No coupon. When you put in a US address it will subtract the 20% VAT since it is shipping outside the UK. So when I am logged in it shows me the price of £165.83.

Well, that was interesting.
Prior to sitting down to watch the latest X-Men explosion-fest I loaded up my hopper for a little belief-suspension assistance.
Before starting I needed to change the battery. In doing so, I unwittingly set the temp to 5 and took my first hit without checking.
I normally run my hoppers at 4, rarely temp stepping up from 3.5 to 4 but usually just straight at 4.
You see where this is going.
That is some massive cloud production, right there. I could not keep up. I do believe I've had a small glimpse of the power that awaits when pairing the hopper with a water piece which will make it manageable.
BWAHAHAHAHA!!
Anyway, the movie was fun too and belief was well-suspended.

It's another level and when you hook to water it will smooth it out. Flavor is compromised by both temp and water, but ...
I won't say it's better way, just another way; I still often go for nicer flavor at lower temps. Nice to have options!

Here are a few suggestions...
Medium grind just dropped in the oven, maybe with the lightest of tamps.
I prefer level 3 for heat setting, but experiment.
Don't place your lips on the very tip. It gets quite warm. Instead, place your lips at the end of the tapor.
I turn my gh off after each pull and wait for it to completely cool down before my next heat up and pull.
That should get you started. Remember the gh resources page if you encounter any bumps. And of course, us fellow hoppers are always here.

What can I say? I'm a creature of habit.
I don't know how you "hit it native at 5" guys do it. My throat is wrecked this morning. I'll definitely have some water hooked up next time I try that.

20 going on 60
I find that wrecked throat feeling dissipates fairly quickly, far quicker than when I used to wake up after a night of smoking.
However, having used the hopper on 5 through water and not waking up with a wrecked esophagus I'm going to always opt for my hopper/orbiter combination wherever possible.

Sorry for my bad English I really don't understand what you mean for threads, the threads to clean with Deoxite . It's not the contact in the back end , is it where you screw /unscrew the back end ? Thanks for the answer

Many vapes & accessories. Always happy to help
Posted this kinda mouthpiece adapter in the Milaana thread already, but as it's available in different versions (18mm m/f, 14mm m/f) and very good to help cool down the unbearable heat stream produced by the GH, I thought I tout once more 
It's only around $5.
Here we go:
Fits the GH condom too - I prefer using a piece of silicone tube that won't slip off that easily. That 90 degrees really help "breaking" the heat.
Bought on dhgate:

I haven't spent any time on the shipping thread lately, but GHL must feel pretty good about their current building/shipping situation if they are willing to promise hoppers in time for the holidays. It's one thing to mess with vapist expectations; but messing with people's holiday gifting?
EDIT: Hmm, just noticed that they are promising an "estimated delivery" in time for the holidays. This should be interesting.

They told me "next week" so many times I literally had to burry my face in my hands for a second after reading that
They can promise you an estimate any day but does not mean it is going to be true in anyway
I am lucky if I get it in December and my first estimation was for June 2016

This Holiday offering is pretty ballsy.
On one hand they're setting a lot of people up for more disappointment, and right at the holiday time. Does HL have a realistic expectation of completely catching up with all of their pre-orders in the next 4 to 5 weeks?
It looks like lately they are shipping (sporadically?) units ordered in early months of 2016, so over the course of the past several months we've seen the lead times go from 12 months down to 9. Are they abruptly reducing that number now to 5-6 weeks? from today?
On the other hand, if HL plans to be all caught up in 6 weeks, with ~9 months backlog PLUS holiday increase, then some of the employees might be looking for a new job come January! Maybe they can be put to work tanning hides and sewing leather sleeves.
For perspective, I ordered in early August '15 and delivery was projected to be Sept. '15. I received mine in August '16.
At least now we'll be able to see relatively quickly how this enticement plays out.
While I do love my gh,
seeing use
of the holidays
to hype hopper
makes me unhappy.
Edit; Just realized this was my 1,000th post... and I made kinda Haiku.![:\](/i/s/hmm.gif "Hmm :\")

