I believe you can adjust it between clicks; I typically start bowls around 2 - 2.5.

Apologies for the quality (phone flash). When I get a chance this week I'll post some good pics/videos for you guys.
It actually says the blue flashes will increase in intensity as the battery discharges more and more, so if the blue lights start blinking really really fast, you can know to throw it on the charger before it turns red and is about to die perhaps... Is this true @midgetsanchez ?
You can absolutely adjust the dial to any temp

For me a one hitter is almost the opposite of on demand. One hitter, it just one hit (a short session). You put it at max then draw one time with your vaporizer. Then you get nice thick vapor and your ABV are hopefully a nice even brown color.
On-demand, is the contrary, you extend your sessions over many hits, possibly many hours/days.
For example, the MFLB is clearly a on-demand vape but not a one hitter. It's not a one hitter because it's conduction and you must mix between hits. Put it at max temp will only roast one side of the load. But the mflb is a great on-demand vape. Put 0.1g in your box and you can use it every now and then for a full week!! Taking draws only on-demand. It can do this because it doesn't cook your herb when you have finished drawing and heat your herb very quickly when you start drawing. So it never vaporize your herb more than you need to take a draw.
I'm a big fan of on-demand vaping. The real opposite of on-demand vaping are session vaporizers like the Pax for example. My desktop E-Nano is also on-demand because it doesnt cook your herb when you stop drawing. The grasshopper can be used in both ways. Both on-demand and as a session vape (although it could get hot as a session vape). I plan to use it as pure on-demand vape. Buzz made an experiement showing us that the grasshopper definitely doesn't cook your herb between draws

From Trevor:
Hi Brad,
We can do this upgrade for you. The cost is $45 and it will not add any delay to your order. If you want to move forward I will send you a PayPal invoice for the money. Thanks for the support!
Let me know,

I think I noticed mine flashing/flickering blue before it died last night. Now that it's fully charged the blue is more steady...I guess it is true.

I think what would make it a one-hitter, is power and efficiency. Something like a log like enano or UD can be a one hitter at high temp with a pinch, seems Hopper can too, something my Firefly cannot...

the Grasshopper is both on-demand and a One hitter... The unit takes ~5 sec to heat up so you have your heat and ability to vape on demand, when you want it, not a minute or 2 after and is great to turn on, hit it once and turn it off and be done until you want more.

For a while I actually believed the moderator ... that posts bitching about the company and shipping wouldn't be allowed.
But over the last few pages, my belief has gone to reality.
Sure wish there was a forum about the GH and not just a bunch of bitching about the company and shipping. But realize that forum is elsewhere.

there is a difference between complaining about how things were done and shit talking a company... plus that was like 4 posts out of the last 7 pages? There are lines, the mods most def do step in when things cross that line

@midgetsanchez when @BuzzDanklin did his famous test video, it seemed like the battery did very well, a lot of bowls and draws (anyone recal how many bowls and draws he had before the battery have out?). Would you say the hopper has that good of a battery life so far?

it'll do any temp in between too, although you may have to guess as to exactly where you are, but it'll do 132, 156, 177, 192, 209, depending on where you've set the dial.

Someone went through the video and timed the actual in use time of the Grasshopper in that video, and it was just under 10 minutes.

You take the blue pill, the story ends. You wake up in the grasshopper thread and everything is about the product design and performance. You take the red pill, you stay in wonderland, and I show you how deep the bitching about shipping delays and corporate communication goes.

For on-demand use that actually seems like a lot

It seems sufficient to me. In use alone, I don't imagine I'll have any problem, and with other people...well, that's why I have 2 extra batteries ordered, and luckily I'll be getting a free 3rd as well, now. Edit: @midgetsanchez How does it let you know when it's fully charged?
I'm thrilled, but kind of puzzled why this thread exists already when exactly one backer has their hopper. Wasn't a mod clarifying on the GH thread candidate that the official thread would only exist after backers and pre-orders have been filled, and regular production is on?
Not a complaint, but so far this thread is pretty much exactly like the last one (substitute sanchez for buzz). So let the speculation continue!!!
This thread is not exactly like the last one nor will it be allowed to deteriorate to that state. You clearly don't recall how bad that thread got. This thread exists because someone received a production unit. Now pay close attention to what I say to the next guy because it applies to you too.
We have a rule:
- Public discussions of staff decisions are not permitted on the site. If you have any concerns or queries relating to a staff decision please take it up in private with a staff member.
This applies to everyone: it really is time to stop posting about how you would have run Grasshopper Labs so much better and either discuss the GH itself or find another thread to complain in. This one should be about the device and not the campaign or the long wait.

I go where the thrills are
If by "clearly" you mean "IMO", then I agree.
But plenty of us have used the LB as a one-hitter, for years and years now. The conduction aspect isn't the issue for the LB as it is with other "session" vapes....the issue is you don't cook weed unless you decide to press in the battery and take a hit. That's classic "on demand" and yes, for many many LB users, a "one hitter".You obviously don't use it that way, and that's cool. But to declare it's "clearly" not a one-hitter is simply not true.
OK enough off topic for me...

yes, especially considering the GH battery is only 750mah. FF & MFLB get much less out of much bigger batteries. I wonder if GH is planning their version of the Mighty next? With the size of their tech, you wouldn't sacrifice much for a larger hopper with 4x the battery life and even a power adapter... But really, w/ the short charge time and USB charging, I don't anticipate needing anything more.

I hope that Buzz gets a production SS and Ti unit sometime so we can possibly judge the difference that this new insulation makes on the heat retention of the MP and whole unit.
And guys, really....Pak's warnings are just above on this same page, but noooooo....

or well that we all get production units to compare... we dont need him to keep getting data anymore now that we shall have our ownI hope that Buzz gets a production SS and Ti unit sometime so we can possibly judge the difference that this new insulation makes on the heat retention of the MP and whole unit.

Good question raised on reddit I haven't seen the answer to. Do you have to press the button once or twice after auto-shutoff to turn it back on?

Poor Buzz and Midgetsanchez... i wouldn't want to be in your shoes! Sure Id like a hopper, but without the inquisition hopefully. Looking forwards to many people comparing notes.
I'v just pulled the trigger and (pre)ordered - now I just need something else to occupy my brain for 3 months

Twice. It's in Buzz's video.

Oh damn, I forgot about that. I remember being surprised in the video when buzz clicked it twice. I assumed it would be single click on/off like a pen.
