    For those inquiring about the new micro-doser and chamber insert, they're sending it for free if you purchase another accessory item at 50% off. However, their promo code isn't working for me. I've sent them a not on it. It seems to be an issue between them and their fulfillment service, as far...

    If you pack tight you can start at a lower temperature. When I do I start at the second smart path line but stay mostly in the third. Pack looser, and my pattern has been as you describe. The tight pack calls for a stir after a while, but that definitely picks it up. I also keep screen at the...

    Nine months ago I was told I'd have my RMA unit (which they'd had for 1.5 years) back in 60-90 days. I recently pushed it again and they said sometime next year. There's nothing behind anything they say.

    As I say, I'm grateful for your efforts and your honest appraisal. I'm not losing sleep about it, just sort of saddened. But I suppose the bottom line is that I hope good fortune comes to them and all who've participated in the project.

    I wish you really could help. You tried to help me, and I'm grateful, but HL got back to me to basically tell me to go scratch myself. They've had a broken hopper of mine for two years, and when I requested it back they said something along the lines of maybe getting to it next year. They also...

    If your smeller is quite sensitive and you put your nose right up to it, you can smell a trace near the mouthpiece, but nowhere else. In my opinion the smell factor for this device is definitely negligible to smell-free. If you know the Airvape X, that is far, far more fragrant when not in use...

    No apology necessary, K!! This is all in the spirit of exploration. My only experience with the Firefly is the first version, which I sort of enjoyed from time to time, but found incredibly problematic and ultimately gave it away. It had some outstanding characteristics and the design (my field)...

    Not sure where you're getting that the Airvape X is a convection device. It isn't. I do wish Apollo provided better technical information. While I appreciate your very careful explanation I think there is still some dispute about how to qualify the way the Legacy operates. I disagree, and...

    I may be wrong, but I suspect that if you explained this all to Apollo they'd send you a replacement. You shouldn't have to go through such machinations.

    I agree with you on all points (the $250 is a judgment call — having worked out on mine for a week I think the $250 price point is about right, but Airvape/Apollo still offers various promos if you go looking). In particular, I agree with your last point. Having been through the miserable...

    I tried a loose half-filling today and performance was outstanding. In fact, a half-full crucible at low temperature seems about ideal in most cases. I'm not sure the basket was ever necessary, but I'm still exploring. I should add that filling the bowl to the max allows you to keep the airpath...

    Trix, are you trying to use the basket? There's no way I've been able to get that to work, and I was mystified at first because I got nothing. If you're not trying to use the basket (which is problematic), then it's possible you have a bad unit. The device is stealthy on first hit, but that's...

    AirVape legacy

    I respectfully disagree with your assessment on this point. Though we've yet to see a teardown of this device, my take on why you get nothing when using the basket is that the seal is breached. OTOH, I have noted that without using the basket, when I kill the heat the vapor vanishes in under a...

    The more hours I spend with the Legacy, and the more I learn about the way it operates, the more enthusiastic I'm becoming. That should be encouraging to those still waiting for theirs. Things that I didn't get at first now appear to be very thoughtful and effective, and the device delivers well...

    For me it seals visibly. Door does not appear ajar. But I get nothing, so there is a breach of path somewhere.

    There are a few too many silicone gaskets imo, and they'll require attention at least once/week. The airpath intake will always be a bit less than perfect because of difficulty accessing it. Most of it is much easier. I think they've got a reasonably descriptive Youtube on it.

    Just received. My initial surprises — hope you'll find useful. "Airpath filter" appeared to be sort of rammed in, possibly misshapen. It was fine, but learned that removing/installing this piece is a clumsy pain. Second, although the micro-basket appeared to fit perfectly, I tried that first...

    Most purchasers should have received a mea culpa message around now. To those who were troubled by the delays and lack of response I'd urge patience. I dealt with the Grasshopper from its earliest crowd-funding days, and that debacle makes this look like NASA's finest moment by comparison...

    I've been away from here for a while (mainly because the GH experience is 90+% frustration), but I wonder if anyone can tell me if Hopper Labs has just stopped responding to older RMAs. I have had one of my units with them since late 2018. In January they sent me a weird note saying that I could...

    Has anyone heard any recent rumors on a release date? It's now mid-May. Patience is my middle name, but it never hurts to ask.