This is just not happening... I received this "fabulous" newsletter as well and I kinda felt and acted like you @Hjalmark ...
I had the same excuse with @Purple Lava Lamp regarding the batts and basically according to HL my hoppers are ready for shipment but the batteries shipment are holding them back.. These guys are just amazing...in a negative way! I've given up any attempts trying making them feel bad for their service and I'm just waiting it for them while getting any of their bullshitting as it comes along.
No matter how good product they may have, if you're lucky and it's not faulty when you receive it, it's just inappropriate the way that they're dealing with their customers. It's like if we're junkies and we're waiting for our dose desperately... WELL SCREW THEM!!!
I'm just hoping that my hoppers arrive at some point and fingers crossed I won't have to deal again with them.. I will be very frustrated if I have to send any of them back for repair/change..
And after that, nowhere near those fuckers again.. They have no right in lying and bullshitting so many people like that.. And If it was in my hands, I would turn people away from them in the near future. They don't deserve doing business when they are treating their customers like that.
Other than that, I hope you guys are ok and that you're having the most out of your hoppers! Fingers crossed to all of us that are still on the waiting list, that we get ours before Xmas!
Cheers

Was going out to a bar with some friends and family and started packing up my other vape in a case with stems and herb and I thought, the fuck am I doing.
Put it all in a drawer, packed a fat GH bowl to last me the night, and carried it in my pocket. Couldn't be easier. No multiple bowl packs, no extra stems, just a fuckin pen. How is this real.
Hit the bathroom *click* *rip*
*click* *stoned*. 15 seconds. From a pen. Really ...?

Who are they sending that message to?
People with hoppers and people waiting. People waiting are properly annoyed by it, and people with one don't really care about receiving a weak marketing statement.
I will still recommend anyone interested to buy retail.
I guess they're waiting on batteries and are about to send out a mass shipment, but the backlog is sizeable still. It would have been an appropriate update if they'd dropped the word 'estimate' and actually had some faith in their abilities to deliver.
We've already eaten enough of their weak sauce and that update was a hoppered af moment for HL PR

Perhaps it was aimed at happy hopperers who might consider gifting one to someone else. But those folks would be all too aware of the ephemeral nature of the HL ESD, so...

I think that's it in a nutshell..
But Vapefiend is a ~$25USD premium, and you can receive one as soon as next week. Way before Christmas or whatever HL are alluding to.
So, as most people don't know that fact, this update is just a weak attempt at a revenue boost. If it was worded confidently it would mean something, it just seems like they've set themselves up for further let downs. Yet again. Customers hate that shit, who are they kidding

It is very strange that they are guaranteeing delivery for new orders before the holiday. I placed my order back in February and it still hasn't shipped, which is kind of ridiculous.

As our 7 batteries (2 Hoppers/people) all go into decline I’m less inclined to care about their lifespan or good management, while I'm also a little concerned about tracking which ones are the ‘good’ ones, etc., so I’m thinking of trying to work with one, maybe two at a time until they each give out.
I got out a second HL charger to be available and for starters, that made it easier to try this out:
With a new, full chamber, took a nice hit at temp. 3.8, but flashing red came on and heat stopped as in, time for battery charge. I attached HL charger and switched on. It soon went to blue for another nice long draw, but then to red flashing (I know it can do this without plugging in, but typically only once). Turned it off and set it down for a minute, was able to repeat and then 3X more to finish at temp 4.8, all without swapping a battery out – for another that might only last one or two bowls anyway.
I don’t think the Hopper would keep this pace indefinitely (regardless of battery age); not so sure it is true pass through and further, i believe usb doesn’t deliver enough current…but maybe I’m gonna find the limit soon enough!
@JoeMama & @Bass Vaper I want to note this: I'm using two different chargers (v1) and two wall warts (from S&B Crafty). Been connecting magnet to Hopper and removing a lot, and also leaving on charger during/after use. Sometimes the charge cycle will not initiate when magnet is connected. Try again, still no lights. And sometimes with charge connected, after a draw and click to off, the charge doesn't initiate, even after minutes to cool. Remove/replace magnet does not start charge cycle. Unplug/re-plug usb from wall wart, or wart from wall, and charge begins. Methinks high, wtf? I don't see a distinct/repeating behavior but I do see that occasionally I unplug/replug the far end of charge wire to get some action.

Even stranger is that they are NOT guaranteeing delivery by the holidaze, only that an estimated ship month of 'December' will be assigned to the order. Track record on meeting esd's is clear.
