    It's awesome it feels really well made and fits the hopper snugly. It protects the hopper from scratches and accidental activation when its in your pocket. Also helps control odor. Get one you won't regret it What can I say I'm one of the lucky ones hehe. Mine must have been personally...

    I’m not sure just going by the year I got both units. Backer version was from 2016 during the original indiegogo campaign so you know I’m an OG lol

    Hopper gang for life. Stainless steel backer edition on left still going strong. 2019 Ti on the right. The improvements between the two versions are amazing. Was really sad to hear about the fire. Glad everyone is ok and I hope you guys can continue making amazing vapes. Just wanted to chime in...

    I use a mix of glass and straight hits. Temp setting 4 for straight hits and 5 with glass, usually around 3-4 hits per sesh. If I really try I can kill a fully packed load in one hit but my lungs just can't take it.:ko: I'd say I get abut 2 1/2 loads per batt with a half full bowl. I'm more of a...

    Hey everyone just popping in for a quick long term reliability update. I've had my stainless steel grasshopper no. 000044 for exactly six months to the day and it's been chugging along nicely without a problem. Haven't had to send it in once (knock on wood). I'm a fairly moderate user so my...

    To folks with color Ti models, how durable is the finish? I'm considering getting my stainless hopper a companion once the backlog is cleared.

    Regarding the tailcap warming issue, I've noticed that the part that seems to get the warmest is the steel band that holds the clip to the temperature control/power button: What do the FC engineering folks make of this?

    :o Have you gotten a hold of a hopper rep yet? I'm still waiting to hear from them about my ss/ti mix up. Sent an email five days ago, still no response. Speaking of cases this is what I've been using Amazon link here

    Honestly I'm loving the SS version. Other than the weight savings I doubt there will be too much of a Noticeable difference between the two(the SS version isn't all that heavy to begin with). I'll probably just keep this one and ask for a refund of the difference

    Still no word from Trevor or anyone else from hopper labs RE my order mix up. Upgraded to titanium(Paid difference via PayPal, invoice changed to Ti on hopper website) and was sent a stainless model. Luckily I seem to have gotten a good unit so at least I've got something to use. I guess...

    Initial impressions of the stainless model. First off flavor is amazing. On par with the thermovape cera, my benchmark for flavor in a portable vape. Second off the mouthpiece does get hot. I'm a regular coffee drinker so I think my lips have a tolerance for heat but this thing gets HOT. It's...

    Received my hopper today. Haven't gotten a chance to use it yet but it turns on fine. Only problem is I upgraded to the titanium version via email, PayPal invoice for the difference and everything but I was sent the stainless model. Has a serial number beginning with gs and it sticks to a...

    The Grasshopper Shipping Poll

    So based on other members experiences it looks like once your order is marked as shipped it's just suddenly arrives one day unannounced. This is a real pain in the butt for me since I use a p.o. box that is quite a drive away. A tracking no would have saved me a lot of wasted trips... Maybe I'll...
