Crafty Plus V2 Vaporizer

Crafty Plus Vaporizer UK – Storz & Bickel Portable Vape

The Crafty Plus Vaporizer UK brings Storz & Bickel's globally recognised hybrid heating technology into a highly compact, pocket-friendly portable design. Built in Germany and developed as the updated V2 version of the original Crafty, it flawlessly combines a durable PEEK body, a ceramic-coated filling chamber, an integrated cooling unit, and incredibly simple one-button operation.

The updated Crafty Plus introduces modern USB-C charging, significantly improved charging times, and a highly practical battery capacity optimized for everyday use. With three intuitive temperature presets directly on the device and detailed digital adjustment available through the official Storz & Bickel Web App, you can keep operation beautifully simple or meticulously fine-tune your sessions when you want absolute control.

Despite its small dimensions, the Crafty Plus is expertly designed to deliver the dense, highly flavourful vapour strictly associated with premium Storz & Bickel devices. It is an exceptionally strong choice for users who demand premium German engineering and desktop-level vapour without carrying a much larger portable such as the Mighty+.

New Crafty Plus Design Improvements

So what are these changes? Here are some of the tweaks worth mentioning:

New Crafty Plus Design Improvements (V2)

The newer USB-C Crafty Plus retains the familiar, highly ergonomic compact shape of the original while introducing several massively useful hardware improvements aimed squarely at everyday convenience:

• USB-C Charging: Replaces the older micro-USB standard for faster, universal charging.

• Faster Charging Times: Reduces the overall time spent tethered to a wall outlet by up to 25 minutes.

• Ceramic-Coated Filling Chamber: Replaces the older aluminium chamber for improved durability and flavour preservation.

The rugged PEEK housing heavily remains an important part of the core design, actively helping the Crafty Plus easily cope with the daily demands of regular portable use while keeping the overall weight to a highly portable 136 g.

Durable PEEK Construction

The Crafty Plus uses a high-performance, medical-grade PEEK plastic housing specifically designed to withstand the intense heat and physical demands of repeated daily use.

PEEK is an advanced engineering-grade material highly known for extreme high-temperature stability and immense mechanical strength. For a portable vaporizer, this gives the Crafty+ a reassuringly solid, drop-resistant exterior while helping keep the device remarkably lightweight.

The compact construction cleverly protects the swivel mouthpiece when it is folded down flat, making the Crafty+ incredibly easy to safely carry in a tight pocket or small bag without snagging.

Hybrid Heating & Ceramic-Coated Chamber

Storz & Bickel is legendary for its hybrid heating approach, and the Crafty+ proudly continues that proven design philosophy. The highly efficient system combines both convection (hot air passing through the herb) and conduction (heated chamber walls) to warm the botanical material evenly and consistently throughout the entire session.

The updated Crafty+ features a premium ceramic-coated filling chamber with an approximate capacity of 0.25 g (or 1.4 cm³). This upgraded ceramic coating provides a highly durable, easy-to-clean surface that perfectly complements the hybrid heating system to preserve delicate terpene flavours.

The result is designed to actively provide perfectly even extraction and massive, dense vapour clouds while keeping the device compact enough for stealthy everyday carry.

 

Three Temperature Presets

The Crafty+ brilliantly keeps initial temperature selection completely foolproof with three tactile preset levels that can be selected directly from the main physical button.

The standard factory temperature structure includes:

• Base Temperature (180°C): Reached with a single press for smooth, flavourful draws.

• Boost Mode: Activated with a rapid double press to increase the temperature by 15°C for denser clouds.

• Superboost Mode: Activated with a rapid triple press, instantly pushing the device to its absolute maximum preset level (210°C) for full, heavy extraction.

This intuitive system gives beginners a highly easy way to start successfully using the Crafty+ without frustratingly learning a complicated digital control system.

Storz & Bickel Web App

For users who heavily demand advanced temperature adjustment, the Crafty Plus easily connects via Bluetooth to the official Storz & Bickel Web App.

The digital Web App provides precise, degree-by-degree temperature adjustment across the device's entire supported range (40°C–210°C) and can be highly used to deeply personalise the Crafty+'s LED brightness, vibration alerts, and auto-shutoff timers.

Note for iOS Users: Because native vaporizer apps were removed from the Apple App Store, users should exclusively use the official browser-based Web App via a compatible Bluetooth browser (like Bluefy) for seamless control. This brilliantly gives the Crafty+ a perfect balance: foolproof one-button control directly on the device, and deep digital control when required via your smartphone.

 

Integrated Cooling Unit

A major factor in Storz & Bickel's success is the ingeniously engineered integrated Cooling Unit.

The Crafty Plus features a complex internal maze located directly inside the mouthpiece cap, specifically designed to actively extend the vapour path and heavily reduce the vapour temperature before it ever reaches your lips.

This is particularly highly useful because the Crafty+ can effortlessly produce incredibly substantial, thick vapour from its small filling chamber that would otherwise be harsh on the throat. The cooling unit creates a smooth, highly comfortable hit while successfully keeping the overall device relatively short and pocket-friendly.

USB-C Charging & Battery Performance

One of the most significantly requested changes to the updated Crafty+ is the move to universal USB-C charging.

Charging from empty takes approximately 1.5 hours, with the highly efficient newer system actively reducing the total time required compared directly with the original micro-USB Crafty.

