    Discontinued Hopper io

    I bought a blue Ti OG for a friend in Sept 2018. I had been waiting for mine to be repaired for 7 months at the time, but still had a positive attitude, and my buddy had expressed interest, so I asked HL for a discount. They gave me a 20% discount on a new blue one just because I asked. He...

    When did this occur and what did HL say during this time? Was it an inventory shortage for a particular Ti color? Are you outside the U.S.? If so, similar delays might be predictable under similar circumstances going forward. Just trying to understand your situation. There has to be more to...

    True. However, HL's warranty has always come thru for me since 2016. The warranty is the main attraction IMO. It's a good business model IF they can eek out a profit and continue to grow. Based on my experience, failures appear to be less frequent with the SS io. I've only had one in 13...

    I'm still wondering if it's a trap to pay more for a fancy Ti device. In theory they work the same, but it sounds like there could be extra delays for the original unit, and more delays later on for replacement parts, when needed. IMO it's a complicated device and repairs are inevitable. I...

    Very sorry to hear about your problem. Would you mind telling us how it failed? I'm wondering how much of this problem is attributable to HL offering a variety of materials and colors. I've heard of folks waiting a long time for Ti models in certain colors. I suppose replacement colored parts...

    What's in your vape right now?

    I remember all of those plus Colombian, Colombian gold, Oaxacan, Thai sticks, and hashish. Scoring a good bag of Mexican weed at a fair price was also a happy occasion. Most of the time it got the job done. A few of the seed suppliers online claim to offer 1970's strains. Some other...

    Nope. I sent a couple to the recycle bin when they obviously failed to avoid confusion, put in-service dates on others. I currently have 3 batteries with a matte (??) finish, one is a 3-month old GHB3. I think I remember tossing a bright blue one several years ago, that one should be an...

    Weed is not good for your heart, studies say

    I can do it, someday. I had a small hydroponic grow room about a decade ago but stopped for several reasons. It was illegal then, and I literally couldn't keep it cool enough to contain the smell. Paid for premium sativa seeds from Amsterdam back in 2008 or so. Those guys were collecting seeds...

    Weed is not good for your heart, studies say

    So many people hurt themselves with alcohol, tobacco, hard drugs, unhealthy diet and other destructive habits. I know there might be a price to pay, but I'll gladly take my chances vaping weed. It makes my brain itch and helps me cope with what I view as a fucked up world. I would have to...

    Discontinued Hopper io

    Hopefully it works correctly. If so, you should enjoy it. But I have to ask, are warranties transferable? If the batteries come with no documentation you might need to test them. Hopefully a couple are the newer GHB3s. You can use a multi-meter for a voltage test, might be able to rule out...

    Vape that will give HUGE hits and can extract small amounts?

    Lots of folks use bongs, performance tips and external battery charger with the io. The grasshopper is the size of a pen and is 90% stainless steel plus a serious lithium battery that takes the chamber from 70° to 430° in seconds. Reminds me of Spacex and Tesla in some ways. I like the...

    What's in your vape right now?

    Farm raised or home grown, I prefer strong sativas. They aren't as profitable for growers in terms of yield. Also the best sativa I usually find these days has only 24-25% THC and this doesn't bring top dollar per ounce, maybe $135-150. While only 24% THC, the Durbin Poison sativa I pulled...

    any on demand portable hybrids around?

    Note: I just typed this in another thread but it works here as well. Hopper Labs got a bad reputation for service quality and for the reliability of the original grasshopper, but the newer model (the io) has been excellent from my perspective. Have been using grasshoppers for 5 years, upgraded...

    This would ruin it for me. Currently getting an excellent 10 hits per load. Probably can only do this with premium sativa having excessive amounts of terpenoids, starting at level 1.5 and progressing to level 5. It always takes 3 hits on 5, regardless of how many I got at lower temps. The...

    Congratulations! 👍 My plain io has also functioned flawlessly for just over 1 year. It was down for a three week repair but that wasn't too bad. Anyone else?

    is my weed magic?

    Fascinating subject. I'm consistently getting 11 satisfying hits per 0.19g chamber load in my grasshopper IO. I've been accused of microdosing but I'm hitting it hard and getting plenty of vapor. For several months, I've averaged 1 1/2 loads per day equal 16-17 hits per day equals 90 days per...

    Very sorry to hear this, seems like it's a recurring theme. You might not wanna talk about it, but would you please tell us more about how and when it broke? Did it simply stop working between two hits, would the lights come on, did it charge normally, did it happen after cleaning, etc...
