    As others have said, that is a heat gun. HL designed their PCB, and initially they were hand picking/placing components, potentially outsourcing eventually. Later they purchased their own pick and place machine. This allows for rapid prototyping amongst other things. This picture is showing...

    I actually get my isopropyl from an electronics store, it's definitely the go to. It's a good place to source it as it's relatively pure and concentrated. But it can cause problems if care isn't taken

    Mine hasn't been flagged, so as long as you let it dry and don't risk short circuiting from impatience, it should be fine. I'm not too sure about the front end with compressed air, I assume it's safe if the heater cover is white, the older models were blue and I'd be careful blowing air into...

    I tried with a slow to heat up hopper and it did nothing to improve performance. It should be fairly safe to do with straight to blue, but compressed air is safer. If anyone tries it, make sure you let the alcohol evaporate for 12+ hours and use 99%

    I think it's as simple as water impacts the entropy of vaporisation for the heavier more hardy molecules (like cannabinoids). Basically the mass of water absorbs energy, and then that energy is converted into the expanding molecules of steam. When there's less water mass, then less energy is...

    at the point of making my comment I hadn't received the email, so that was all news to me, and my comment was meant to indicate that I was again missing info from the team about relevant affairs to me, info that was complained about being over a month late by @Gregori, who I replied to. So...

    Luckily they said it a month ago, so they should be done within another 2 months. It's annoying having to wait, but it's sounding promising. They say they're 3/4 through their overhaul which began a month ago, so another 2 weeks is hopefully all it takes for them to start shipping again. I...

    How Often Are You Changing The Water

    I clean as often as I can. Lately it’s been a bit less, but I find I can only get 3 days with cranberry extract in the water, which keeps the pieces much easier to clean. After that time the water is discoloured and may start growing bacteria. Now I’ve found a cheap source and use it over...

    I classically wrote a whole spiel, going off in a tangent. ^need that instant convection to deal with the bullshit! Lol, I think this line would have done the job "it's only a bad time being sans hopper because no one else can build anything like it". Building things takes time and is...

    What technique did you use to air-blast the battery chamber? Can of air? Compressor? Did you seal/plug it in, or just spray into it? Pretty cool that worked for you. Keeping these things clean, as HL say, is the best bet for keeping the things working. I rarely cleaned mine, and they often...

    Will see both you dudes in a month or two to share some opinions on the fresh robustness... In the mean time I think that's pretty good advice. I'll definitely be taking an objective look at my hoppers and noting their performance when they finally get here. I'm probably a month behind in the...

    Not much has changed in that there's been a constant time blow-out for them to do whatever it is they're doing. No one is forcing anyone to wait it out, there's nothing similar to opt for instead, so moving on is kind of a moot statement when it's a small hassle to have to service the things if...

    yeah, when my Sublimator stopped working, it was a much sadder time than being without a couple of hoppers. I still miss that hopper convenience, the flavour and the simple form factor. But the Milaana really does compete the best of any other product.

    There's some nice ones on Ozbongs mate. http://ozbongs.com.au/dhop-honey-collector-clear.html Little expensive but code OZBEWGZ will save you 15%. There's also similar options on DHgate for a bit less

    I also haven't received any word on my leather sleeve and I did just receive an email saying they were now available.. although I pre-ordered July 24th before they were removed from the box, I ended up with 3 hoppers on that order, so I guess each owner is owed one.. From HLs FAQ: I bought the...

    I have a couple pieces with a similar design, double uptake floating recycler. Great choice for a recycler to pair with higher air restriction vapes! Nice scoop

    DHGATE - Aaaaaackkkkk! :) Good/Bad Seller List

    It sure does, which is why I'd go for the SOL perc from CCG for an exosphere/egg piece. Yeah, that is what I was meaning. It was probably more common a year ago, but there used to be quite a few listings with a single picture ripped from jfriendly, so the actual product photo from an American...

    DHGATE - Aaaaaackkkkk! :) Good/Bad Seller List

    r/chinaglass might be able to help you out with fake brand names. They're typically painted not sandblasted on and will come at the cost of the seed of life perc. Not a good trade off IMO. You could ask CCG to sandblast either of the above pictured rigs with the othership logos and base...
