    At checkout it says "one or more items can not be shipped to this shipping address"

    I have moved since my last order, but the only difference I see is that I went from a P.O. box to a street address/apartment number.

    Just wanted to see if anybody could address this. Is this common?

    That's the bridge being pushed down by putting the full tool too far in the cart. It will continue to work but I wouldn't refill it.

    Dub is correct, also i would give it a refill, if it aint broke dont fix it, if you can get a small needle nose pliers, and pull it out about 1/16th of an inch, if you do to much its going to break. Be aware.



    You should then be able to confirm the name on the order form. If you can do this then its fine.

    well, i gotta say, all this time later after i was riding this thread, 6 months+ has passed by and still no non leaking omicron carts or hercules oil carts for omicron.
    kinda shocked the issues havent been resolved by now... especially considering the competition that has emerged. i still cant see me making the investment in new omicrons or 2.5 heads untill things are smoothed out... if they ever will be.
    slightly bummed... :(

    the 1701's work, We just have to fix the air flow issue that is now part of the design, Because we made some changes from the one from the video to production units we didnt see an issue with the air flow, but the changes have caused air flow to be restrictive and we are working on fixing it.

    Its one thing to take a ecig cart rebrand it then tell people that we designed it, and then sell it for 5 times the actual retail price, it is another to design a whole new cartridge. I will drive this company to the ground before i claim i designed something that i have not, or lie to my customers in any way shape or form.

    I figured it out. All I had to do was eliminate the last 4 digits in the long version zipcode. Order complete, thanks G.!!

    Side note: The 14500 tube can be used with the 2-14250 batteries, regular end cap and the HVD head.

    Hi All,
    Last week I was privileged to interview "G" The Guy Who Created It All. Here is a link.

    I have been a power user of the Omicron for over a year and I still learned a lot.
    Enjoy.

    Thank you for offering assistance
    Thank you, I seem to have gotten the Omicron working again, hopefully for good now. I had more time today and discovered I had mixed up some old carts with new carts. Didn't realize the difference until I took them apart. I loaded up a fresh cart with some admittedly better substance(light amber vs dark), and for about an hour now it has worked flawlessly. I seem to have hit every road bump along the way, but I think I've made it. I look forward to getting good use out of this device.

    The customer support and science behind the Omicron has been great, no knock against them and I can't wait to see this technology continue to develop

    Glad it is working follow the simple rules and it the cartridges will work for a long time.

    Always fill about .5 - .6 use the good stuff. Black looking things dont work that great

    Inhale right before you push the button and keep inhaling for a few seconds right after.

    Do a dry inhale of about 10 seconds in between hits to cool it down and then rinse repeat.

    Refill when it gets to about .2 of oil left.

    I was just wondering if anyone has tried using wax that was half taffy and half honeycomb and/or a fully taffy wax on the Omicron v2/HVD. If anyone has any experience with those specific types of wax, some info on them would be great!

    Yes, be very careful of 'taffy'. I ruined one cart that way and nearly a second one. Too much junk in with the good stuff, it fouled the cart wicks and they refused to feed.

    The second time I got smart and did the foil test first. When the stuff didn't melt quickly and flow easily before vaping cleanly away I knew not to put it in a new cart and waste the concentrate and a cart.

    Run a foil test, if it doesn't pass, pass on it.....

    Hey, OF, I was wondering about your foil test. D'you have any posts that go in to more detail about how you go about it?

    You put a small piece on foil and heat it from beneath the foil(freebase). If all you have left is foil you are good to fill, if you see anything left behind it will gunk up the insides and if nothing happens at all you need to find a new source for your meds.

    Hey guys. I picked up an omicron v2 from the LHS today for a great deal. Has 2.5ohm cartridge.

    Brought home and loaded around 0.1g of some shatter like qwiso/hexane oil. Was surprised with probably over 50 clouds, many of which were bong-massive. Crazy.

    Mine had no user manual, and the first one I found online was only about filling. So I thought I could clean out my cartridge with ISO.

    I first turned my cart upside down and put torch to the side bottom... Thinkng "this will help any extra oil escape so I can see whats left". Exactly what the manual says not to do. Of course the seal broke and something shot out the bottom, and I could see a white plastic seal.


    Is that cart toast? I pushed this metal pin back in and it looks the same as before, but I have to assume its destroyed. Thankfully they are cheap but what do you guys think? I have some other oils to try and would be great if my cart could be used again.

    Yeah, it's dead. I would suggest trashing it rather than loosing concentrate with it.

    You might want to review loading before your next adventure. .1 is not enough. You want a minimum of about .2 in there or the wicks run dry and all sorts of bad stuff follows. You should load a half a gram at first (not more, and not much less) and then top it up when it drops to .2 over when new.

    I've no doubt you got some vapor out, but nothing compared to what you'll get if you feed it right.

    Best wishes.

    I have been using bubble has in the herc 3.7 ..
    A special bubble hash prepared like sand... I am having great success with it.
    You need to use product that will shake and move about freely.

    I should elaborate on my answer. Sorry was in a rush this morning. Pressed wont vape all the way through. Powder will work great. Once it's pressed though the center won't vape. Atleast for me.

    The stuff I made works the same way with the cloud pen. It burns it not all the way if you mess with it though it will burn it. I went ahead and bought the hercules anyway to give it a shot.

    I will report my experience once it comes in. I've been looking for a vape pen that isn't messy when using oil and the clod is and also has to be played around with too much. The persei seems like it will use all the oil, no mess and at least the 7.4 is confirmed to vape anything. So I think I found what I needed. Thanks for the info. Any one else using the 3.7 for dry hash please chime in with your results.
