Storz & Bickel Mighty+ Review

The Mighty+ is the upgrade nobody knew the original Mighty needed — USB-C charging and a proper power boost that transforms the whole experience. The original was already the most-recommended portable vape of the last decade. Now it's even better, and honestly, it's not even close.

The Vapour is Insane

Full convection heating means hot air passes through your herb rather than baking it against a hot wall. The result? Even extraction every single time — no burnt edges, no green middles, just consistent, flavourful clouds from start to finish. Take your first pull at 170°C and you'll taste terpenes you didn't even know existed in that strain. It's genuinely eye-opening. For the full breakdown of temperatures and their effects, check our vaporiser temperature guide.

USB-C Changed the Game

The original Mighty's biggest flaw was micro-USB and hour-and-a-half charge times. The Mighty+ does USB-C and hits full charge in about 40 minutes. That's the difference between 'can I use this today?' and 'this is my daily driver, no question.' Makes it genuinely practical for everyday portable use.

The Dosing Capsule System

These little metal pods are a game changer for mess-free loading. Pre-pack a few, drop one in when you're ready, and you're gone. No spilling ground herb down yourself, no fumbling with grinders when you're out and about. The 40-pack is about £14 and honestly it's one of the best accessory investments you can make.

Session Walkthrough: How I Run a Bowl

I grind medium — fluffy, not powder — and fill the chamber or a dosing capsule loosely to the top. I set 170°C to start, wait for the display to settle, and take slow steady draws rather than hard pulls. The hybrid heating does the work if you let it. I step up gradually through the session and stir once halfway when I am chasing full extraction. A capsule plus the cooling unit means smooth, cool vapour from first draw to last, and emptying while warm keeps everything clean. Not sure where to start? Our how to choose a vaporizer guide explains why this forgiving style suits beginners and heavy hitters alike.

Cleaning and Maintenance Specifics

The Mighty+ stays brilliant if you stay on top of the cooling unit. I brush out the chamber after every session, pull the cooling unit apart every few bowls, and soak the plastic components in hot soapy water. Screens get a gentle scrub and prompt replacement when they darken — fresh screens transform the draw. I wipe the housing with a dry cloth and never soak anything electronic. Ten minutes every few sessions keeps the £272 flagship tasting like day one. Full routine in our how to clean a vape guide.

Mighty+ vs Crafty+: Which One Should You Buy

The closest rival is its pocketable sibling, the Crafty+ at £206. Vapour quality is remarkably close — same hybrid DNA, same clean German character. The Mighty+ wins on battery stamina, on-device screen, and group-session comfort. The Crafty+ wins on pocketability and price. I reach for the Mighty+ for all-day carry, long walks, and sharing; I reach for the Crafty+ when I want to travel light. If you only buy one Storz and Bickel portable and size is no issue, the Mighty+ remains the one to beat.

Mighty+ FAQ

Is the Mighty+ worth £272?
For regular users, yes. The vapour quality, build toughness, and fast USB-C charging make it a genuine daily driver. Occasional users who mainly micro-dose may be happier with something smaller and cheaper.

How many bowls per charge will I get?
Moderate users comfortably get through a full day out. Heavy back-to-back sessions drain it faster, but the fast charging means a short top-up over coffee gets you going again.

Are dosing capsules essential?
Not essential, but I consider them the best add-on. They keep loading clean, make swapping flavours easy, and keep the chamber cleaner for longer.
