    Best vaporizer for lower temperatures (158-165C°)

    Interesting thread for several reasons. I read the previous posts, thought I might could add something to consider. I start each load with a terp (flavor bomb) at 110°C (230°F). Every convection device should start this low IMO. The boiling point of humulene is only 107°C. It's true that...

    The 65w io heats incoming air to the desired temperature, but only when drawing air. The heaters are directly in the air path, 1-2 mm before the load. Hot air directly on the herb "strips" aromatic compounds. I also have a Davinci IQ conduction vaporizer. It's for sale, very lightly used.

    I'm guessing the slow draw also provides an extra few seconds for the load to heat up and for compounds to absorb heat, in a wave beginning closest to the heater. The end result (with my io) is lungs filling slower with a richer vapor. I like to click it off and continue drawing thru it until...

    Are you talking about degrees centigrade?

    The Convection Thread

    I wanted to add a couple of comments concerning my post above. I'm finding that some strains look good but don't produce much flavor at 230°. I assume there are multiple factors causing this, everything from genetics, grow techniques, storage techniques, etc. IMO most commercial weed is grown...

    Totally agree. The grasshopper io portable convection device gets a bad wrap mostly because of Hopper Lab's poor customer service, plus it's difficult to keep clean and free flowing, but I've been using grasshoppers for more than 5 years. Can't recommend it but it's been amazing for me. The...

    They agreed to send my brother's order immediately when cornered by the bank, then didn't. It was two weeks later when the bank took action. HL still seemingly intends to fulfill all other outstanding orders, in case anyone else is waiting, but I wouldn't send them any cash until they get...

    My brother ordered the black Friday SS special after Thanksgiving, but hadn't received anything almost 2 1/2 months later. He convinced his bank HL had behaved fraudulently for failing to warn customers of a lengthy delay but going ahead and processing the credit card charges immediately (he's...

    Prolly not gonna taste good unless mixed with sugar and alcohol. I'll stick with flower, but it could be worth billions.

    Coincidentally, I stuck a dull wooden toothpick in the MP nose and scraped the screen this morning after it had been soaking awhile. It only took me 5 1/2 years to figure this out, it's difficult like rocket science.

    Does anyone know if HL still makes grasshoppers in the USA or have they started importing? It used to say made in the USA (to ensure quality) on the website but can't find it now. I think I remember hearing the batteries are made in China. The banner on the website is interesting. It's...

    Excellent info. Thanks. I wish I would have had it all along. I bought my first one via eBay for $200 in 2016. Might have had it but don't remember seeing that manual. Is it on the website now, for the io? I was soaking my MP in ISO before, just not long enough. This manual doesn't...

    After more than 5 1/2 years, I'm still learning better ways to keep the io clean. My normal procedure was to use a toothpick then soak the MP screen in iso for a few minutes while cleaning the chamber. I'm usually anxious to reload it ASAP. A few days ago, I cleaned it like normal, it looked...

    I misspoke in the post above concerning GoGlass's clicker malfunction. Should have said: Maybe the clicker operation can be improved with some sort of cleaning or lubricant. Only guessing, haven't had a clicker problem yet. Have any cleaning solutions or lubricants been applied in the past...

    Not sure why a clicker would stop making connections. It could be repaired with a proper cleaning and some sort of non-conductive lubricant (Edit: Not sure what sort of lubricant can be used.). Please keep us informed. Everyone wants to know if HL will come thru or if the party's finally...

    Haven't heard anything, but haven't had a reason to contact HL either. Noticed my io wasn't very satisfying this morning. Didn't realize until after I cleaned it that it was partially plugged. Still not 100% sure what was plugged. I could see daylight thru the MP, and the tip was clear but...

    What's in your vape right now?

    You might can save enough in Oklahoma to pay for the trip. Prices for excellent flower vary from day to day and place to place, but $100/oz can usually be found with an online search. It's my understanding that cheap visitor medical licenses are rubber stamped. I'll help if I can. Don't have...

    I happen to know of someone in need of a replacement heating element & chamber. Might be willing to pay a fair price, if you have one lying around for sell.
