    Thing 1: Thanks for this post, HJ!! It's so good to get some kind of look inside the brain-trust... This is IMO definitely an "assembly and test" operation ONLY. I certainly hope those pictures are old, because I don't like thinking that the one long-view picture is the entire operation. I...

    It is kind of funny that the single category of "Portable and On Demand" can have within it so many differences! *Apples and oranges... so similar yet so different. Why do I have the sudden urge to start speaking French? :tup: Yep, sounds about how I expect it to go. I'll survive with...

    I guess I'm not even gonna ask how long they even expect it to be.

    Whisper that brought a smirk to my face, thanks :D I was thinking as well, how the more things change, the more they stay the same. @manujoe .... As @TheWhisper says, turning the temp dial can impart motion to the battery (or at the very least, turn the backplate against the negative terminal...

    Be well! I as well will be going dark for as long as it takes to get my hoppers back to leave commentary then....

    Hahaha -Oh them's blues alright, dig it. SSDD here as well.... other than the earth shifting under our feet (he that hath ears let him hear), nothing surprises me anymore. That's true; the Hopper seems to require a tech-touch to use properly. I just finished loaning my spare Ti to a friend...

    Moon how the hellarya?! My FW4 isn't quite my daily driver, but it has consistently been my nightly one. It remains a bit of a mystery to me as to whether there's a better draw method to use with the FW than I am executing, but all I know is that "it works", though it seems it's hard to even...

    Ah, but how do I know you put a real hopper in that Ashton sleeve? It could be empty! :freak:

    The two pics missing are the ones showing the hopper (with each mouthpiece) in the Ashton case. IMO, it is the better napsack for PFE hoppers. It keeps the whole hopper covered.

    Yeah, I know you're probably right... that's why I own two. :cool:

    I enjoyed reading your post, Molten... sensible and positive :tup: So I just RMA'd my Ti, and I noticed a bit of a different response in the RMA acceptance from Caroline. I'd actually re-opened a claim since it was "similar" to a previous one. And again, it's about the thing just not...

    Happy New Year everyone! My Ti is crashing, not delivering on heat like it used to... IS there a problem with GHL's warranty process on their website? I get a "OOPS" page returned from sending the request. Thanks Holy shit, Sam... That is both a long time and too many times. And I'm in a...

    Just trying to catch up on The State of GHL these days; I don't get much time to sit in with you folk like the old times ;) In the past two months I'd happened upon two friends that were ready to upgrade from their current modes of vaping/smoking, and they are set on getting Hoppers. In fact...

    DISCLAIMER: I had not intended this to be so friggin' long. I really didn't mean this to be a treatise on the Revelations about Battery Performance over Time in the Real World. However, I think it's worthy of publication in either Science Today :science: ... or Psychology Today. :mental...

    @DelaSheck , while I can't speak to your experiences regarding vapor production that seems anemic, I can say that the blue flicker on draws is now the new normal, apparently. I had sent both of my Ti's back at one point a few months ago, and one came back with the "blue flicker on draw", while...

    Thanks, guys. I have both some dental tools as well as the pointy tweezers. It's tempting to try and take it off, but as you've said, Molten, if it ain't broke.... But good to know how it comes out, by levering it up. I guess it must be some kind of press-fit along the whole depth of the...

    Turns out, I'm chicken. I really have no reason to pull that screen. And it feels wrong to start fucking with something that doesn't need fucking with. Wrong I tell ya!

    Thanks, Monk... I do have the pointy tweezers (I used to use it to unscrew the screen in the mouthpiece before I got the PFE). I'll keep at it. Also thanks for the heads up about the denting potential!
