Well... I'm 53 years old, I only use public transport when I blaze it and I only do it in public, when I'm a blade of grass in a huge meadow. I did my share of really stupid, unnecessarily risky dumbassery, trust me. Taking two, three practically odorless tokes from something that looks like an ecig, at a place where the stank of smoldering cigarette filters would cover up if I smoked opium laced with ammonium chloride, among dozen others either producing smelly smoke or even more smelly vape... that's a pretty low risk in my book. I appreciate the concern though...
So I just turned my grasshopper on and off like 3 times after pulling some air and there was no vapor production at all.
The problem? There was no weed in it. I'm not very smart.
Hope you get it fixed soonSo I just turned my grasshopper on and off like 3 times after pulling some air and there was no vapor production at all.

Hahaha I've done this!! I'm so nervous about this thing not working that I started stressing before even looking in the chamber!! Damn near had a warranty claim done only to realize my freshly ground herb waiting patiently to be vaped on the table...Yeesh I rely on this thing so much as it works unbelievably when proper that I start trippin if anything weird happens. Good thing the extraction is so good I feel much better with one proper pull...So I just turned my grasshopper on and off like 3 times after pulling some air and there was no vapor production at all.

The brush I got with my CFX is the perfect size for the Grasshopper: http://bndlsvapes.com/oven-cleaning-brush.html
I rarely brush it out anymore, I did brush it a lot at first. Partly because I don't care as much but I've also found that once the metal was "seasoned" my cannabis doesn't stick nearly as much. Occasionally, maybe once a week I will brush the oven.
I've developed a "not proper hopper" syndrome. All the more reason to vape..its a vicious/lovely cycle
Almost any brush will work, I would avoid any metal wire bristles. I just like the CFX brush because it's almost the perfect size, I have another very similar brush from somewhere and it's nearly identical but the handle isn't as nice.Would those "dental brushes" that you buy in packs of 10 or 20 work as well as this brush in the above post? That one seems more "stiff" - or dare I say, abrasive?
I would recommend to anyone that vapes that they get a set of bottle brushes in various sizes. This set is a whopping $6 and has plastic protective tips on the end.My hopper will be arriving today, and as many of you, I've been getting ready for it like an expectant father...
I look forward to being a valid contributor of do's and don'ts for Hopper use... In the meanwhile....

Actually a good idea... Do's and Don'ts for Hopper Use and Maintenance.
Sure, it has lifetime warranty, but I'm sure there are things that GHL (if they were listening) would go, "Uh, yeah, don't do that"....
Seriously though, part of me wants GH to see our Resource thread, maybe even help out by honestly commenting on these fixes if necessary; be a part of the community of users.
.... Nah, that's crazy!

Yeah, I thought about it, but it seems like such a thing would be a pain when carrying out and about@Kalessin could you place an 8mm screen on top of the herb before the mouthpiece goes on?
You must be grinding really fine, so hopefully you'll have enough space to easily fit something in?
you could always grind less fineYeah, I thought about it, but it seems like such a thing would be a pain when carrying out and about
I clean my gh with cotton fabric (a piece of an old t-shirt) after empting the chamber... and it works great my chamber looks like new... I push the fabric in the chamber rotate it a few times... also I am using a toothpick to empty my bowl... in my opinion it is better touse a wooden toothpick somyou do not scratch the chamber with a metall too,...Have you used compressed air to clean out the mouthpiece and/or oven?
I've been looking for the best brush to clean both. I tried the ff brush, but it's too short. I've been using the Crafty brush, but I'd really prefer one with fewer bristles (a narrower diameter). Figure I'll find the right thing in an art supply store. But any suggestions are much appreciated!
I have tried other grinds, but never really liked them. With a more coarse grind it always seemed like I had to empty it out into my hand and crumble it part way through to get it extracted completely anyway, but mainly my thing about it is it's difficult for me to measure out proper doses without it being a consistent fine grindSo I don't have mine yet, but all my other convection vapes (FireFlys, Milaana, poor man's Volcano, EQ) seem to do just fine with hand tearing, a coarse grind, or even just jamming in a little bud. I thought fine grind was mostly for convection? Why fine grind and have you tried other methods?
I can lay the finer screen over the stock screen, the threads hold it in place. But it is thick enough it stops the mouthpiece from turning all the way closed and leaves a gap I can't deal with being there lolCan you put the finer screens in without taking the stock screens out?
Thanks for the suggestion. I never thought of using fabric. I'm seeing debris catch on the mouthpiece screen, so that's the main reason I was looking for a small brush. Using q-tips for the walls of the oven makes sense too. Time to get me some of those precision q-tips!I clean my gh with cotton fabric (a piece of an old t-shirt) after empting the chamber... and it works great my chamber looks like new...

That is really shittyHaven't been here in a few weeks. Another dead Hopper to report, body crapped out (goes to blue lights immediately after turned on & no heat).
Warranty request #14 for me. How's everyone else's working?
