I don't fault them for doing the best they can — and I don't doubt that they are. I just wish that instead of "a few more weeks", they'd say "a few more weeks because we have X, Y, and Z left to do before we can start refurbishing and shipping out Hoppers."
It's a small change with a big...
@slcbdco, any chance you'd be willing to stop by to chat with them, possibly bringing up our concerns regarding transparency (and how increased transparency may bring about a more charitable attitude in their biggest fans)? :P
It's too bad that they aren't more transparent (even to the minimal level that they were during their crowdfunding). Regular updates detailing even the barest outline of what they're doing, where they're at, and the roughest timeline would win them a lot of goodwill.
I ordered an IR one with variable emissivity settings. This should be easy enough to set to work with the Solo, as the oven is just stainless steel, no?
Any chance anyone has an up-to-date temperature guide/chart (or can take their ol' probe and give it a prod in their Solo)? The extant ones are not very accurate for models post-m106. For example, I have the M1H2 batch, and there are no charts for that.
I'd also be willing to measure myself if...
I believe that the differentiator between your new parts and this time's new parts will be that they're now moving more processes in-house. Whether that will improve performance/lifespan remains to be seen, but I do think it is important to clarify that there is a difference.
Thanks. I checked a few out, and they illuminated the entire process. This looks like an awesome way to go — great production, minimal tooling or setup, and it looks like the resulting concentrate is liquidy enough to wick in a cartridge.
The butane requirement is the only stickler for me...
I watched a few videos about this model, and it looks like the results are both extremely minimal and very thick. I was looking for something that would produce rosin that would wick up in some sort of 510 cartridge. Would this be able to produce that? Would any rosin wick, or is it too thick?
