battery completely and INHALE to clear the unit of vapor.
Hold vapor in lungs for at least 10 seconds (remember, VAPOR is not SMOKE, so it’s ok to hold in).
Exhale.
Repeat!

The most important steps to not burning it are

not wait more then 5 seconds after the battery is inserted to start pulling
– AND –
completely remove the battery before you inhale and clear it.

From Magic Flight

If you plan to use the Box in its native mode (no attachments), one way to start is to look down the draw hole just after you put in the battery. You should see vapor appear in the hole within a few seconds. At this point begin your draw, using the temperature/taste of the vapor itself as a guide how fast to draw. Faster drawing means cooler temperatures and slower drawing means hotter temperatures. However, please be aware that under normal operating conditions, it is unlikely that you will be able to draw so slowly as to cause the taste to resemble that of smoking (this is by design). Whatever rate of draw you choose, continue until you can hold no more and then while holding your breath, shake the Box so as to tumble the loaded materials. You only need to shake or tap the Box enough to ensure that the load comes free and there is an even mixing of the loaded materials in the bottom of the groove (or “trench”). Breathe out while settling the materials in the trench again (a gentle side to side motion is usually enough for this), look into down the draw hole to check for vapor again, and begin your next slow draw. Repeat this cycle until the taste has changed significantly and/or the color of the load has changed significantly. When you are finished, remove the battery.

Again, if the load has noticeably changed color, then it is certain that vapor has been produced (and hopefully been inhaled). Otherwise, please check that the battery is charged and that the Box is heating sufficiently. You should have no trouble completely cooking a single load with a single battery.
