The Grasshopper

[syrupy]

It's a sad day when I'm the one pulling things back on topic.

Can anyone who's done TI before describe how long before the color starts to rub off?

Snappo: I am finnicky when it comes to aesthetics. Call it a flaw.

Myself, I actually kind of feel like them not matching is a bonus. I'll like that little bit of reflectiveness on it, and my memory is telling me that most of the pens I've seen that had metal clips were plain silver regardless of the color of the pen itself.

I think you're viewing things through an unclear lense. I opened his recent posts and most of them in the top ten I looked at were neutral. Some could be viewed as negative, but they were not angry, as your messages are being construed as.

Perception is opinion. Facts are evidence. Read his posts.

I was actually dreaming of the clips having different colors, and convincing Trevor to switch out clips on my order to make a two-tone hopper.

I can dream...

That would be awesome. I'd love a green one with a bronze clip.

Perception is only an opinion until more people believe it is true than false.

Is that a deal breaker??

If it were a "real" pen, I wouldn't necessarily expect the clip color to match the body.

In fact, I wouldn't necessarily expect the clip material to match the body material.

If you ask me, I think a silver on color contrast would actually look pretty sharp!

 

[Snappo]

Geezus!!!

 

[syrupy]

I would love if the GH came out today, before this thread supernovas...

 

[vapebuddy13]

I mean yeah facts are facts, but posts are what the author intends them to be, which no one else truly knows so... What you perceive a post to be is indeed your opinion. What you may see as negative could be meant just to state facts, or jokingly etc.

Why can't we all just be friends and smile and laugh and sing while we wait for our pretty GH?! #letsbefriends

I agree. I think the clip contrasting is more realistic.

I know this will seem ridiculous in this thread, but please try to stay on topic—which is not lwien or his negativity or anyone's perception of reality.

Thanks for your cooperation.

I, for one, am nearly 100% sure I'll be getting a Grasshopper of some kind. And I'm pretty sure I'll use it more than my Firefly (not hard to improve upon ZERO.)

I might even use it more frequently than my Solo. My major concern, right now, is that it will be too much trouble to keep it charged. And that it will be too hot.

I got a bubbler for the heat problem. But even having extra batteries won't solve the battery problem, because it looks like a PITA to swap them out.

Actually, I wish they could have made the compartments magnetically closing, rather than screwed on. That was one thing that I felt was done well on the Firefly.

I'm sure they thought about it, and there was probably valid reasons why it wasn't practical. Bummer.

Not an engineer or technical knowhow person of any kind, but perhaps magnets would have interfered with the electric signals that are being conducted through the body that let the parts communicate?

What makes it seem to tuff to change the batteries? seems to me you just unscrew the top and swap them...

I am so pumped, I love my Haze but I'm not a very active user and and kinda light weight so the on demand heat and hits when I want them will be perfect... that plus it's size... I don't think I could picture a better suited vape

 

[EdE80]

Does anyone remember what Trevor said about upgrading to the Ti from SS? More specifically, a colored Ti? I know at one point he said it wouldn't cause delay, but I'm not sure if that covered SS to the andonizedTi as well as plain Ti.. Also, everyone needs to take a long deep breath, and think of the boxes, man

I'm lazy. I fully admit it. Besides which, if one is frequently screwing and unscrewing something, there is the potential to jam the threads. Even strip it. If that happened to my pen, I'd toss it. No big deal.

But, most pens don't cost $135+.

 

[vapebuddy13]

@EdE80 not sure, I would hope it covers colored as well but I could see it not... Im thinking about emailing and asking but I might wait closer bc I don't wanna swap until I hear from someone who receives a Ti unit (I'm sure they are just as good/better but have only had SS out and about so being cautious)

@Mrbinky I guess, but the GH doesn't seem to be meant as an all day vape where you won't have a chance to charge it... so unless you plan on making it your main vape and you plan on using it often all day without access to some sort of charging, I couldn't imagine it being that big of an issue. + with an hr charge time? I could charge it to like 90% on my drive to/from work

 

[VegNVape]

Indeed!

It makes this seem so appropriate . . .

. . . Or perhaps 'appropriate' wasn't quite the right word

Sorry folks!

Blue Ti!

I can almost hear them clicking . . . .

Oh no! ...a screw pen ...!!!

I decided to send him an email asking! I'll share his response as soon as I get one

When I upgraded SS to color Ti he assured me it would not affect my place in line and in fact my order number remained the same.

And yes let's keep our priorities straight and not lose sight of what's important, such as...
little boxes.

I know one of the GH guys posted here at the start of this thread. Does anyone know why they stopped? It'd be awesome if Trevor started answering questions on the forum again. Not necessarily every question, but anything coming directly from the "horse's mouth" would be so appreciated by me.

It'd also decrease the amount of emails they receive asking the same questions over and over again.

Not a chance of that. And I don't blame them.

I upgraded from a SS to a Ti and then again to color on pre-order and asked each time if it would cause an additional delay (i.e. bump my spot in line) and the answer was no both times. That was several weeks ago so reserve that the situation may have changed.
