I've recently got my shipping confirmation. Wondered if any shroomerites have also been waiting almost 3 years for the Grasshopper vapouriser.

Why did you wait 3 years for a vape pen?

good question.
Well, i was a backer for the grasshopper crowd funding project. They originally said it would be ready after about 6 months but shit gets delayed, problems arise yada yada yada... 3 years later.
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/grasshopper-vaporizer#/
I have a desktop vape in the meantime but since it was only $100, i thought why not?
It has a lifetime guarantee which is comforting. The vape, from what i hear, has had problems in the first models that came out. Luckily I was at the end of the list so hopefully this means less likelihood of it being completely shit and blowing up in my face.
Despite getting the shipping confirmations, i still imagine myself as an old man when i finally receive it.

Why do people crowd fund businesses?
Do you get a percentage of the company in return or something? Or do they legitimately get donations and then become a profitable company and never pay anyone back?

yeh i know what you mean.
Time will tell. I'll report back here when i get it.
Some of the reviews are generally quite good tho. There are fewer and fewer problems with the tech and with the lifetime guarantee, that helps.

the latter unfortunately. no stake in the company or anything - just the chance to get a new product which may be awesome or may be shit.
People might have a good idea but not the money to make it happen. If people want that product, they support the project and in exchange get the product first.
I imagine different crowd funding sites work differently, i wouldnt know.
crowd sourcing in general isn't bad at all, but absolutely it doesnt seem like a fair exchange if you help a business start.
At least if this vape is good, it will be $100 compared to what is the competition? $200? $300? I dont know.

for sure i'll let you guys know. my tracking info says its left the US so its on the way at least.
Ive kinda given up expecting it now after waiting since 2013 so it should be a nice surprise.
the stealth of it is pretty good. i could probably get searched by cops and they might just think its a pen.

I am still interested in how it works out for you, could be really good

hey guys, just to let you know its finally arrived.
first impressions are pretty good. it seems very well made.
first hit i got from it was just beautiful. because its pure convection, you get less of that kind of weird vape smell like popcorn. It has some really flavourful hits. it packs quite a punch.
the heating up is maybe 2 seconds.
im glad they added a silicon mouth piece because it can get quite hot if youre using it a lot. I got the titanium one so it seems to cool down very fast.
charging time is good, like an hour or something. still working out how long that lasts.
so far, it seems really good. I just hope the battery lasts well. its got a usb charger that you can plug in while you toke so thats quite good. I'm half expecting it to break or something but only because some of the first batches going out have had problems and had to get replacements sent from the lab. the problems have been decreasing pretty quickly so my one seems quite reliable so far.
reviews aren't my forte so let me know if you want to know anything in particular.
