Discontinued The Grasshopper

Oh just stop already! :lol: But after having tried the glass symphony and flowerpot, I do now realize there is a massive difference in the term convection. The GH chamber walls make a massive difference vs just hot air moving over the material and a screen.

what do you exactly mean... sorry I do not understand... do not have my flowerpot yet... which do you like better and why?

ou have any recommendations on glass I can find online potentially?

I really dig this stevenlmz79 FC-188 knockoff. Go to DHGate and put FC-188 in the search field and you will find it.

Thanks Mods, sorry, I thought it was just the pictures and the link would be ok, my apologies.

Didn't really mean anything other than what @MoltenTiger expanded on already with the insulated chamber. This causes more radiant heat and allows for a faster extraction. However, for some purists, it may not be the convection that they are looking for (ie, vriptech, herborizer, minivap etc).

It's not a matter of liking one better than the other, as they are completely different animals. However, I do appreciate the variety of both heating technologies.

I am still looking for the pipe shaped animal that takes +2 gr of grinded bud and allows you to sit and puff on a bowl for hours while lounging in the sofa

I been imaging that the pipe head in like a screw inside a screw that passes fresh material in front of the heater at every turn

It would look exactly the opposite of a grasshopper and look like this

If you want something stealthy then we can make the vape look like the old guy while you dress up as a huge pipe!

Hiding in plain sight :wave:

I also seen this one here from grav lab that costs around 12 bucks

Put the problem for me is it makes the hopper too long, think I rather have something that curves upwards like sherlock pipe
Hopefully so I can operate the vaporizer one-handed

I was thinking that since it's glass, maybe it could be gently and carefully torched to provide vapor.

I seem to recall a similar type of device that promotes the ability to either combust or vaporize.

:shrug:
Ahaha alright

I see every oblong object on this thread as an idea of a "mouth piece extension" :p

Who are thou that has both the hopper and thy firewood three point zero?

Is thy mouth parched after the firewood's high heat setting?
Like you would be by the hands of the hopper?
Sir .. Madam?

I been also wondering about buying the firewood 3 mouth piece for the hopper (one day the firewood itself) and also a good old tips from couple pages back was for these things here
Got a nice gift from @vapen00b. A ThermoVape Pure-Flow Moisture Conditioner.

tv-009-pur-cond-thermovape-pure-flow-moisture-conditioner-1.442_large.jpg



Works pretty good as a driptip on the PFE. Not a perfect seal but pretty good. Cooling and moisturizing of vape is so good, couldn't believe that's is caused just by this tiny thing - recommandation!
At AustralianVaporizers it's actually discounted down to 5$

EDIT: BTW yesterday failed my RMAed hopper which I like so much more than my 1st one. Seems to be a kind of sensor damage. It doesn't go to blue anymore. All the time it's heating up more and more. Had a terrible experience of combustion with my hopper....fuckit!

I am always up for a wild hunt for the next big mouth piece idea

@Hjalmark Its pretty hard to find in the US. I was just looking for it and it costs around 39 dollars to ship here from Aus. Looks like it would be ideal to take the heat.
Yeah have the same problem when I find cool stuff in USA and wanna ship it to Sweden :/

Talking about "cool stuff" but I used to own this as a teen and would love to try it with the hopper

Though now a days the plastic in it makes me cringe but probably millions times healthier with vape

That looks like a lung/gravity bong/Volcano bag. It looks pretty interesting as you would be able to contain the vapor inside ala Volcano bag.

14 bucks with shipping, the one I had worked pretty good, though we used the 2 liter soda bottle and a 10 liter bucket of water (and sometimes ice cubes) when inside, that lung was just for outside :D

Damn just remember about when I was a teen me and my friend group would buy bunch of buckets with lids and then hide them around different parks in the city with water in them

Some of those buckets even became known local stoner hangouts until police found one of the places and send whole squids with dogs into that park but kept finding more and more makeshift pipes and bongs

Ended up a picture in the papers with dozen huge black garbage bags of homemade bongs and buckets with some over worked police posing for photo

That park was also huge and couple different neighborhoods connected with that in the middle

Back in the day when you got high in the park with +10 people :)

Forgive me for wandering off the path with @Hjalmark, I may even feel a new thread coming on...
My version of your teen hot spot is just slightly less romantic.
Across the street from my high school we had one of the first "shopping malls" in the U.S. (shout out to Long Island!) and under it ran a tunnel from end to end, for delivery and service trucks. It also had those ominous yellow/black fallout shelter symbols at the entries.
Just down the ramp and around the bend, up on a cement ledge, was a solitary corn cob pipe, used by dozens of teens throughout the day...
Even if we had no stash, we could go take a couple of pulls on that thing confident, of course, that we were also safe from nuclear annihilation...

Hi all.
"Suck of life" lost it's magic on my ss hopper.
Last Thursday the ss hopper didn't respond to the "suck of life" so i gave up and use my backup vapcap M at work then the ti hopper at home cos nothing beats the stealthy and quick of the hopper.

Saturday came I decided to clean the ss hopper to send it over..............then I thought why not take the screen out to see what gives my hopper bluelight with no heat so the screen got lifted out of the chamber with a pair of tweezer as you can see what's under the first screen after 1 year of use from it's first Rma

Sorry about the quality of the pic, it's hard for a stoner like me to take good picture while high:)

Anyway I used wooden toothpick to clean it out , no alcohol just the toothpick. I forgot to take pic afterward.........................it works beautifully after that and hasn't missed a beat for the last 3 days, very happy here:)

Next weekend I am heading across country to meet a good friend of mine and a fellow stoner

He has been talking about getting a vaporizer for long but only wants the grasshopper
Last year he was here for a visit but a week before that my hopper had failed and was in the mail to hopper labs

This time it died two weeks ago and I am hoping I get it back before next week's Friday so I can take it with me and let him finally try a hopper

When I was waiting for pre-orders then we were living together at a school we went to but then the school year finished before I ever got the hopper

Is this going to be the time my good friend gets to try the hopper?

Find out next week! :D

Haha well it's good he knows well what he may be getting himself into if he goes for a Hopper :)

Fingers crossed you get yours back in time to show him.

I'm surprised some people think "I should get a vaporizer" for years without doing so. I accidentally combusted with a vapcap recently, and it was horrible, I had forgotten how unpleasant combustion is. If he smokes regularly, you should loan him a vaporizer for a few weeks, if you can, I imagine that would convince him to get a move on and finally take the plunge ;)

Have a least 4 people now that are like "got to get a vape" and then look up price tags and rather buy 15-20 gr of weed then use the money to safe hundreds of grams over the next years

Same thing happened with mine of over a year. I also, posted that I did the exact same thing but I did use ISO. It's been around 2 months since and it's still going. I've had it for week over a year now almost going on two years with no RMA. I used it last night with some Super Glue and went to bed :zzz:
 

Treebeard

So it goes.
Hey party people

My hopper is probably 5 months old and is used regularly. Less so recently. worked great last night but went to use it this afternoon and she wasnt operating. I click the top and the lights blink red very quickly then the light turns blue and stays blue, but does not seem to really heat at all and does not produce a hit. Vape is still clicking throughout all this.

I reckon it will have to be sent in, but I thought maybe you fine people have encountered this and its something I can tinker with or order a part.


Thanks in advance homies
