I couldn't help but get onboard here and chime in... I've been very rarely on here ever since I surrendered to buying at least 2 hoppers... Before that, I would get Hopper Withdrawal Syndrome and you all would talk me off the ledge. But even as I continue to manage to keep 2 hoppers running...

Couldn't agree more... they had a brief moment of hope and valor when they "took production inside", and then just shat themselves again. Shame. EDIT: So now I just got this: "Your Hopper is still in line for replacement parts, you are about 30-60 days from service being completed. We...

Hi, Baron.... I've been off FC for a while; but since mid-May I've had an RMA going on for one of my Ti's. Each month I email them to say "I own two (actually, 3) hoppers and you have one in for repair and now the one I have is crapping out intermittently....", etc, and each reply is, "oh...

I guess I've had different karma with these things... Out of a dozen RMA's in two years, I've had one due to the body, and the rest due to bad backends!

If it’s a $250 device, and the body is $80, that’s a $170 backend. I guess that’s only if we’re talking titanium, though. That “special hi-tech space-age 3D printed heater element” is pretty darn cheap to make, I guess. I honestly don’t get why people want a spare heater... it says “if you...

BUT ITS THE FRIGGIN’ BACKEND I ALESYS HAVE PROBLEMS WITH!!!:rant:

Ah, so it would appear you are closer to resolution; at least right now your sliver body works and you're using a hopper; even if only half of it is your own ;) I'd recently talked a friend into a hopper, and, alas, 2 months later, it failed with some major clicker problems... No lights, or...

LOL Indeed :rofl: Best laugh I had all day.

They don’t slip off the contacts!?

Jesus man I hope this company doesn't go belly up with all this shit. There's nothing like this thing, but unless you own at least two, you're destined to be without for months at a time. EDIT: What battery charger, other than HL's, would work with these batteries NOW THAT you cant get...

I have a quick question... Is it a bad idea to drop the backend in ISO if it is not working? I know its the backend as I have more than one hopper and swapped, etc... It doesn't click on unless I'm at T5 and have cursed at it a few times, and if I move the temp dial it goes off, then maybe...

Hey Baron, I must live in an alternate universe... I've never received a hopper without a battery in it... whether new or RMA'd.... It would definitely be better if it wasn't in the body during shipping. Perhaps "g-force" is inappropriate, but "shock" is more like it... Tiny circuits tend to...

All good points, Molten... I agree that the packaging is a bit sparse for shipping new units.... You mentioned that the "new" units are packaged better; this must be a very recent change because the new one I'd bought in March-ish came the same as the older ones. And indeed, I am spoiled, so...

I had this same thing going on with my recently RMA'd hopper. Sent it back as it had similar symptoms as those you describe. Glad you've got things resolved! Of course, we can't prove anything, but, I can TOTALLY believe that the hoppers indeed will experience some high g-forces as they...

It used to be the norm that HL would be awful at communications, and since January, they didn't seem to be much better. I had a late December RMA that I got back about 4 weeks ago. I had to ask for it - twice - but I was satisfied that they replied to me.... Helpful Hint: The Warranty...

Mine came back with the same SN, and it is definitely smooth (and so far that hasn't changed at all.) It really does depend on those things, @snaffle ; also the grind quality (fine but not quite powdery, IMO), and THC content... it seemed to me for a while my hoppers weren't being...

Thanks, Vapor-Eyes... I know the grittiness thing ng yo describe; that is what I get on another one of my TI’s. Not to be confused with what I’d described, this “play” (and, @MoltenTiger , you may be right re your theory of what tha feeling is) happens at ALL points, anywhere. At any...

I must ask this question of anyone with a V2 hopper. While the backend dial is smooth like glass, as @MoltenTiger and I have stated earlier, does it feel like it has a bit of "play" in it? Please allow me to explain... By "play", I mean a "catch" (as converse as these terms are, they both...

I think we who abuse and kill these units represent the Real World Proving Grounds for HL. ... and if there was never a Lifetime Warranty, HL would've gone out of business; literally more than half the reason I even recommend or buy these units is because HL has stood behind them... As you...

Right on, Molten! Well said, indeed! I have finally been able to recommend a Hopper to friends, and recently one has received his and he's in love. I have yet to figure the Temp that is best for dry use (non-water), because, well, I'm a cloud freak. Perhaps I should go for the terps and...
