UPDATED My visit with Judah at OHM.
I have some additional updates to add to my original post. The updated information is all in italics. I decided to update after reading the boards and some of the responses. I did post pictures earlier but then thought better of it and had Admin take them down at my request. If you want to see a picture of me with the prototype, you can PM me, but don't forget to add your personal e-mail address. I can't PM back. I DO NOT want my picture shared! Soon enough, I'm sure RFMK will have pictures that can be shared.
Shipment
The shipment is supposed to arrive tomorrow from DHL. The Cannacig is coming from Hong Kong. Once everything arrives, Judah and his team will be responsible for packaging everything and placing on their shelves. Judah pointed out a clear spot on the shelf waiting for....?
The shipment needs to clear customs. Judah didn't seem to think it would be a problem because there is no THC, CBD, or Nicotine juice loaded in the Cannacigs. That makes it easier when dealing with customs. He did not directly say they had cleared customs, and I didn't ask, sorry.
Number of units
Judah would not and could not specify how many units. Tom and RFMK are the only ones that can provide that information.
Demand
The demand is strong. Judah said he has many contacts in the cannabis sector and they're getting requests from the website vinhaler.com from people and places he hasn't even heard of.
Pricing
Judah would not disclose the pricing. That has to come from RFMK.
There was another vaporizer he had, I forget the name but I think it was called e-joint? He said that one sells for $70. It came in a cheap box, and inside was a plastic bag with a small usb charger and the e-joint. Hopefully the packaging of the Cannacig will be better.
Pocket Puffer and Power Puffer
These two newer products are Judah's babies. This is where there is mucho potential. These can be sold and shipped anywhere as they will basically just be the shell.
The Cannacig
The technology could not be discussed for proprietary reasons. The Cannacig can only be sold through dispensaries. Initially OHM's new delivery service will be delivering Cannacig's WITH the PIRD to dispensaries in CA. Once the PIRD process is patented, Cannacig's can be shipped without the PIRD, THC, CBD, other ways, and other dispensaries can license the process and do it on site if they want to do it exactly how OHM does it.
The PIRD can't be patented, but the process can said Judah.
I went through a lot just to get my mj card today with the partial intention of getting a Cannacig and using it to assist in managing my chronic back pain from a sports injury. That is the appeal to me, no harmful effects from the inhalation of smoke and all the carcinogens. However, I did not try the prototype Cannacig because I am not a pot smoker and I did not know what the effects would be on me. Despite my most excellent driving skills, I didn't want to risk anything. But Judah was "vaping" on it while I was there.
Celebs
Judah has an entertainment background and has a couple celebrity friends and at least one A lister on board for the special edition models. The A lister is someone on television whose character smokes weed. He would not disclose the celebrity despite several attempts on my part. BUT, he did say it was NOT Snoop...sorry for those who were hopeful it would be him...
The team
Judah is definitely a driving force on the front line in dealing with distribution. He's going to do everything he can to make this a huge success!
Tom's new position as CEO is exactly the way it was discussed in the shareholder update. He has a total feel and sense for business.
Mike is the creative mind who knows the technical stuff behind the design.
Funding
I asked Judah if he knew anything about this. He said that's Tom's business and that only he could verify anything.
Another customer in the store
There was a regular at OHM hanging at the hash bar, or whatever they call it. He knew of the Cannacig and has tried it too. He thought it was great for a few obvious reasons as he pointed to several big glass bongs that you just couldn't use openly walking down Hollywood Blvd. or out in public without looking ridiculous. I got the point.
OHM Dispensary surroundings
The hash bar was cool, at least for my first visit to a dispensary. They have a loung area and game room kind of area. When I signed in at the front (of course had to fill out forms like you would on your first doctors visit) I saw about 25 names signed in before and it was about 1:00 ish. They opened at 10:00 am. I'm sure it gets much busier after hours, as in when people are done with work. After all today was a Wednesday. They also have happy hour specials. Basically what I'm saying is that there are probably way more people that visit. It was nice to see they already had a couple dozen visitors though.
My overall conclusion
Judah was very nice and answered some of my direct questions and talked openly about a lot of what I've just shared. BUT, he was careful not to answer some of my direct questions that need to be addressed by RFMK, not him. I've tried to cover as much as I can remember, but I was there for well over an hour and can't possibly notate every single word.
Final word
I am just an ordinary person who decided to make an investment. I happen to live close enough to OHM and decided to take a trip over now that I have my mj card. Anyone else could have done the same thing and asked different questions, and perceived things any number of ways. I am not recommending a buy or a sell, just sharing with everyone my experience.
One last thing Judah and I kind of laughed about was the fact that he reads the boards when he can. He has been tempted to respond because certain things and words stated get taken way out of context. He mentioned writing a post one time stating that if only people knew what he knew etc...Of course when you have the complete picture, or most of it like Judah, it could be funny seeing and or reading what other people are saying. The reason I bring this up is because some of the posts I've read take some of what I've shared out of context. No worries, understandable. But I kind of understand what he's saying now.
Go RFMK!
