It’s more like they’re indifferent to us. Sadly I’ve learned to accept it and won’t pester them for updates on my RMA Ti (first time in warranty since September). I know it’ll take lots of time, and patience, and I just want a working Hopper again - to serve as a backup or occasional alternative. I won’t put too much stock in it or HL’s operational and customer service. Again, they’re overwhelmed in nearly every conceivable way...
I assume the body (and its entirety) and it's just my own assumption. I did not ask for clarification but perhaps I can (we'll see). It could imply and include the back-end but I'm not certain.
Fingers and toes crossed for you, me and all of us. I think it's a body issue too given the degraded performance but then it wouldn't turn on at all, which was the final straw. I sent it in for RMA right after that. Had I more time - or patience - I might have done some troubleshooting with the backend threads but that never really seemed likely at fault though the backend didn't screw on free-style, i.e. without much effort like some on here profess, but I always had it on tight - and the chamber and front-end were meticulously kept and clean (brushing and ISO).
Did they? No way! It's indeed lame. I didn't hear about any BF deals by them and I get their emails.
. They ran out of them, the first generation which a buddy of mine has and in which he loaned me since he has 2 Hoppers and sleeves, and I finally got mine - 2nd generation - almost a year and a half after getting my Hopper, which was longer than the initial pre-order from purchase to delivery. How's that for twisted irony? A friggin leather sleeve. But I wouldn't let it go and use it all the time which is why I wanted one from the beginning. And when I was included in some pre-order group and it was promised, why not? The only silver lining is I like the current generation sleeve better. Now, sadly, it's waiting for my Ti to return from RMA; cold leather needs some love.
disappointing. O I just turned it on and it goes instantly blue. Fuckin a. This is so stupid. This will be the 3rd v5 body that doesn’t work
Their almighty 5th times a charm bug free v5 turns out just like the first 4 versions. I’m sorry bro
Wow that sucks .Just got a new body after my v5 broke and this body doesn’t allow me to put the pfe or regular mp on. How could they test a unit that can’t even be put together properly. The mp end is just to wide for the mp can’t even screw it I completely. I’m at a loss for works right now
Not recently nor do I recall or aware they have. Maybe a long time ago (in a galaxy far, far away). It's a shame but then it would take too much of their precious time since they're doing such a bang-up job with many RMAs (apologies to those still with issues) - and mine too currently in RMA purgatory, which I'm anxious about and don't know what to expect whenever it is returned.

miss my hopper
I would consider a Splinter, Splinter Z or a Lil Bud. All are great but not in a pen format. My Grasshopper works perfectly these days. Run it on 5 as long as I want and no combustion. Still I prefer those other vapes. The Grasshopper gets used regularly and is enjoyed immensely but I don't agree that a working Hopper is necessary the best. It's up there but there are others.
