I sent an email to Trevor. Now we wait for a response.The new review recently posted states that the production GH operates at 30w. Will someone here who has corresponded with Trevor ask him to clarify this, and also ask if it can be ordered with 45w instead if 30w is standard? Thanks!!!
Thank you!!!I sent an email to Trevor. Now we wait for a response.
yeah no problem.Thank you!!!
Many you have noticed that more Grasshoppers are making their ways out into the world.
With some of every part in-stock, we’re working tirelessly to get the final details sorted and shipping started. More parts are already on order to keep supply levels up.
It is HIGHLY DOUBTFUL that we on this FC thread have our finger on the pulse of what is truly going on with GH as far as distributions, private or public. I will personally take what they publicly report at face value, and trust that production is nearing distribution to the satisfaction of all contributors. JMO. I will be placing my order now for the TI with assorted accessories and batteries. The wait from inception until now has not been a problem at all for me, as I have seen this scenario too many times before, and in my estimation the GH is a very good bet. My wait until expected delivery may be a month or two or three and that's plenty fine with me. I am an adult who has ample control over his need for immediate gratification, and understand pretty damn well the business world. So, YMMV and to each his own heaven or poison.The 1st statement is a bit of a stretch .
I haven't noticed more GH getting out into the world .
Guestimating there's only 3 or 4 GH even made .
this...I was out this morning, and I didn't see one, so obviously the GH team is lying.
Yes! Of course 30w v 45w heater would be diff re battery life - but either would be more than acceptable in my estimation, e.g., many short sessions for one or two people. Extra batteries and/or a pocketable USB battery power pack solve all that big time. Come on folks, this is paradigm!Didn't Buzz say the heater is 45watts? And Trevor said the heater specs never changed?
Not sure about how it would effect performance, but it would have to change battery life I'd think.
Someone, perhaps you, posted a link to a bunch of cases on Etsy that would be awesome for the Grasshopper, and I went on there and found one immediately after I found the postI found the update encouraging. It sounds like they're already starting to build and ship the units. We've heard from someone on Reddit that Trevor said they are shipping a bunch next week. I didn't see anything negative in the report, aside from the fact Titanium Red won't be available. (Same on them for not researching what colors are possible to anodize Titanium before selling the colors!)
Having been inventing for the past year. I can understand and respect their desire to "get it right" before starting to ship "v1.0" to paying customers. Often I sit on my inventions for months, tweaking and testing the design before I'm happy enough to share with y'all.
There are inventions I could launch right now and sell, which would probably satisfy many of you. But it doesn't satisfy my desire for perfection, so I go back and modify the designs, and go through the whole process again.
Frustrating for consumers like us, but in the end, I think we'll be thrilled with it.
I've seen a lot of cool pen cases on Etsy. As soon as I get my tracking number, I'm going to place an order for a sweet leather one
This was a question I asked Trevor a while back. Here's the message, and what he saidThe new review recently posted states that the production GH operates at 30w. Will someone here who has corresponded with Trevor ask him to clarify this
Thank you! This is VERY GOOD NEWS!This was a question I asked Trevor a while back. Here's the message, and what he said
Me: Regarding BuzzDanklin's review of the Grasshopper he says his has a 45w heater. The Grasshoppervape.com website says that the vapes have a 30w heater. I'm concerned that there may be possible performance differences between his pre-production model's performance and the retail models...
Trevor: Sorry for the confusion! There is no difference between any of the heaters. This is just a discrepancy about what to say the wattage is. It is a peak 45 watt heater in all the Grasshoppers but it is average 30 watt. We have already talked to Buzz about this.

There is the problem right there...so many of us don't want to, or never have grown up completely. So we want it NOW!
Grown ups deal with the reality of things ...the rest gripe and bitch.So "grown-ups" don't want things now?

You are an FC veteran and have earned our unbridled respect a thousand times over - that's why I count on you to set a noble example.I know a LOT of grown ups that don't deal with the reality of things well at all, but then, "the reality of things" can be kind of a moving target, eh,?
Just look at the political landscape and one can get a clear picture of how hazy the "reality of things" really are.
oh the scary scary unknown lol... the chances of me upgrading once a review of a colored Ti pops up is not as low as it should beI don't like that none of the colored photos show the clip. I have a bad feeling the clips don't match. Did I read that somewhere once upon a time?

Nobody is perfect @lwien, but you and I can do MUCH better to set the right example. Don't ever sell yourself short!Oh, please don't do that Snappo. I disappoint myself way too often to be counted on setting any kind of noble example.
