    Grasshopper AC Adapter Kit (and 18650)

    How will the power lead terminate? Planning on a DC Jack or something for easy adaptation to different mains plugs/outlets? There was talk of USB-C power delivery - is that possible?

    Very cool, looking forward to seeing how this progresses.

    Weight is mostly determined by moisture in this case, vaping it dries it out entirely. I think a 40% weight reduction is about the average from cured flower to ABV. Different strains are different too. Different grinds allow for different amounts, too much variability all round. But I definitely...

    haha PFE more like I'm pretty sure whatever I did that was even stupider was mostly due to dabs and the Sub, which the GH goes so well with. Terpy headiness on top of something close to saturated ECS, sublime. But, very disfunctional.

    it's pretty annoying with all the resin that it sticks to, and you just sit there thinking, well.... I guess the product works well shiiit. It reminds me of watching people load up stems without a cone piece, then they realise 'oh shit', and everyone is sad because the mix is floating in bong...

    well I described it in more detail than I remembered in my post in 2018, but basically I was going to use a particular battery, and changed my mind, grabbed another and without looking slapped it in and spun the back end on. Near the end of the twisting is when I noticed something was amiss, but...

    I was thinking about that just last night. I have combined my HT back end with my plain TI body (I thought the plain Ti unit was the device I was using when I had that hot reverse battery issue, but now I’m not sure as it was dated Sep. 2018 so it must have been my HT unit...) but anyway, my...

    Whilst I can’t strictly agree, I’ll have to take your words for it. Seems legit

    You can read about @lovecrush’s ‘almost’ exploded hopper from right here too http://fuckcombustion.com/threads/the-grasshopper.18482/page-483#post-1027393 most likely a torn wrapper, although he said he checked it before. Could have also been placed in backwards, probably that. if you don’t...

    A 65W Hopper sounds right up my alley. I missed out on a sub 250 reserve, which is probably a good thing. I don't really want to have another unit, I'd like to downsize if anything. So I hope, given the battery is the same, that some kind of upgrade deal could be arranged. I'd probably just...

    the schematics. All these chargers "do the same thing". They take power from a source and transform it out in measured amounts until it calculates the cell has reached a desired level. It then does what it can to keep monitoring the cell and trickle charges. When you buy top tier, you get...

    Yeah, being a custom size and chem, these cells will vary for the end user to a greater degree than ordinarily off-the-shelf batteries. It's a caveat with trying to get this much power out of something this small. It's largely why no one else will manage this, and with the state of obtaining...

    I don't think I ever started using it. I had the original design, which ended up being redesigned to lessen the prying force when removing it, the back-end is ... variably assembled, and vulnerable. I really like the new charger, but I am in the habbit of a gun slinger, having a heap of rounds...

    the tolerance of the voltmeter in the circuit. The Xtars are more accurate, the Nitecore I can see has an accuracy of ±0.03 (the readout also cannot exceed "4.20" so can't really be trusted). I have found the Xtars accuracy before, don't know if I can dig it up as quickly. But 0.03V isn't great...

    Slow charging will tend towards extra charge cycles as it's more forgiving on the cell, it's not a matter of safety rather one of longevity, though it depends on the specific chemistry and with the imminent fast charger, a lot more than 1A is getting piped in to achieve 15 min recharges [in my...

    That's the one, there is a newer model which I consider less ideal for GHB2's. The MC2+ will charge at 1A due to the length of the battery triggering this rate. The one you linked has a slower rate. It's not a huge deal, but I would expect to get a longer lifespan from slowly charging...

    A perfectly clean hopper will function best. The back-end threads are an easily accessible spot to clean, and will gradually build up gunk and grit - from both disassembly/handling and from current being transferred between the body and back-end. Grime will hinder this interface by increasing...

    There's definitely a number of funnels on the GH Accessories page from Delta 3D - flexible general multi-fit, GH only (normal and mini size), 2in1 GH+doobtube (normal and mini) (there's also the MFLB Finishing grinder funnel which could be printed to fit the GH upon request, and really the...

    I seem to recall someone telling how their hip flask funnel was a perfect fit. Not the easiest thing to find, but that would be a decent option. Especially for cleaning and longevity. 3D printed PLA is for prototyping IMO, though it can be annealed for a smoother finish with added strength and...

    Amazing :D The Sapphire dish really contrasts nicely with the Green flower. All in all, this is the set up to aspire too. I'm even loving that vintage 2019 WS. You've truly got all bases covered in the best of manners :cheers: PS I missed a key part of the question before, RE: unloading...
