Discontinued The Grasshopper

[Hopper Labs]

And... @Hopper Labs

Will original backers that ordered a Ti Case ever see that incarnation, or will those customers receive the SS case when available?

The Ti case might come after the SS case but you would, of course, be able to switch to SS at the time those come out. The oils Front-end, not sure about the timeline on that. It is on the radar but there are other things coming first. We are happy to exchange any indigogo contributions for store credit towards other available items.

My new ss and extra batteries arrived today! The build quality and elegance of this vape continues to impress me. And works like a charm!

I did a basic cleaning and battery charge, and away we go!!! So far, I’m setting it slightly under 3 and that seems just fine. I’m looking forward to a comparison with my og ss.

So add me to the list of happy owners of the latest hoppers!

 

[Hopper Labs]

But even that little sticker proves the point of my previous post, I would have never expected a sticker if not for your website:

Every Grasshopper is assembled in USA and carries an industry leading Lifetime Warranty. Each Grasshopper includes: Grasshopper Vaporizer, Charger, Battery, Sticker and Owner's Manual.

Now fixed on product pages.

ERP, CRM - it’s the same difference and I’ve worked on them all and then some (and still do). The system is only as good as the nature by which data is collected - still largely by humans. HL doesn’t have many bodies so their date tracking is behind. It’s happened with me before with them. They need to improve in this regard.

Time to wake and bake with my Hopper...

EDIT: it can’t be overstated how I again greatly enjoy my Hopper after its return from RMA. It hits well and hard, a joy to use.

Thanks @Hopper Labs for the clarity on the questions I raised. That is a much better answer than the last time that inquiry was made. Thanks for being here!

@Ratchett makes good shit

@Ratchett makes good shit

I just got notification that a package of good shit straight from @Ratchett has landed! I already have a feeling that this is only the first order, looking around Delta3D Studios it hit me just how much good shit the man makes.

 

[lookhigh]

So i am slightly more interested in the hopper again.
Are they reliable now... that is the question?
How is the shipping to the EU?

 

[Mr Mellish]

So, the Grasshopper moves in mysterious ways...

This morning, my order was updated to say "Shipped." An hour later, I get a shipping notice and the tracking info shows delivery today. Thanks, @Hopper Labs, I'll take that (or, for you old people..."I'd buy that for a dollar!")

Yeah sorry about the delayed tracking. The system we use to interface with USPS to get tracking can be slow (days slow) so then the tracking sometimes does not get sent out right away. We are working on a fix for that.

 

[Mr. Me2]

Update on my new ss. Works like a champ! ABV much darker than my og, and that’s at about 2.8.

I moved the temp down to 2.5. Flavor improves and abv not as dark, as expected.

Testing for science continues...

Your selflessness should inspire us all.

Your selflessness should inspire us all.

You’ll be joining the testing center shortly. I’m excited for you!

I feel dumb
Found battery email in junk folder
Even I don't like looking at my junk

You know how I feel dumb? Today I found two capsules for the FW3 and FW4 that I didn't remember I had. However, I still can't find the SS PFE that I ordered in 2017 and I DO REMEMBER having.

Old age is hell, boys and girls.

 

[fishyjeff]

Does it make any sense, or is there any benefit in getting a Ti PFE with a SS Hopper

 

[Mr Mellish]

Well, after all my bitching and moaning, the new Dark Grey Ti arrived! I am feeling Chris Matthews levels of leg tingling in anticipation of trying the latest and greatest. If the planets align, perhaps that will be tonight.

Is it too many levels of total wuss-dom to use the silicone mouthpiece WITH the PFE?

 

[Mr. Me2]

Uhhh... yes.

But don’t forget to give your new baby a cleaning before use. I was a little surprised my mouthpiece showed some dirt after a Q-Tip iso wipe. So I gave it a soak. And used a blu tac type on the threads, and gave inside the chamber a wipe (which looked clean). Better safe than sorry. It gave me something to do while I waited for the batteries to top off.

Have fun!!!

 

[Mr Mellish]

Awww, damn, I never think about that cleaning stuff (although I did think to use a Q-Tip to clean my SS herb chamber this morning and the first three tips were black as my soul...ick). It's already loaded and waiting for the magic moment. If I get sick and die, blame someone other than me.

My battery topped off faster than Mrs. Mellish can say, "Not tonight, dear." so what is a poor fella to do?

 

[Vaporific]

Start off with low temps if you’re not using the silicone tip - to see how your lips (and throat) will take it. I don’t own a PFE and seldom use my silicone tip (one less thing to lose) but I may start using it a bit more with a small pipe or Hydrotube for cooling (and for something different for a change).

Memory is indeed the first to go...

 

[Mr Mellish]

Less than 2 seconds to get to 3.4. Wow. Never managed to get beyond that setting tonight. Forgot the punch this thing delivers.

 

[pxl_jockey]

Indeed @Mr Mellish that is the honest truth. I’ve been beyond thrilled with my hopper’s speed to temp, thorough extraction and even the pulls per battery hasn’t been bad, certainly more than what I was expecting. I’ve been trying not to be too big of a cheerleader for fear of making other members mad about their experience. The main thing I can’t get over is the grasshopper’s “vape signature”, or whatever you wanna call it, is freaking incredible. Last night in just a couple minutes, my hopper gave me a serious attitude adjustment and left me shaking my head in disbelief.

Well ... still have my Ti and SS hopped that I’ve spent hundreds of dollars in shipping on for warranty service that accomplished nothing ... but maybe it’s worth throwing another $25 in shipping at it ... maybe worth trying a warranty claim again after them sitting in a drawer unused for 1-2 years (I’ve lost track of the time ... )

Tough call to make and it depends on your risk and monetary comfort level. I feel sorry for you and others who’ve done the back-and-forth thing several times, possibly overseas too, without much success. Also the RMA wait is still fairly long but that likely doesn’t matter to you at this point. Again, tough call and depending if you have other vapes it may help you make a decision.

If I had a stable of vapes (which I don’t, just a few), I’d likely give up if money and hassle were an issue. If not, it’s short money now and potentially a decent wait for RMA. I can tell you my year-long RMA wait was worth it but I didn’t spend tons of money or attempts shipping back-and-forth - just once.

And yes, my pre-order Ti continues to work well. I’m thankful the new batts arrived last week as my remaining previous ones are almost dead.

Please send them in. Open a warranty request and also send me a PM with your Grasshopper account email. We will get them working great for you.
