I'm a June 3rd preorder and mine shows May estimated delivery. New orders still showing May. @BuzzDanklin visit to hopperlabs got me hopeful that they are gearing up for mass shipment and not just stringing us along. Wishful thinking.
I wouldn't agree with the "extremely dubious" part, but in this case with hopper labs it's annoying for a few reasons. This is young company that has so many people anxiously waiting their unit for so long now. This isn't like adding an extra unit on apple or best buys website. And it's one...
I don't have my hopper yet but I suggested a few times they (or anyone) make, as an accessory, a longer mouthpiece lined with glass inside or something. Screwed on the threads or as an attachment maybe idk.
I just rewatched @BuzzDanklin infamous test video of the hopper he made with his friend. From that video the battery life seems pretty good to me. I counted..
4 hits on temp 3
4 hits on temp 4
4 hits on temp 5
2 hits on temp 5 (bubbler)
10 hits on temp 3.5
7 hits on temp 4.5
I feel like this...
The grasshopper seems IDEAL for the chair lift! Wish I had mine for this season, even though the winter weather this year was god awful on the east cost.
The thing that absolutely bothers me the most about this company is just the fact that they let backers add additional hopper units to their order upon address confirmation. I don't see how that's fair to the rest of us in line at all.
I don't know much about batteries, will it effect the quality/longevity of the battery if you charge a single battery with different methods (like charging a battery on the cable then when it's done charging in the nitecore charger)?
I thought of the same thing. Oh well, this last update sounded good, even though it was late. But hopefully @slcbdco is right about witnessing some hard work going on at HL.
