    I used to temp step at every 1/2 mark followed by an extra 2 hits at maximum temperature for 11 consistent (powerful) hits from every load. All the weed I got worked great like this for several years. Bought several $100 ounces of gorgeous weed awhile back. Looks great but isn't giving 11...

    A man's gotta believe in something. I believe it's time for another hit of covid protection. 😁👹

    With good second tier weed, temp stepping my io will give a session consisting of 11-12 excellent 10-15 second hits, sort of like sharing a full size joint made with roughly twice as much weed. That would require two batteries, but it could be an enjoyable session. There is one problem. My...

    General question to anyone: What weed quality level do you prefer? Of course, premium weed would always be preferable, except when it's drastically overpriced. In that case is medium price or budget weed a better option? The io appears to work the same with any weed, you see a lot of vapor...

    If I'm understanding you, HL tried to convince you it was a user problem and not a defective product. What did they say exactly? Can you describe the problem(s) you experienced? I'm guessing they've sold more than 10,000 units to date, maybe 20,000, and somehow, despite the crazy warranty...

    I agree with Spleeeno. I haven't requested warranty service in over a year so I only know what I've heard in this thread. Can I ask a question? Did HL answer your request for warranty service, did they instruct you to send it in for repair? Some folks say they are being ignored. Thanks.

    Are stoned drivers are causing a lot of wrecks and fatalities, compared to alcohol? Are the authorities looking for a way to cash in with big fines similar to a DUI charge? IMO vaping weed while driving is potentially more dangerous as a distraction, sort of like texting while driving. That...

    Good news for a change! 😆 How does it compare to whatever device you've been using recently?

    My heating element came loose accidentally after I let the MP threads get too sticky. Eventually, I hand tightened it. Tried to get it loose again recently to inspect the screen and elements but it didn't want to come loose. I'm only using my hands, and stopped trying when worried the chamber...

    They used respond within a week or so after a new request was submitted. It might be difficult to keep mine working another 10-15 years if they've gone belly up. My brother took a chance and ordered the SS io black Friday deal. It's been 6 weeks and he's still waiting.

    I've also considered removing the battery and back end and submerging the chamber in ISO up to the intake ports. Might use 91% ISO then warm it with a hair dryer to be sure it's dry enough.

    I'm trying to think of a specific manufacturing defect which could explain the rapidly declining performance you described. Based on your description, a partially plugged air path due to either a plugged heater screen or MP tip could explain the declining performance. Both are easily plugged...

    Did you open a warranty service request?

    This sounds like a cleaning problem. They can become partially plugged in as little as one month.

    IMO, the GHB3 batteries are better than the GHB2 batteries. I only get 5-6 long hits per charge, but the hits are more reliable and impressive. I connect the charging ring several times a day, but that's easier than messing with multiple batteries. It's my view that both the io and the OG can...

    What's in your vape right now?

    Pulled some Jabberwocky out of the freezer. It's somewhat popular in the Colorado area according to several websites. Admittedly, I bought it mostly because it looked good with 26% THC on the label, and it was marked down to $100/oz. It has a strong spicy smell, almost like pine. It's a...

    I've always tried to minimize element exposure to ISO as well, probably haven't cleaned my screen properly as a result. Will take a closer look later today. First I need to try this strange mixture I just filled it with....👹

    Very useful info. I guess it makes sense as well. Do you normally scrub that screen with a damp q-tip when cleaning? This also makes me wonder if an ISO soaking of the element and screen would work. Maybe 91% ISO would dry completely and do no harm. Is your added friction coming from the...

    Have used weed for 50+ years, but the efficient, clandestine, reliable (for me anyway) grasshopper makes it so much more enjoyable. I think of the millions who have used weed one way or another throughout recorded history and I feel lucky...
