D9 will honor all warranties and issues that may arise with Opho units. Vapornation is the authorized exclusive seller of the Ophos units to their wholesale accounts!
Ophos is still a D9 product!
* As with all D9 products you will need an original reciept for repairs and warranty service!!

Yes Ophos is Vapornation exclusive now. It is still serviced by us and we will handle all customer issues. Dont worry. Up Tech's got your back.
Omicron Light is our new line, looks different but acts like a O-Phos.

I never liked the Drip Tips for my Omicron/O-Phos.
I like the silicone e-cigarette tester condoms that come with the carts.
I like the length and I like the diameter of the air path, as it eliminates any oil spatter. (I like the flexibility too!)
I used to wash them in Iso to rejuvenate them as they get sticky from proximity to BHO after time.
I started buying them in bulk!

Omicron..... My story begins with me buying it at revolution health center and going home super exited about this vape due to the fact that i've recently started competing in amateur boxing and my smoking habits were getting in the way so what could be better then a vape that actually gets you medicated. As i get home with too much excitement i missed the big red letters that stated not to over heat the funnel with wax that i purchased with the vape. Thus parts of the wax start flowing from underneath my funnel out of my cartridge, also i forgot to mention that i missed the whole oxidizing part. as if this wasnt bad enough the wax cooled down and was clogging my brand new cartridge. After finding out about the oxidization process i accepted the fact that the cartridge was a goner and i heated it up and slowly emptied it of my gram of wax. After 30min of trying to unclog it i decide that the day is not over and i cannot give up, i went to my local smoke shop and bought another cartridge for 15$. This time i oxidized it filled it slowly but as my luck continues going south it wouldnt hit not even a little amount vapor would come out after holding it down for 10sec. After a while it slowly started to work but very faintly even after holding the button for 10sec and sucking VERY lightly. I did a bunch of research and found out about the priming step which once again i couldnt get to work.
After spending around 180$ and losing half a head of hair trying to get it to work i realized that my best bet was to ask the professionals YOU guys. My question is this, is it "weird" that my heating element only eliminates orange after about 4-5seconds? And from what i understood to prime it all i need to do is hold it down and slowly hit it like you would for a cigar, if so what am i doing wrong? Lastly the cartridge that i started with i decided to try to unclogg it by soking it in Rubbing alch did this ruin it? Can i still use it? Thank you Very much

Howdy DOV, sorry to meet you under a cloud and all, but welcome to the Forum and all the fun anyway?
I think we can get you going again, we've done so LOTS around here you know.
First off, forget 'oxidizing' or any dry burns at least for now. Revisit it later if you feel you must, but now it's more likely to make it worse than better. Don't 'check for the glow' either, this too is try burns. Do it too much and you're sucking around for a leaking cart when/if you get it going.
Also, stick with 2.4 Ohm carts until you master the system. 2.4s at 3.7 Volts only.
I think the root of your problem is loading, it's where most guys have troubles. Check the instructions on the D9 site carefully before your next attempt. The key is the heating of the center section before you heat the goods. Hold it at the bottom, don't let the part under your fingers get too hot (seals down there) but you want the center plenty hot so the load doesn't hit cold metal and stall. Once it stalls you're hard pressed to melt it again without overheating the seals.
Done right, you'll feel the hot oil drop down through your fingers.
Then, don't dally around, prime right away while it's still hot inside. Waxes are harder than oils in this part, you need the edge. Don't lean on the button more than about 3 seconds at a time until it's going well, this too is a dry burn. There are two heaters in there, one is slowly heating the oil charge (what we need to prime, flowing oil) the other is the main heater which can burn up if we push too hard before there's liquid there to cool it off. Give it say 5 seconds to cool off before another 3 second try. Once you start to get vapor, go for it. But until then slowly build heat in the load until it's flowing correctly.
Once you get the hang of it (think about what's going on) it's really pretty easy. Guys with a lot less going for them than you have sorted it out, you can too. IMO the rewards are worth the efforts.
Good luck with the boxing.

Hey THC or DubC, or to anybody that may have parts laying around?
How may one procure an omicron bottom cap? I've seen one for the persei SS tube on the D9 site for a while now, and would love to have another omi bottom cap. Reason is, since getting my 14500 tube, my omi is strictly 14500 powered now, and I use my 14650 setup with HVD for my ecig attys and tanks. I quickly got tired of switching out bottom caps constantly and having batteries rolling around everywhere as one may imagine. So I have been using a ball of foil
in the 14650 tube as a bottom cap for over a month now. It has held up fine, but come on, who wants foil in their state of the art equipment? If anybody has any ideas, shoot me a PM, I'd greatly appreciate it.
edit: BTW, sorry mods if this classifies for the classifieds section, I thought this was more appropriate here first.

