    I could tell you but then you know that whole killing thing because the mind wipe thing is garbage.

    Discontinued The Grasshopper

    I wonder if a lot of the problems people are having is because they are overtaxing the batteries I figure the batteries are only 8A at best and turning the GH on and leaving it run wide open they will get hot and will probably die quickly. Good link for new battery tech Thanks

    The Grasshopper Shipping Poll

    Well after 3 years plus I have finally taken the plunge and ordered a Grasshopper. Hopefully they have the supply problem fixed. Time will tell.

    The Grasshopper Shipping Poll

    IMHO The batteries are not "made" for the Grasshopper they are a standard thou not common size of lithium ion battery that they have a custom wrap put on. Based on size and capacity I think a 12650. No company the size of Hopper could have a custom battery made. The cost would be insane. As for...

    Batteries are made to work at a certain level if you make them work too hard they die.

    Discontinued The Grasshopper

    OK going to repost an old post re batteries. If the unit is working as stated the battery is too small to power this unit without problems. I don't know the actual power of the batteries so I am basing what it I say on common usage. "Anybody getting one should get a spare battery because with...

    There are wraps available at FT or Amazon etc. Look for ones made for AA & AAA size batteries as these are in between those sizes.. You can also get replacement disks I know FT has several sizes as I rewrap the larger batteries used for e-cigs. Check on Youtube as there are a number of videos...

    I will reply to you next week. Look for cases for 14650's (an odd size). I have both clamshells and test tube style cases that I bought 3/4 years ago both work well. Just don't carry the batteries "loose". I don't remember where I got them but I will check it out and let you know. One of the...

    There are a number of videos on Youtube showing you how to rewrap batteries. They are there for the nic vapers. The ones they show are for bigger 18mm batteries. FT sells different sizes of heatshrink wrappers made for batteries I haven't checked to see if they have ones that will fit these...

    I went to the GL site and set up an order for a stainless with 2 batteries just to check out shipping costs etc. I am in Canada and wanted to compare cost. With 2 batteries and shipping it came to about 215 USD but it also said shipping date changed to immediately. Do they actually have on hand...

    The Grasshopper

    But this isn't a 3000 mah 18650 with a 25A limit it's a 750mah 12650 with an 8A limit. A lot less power. I'm kind of guessing about the specs of their battery based on any similar ones I could find. They don't claim to have invented a new power source so my number should be somewhere in the...

    The Grasshopper

    Anybody getting one should get a spare battery because with them being an unusual size they will be hard to find. I still have a few questions regarding power/battery. I am guessing at some of this because I have seen limited specs on this product. They are saying 30 watt heater. In e-cigs this...

    Looking at their site the battery is a 3.7v Li-Ion battery. Probably a 12650 first 2 digits are diameter next 2 are height in mm. I'm not familiar with this size but the only ones I could find were 750mah. Even if this is a custom made battery there are limits to the amount of power based on...

    Various e-cig type Vaporizers

    MVP good device. Same company VV V3 smaller package same performance less life. Both of these allow pass thru vaping (vape and charge). If you want to move up to a device that takes replaceable batteries there is nothing special about the Lambo. Many devices of a similar nature out there. Some...

    The Grasshopper

    This is not a product this is an idea. My understanding of Indigogo is if you have an idea for a product or whatever you go to them and show them the idea. If they think it has merit for their site they will allow you to advertise your idea on their site. So you will make videos and pictures and...