The built-in rechargeable battery reliably offers approximately 3–4 full filling chamber loads per full charge, depending heavily on your selected temperature, outdoor weather, and total session length.

Pass-Through Support: The Crafty Plus can operate while connected directly to a wall charger provided it has at least a 20% base charge available. (Note: Active battery charging safely pauses while the internal heater is physically running to protect battery health).

 

 

Battery Performance

The updated Crafty Plus offers approximately 3–4 filling chamber loads per full charge, depending on temperature, usage and session length.

Its battery is internal, so unlike a Tinymight 2 or Arizer Air MAX, you cannot simply swap in another cell during the day.

However, the improved charging system makes it easier to top up between sessions.

Getting the Best Vapour Quality

The Crafty Plus performs particularly well when you give the hybrid heater time to work properly and avoid excessive airflow.

Start with a moderate temperature when flavour is your priority.

As you become familiar with the device, you can move to higher settings for denser vapour and more aggressive extraction.

The Boost and Superboost functions are useful when you want to increase temperature during a session without navigating the Web App.

For people who enjoy precise temperature control, using the Web App is the best way to fine-tune the Crafty Plus.

Cleaning the Crafty Plus

Highly routine cleaning strictly helps heavily preserve the Crafty Plus's open airflow, pure flavour, and essential cooling performance. The top cooling unit is the primary component that requires highly regular attention.

1. Make absolutely sure the Crafty Plus has completely cooled down.
2. Unlock, remove, and fully disassemble the plastic cooling unit.
3. Remove the blue silicone seal rings using the included picking tool.
4. Soak the hard plastic cooling unit components (excluding the cap lock with the logo) in high-percentage isopropyl alcohol for up to 30 minutes.
5. Rinse all parts thoroughly with warm water.
6. Allow all components to air dry completely.
7. Gently brush any loose, spent material directly from the main ceramic filling chamber.
8. Reassemble only when every single part is 100% completely dry.

Warning: Absolutely never submerge or soak the main electronic body of the Crafty Plus in any liquid.

Crafty Plus Dosing Capsules

Storz & Bickel Dosing Capsules are undeniably one of the most incredibly convenient accessories available for the Crafty Plus.

Instead of messily loading loose botanical material directly into the main filling chamber while outdoors, you can discreetly prepare multiple capsules safely in advance at home. This heavily makes travelling and rapid session preparation significantly easier while actively reducing the amount of direct, sticky residue building up inside the main ceramic chamber.

For users who prepare in bulk, the Storz & Bickel Dosing Capsule Set (40-Pack) is a highly practical choice, while the Capsule Caddy Holder provides a waterproof, smell-proof keychain for carrying them.

Protecting Your Crafty Plus

The Crafty Plus is rugged enough for everyday use, but a protective case can still help minimise scratches, knocks and general wear.

The Crafty Plus Case is designed specifically for the device and provides a more secure way to carry it.

For users who regularly carry the Crafty Plus in a pocket, backpack or travel bag, a dedicated case is a simple upgrade worth considering.

How to Know If the Crafty Plus Is Right for You

Few things feel better than finding the vape that perfectly fits your needs. The Crafty Plus might be the one for you if:

1. You want a vape that’s durable:

Not only is this portable, it is durable too. As mentioned above, the rugged plastic shell of the Crafty Plus makes it highly resistant to drops and other forms of wear and tear. Flipping down the mouthpiece adds an extra sense of security.

In addition to the trademark Storz & Bickel dual heating system, the Crafty Plus also comes with a special cooling feature, so every hit is easy on the lungs and tastes damn good.

3. You need a long-lasting battery:

With this major update, the Crafty Plus offers over 30-45 minutes of continuous run time on a full charge. So you don't have to worry about running out of juice in the middle of the day, and as we said before you can still use it while it's charging if needs must.

4. You want Peaceful Sesh:

The new Crafty Plus 2024 remains very user-friendly and is definitely simple to use and ideal for sharing. It functions with One-button operation,

What Do Storz and Bickel say about this update?

In a nutshell, Storz and Bickel say 'Don't sacrifice performance for portability - get both with the CRAFTY Plus'. This sums up exactly what they were aiming to achieve with the new Crafty Plus 2024. The old version had a shorter battery autonomy and was less adaptable for being out and about as it lacked the USB-C Charging.

Crafty Plus Vaporizer UK – Final Verdict

The Crafty Plus Vaporizer UK undoubtedly remains one of the absolute most appealing, highly capable compact options in the entire Storz & Bickel lineup.

The updated V2 model brilliantly keeps the high-performance qualities that heavily made the original Crafty globally popular—unmatched hybrid heating, ultra-compact construction, integrated top cooling, and foolproof simple operation—while successfully adding the massive everyday convenience of modern USB-C charging and a durable ceramic-coated filling chamber.

Its 0.25 g capacity, tactile one-button controls, and deep Bluetooth Storz & Bickel Web App integration heavily make it incredibly easy to pick up and flawlessly use, while the rugged medical-grade PEEK housing is perfectly suited to surviving regular, heavy portable use. The Crafty Plus is undeniably the absolute perfect middle ground for users who desperately want genuine, desktop-level Storz & Bickel performance completely without carrying the significantly larger, heavier footprint of the Mighty+.
