    Mine stopped working before I first attempted to charge it, unfortunately.

    I wonder if it's some problem that occurs during shipping. Temperature changes? Humidity? Being tossed around (though it was packed very nicely and the shipping box even has a cradle that snugly fits the GH box)? I dunno, but @BuzzDanklin and @slcbdco both picked theirs up in person, and theirs...

    Same with mine.

    Arizer Solo

    Mine works 10% of the time, and those times when it does work, it has a bad taste. So, I've stopped using it. However, the first few times I used it — when it worked and had no bad taste — were amazing. It's a great device when it works. EDIT: If you want more info on my Hopper woes, check...

    Arizer Solo

    My Solo's keeping me nice and toasty in this wintry weather, while my Hopper is riding my desk drawer (until I get a replacement).

    Can you try clicking it on-and-off 10-15 times and see if it works after that? Might even need to try 20.

    Sent off a second email (trevor@grasshoppervape.com, caroline@grasshoppervape.com, and support@grasshoppervape.com) to GHL. Hope I hear something back soon...

    I've gotten the Hopper to work on and off, and I've been noticing a weird taste. I even tried with an empty chamber, but I'm still tasting it. I don't really know how to describe it. I only have the Solo to compare vape tastes to, so it could just be the unique Hopper taste. I hope not though...

    Unfortunately, there is no auto. But that termination voltage seems to be for the nominal voltage. I just left the batteries in for a while, and it charged them to ~4.20V then shut off. Good point.

    @delloy @Jack Sprat What charging current do/would you use for the GH batteries — 0.25A, 0.50A, or 1.00A — with your XTAR chargers? EDIT: Hm. So, the GH batteries say 3.7V on them, but when I put them in to the XTAR VP2, the readout says around 3.85V, and then goes upward from there when...

    While I'm awaiting my external battery charger, I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for a USB-to-outlet adapter that would provide adequate input to charge the Hopper at normal speed? While the external charger will be fine for home usage, I wouldn't want to carry it around with me to...

    I doubt it's from me pressing it poorly, as it happens regardless of how I press it. What do you mean by pressing it poorly specifically? Perhaps yours has the same problem as mine, but just to a much, much lesser degree?

    It could also be the same issue and I'm just more persistent about testing it than others were. :p And no reply from GHL yet.

    I'm finding that it's not so much about speed. If I click it on-off a bunch of times (each of those times receiving the ring of death), then, at one point, it'll just stay solid blue and I'll have noticed that it's heated up already, and then it'll work for 2-3 clicks before flashing the ring of...

    My Hopper seems to be in a good mood today. The first time I tried it today, I got the flashing death ring, but since then it's worked for two magnificent cycles (on-hit-off being one cycle). I haven't tried more yet, but I'll see soon if it continues to work. EDIT: Trying again, I had to click...

    Yeah, I just tried turning it, and the ticking definitely changed in volume depending on how the charger was rotated. Weird stuff... And, unfortunately, I don't think my flashes while charging (red-red-red-blue&red) are normal. Does yours really flash like that when charging too?

    I'll leave it sitting on this charger for a while and see if it seems to make a difference. For those with working Hoppers, do they tick when charging?

    I don't know. It says 10W USB Power Adapter on it, along with 'Output: 5.1V 2.1A'.

    So, I've been doing a little testing and no matter what USB port I plug it into — front of computer, back of computer, power supply of my SP3, the Motorola adapter, and even an Apple adapter — the Hopper reacts in the same way. It's a little hard to count because it blinks so quickly, but I...

    Not currently, but I've just ordered an XTAR VP2 and it should be here on Wednesday. It seems to have some manual voltage/current settings that I will need to set when I receive it and put the batteries in. Any suggestions as to what settings I should use?
