Yea updates on the status of production units and just a hey sorry we are busy we are working on getting these babies in your pockets! If another company is producing their creation for mass production it sometimes can without constant communications between themselves and grasshopper HQ...?


But even a short blip saying the first #### are in production! Would be nice.. We did fund them even further then their original goal...

Let's be positive.. Hopefully they aren't robbing us all and running.. But let's not jump to conclusions just yet..

Huh? It takes all of 1 minute to make a post. And do you think the owners of this project are actually hand making each and every one of these that they don't have the time to make a post or two?
they have 3000 to build. there are only about 10 of us or so on here chatting about this. Don't expect them to commit time to us 10 on this board because they are super busy making their fortune:)

I would think that GH is not only busy with production details to satisfy the immediate early adopters, but also very busy laying the foundations for a viable company going forward. It can be a huge undertaking, particularly for a newcomer to big business.

Do you actually think that the ones who have responded to us in the past are actually building them?

Do you think it's outside the realm of possibility that they could just tell someone, anyone that might be just hanging around within shouting distance to give us an update?

They've been here before. If they really think that we're not worth their time, why would they have communicated with us in the first place?

Considering all of the above, what you are saying doesn't make any sense.

What is it that we so desperately need to know right now that a private PM or email to Trevor can't answer and be reported back to the rest of us? The horse just left the barn a few minutes ago. What could've happened so soon after that we require a news flash? Just sayin, Iwien...you know I lub ya!!!

I know Snappo. Just trying to make sure that 2 + 2 still equals 4, if ya know what I mean.

I can totally understand that they may feel that there's nothing new to report so why report anything. That, while I may not agree with it, I could understand. What I can't understand is Shay's post that they're too busy building 3000 units to post here. THAT makes no sense to me, for the reasons I stated above.

I agree, guys, let's put things in perspective.... We've all purchased a $100 vape pen! I think it's unreasonable to expect daily or even weekly reports. Unless, of course, there's a major reason for an update. They've already gave us a timeline from production to shipment of first units in February. I'd be perfectly happy if they posted an update every two weeks or so. Just my 2 cents.....I mean fuck, I just received a $40,000 car that I ordered 3 months ago, and during that time period they may have given me three updates on delivery status and I was totally okay with that. Here, we're talking about $100 vape and some expect daily updates even on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day LOL....

I don't expect any new information for at least a month.
But hopefully we'll get some updates when production actually starts.
Which could be at least a month.
:party:
Beat me to it , I was thinking the same. Give it a month or so to get some solid news updates, lets hope its sooner.
Happy Holidays to all:party::cheers:

The new toys should ease my wait.

I don't know about solid news but this just came up at Indigogo

Hey everyone!

We hope all of you are doing well. We've been working hard on the Grasshopper through the holidays and it's looking good. I just wanted to let everyone know that we are implementing a way for confirm your order, update acessories purchases and more. This is taking a little longer than we expected in part because, due to the requests of many of you, we decided to add a lot more functionality. Expect its release by next week. No need to worry we have all your orders safe and sound!


Have a Happy New Year from the Grasshopper team

I don't read this as adding functionality to the Grasshopper, but adding functionality to the ordering process. Can't they just use Backerkit?
Yeah I wasn't sure so I put the ?????? , but I agree I thinks its more for the ordering form.

I just watched a video on use, looks like it's going to be a lot of technique to the pull. Anytime IMO that a pull lasts as long as the one the guy did on youtube he's pulling with a specific rhythm.

Don't get me wrong, still interested in it. My solo is on the way out, gonna need a flower port soon. Might even just get another solo, but this looks good.

They could be using some kind of aerogel :
The maximum operating temperature of an aerogel material depends heavily on its composition. Monolithic silica aerogels remain generally intact until about 700°C, at which point they will begin to sinter (densify). At hotter temperatures, they will eventually melt. Composite aerogel blankets can be used at temperatures upwards of 1000°C.
