I have a HDPE moodhoop and it's a little chunky and the weight is a tad noticeable where the battery is but it's really not that bad and doesn't bother me. I still love my hoop but I have a polypro from hoops of Creation and when I used that and go to my mood hoop the weight difference is definitely different. I am not sure of how mood hoops polypro hoops are but I have a friend that has both kinds from them and she says the polypro isn't much lighter at all. Hope that helps!

Yeah polypro isn't actually lighter than HDPE.

I have the same side in lotus hoop. and it's polypro... and yes you're 100% correct about the bulky connector. Its not too noticable but I can catch my rings on it sometimes. It's only a minor nuisance, but its nice becuase it makes the dark spot almost non-exsistant. good hoops, just avoid doing hard impact reversals, as my last tube size 5/8 snapped when I did a reversal. The 3/4 OD polypro feels much better.

I have a 33 in polypro Sunrise moodhoop with 3/4 inch tubing. Its got thr bulky connector part but its never bothered me. Its not noticable while hooping. And its fairly light, nothing like my polypro. Before I got my hoop in a friend came to town and she had a slightly bigger hoop with smaller tubing. It was nice but seemed to glitch out with hard hiys. Im not sure how old the hoop is though or its history.
