    Well, Mr. Vita is on Linkdn, and it's quite a scant profile: His degree is in "Environmental Science", and "Exercise and Health"... noble pursuits, certainly, but... Nor is there any business experience listed other than Bird and another green consulting venture in which he lists himself as...

    So it all appears here that we are white knuckling the ride towards their release date. Reading some of this stuff is disappointing - I did preorder the GH just a few days ago. I want them to succeed (and I want a cool product!). As an engineer myself who's worked in hi-tech avionic and...

    Once again, thank you very much! I pre-ordered my GH. I've tried the Volcano some time ago, and WOW on the medication aspect vs conduction heating. I'm excited that it's convection; I know that's way better. I'm sure I'll be back with comments and questions when I get it sometime in September!

    Thanks much for your post! I'm tempted, but I do have the Pax2, as well as the Pax1... you might say I've been a loyal fan. But the GH looks awesome and the way it's being explained it seems too good to be true! How can something like that be virtually never in need of cleaning? Is it...

    Hey gang..... I came across reading and looking at The Grasshopper Pen Vape on FC, but the pages are so numerous I went cross-eyed for a bit.... then I googled and Youtubed, and still can't figure out what anyone thinks of it as compared to the Pax 2. Anybody?? It seems very awesome in it's...

    I'm impressed by all the ingenuity that goes into finding the best approach to hold finely ground herb in the oven chamber..... I would like to offer a simpler and far less thermally loaded solution (all that metal takes away the efficiency of the heating algorithm used to make Pax be...

    Amen, Brother! It's the one thing about the P2 that I can't stand! If they just made the mouthpiece a little longer or something... that sucker sears (hehe, get it? :rofl:) your lips!

    IMHO, the idea of a pusher or a piece of metal that just "sits" on top of the load just doesn't make as much sense to me as the popular 20mm trimmed pipe screen... for three reasons (feel free to add your own!): 1) The more metal that is placed inside the chamber, the less efficient the oven...

    I agree with ya there, a less effective draw would then be the case. This might have you drawing too easily and getting more air than vape. And that may even screw up the device's temperature control loop. This brings a curious thought (especially since I'm medicated nicely at the...

    So, you don't stir the block at all, even after it's been flipped and re-toasted? I suppose the "middle" of the brick gets toasted the least. I like the nail clipper file idea, thanks! Yes, something with a very thin flat edge; I;ve bee using the "toothpick" attachment from a Swiss Army...

    Sure thing, Mr. Me.... Lithium Ion batteries when new should be cycled to depletion for a few times before it gets its "memory" set. If you "mal-condition" the battery by charging it before it depletes completely, the memory my "set" at that point giving you less longevity of charge. No...

    That may be for your device, but for mine, it used to die at just over 2 petals while I was conditioning it. After leaving it on for a few days and then running it out, it never indicated anything less than 4 petals. Then just like that, dead.

    BATTERY ISSUE: Pax Case # 00208512 I have been in contact with Pax regarding a prior post a couple weeks back here about my Pax 2 dying at 2 battery bars. I did as they'd instructed, which is to say, conditioned the battery (which I was already doing), and then after afterwards leaving it on...

    Ah, OK, the ol' tap tap tap! I'd been trying to pick it out with a dental tool .... Always crumbled and wound up just mashing and stirring it instead. Thanks!

    I'd like to hear just how you get that brick out and turned upside down without it breaking apart in the process! I know this is quite a silly thing to ask, but what's your method?

    Mr. King, that is IMHO the sagest advice on how to stuff the Pax (either 1 or 2). Science 101: • Metal absorbs heat energy and decreases efficiency. Therefore, the less metal the better, and a rolled up stainless screen is the way to go. Pack tight enough to keep the material together, but...

    The Pusher seems to be cool, but what about airflow versus using the curved screen solution? It just seems that the Pusher more impedes airflow than a screen would. Appreciate input there.

    BSki, I'm like you in that I take a few hits every so often throughout the day. I believe both Pax 1 and Pax 2 are perfect for this, especially with the use of a curved stainless screen or this new-fangled spacer that has been mentioned several times on here. I'd like to see one of those...

    Nothing to do with the text of your post, but in your video you stated that one's social security number is required to register the device. I don't know about anyone else, but I registered online and there was no field for SSN in the process. I'm registered and have not given my SSN.
