    GHL says there was nothing wrong with my dark grey Ti... Sent it in with their new backend thinking it was underperforming. I'll have to settle, I guess, until it fails completely. This is likely, IMO, due to micro-crusty oxidation in the threads, where that kind of twist-tweak commonly...

    Bio, I'm glad you're back up and running! I wish I could say this, but the raw Ti is definitely consistently giving only moderate clouds at T5 on the same flower stash that's been giving great performance prior. GHL says to send it in for diagnostic.. they still have the other one. I'll...

    @biohacker and @Mr. Me2 ... Your posts at least make me feel like I'm not alone here, thanks for chiming in... Something is up, and it can't be my technique, as I've tried EVERYthing. And I can't say I "never" get milky clouds, but when I do, it's nearly always above T4 - rather, I can say...

    Hey thanks, Green. Seems like an identical thing here. And now that you mention it, I agree completely, that rather than have two hoppers (given the temperamental issues), having something else like a Firewood would be wiser. The worst part of having a temperamental hopper is the battery...

    Just a thought here: That SS case idea? If I'm not mistaken, that GHL case is tubular; If it will roll, then it's definitely not for me. Yes to all, actually (well, the first two, really)... I have two: One for daytime Sativa-dominant, and one for nighttime Indica-dominant. Speaking of...

    Eureka! I believe I have finally figured out a method of telling dying batteries apart from new ones that I introduce into the cycle... This spot seems to get the least amount of contact with anything during typical handling, so I thought I'd share...

    @ArthurJ , that's a nice demo with detail, thanks! Do you find that the herb must be very dry to get cloud performance?

    I have a USB lighter adapter and it works fine for me.

    I may be wrong, but USB outputs tend to be typically spec'd between 900mA and 1.5A. So, it's really a matter of what the charger was originally intended for that will he's give you a feel for the stooch it has. Methinks It'd need to be a 1.5A to serve for pass-thru capability.

    OK, I'm interested! Shorter?!? There are "shorter" GH batteries? I have 7 GH1's, and 6 GH2's. They are all the same size.... AND it's labeled backwards? Has GH said anything about this?!

    Happy New Year, Moondog! Well said! :tup:

    I am wondering this myself. Just recently I've been saying positive things about the new backend temp dial feeling so smooth, but it delivers very thin clouds; swapping an older backend proved that out to me, so I had to send the whole unit in --- and I hope that it's not just that the...

    So they got back to me right away and said to send the whole unit in. So be II, glad I have a working spare. I was waiting for the day I'd be glad that had two for a reason other than VAS satisfaction. I can think of no other possible reason other than the things you've mentioned. I think...

    MY recent dark grey replacement backend is not doing what the raw Ti one that I have does. I'd said before that the temp dial is smooth as glass, really nice, but I'm realizing I'm not getting the same output. Maybe if I hit it at T5, I guess, but it's hard to compare at that level. All I...

    @moondog , what happens if you hold down the clicker mid-way. Look for that spot in the motion of clicking that feels like that switch inside is exactly on that edge of making (or breaking) contact. Do you get any lights during doing this? It's one way, I've been led to understand, to see...

    Hope everyone had a vaping good Holiday! I received today the SS Hopper that arrived late for a Xmas gift. I opened it to make sure it was in good condition, and it was, and worked fine. Of special note is the incredible improvement to the backend temp dial FEEL. Last week I rece Bed...

    So, the hopper that I ordered for a Christmas present through the eBay point-of-sale never made it to my house before I left home to visit family for Christmas. The hopper is for my nephew, who currently vapes oil. I hope he even wants a Hopper, but if he doesn't, I'm sure I can sell it...

    @moondog , Nice jump on the bulletin! Clarification, anyone? : Unscrew your front-end and place it in a sealed container of 99% isopropyl alcohol. Leave soaking for 24 hours. Ensure the front-end is completely dried off before putting it back on the Hopper. Dump out any herbs by lightly...
