I was disappointed when combustion happened. But I took a 30 second powerful rip through water with a brand new battery. I think I mentioned I haven’t had that issue at 4.75. The GH got super hot, I could hold it, but my lips could not have handled that big of a rip.
A small complaint is that if you fill up the chamber fully the herb does not get evenly brown like my Mighty does. The heat up time on my GH is unbelievable compared to my Mighty.
I’m still loving it. I have no idea how to tell if it really is the newest version. We shall see how reliable it is.
I really need new batteries for my Mighty, but won’t send it in until I know my GH is reliable. I hope to hear more stories of people getting old units back and more new one shipped.
Hi @Jayd0g420, welcome here (I'm late to the welcoming party, still worth doing )
I agree with some others, if I know that combustion can happen on max, I'm happy to just run it on 4.5 or 4.75 and get consistent awesome results My hopper does a great job on 5, but definitely isn't super close to combustion, so I'm happy to run it on 5 all the time. If I got one with new internals that needed 4 for the same result, that's fine too
Yeah, regarding sending back your Mighty, if I were you I'd at least wait 'til it looks like Hopper Labs have mostly cleared their backlog, so you know you can get it fixed quickly if there is an issue. I'm waiting for this myself, just for a small issue I have.
I find that filling the hopper pretty full it does still get nicely evenly brown, as long as I don't tamp it down at all.
I'm very happy you're having a great time with the Hopper. May it live long and happy!
As for the green lights, who knows what weird and wonderful testing things they throw in @slcdbco's Hopper. We should all be so lucky

He mentioned further up that it's blue for him, as they have been up 'til now.
