There are easier ways of scamming people, just look at the Evolution Dark net market, the admins just closed it down and made off with tons of other's bitcoin.

But yes the update can't come soon enough!!

Anyone who thinks this is still a scam is reaching....they could have took off with the $300k a long-time ago.

Yeah pretty much, this never looked like a scam to me though, people can be a tad paranoid with Indiegogo type sites though.

Lol, why scam people. Most people you end up scamming barely have enough worth stealing.

Many serious for-profit hackers are now turning towards bitcoin mining tactics to generate their own income. Think of it - millions of botnet computers, crunching away generating coins for you.


But enough OT. Are there any more GH's "In the wild" yet? I'd love to read some other opinions on it.

What are the chances the SS will ship before the TI, or were all versions scheduled to ship at the same time?
 
Delta3DStudios,
Brah I know, of course I know this is a real thing, you can't fake something this well.

Here's to an awesome vape, and the best one yet!

Ok, google evolution exit scam, it comes down to this, why spend so much on generating bitcoin when you can wait for someone else to invest and get returns from it and then just take what they got?

That's exactly what those fucking admin's did,
hopefully the other ones like Alphabay, Nucleus, and Agora, in addition to many others have stronger management teams that wouldn't even think of doing such a thing.

And they won't, Evolution was a carding forum originally (made for sharing people's stolen CC info & fullz), then converted to a market, which allowed them to drain all the funds in people's escrow's.

Hey there,
Just one thing about the grasshopper I can't understand is the air path : the air comes from the outside goes through the heater element and then through the weed ( that's why it is described as almost pure convection). But where is located the battery in this path ? Will the air pass just next to it ? There is no glass in it, isn't it ? So does the air goes only through metal parts ? I think there is some plastic parts in the push button. So my question is : does anyone know the exact air path in this device ?
Thanks :-)

There is plastic (albeit thermosafe, biomedical w/e) in all them S&B Crafty's, Mighty's, Volcanoes; Arizer Air/Solo etc.

AFAIK this does not have that, it's all metal, something they were very proud of, as that material choice contributes to a lifetime of use.

From what I understand, the air enters through the holes where the LED light shines through. The battery is stored in the back of the vape, behind the airpath. The airpath is rather short - only about 1/4rd of the overall length of the pen.

Thanks for your really quick replies :-) But if the air goes through the holes where the led is, does that mean that the heat shell is located just under the holes ? That would be a really short air path and that would be really great for we can know exactly what the air went through :)

Agreed, I'm still a bit confused myself how so much heat can be generated in such a short vapor path

The website says it's 95% metal...I also wondered about the other 5%. Thats a really great ratio, but I wonder nonetheless... @BuzzDanklin or anyone who knows the answer- Is the airpath completely isolated from electronics and plastic/silicone? What materials are in the airpath (is it all Stainless Steel/Titanium)?

On the indiegogo page, they explain they were able to create a really compact heater thanks to "Direct Metal Laser Sintering". The text reads : " The heater is one of the most innovative elements of Grasshopper. Using Direct Metal Laser Sintering, (a type of metal 3D printing), we've created an extremely compact heat exchanger with very little flow resistance." " The Shell's spiral design squeezes a 36 millimeter-long heating pathway into only 4 millimeters of space".

But since the pathway is so short, what intrigues me is how the air is not too hot ! In every videos I could watch, they were all coughing really hard. But that's often the case with other vapes too, especially when people want to show that they can pull big clouds out of it.

Well, really eager to read reviews of this beauty when it comes out, it looks definitely too perfect :p

It has a short airpath, but it is longer and compacted into a spiral, to bring air swirling through the herb.

Some have been saying they should also have put a spiral airpath in the mouthpiece to cool the vapor, but seems their new screen won't offer that.

Instead low temps and small hits are best way to manage heat with this guy it seems. Unless you're home with water or a tamer

Just a heads up, this is the old design. Now it has an albeit still short, but longer air path than this.

To me the Grasshopper is kind of like the DeLorean of vaporizers:
  • Innovative Stainless Steel Design
  • Cutting edge technology under the hood
  • Enthusiastic early adopter group
  • Bumpy road to development and production
Let's hope they have a brighter destiny ahead of them...:evil:

I reckon its gonna be too hot on top temperature without a bubbler, I'll be back home by the time I want a cbd hit so I'm fine with that.

@BuzzDanklin can you comment on the temperature control of the unit? How much of a difference of a high have you noticed between the temps and what's your preferred ?

Thanks for being dank

Hey so I haven't vaped b4 but wanna start (usually smoke with friends but not on my own bc of needing to be real careful about smelling) and am really thinking about placing an order for the GH, my issue is when I buy things I like to buy the better versions of whatever Im looking into (if I can afford it) and so Im thinking about getting the TI instead of SS... so I guess I'm mainly posting so someone can tell me I'm ridiculous and to just save the money and go with the SS lol. Or do you guys think the TI will be worth the $ difference?

As history has shown, every new vape will have issues/defects. I highly suggest you buy a vaporizer which has been tried and tested, and known to work reliably. The GH is a fun second or third vape. But not as a first vape - especially at this stage of development.

Of course it's a scam. It will only take about $80 to cover the cost of production, development, and distribution. They will probably sell it for more! I've seen these scams before. Welcome to Obama's America.
