    Discontinued Hopper io

    I've always had pretty good experiences with Hopper Labs. Ordering accessories was relatively quick. I hung with them through the battery supply problem. I accepted the story about the fire and even sent them a contribution to help them get back into production. I was really happy with the...

    TinyMight / TM 2

    Interesting Reddit post today about a counterfeit "ChinaMight" – he opens it up and exposes it in all its shoddy glory.

    TinyMight / TM 2

    I know! The vape's airpath is so unrestricted and the heater so efficient that a small toke is often all that's necessary. Often I'll start at "3" with a heroic inhalation, then move to shorter ones as I step up, usually ending on 7½ or so. I've yet to even try "9" or "10"! (Might as well...

    Depending on how much weed you put in the chamber and how deeply you draw, it's possible to do a full extraction in one or two long pulls.

    There are two sizes, 10mm and 11mm — make sure you order the right one.

    McMaster-Carr has a wide selection of metal balls. Several grades of stainless as well as a bunch of other metals in various diameters. I've selected these because they are lighter than steel: Fifty ¼" polished aluminum balls for $13 Ten ¼" hollow annealed aluminum balls for $9. Five ¼"...

    The J-hook thread!

    I just ordered two of these in 18mm from ebay – buy one for $10 and get a second one for $6, free shipping. Does anyone know whose studio made the Lotus VaporScope? It was a premium j-hook, provided a great view of vapor production, and worked really nicely for other vapes as well. I'd...

    Since the o-rings fit snugly against the tube, the only contact they have with vapor is the resinous condensate that they wipe off the side of the tube when the CU is removed. Because I use 99.9% iso for soaking the CU, I slip them off and clean them in soapy water as well.

    I'd get at least one extra tube because breakage is always a possibility, especially when you're using it "on the go".

    TinyMight / TM 2

    So true. This is something that I've always said about the Hopper but the TM is like a "Hopper on steroids" (sorry to use such a cliche!) I've only had my TM for a week or two and still need to discipline myself not to take too big a hit, even at level 4, because before I know it I've got...

    Exotic woods have an allure but I really appreciate the workmanlike qualities of natural oak. (I like Craftsman furniture as well.) The medullary rays on my TM are really attractive and become more pronounced with every waxing and buffing.

    TinyMight / TM 2

    Somewhere in this thread I saw – or think I saw – a source for a 14mm WPA (not the 10,14,18 combo that TM sells). I'd love to find one. As far as the variability of vapor production goes, I'm consuming recently-cured weed, and the moisture level is a bit higher than usual. Sometimes I find...

    TM showed up on Friday and it's met or surpassed all my expectations – even the shipping time! Took me a while to get the three-click thing down and sort out the different accompanying pulses but once I had that figured out everything else seemed pretty intuitive. Right away I like the draw...

    This is such a great post. This completely describesthe process I just went through over the past couple of months...and I'm now – finally – awaiting delivery. I'm a Hopper guy. <<ducking>> But realistically I wonder how long they'll be around. For instance, I was gobsmacked when the...

    TinyMight / TM 2

    I'm seriously thinking of getting a TinyMight. How are the shipping times? And what accessories would you recommend? (I'm planning to get a wooden stem from Ed's TNT.) I don't plan to use it with glass, at least not right off. How about the various screens and the o-ring kit? If shipping...

    Yup. My 4/20 io can combust even as low as 3½. I've come to terms with it, though. Rather than requesting an RMA and wondering if I'll ever see the unit again, I just stay below 3 for the most part. I'm using a Lotus VaporScope and if I decide to crank the temp up a bit more I've found that...

    Yes, a certain amount of patience and tolerance is required! I've found that as well. I couldn't believe it when I combusted on 2½ — I never once combusted on the OG. I was going to demand an RMA and write a scathing post on reddit...then the patience and tolerance kicked in. I just had to...

    This is understandable, but my experience has been different, and I'll spend my money as I like. I'm not interested in seeing Hopper Labs fail.

    Don't tell anyone, but I've been using the hazardous batteries. I don't leave them in the NiteCore charger overnight but otherwise I treat them as I do the new ones. Shhhh.....
