Hybrid Heating — Why It's the Best
The Mighty+ combines both conduction and convection:
- Conduction: Chamber walls heat the material directly — vapor from the very first draw.
- Convection: Hot air flows through the material — pure flavor and even extraction.
- The result: thick, flavorful vapor with consistent performance from start to finish.
