    No, it's just like that. Have you not been able to? It's been possible for months now.

    As far as FC members who have been here since they backed the GH many many moons ago- do you think they AREN'T going to post when they receive it, whether they are sharing good or bad news? How many posts are we seeing over in the shipping thread of "got my address comfirmation!" "Got my...

    I have some extra Underdog stems, but yeah...not really what I want to have to do. Still, seems like I've seen less complaints about vapor heat/harshness than I have about broken units.

    Well, that's a bummer.....

    I'm a lot more concerned about the back end heating, which is not normal, than the mouthpiece heating, which IS normal. Pretty sure that's what Fizznuggets was talking about too...

    Don't be sorry, people want to hear about this stuff. Though we'd rather hear about weeks of flawless operation. Am I wrong in thinking the back end is not supposed to be getting hot, and especially not hotter than the oven? Disturbing that Trevor wouldn't address that.

    ....well, parts of them. Who knows how long it takes them to get from that picture to a completed hopper?

    The Grasshopper Shipping Poll

    I lost track, have any regular backers received theirs? As far as estimated ship dates that they've updated on their site- those are all over the place. Some people who were the earliest backers got bumped to September when later backers are at August. But...estimated shipping dates have been...

    Have fun putting your Volcano in your pocket, then going out and taking discrete rips from it!

    I don't know if I'd look at it as heavy usage is killing them so much as "you have X number of cycles before this fault manifests itself". (Not on every single unit, just those that eventually fail). Then again, shit like back end just falling off, who even knows...?

    Where are you getting this information that colored Ti have better insulation? Or that they are in any way noticeably different than regular Ti? I'm doubtful they even behave noticeably different than SS, but we've been around and around with that one before. Have to wonder about the "sending...

    I heard that about the headshop too, but the idea of someone having a fully working finished GH a year ago is completely incomprehensible. Or at least, fully working for more than a day or two...

    Nope, several people said theirs changed from July to August.

    There's preorders from like 3 months ago that have an estimated ship date of August, but as a backer from 2013, I'm September? Mines just SS too, so I don't think there's anything to the theory that Ti causes more of a delay. Fuck that shit....

    So, Grasshopper Labs, you are telling me you actually aren't assembling 1000 units a week?! Maybe my new September ship date might turn out to be the most realistic communication I've ever gotten from them. Still fucking ridiculous though....

    Yep, all us Dec. backers still have a while to wait.... ....lucky us, maybe we won't need to send ours back in for replacement..... #seeHowOptimisticIam?

    Nikcorda is referring to "Please consult the website for updated estimated shipping info later this coming week." They said that on Sat. Week's not over yet though!

    The Grasshopper Shipping Poll

    The June 15th update said they were expecting to be making 1000/week by the end of July. That did not happen :) That was way before they hired any additional workers. Hopefully the fact that we are hearing about more and more shipping confirmations means that they are speeding up assembly....

    The Grasshopper Shipping Poll

    OF COURSE it's quite vague, that's their signature style.... If you want a theory about why it's going so slow, how I think it's at least partly what they said- it takes a lot longer to assemble than they thought it would.
