I’ve used my StemPod a few times. Interesting device and a lot of fun to mess around with, but I could never imagine it being a Hopper replacement. It has great potential as a pure convection vape in a 510 format, but the Hopper already trumps it in ease of use, speed, and stealth. The StemPod...

I asked Dan to include extra coils with my original StemPod order, but they did not come. I asked him about it and he sent them right away. My StemPod came with the Clapton coils installed, but I received the notched coils as extras. Personally I don't mind because it's just one more option to...

Not a clean break, unfortunately, but thanks for the tip. I sent a PM to @supershredderdan for a new stem (I appreciate the friendly service!). Can you tell me where you got the stem in this picture? Thanks!

Tried my new SP yesterday and was immediately both bummed out and intrigued. Bummed out because I broke my stem as soon as I took it out of the Stashpod. I set it down on a granite counter top and barely knocked it over. It snapped right where the thin part connects to the "bulb" looking part...

In my experience with my oldest SS Hopper, replacing the back end eliminated the "hot back end" problem immediately. So, at least in this instance the "hot back end" was caused entirely by the back end and was not related to the body or the batteries at all. The replacement back end that I...

IME when a vape combusts it's not necessarily related to the temp of the load, or even how dark the ABV gets. Picture a particle of weed making it's way through the screen(s) to actually touching the heating element of the Hopper. It would probably combust on contact. Then picture that particle...

Are you saying that you were able to install @funkyjunky firmware on an Eleaf iStick Pico? I have an Eleaf iStick Pico 75W that I plan to use with the Stempod. I've tried flashing the mytuboevic firmware (180408-tubomyevic-warmup2cruise-autotempstep-beta.bin) and the myevic firmware...

I have 3 Hoppers in rotation, plus a fourth "all new" Ti that I purchased in February. All 3 of my Hoppers are working well, but I want the latest hardware upgrades. I don't want to open RMAs for perfectly working Hoppers, so I ordered a couple of extra bodies. Seems like a good way to upgrade...

This is a very accurate description of my experiences with a Hopper that is exhibiting sub-par performance. I have 4 Hoppers, but only 3 in rotation (I haven't used my Ti Hopper that I ordered in February yet). Sometimes when using my early model Ti or SS Hoppers I experience a first draw that...

I actually read that exact post on reddit before I purchased. I noted it was from 2013, so I think if there were significant issues with the Kepler there would have been a lot more reports in the last 5 years. And thanks for the nudge @AJS. I just put the heat sink on my Pico 75W and it should...

45 minutes may be right with an older battery that has lost some of its capacity, but not with a newer battery and the Hopper charger. I just drained a brand new GHB2 battery (13 1/2 "activations" for anyone keeping count), and it took over 90 minutes to charge back to full capacity. I've...

Thanks, I ordered a Kepler 22mm heat sink off of eBay for about $6. There are many less expensive offers on eBay but they all come from China and take up to a month to deliver. If my eBay purchase doesn't work out I will check Fasttech. At this point I'm really leaning towards pre-ordering the...

The prohibition of public consumption that you cited is correct, however the term "legal trouble" might be a little off base. So this is not a criminal charge but an infraction, which does not result in a criminal record. I think the issue that is more concerning is flying with a vape...

Great info, thanks! I'm back in the hunt now... It looks like heat sinks come in slightly different sizes so I have some research to do.

Watching this thread closely now... It looks like my eLeaf iStick Pico 75W won't work with the Stempod, as the attachment is too wide (Pico can handle 23mm-24mm max). I'm considering an Evic Primo Mini 80W. Can any of the testers comment on how much the Stempod smells during use, and how easy...

I'm not sure why the changes were made (beyond the cabling), but your observations are correct. The newer charger only connects firmly from one side.

There's been two different charger designs. The old design featured a cable that "split" in two, and each end connected to a different side of the charger ring. On the new design the cable isn't split and it only connects to the ring in one spot. Does that describe the difference you are...

For those of you tracking order/ship/receipt dates, I received my new plain Ti yesterday (6/7). I ordered it on 2/28. I never received a shipping confirmation, and my order on the HL site still says "Processed" with no estimated ship date (compare that with my external charger order, placed on...

The battery that came with my Focus Pro is a Samsung INR18650-32E. I'm pretty sure that it has a lower CDR than the Sony VTC5A batteries that I just bought for my iStick Pico. I read that the Pico requires a battery with a CDR of 25A or better. I was able to operate the Pico with the Samsung...

Look at the "add-on" options for purchasing the "Hopper Battery Charger" on the HL site. The only "add-on" listed is a "35 Watt Wall Adapter". I bet that is what they were referring to in their reply.
