Grasshopper Backer
Do some people's hoppers' back ends not get warm at all? I feel like mine didn't get warm in the slightest at first, but now, by the clip ring, it *almost* gets hot... It works as it should...vaporizes well. I. A little nervous about the clip's collar becoming quite warm after just a pull or two set at around 2.5.
Is this abnormal?
Also, I think this got buried: you know how you can "trick" the hopper into thinking it's about to charge by touching the collar and click button simultaneously to a piece of metal? Well, when I accidentally did this I was able to see the short, or electrical arc, inside the backend, through the temp notches.
Anyone else notice the visible arc that comes with that metal contact?
This happens on the charger, it's normal. If you listen, both the metal and the USB transformer buzz as well.
Like your backend, I ***think*** it is how you screw in the backend, too tight or too loose and I notice that the backend will heat up very very quickly. However, just by unscrewing and rescrewing it doesn't happen again. Something to do with the contact points probably, I wouldn't worry about it as long as it's snug.
As for the fake start... I haven't investigated enough to say.
