Can you imagine how in the dark we'd still be if not for Buzz?

I'm appreciative for Buzz's view of the GH. And he took a lot of flack from the skeptics too.

I understand skepticism is a positive thing to keep things honest, but sometimes I wish ppl would just let it go and carry forward instead of going on and on and on. I mean, I get it, I understand your concerns as I did the previous 9 consecutive posts that you have posted (exaggeration here), but I'd like to hear what other ppl or manufacturer's responses are to form my own opinion. It's disappointing to hear when another manufacturer or member has decided to go silent because of ppl who can't let things go. Again, don't get me wrong, hearing both positive/negative points of view are essential to forming my own view on things.

I just decided I'm gonna buy one of this. What are the main differences between TI and SS? 50$ is not much more expensive so if TI has any advantages I will like to know about them

Edit: Just found this, it seems like I'm going for TI

I really don't have enough testing in to say definitively, but I do think the Ti unit is worth it so far. Cosmetically I like the look of the non-color Ti more than the SS, and I like how it feels since its lighter. I also have gotten quite a few minor scratches on my SS unit just from standard use and the Ti should help with this (although I set it down on rocks and what not trying to take photos for everyone, which scratches it up faster)

My roommate and I fired up both units with full battery on the same temp (4) and we vaped 2 bowls in each unit all at the same time, and compared how hot the units were afterwards, the Ti was definitely less hot. I am not sure if it is from the Insulation change from my last unit, or the SS to Ti change, but the new unit *seems* to have a bit hotter vapor, which seems to translate to slightly denser clouds, and slightly quicker extraction.

@hippogriff My Ti unit is a 'v.9' but it has all the changes except for the charger and charger software tweaks. It *should* perform identical (minus charging) to the final production units.

A lot fewer pre-orders, too, no doubt.

I went on a t break in March when I thought I'd see my hopper for my birthday(4/20) then a couple more weeks from Trevor and now here we are in June. I was going to say fuck it and use my pax tonight after a real long week. I go to fire it up and it needs a charge. Damn it .

I have a feeling Grasshopper is going to shed some serious light on how well they honor their commitments very soon...

 

[Vapoholic420]

If anyone is interested, I was told by Trevor in an email that they should have that status tracker thing that is supposed to show u exactly when your order will ship, running up on their site by the 15th. So those of us that are still gonna be waiting a little bit can at least get a better idea of when we will receive our Grasshopper's.

*buzzes with anticipation* I am going to check their website multiple times every day now. Thank you haha

Haha. Sorry bro. I've been doing the same thing since he told me. I was just trying to spread the word. Definitely not trying to add anymore anticipation! Everyone's been thru enough! Lol.

I've missed the latest month and a half or so. Skimming every fifth page or so I get the feeling that a few people have got theirs? If so, that's exciting.

Just a couple pre-production models for review so far. The first production model that we know of that actually shipped so far is scheduled to be delivered 2moro. Hopefully we'll at least get a quick first impression review 2moro sometime since everyone has been waiting for reviews from more FC members for so long!

Ohhh, jumped back in at the right time.

 

[midgetsanchez]

When I get it you guys will be the first to know. Been waiting a long, long time for this...when I first heard about it this thing was still called the "Zenpen". Either way I'm entirely too excited!

 

[inuhuion]

IT'S HAPPENING!! *ron paul wave*

I guess I have to put my pitchfork away... ¬_¬

Could anyone with battery knowledge let me know if this charger would work?

[paytonpenn]

Why not just get a nitecore I4 at that price?

But yeah, looks like it should.

I have an RC shop here in the UK and get a lot of stuff from this company so I thought I might just stick one in with my next order. (I get it a bit cheaper than this). Would it do the job?

 

[Mister G]

I'm going to wait for the official charger but if they price gouge, I'm going to get the cheapie tenergy charger they recommended to the holiday backers, I don't think charge speed is as important for an external charger as I'll mostly charge overnight anyways, not sure if official charger will have other benefits so will wait and see.

Yep, it should be fine.

 

[Rizzalso]

Just checked the status of my order and it finally got updated with an estimated shipping date. February 2014!!!! Can't Wait! It's so close I can almost taste it....

Mine now says September!
