Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

[No-Wrinkle]

And I wouldn't discount getting weaned away from that nail, there are some exciting and practical alternatives starting to show up in the market. We have reports of early retirements for 'oil rigs'.

I'm curious what you mean by this. Care to elaborate? Using a nail can be quite the hassle but I haven't seen a more popular alternative to consuming concentrates. Albeit there may be more effective ways that I don't know about. I am all for cutting and bleeding edge technology.

I believe OF is referring to the Cera, and the inevitable progress of concentrate vapes to come.

Speaking of future technologies. Are there any upcoming projects by Delta9 or other vaporizer companies that will antiquate the omicron/persei lines? I suppose future proofing really shouldn't be a concern as long as it functions properly and serves its purpose.

Exactly so. And D9's current entry to that market, the 7.4 Volt Hercules, is also a contender here, or will be shortly. It's had a few problems in field use (not uncommon......) that are being addressed but in that process has shown some owners some very promising results.

Likewise Cera Oil carts are setting new standards right now, I think. Like the Hercules it has a few remaining issues as a system (the power supply part seems to have a connection issue being addressed right now), but as an oil delivery vape, the EO is a 'game changer' in the classic sense. Guys are literally putting their oil rigs away in favor of the easy to get, extremely potent hits available. And with very little loss overall. I'm thinking Hercules will eventually be in that class.

I have no trouble recommending the system you're thinking of. These high performance systems need serious supplies to make them happen. They are $300 solutions not $100 ones. Even though I own a Cera of amazing capacity, I use Omicron carts more times in a week.

That's part of the beauty of the Omicron/Persei as they are entirely modular and future upgrades are nearly guaranteed to be compatible. All you would need is a new top, or w/e the upgraded part may be. With the Persei, I think it's safe to say any future attachments should be compatible with with the current Persei. Both vapes are a solid base that Delta9 is going to continue innovating on. If you were to get an omicron/persei now, it will likely never go obsolete; as it should always be upgradeable.

Persei is the best for complete universal use. not all products work on omi, all work on persei

I suppose I don't understand because I have never tried a system of that calibre. Taking a dab is quite satisfying and I find it hard to believe that any portable vaporizer is able to contend. Of course I am not saying you are wrong just that, that is quite amazing. I wish I had the cash to buy something of that sort right now. Would you say sipping on an omicron is at all comparable to dabs?

That does make me feel better about my purchase. The last thing I want to do is waste any more hard earned money on a product that will not do what I need it for. The omicron light seems like it will fit what I need quite well.

Sorry if I am going a bit off topic here. You guys are brining up some interesting points those.

OF, you referenced something called "EO" what exactly is that you are speaking of?

If I remember correctly the hercules is for both flowers and concentrates, correct? I am not much interested in the use of flowers. I prefer concentrate. Are there any other pros of the hercules and would it fit on the light?

You'll need a Persei, or Omicron 2.5 HVD for the Hercules, the Omi-Light won't do it.

EO refers to Essential Oil, and is used by TET as a classification for one of the three Cera cores. You change out the cores depending on what material you're using with it.

As for a dab hit v.s. Omicron hit, it really depends on you. Some people say it compares, some would say it takes quite a few Omicron hits to come close. If it helps, you can compare them this way:

A dab takes .05-.1 on average for a hit. Takes only one for the next couple hours.
An Omicron goes through .1 in around 25-40 hits.

Hope that helps.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

agree w/ all the above, 'cept you want a persei for the herc. the hvd won't cut it

EDiT - until the core comes out

 

[OF]

It looks like while I was out enjoying lunch a couple of 'the usual suspects' have been supplying useful information.

I agree, Persei as a base had 'nail level' potential, but not V2. Too much power needed. This makes the system pretty pricey, I think the Omicron Light is probably the best call, it's very well suited to the Omicron carts.

I don't think you'll regret investing in the Omicron Light even if you decide later on to upgrade to a more serious system. IMO you'll still find plenty of uses for the Omicron. I know I do, there's one in my shirt pocket right now. Got some lovely Northern Lights oil in it, I think I'll do a quick test right now and make sure it hasn't spoiled or anything.......

I went to the delta9 website and the o-phos and omicron light are listed. I thought that the O-phos was the predecessor to the omicron light. Is the light a more updated version?

Yes, I think you want the OL. You can also get them from Planet Vape, an excellent outfit IMO, a long time supporter of these forums. In a fun way, shipments from Canada are faster and cheaper than from D9 in my state. At least that's the way it usually works out.

I don't think you'll really go far wrong with either model from either source.

I appreciate your advice and the advice of everyone else! It has been very helpful.

You're very welcome. Stick with it, soon it will be your turn to pass the useful information on to the new guys. They don't teach classes or write books about this good stuff (yet) you know. For now it's 'each one, teach one'.......

Best wishes.

All the recent talk of cartomizers inspired me to go grab some e-liquid and a CE4 Cartomizer...can't wait try it out. woo!

Let us know how it goes. Not trying to be rude but how does that relate to the omicron though? Are you going to use the omicron battery for the e-cig cart?

Entirely possible you know. D9 sells the CE4 for just that use. Comes with a thread adapter I think. Several of 'the guys' are using them, some for Pure Gold, some for juice.

Woops..guess I left that part out... OF is correct, I bought the CE4 Cartomizer with the thread adapter to use with my v2. Up until now I have only used the 2.4ohm carts with various waxes.

 

[druminfected]

I seen on the vaporpedia site it says that shatter may be difficult to prime. What's everyone experience with shatter and winterized oil? I would think that would be one of the best types to use besides pure gold being the number 1 choice it seems? Thanks for your input

Yes sir you are correct, the thread adapter comes with the ce4 cartomizer as well as the ego cartomizer as well

I've been working with shatter lately. Initially had some issues with clogging and priming, but i was filling the carts to .8+grams...

I've since found that the more conservative method of filling about .5 to .6 is the way to go. The initial prime after loading is smooth and have been pulling nice hits daily with no need to prime before every use.

I agree with this. Shatter seem to be more strict about your technique, but not impossible by any means. They just move slower, you have to think ahead more. For instance, if I don't get normal vapor out of the cart at first I let the heat 'soak into the load' for half a minute or so, and try again. Sometimes it takes a bit of preheating this way to get the goods flowing well enough to support normal hits, but it happens if you're patient and play a bit.

I found the cool down was most important. I try to be sure the cart and flue are free (shatter plug can be a hassle) but otherwise I don't pull a lot of cold air through like I would with oil. I let it cool down as soggy as possible so there's goods at the heater for next time. So far I've managed to keep it straight......

I'm looking to get a vape pen purely for concentrates on the go. Do u guys think the omicron light is the way to go? Also, how do those CE4 carts work with pure gold? And can they be used on the omicron light? Thanks!

Welcome to the forum!

The Omicron light will serve you well, the big difference between it and the Omicron/Persei is the warranty. All of them will drive a 2.4ohm cart to spec. CE4's word great with PG, ask Ataxian! The 2.5ohm CE4 will work on any 3.7v system.

Awesome! Thanks for the quick response, I am going to pull the trigger today. Are there any discounts for FC members at delta9vapes? I checked the discount thread and didnt see anything. BTW this community rocks!