Yes, I am asking about a second one. Since I use my 14500 tube for oils with the bottom cap all day everyday, I'd like to have a second to plug up my 14650 tube that I use for tanks and attys (currently with foil as a bottom cap).

Thanks for the advice man. I actually managed to "fix" it i guess, as i previously stated i had to melt out the wax from the first cartridge and after that i re melted it into the new cartridge and it looked around a gram maybe a bit less but when i weighed my cartridge today it was 7.9g so i looked it up and apparently that the empty weight of it so i simply went back to the club and picked up a gram of oil and put it in and now it works fine, accept the oil leaking back out of the cartridge 40min later. Should i throw away the first cartridge(Burnt one) its clogged and i cant seem to unclog it even after soaking it in Rubbing Alch or can i somehow unclog it? Also apparently i got the 2.5version and i wanted to know if there is a way to raise the volts for bigger hits? Also which cartridge is the best for bigger hits since apparently there is a differences? Thanks

You're welcome.
I'd definitely dump the cartridge.....even before the ISO......
My advice on carts remains the same, stick with 2.4s until you master them. Others will be glad to help you to bigger clouds through brute force at the expense of taste, but that's not my thing.

First please master the 2.4, then work your way down to the 1.5.

Alright i will just was curious if there was a difference

Well-Known Member
There absolutely is a difference (or I guess it wouldn't be much fun having different models if they weren't different in performance or appearance). Most any other combination of resistance and voltage will give you more power.....leading to the recommendation to learn it first.
Sure, there are lots of superbikes out there, but my advice is to learn to ride a smaller bike well and safely before you pick a monster out of the latest fan magazine and put your money (and skin) on the line.
IMO here it's dumb to try to 'buy bigger clouds'. Not that it's hasn't been tried a lot.
On the way to becoming friends with the 2.4 you'll pick up most of the insight you'll need to make a wise choice when the time comes.....which is why the advice is so commonly given and supported by so many who say 'I tried it the other way, it didn't work, I now recommend this'.

Once agian thank you, your inside knowledge is defiantly a plus side to this product and beats out any other form of customer support(in fact you should consider putting this form website on your instruction manual i spent alot of time looking for answers and there all here in one place = huge upside to the product).
The reason i originally asked the bigger clouds question was that it takes a good amount of hits for me to feel the pain go away thus i wanted to know if by getting bigger clouds would you get a more potent hit, i usually dont have much time in the morning before i need to go to school.

Honestly I get just as big of hits with my 2.4s when using proper technique. I have tried every cart and still go back to the 2.4 for its reliability and ease of use.
Proper technique with an AW battery will outperform the "hotter" carts any day IMO

Hey everyone. I have been reading this forum for quite a while but this is my first post and I must say it this forum has been super helpful. Well I purchased my first omicron v2 in December last year and I do love it! But recently I have been having trouble with my charger and it looks like it's not working anymore because my batteries aren't charging and the light doesn't turn red.
So I purchased the ultrafire charger from D9, but I'm not sure what the settings should be this for the 14650 batteries. So I know I should be set at 3.7v, but should it be set at 300 or 650? Also, does anyone have any tips on positioning the batteries inside the charger. The charger seems super finicky and almost needs to be placed in a diagonal position to be charged correctly. Anyone have helpful ideas?

either setting is fine, but the 300 will charge slower and make ur batts last longer
as for position, just lay them flat and give a little squeeze at the contact points, should be fine

First off, howdy, welcome to the Forum. Glad you're enjoying your Omicron.
To your question, the general rule for rate is 'charge in one or two hours' if possible. So either is OK, if you're doing IMR batteries I'd go with 650mA as long as it didn't get too hot.
Don't discount the idea your battery could be at end of life, this is really tough duty for these little guys, we beat 'em up a lot.
As to making better contact with batteries, I find with mine if I rotate the battery in the charger when the light doesn't come on, that generally fixes it. Also pushing them down some against the spring and letting the spring carry it up (gently) helps as well.
Also, if you like the stock 14650s you'll absolutely love IMR 14500s, lower capacity (600mAh) but something like a 20% boost in initial power and it stays hot longer. To do it you'll need the upgrade kit (comes with short tube and the needed battery) or the longer tail cap from the HV upgrade kit (or some other 15 mm spacer).
Good luck.
Wow! TRM hits a second one out of the park in the same day! Cool. The same day we get a new Pope no less, the first from 'the Americas'.
And we've still got hours to go......dare we think "hat trick'????
