The Tinymight 2 wins clearly, 8.7 to 7.7, and leads in every category we score. The Angus Enhanced still earns a look at $159, less than half the Tinymight's $349 US list price. Buy the Angus for big halogen flavor on a budget, and the Tinymight 2 for on-demand hits and a better build. Both are small-maker portables built for big clouds on swappable 18650 cells, which is why they end up on the same shortlist.
Key differences
- Heater: the Angus pulls air across a 100 W halogen bulb and ruby terp pearls. The Tinymight 2 uses a pure convection heater.
- Heat-up: listed at about 55 seconds for the Angus and about 5 seconds for the Tinymight 2.
- Modes: the Angus runs five-minute session cycles. The Tinymight 2 does on-demand hits and sessions.
- Airflow: the Angus has an adjustable airflow dial. The Tinymight 2 has none.
- Batteries: two 18650 cells in the Angus, one in the Tinymight 2, all swappable.
- Warranty: 1 year on the Angus, 3 years on the Tinymight 2 once you register it.
Is the Angus Enhanced worth it? Our review verdict
Yes, if you want ball vape flavor in a portable and don't mind some fiddling. Halogen convection gave us clean, terpene-forward vapor from the first draw. The ruby balls hold heat, so extraction stays even from start to finish. Thick clouds at the middle presets were typical, not a best-case pull.
The weak spots are build and handling. More than once, the oven lid twisted off with the glass stem and spilled our cannabis, and the battery doors can loosen too. There's no display or app, and it takes five rapid clicks just to switch on. Our ball vape explainer covers how this style of heater works.
Vapor and flavor
The Tinymight 2 scored 9.6 on vapor quality against 8.5 for the Angus. It's the hardest-hitting convection portable we've tested. At setting 6 in session mode, dense clouds rolled out for 8 to 10 draws before a stir.
The Angus answers with control and extras, since its airflow dial opens to near-zero draw resistance or closes down to a tight sip. A side bubbler and a water pipe adapter come in the box, while Tinymight sells those separately.
Loads differ too. The Angus oven takes about 0.2 g for a full session, while the Tinymight's sliding cooling unit let us run anything from a 0.05 g microdose to a 0.15 g load, which 2 or 3 long on-demand draws finished.
Speed and session style
Heating style is the biggest practical gap. The Tinymight 2 heats only while you hold the button, so your cannabis doesn't cook between hits. Session mode is there when you want a longer sit.
The Angus is a sit-down vape, and each heat cycle runs five minutes, so it suits a full bowl more than a single hit. Its five presets run from 180°C to 220°C in even steps, and holding the button pushes the top preset to 230°C until you let go.
Neither is a pick-up-and-go vape, and the Tinymight 2 relies on button sequences and a numbered dial without labeled temperatures, so read the manual. It still scored 7.5 for ease of use against 6.8 for the Angus.
Matching the settings
The Angus presets line up exactly with Tinymight dial levels 5 to 9, so a setting you like on one carries straight over. On stock settings, only the Tinymight 2 goes below 180°C for flavor-first low-temp sips.
| Temperature | Angus Enhanced | Tinymight 2 dial |
|---|---|---|
| 140°C | None | 1 |
| 160°C | None | 3 |
| 180°C | Preset 1 | 5 |
| 190°C | Preset 2 | 6 |
| 200°C | Preset 3 | 7 |
| 210°C | Preset 4 | 8 |
| 220°C | Preset 5 | 9 |
| 230°C | Preset 5 with boost | 10 in session mode |
| 250°C | None | 10, Beast Mode on demand |
Size, build and batteries
The Tinymight 2 weighs 186 g without its stem, in walnut and metal with no creak or flex. The Angus is a 268 g polymer block, and it scored 7.5 on build against 8.8.
Both run on swappable 18650 cells, which suits heavy users. The Angus manual calls for a matched pair of Molicel P28A cells, and YLLVAPE's kit leaves them out. The Tinymight 2 ships with one Molicel cell in the box. On a charge, the Angus's two cells ran about eight sessions and the Tinymight's single cell about five. USB-C refills the Angus in about 90 minutes, and Tinymight's guide quotes about 90% in the same time. Carry charged spares and battery life stops mattering on either. Our vaporizer battery guide explains how to choose safe cells.
What's in the box
YLLVAPE packs the Angus with three glass stems, a side bubbler, a water pipe adapter, a loading funnel, screens, O-rings and a hard carry case, but no batteries. The walnut Tinymight 2 comes with one 55 mm glass tube, a titanium stem, a ball cooling unit, a Molicel 18650, a USB-C cable, a pouch and spare O-rings and screens.
The Angus kit is the more complete one. The Tinymight 2 is the one you can use straight out of the box, since the Angus needs two 18650 cells you buy separately.
