Hopping in Washington
I was wondering, mine both cam back with flickering blue lights too. Now I know not to stress about it.
@MoltenTiger why you always have to show up and make my tip look so small?HL took a little longer to sort out warranty this time around, but both of mine are cleared for entry now, just have to send the bodies and back-ends as I requested.
I noticed their 'expect a reply' period has increased from 3-5 days to 3-7 business days. So a couple of days of extra waiting was required. Over the holiday period that's still good enough for me.
Might get them back in time for Christmas, never know. Keen to get them back whenever... Moments like these I'm always considering selling a unit and getting a Milaana or Splinter, but usually when the hoppers come back that idea's quickly pushed aside. We'll see what happens this time round.
Ed's TNT has made a couple of GH PFE extenders, I think it's a good way to go. Stylish and functional..
I'm sure he can do more

PS
Really love the new clicker on the hopper that is just a single action switch for off and on
No more double clicking to turn it on after it turns it self off
Supposed to be 18 seconds I believeHow long dose it take for it to turn itself off?, I just tried mine to see if It had this new button and it stayed on for a 1min 10sec before I Just turned it off myself.
Think mine is doing about 10-15 sec but yours sounds like a special caseHow long dose it take for it to turn itself off?, I just tried mine to see if It had this new button and it stayed on for a 1min 10sec before I Just turned it off myself.
Sounds more like the normSupposed to be 18 seconds I believe
Hey @Ed's TnT ... I'd definitely be interested in one of these! Thanks!HL took a little longer to sort out warranty this time around, but both of mine are cleared for entry now, just have to send the bodies and back-ends as I requested.

Really looks to be the perfect addition to the hopper.
And that is a really nice HT Ti piece there too!
You should post a pic of the full set and assembly when you get the chance
it really does!yep it looks the business, i got a nice surprise as that is the first image i have seen of it, got a five cm one and a ten cm one, not sure when hes going to ship them but will do a show and tell as soon as i get them.
cant wait
Does anyone have any experience similar to mine? I never had flashing blue on the pulls and the vapor is not what it was. I'm almost done with this vape even though I love it. I don't trust it and can't bring it out with me, which is the whole point of the Grasshopper - Easy quick discrete vaping.
All mine have flashed blue but noticed the new ones do it more
I have had my Ti GH for a year and a half and it has worked perfectly up until lately when it has definitely cooled off. I can still get vapor, just not the thick vapor I was getting at 4.25 on the temp dial.
Question: This is insane. Who the hell is able to draw for NINETY seconds? I have pretty big lungs but I don’t think I can draw for more than 30 second. I also got schooled up on this very topic about getting long steady draws and not “short and hard”, and “you have to draw faster than with other vapes” like it says.
Baron, I know you know what you're doing, so this is just to relate and maybe share that when I have this happening, I question the herb dryness and even its potency.
Interesting pick up!I have a GH since a couple of months but I have never heard of a V.2 Grasshopper. Vaposhop claims they store this new version out in Europe since November 2017. There’s no mention of it in HL official sire but I could have misread.
The question is, a friend of mine is debating if getting a GH.
The info page lists a lot of minor improvements over the first version.
Would you better get a SS refurbished GH for 129€ or a new V2 SS GH for 225€?
https://www.vaposhop.com/vaporizers/pen-vaporizers/grasshopper-vaporizer/
Warranty is one year for the refurbished v1 and 2 for the v2.
Registering the new unit on HL you get lifetime warranty, how does it applies to non Americans customers?
Third question:
I’m reading this from the HL Tips and Tricks page:
“
3. Take Short, Firm Draws
Other vapes require a slow and steady draw that lasts between 30 and 90 seconds. This type of draw is not ideal for the Grasshopper. The Grasshopper comes equipped with a very powerful 45-watt heater, a microcontroller to monitor temperature in real-time and a very short vapor path. Its design allows for quick and easy vaporization. Your draw should be faster than with other vapes and last 15-20 seconds. Near the end of your draw, click the device off to allow for all the vapor and warm air to be cleared from the chamber. ”

Which vapes? Of course the non existent vapes in which you draw for 90 seconds.
When I pulled the GH hard like it says I got wispy vapor and burning lips (and was debating if returning it or not). Maybe I have a GH on the cool side? I feel like I have to do the opposite: draw very slowly, slower than any other vape. Sipping like if it’s a MFLB. That way I get clouds.

Grasshopper
We now carry the latest and improved version of the Grasshopper vaporizer.
Grasshopper V2 Improvements
This is the latest and improved version of the Grasshopper vaporizer. It was released in Europe in November 2017 and features a large number of both small and bigger improvements in the internals for an even smoother experience. Improvements include:
- Gold plating on the electrical surfaces reducing the heating in the back and housing
- Grasshopper battery V2
- Better Backend Dial action (Smoother)
- The On/Off button now will work in either position, making use more intuitive
- Completely redesigned temperature sensor (fully eliminates red/blue flash error)
- New Heater design for 20% more power and much greater reliablity
- Decreased draw resistance
Any idea wtf this is about:Interesting pick up!
I believe this is referring simply to the most up-to-date Grasshopper design.
HL have constantly been adapting it to better deal with the many issues that occurred in the field.
It's been very evident that the prototyping of this device, from hobbyists at the time, was fairly limited.
So, over the course of backers units, to pre-order units and retail product, there have been a bunch of changes.
If I was to speculate, perhaps the timing of recent discussion of new warranty protocols
And this claim from vaposhop
Are they a little connected?
That list is pretty interesting, 20% more power, less draw resistance... not bad not bad.
We've seen reports on FC about the absence of the double-click power on thing with newer back-ends.
Perhaps Vaposhop just got new stock after some months of sitting on their old units? V2 to them.
BTW A second hand hopper will get updated with the new components as necessary, just like whoever's transcript is above is getting the good good.
Really the greatest thing is HL's apparent claim of much greater reliability from Nov '17, and how they're still around - which many doubted.
This makes me feel comfortable going in to my 5th device warranty in 2 years (per hopper no less), the first 3 were totally free mind. Back in the day of them sending out replacements.
I'd have no qualms about getting a second-hand hopper, as long as the warranty is considered in the asking price and is considered by the potential buyer.
I'm sitting next to a Sublimator and a VapCap M, so two dead hoppers is nothing much to deal with but it's something still
you know how if you leave the grasshopper, it normally shuts off by itself, leaving it in a 'standby' mode.Any idea wtf this is about:
"The On/Off button now will work in either position, making use more intuitive"
What 'either position" are they talking about?
Anybody know...or did I already know and that brain cell died! LOL
Ah....thank you. I actually don't think I have ever hit the time out on my GH.you know how if you leave the grasshopper, it normally shuts off by itself, leaving it in a 'standby' mode.
OG GH's you had to click it 'off' and then click it again 'on'. Two clicks.
New units don't do that, you just click it once and it will turn on.
