Good to hear of your solid recommendation Vitolo. I know you're a fan of the O-Phos and have setup others with it. Do you think one could manage with a bic and no scale? (I prefer less paraphernalia).

I think you're logic is good, and the timing is sure right.
Plan on half a gram at at time, yes it stores well until next time......if you leave it alone (which you won't....). I don't see a ten dollar cart good for an average of 3 grams (say $100 worth?) to be a big deal, others might.
I think you should rethink the torch and scale. Torch lighters can be cheap, I post the link to a $3 one (shipping included), it does make loading easier to control. Likewise, even a ten dollar scale that resolves .01 grams will be a godsend when it comes to deciding if it's time to fill or not.

Enjoy the little rascal. Just don't be surprised if it worms it's way into your usage?

Chimpy I would also suggest the filling tool as well.. I think u will be very happy with this product as your daily driver if your only using .3 flowers a day.. However once your tolerance goes up enough on the pen from my experience I have had to do longer sessions when at home, and would suggest as at that point, or before you get a pen getting an oil rig if you can have one at your place..and then leave your pen for while your ok the go
Edit: I suggest this to avoid longer sessions at home when you might be searching for a little more then when on the go, because less long sessions will make your carts last longer

Yeah I'm not surprised you've recommended a torch and scale and I don't doubt they will make the refilling sooo much easier. Wow free international shipping from that DX company. That takes care of part of my hesitation with additional paraphernalia - the cumulative cost of international shipping for various items.
And yeah I won't be surprised if it worms its way into my usage though I will try to thwart this to keep my tolerance down.

It's actually possible to use it wisely and not drive you're tolerance through the overhead, but it takes self restraint. You're on your own there, I've none to spare.
I bet if you poke around on DE you'll find a useful scale as well. You need to weigh to at least ten grams and need to resolve at least .01 steps IMO. That's an easy spec to meet actually. I find this one small and useful:
http://www.amazon.com/American-Weig...366474868&sr=8-2&keywords=matchbox+scale+0.01
for instance. No need to spend the big bucks, far better than guessing IMO.
Best wishes.

I believe it comes with the filling tool. Are you suggesting I get a spare?
I was considering an oil rig or a nail adapter for my FC bubbler, but I think I would prefer not - again less stuff. I know that dabbing gives really big hits and is preferred for many over pen vapes, but I want less stuff and to keep my tolerance from drifting upward. I'm hoping the Omi Light will still be able to medicate adequately. Again, I do intend to only use the concentrates when out.

It does come with a filling tool .
It's a funnel shape that fits on top of the cart .
I got mine 3 weeks ago from Planetvape .
Get the 5 combo cart pack , they'll let you mix , you can get 1.5 and 2.4 ohms .
Anything over $ 130 is free shipping . Good customer service .
This thing hits like a champ ....

I thought this was included. Great.
The combo cart pack would be nice, but not offered on the D9 site where I'll be buying from - great 420 deal.

I believe the code is already used up.
EDIT: Scratch that. It appears the servers were down for a bit but the code is still in effect!

Hmm, serves me right for deliberating. I probably can't afford the purchase now anyway, but you know I'll be kicking myself for paying full price later.

Hey FC ,
newbie problems ?
I think I may have " Fouled out " or " clogged " my cart .
When I go to power it on ,
I hear a sizzling/bubbling sound from the cart , but no vapor coming thru .
It def. heats up tho , I tried sticking a paper clip into the cart opening to clear it .
But with no success . Also when I removed the cart , there was a puddle of budda where
the threading is . I'd cleaned out that area and emptied the bad cart ( 1.5 ) into a good cart ( 2.4 )
Is the bad cart salvageable ? or kaput ?
and
What did I do wrong ?

Totsally! Ugh 2 opposing realities: current meagre funds vs current major discount. I can do it, but probably "shouldn't". These kind of decisions (2 forces squaring off) kill me. I'll probably take the passive approach and do nothing. Best to give up on my cause fellow fc'ers.
I'll post back after the sales done (which I understood to be 23:59 today - PST I assume according to the original UP TECH post).
Just kicked off my 420 with ABV brownie and vape-bonging SuperLemonHaze. So allsfine
Thanks folks.EDIT: Does anyone know yet whether the limited number of uses for the code is as in all together in the world? or per customer? - as Bob L asked.

So I took the plunge and bought a Omicron V2 from big als on telegraph.
Ive loaded it with canna nectar co2 oil from BPG and I have to say its nice. Anyone ive shared it with has been very impressed as well.
I do have one question though and please do not chastise me for asking this, as I think it's still a pertinent question;
Is the Omicron considered a 'safe' product. I have gone through this entire thread and beside a one sentence entry from the maker of this product, no one has come forth to say.."yes we know it's safe"
So yeah, I love this thing, for me, having something like this to travel with is nice, its more stealth than My SOLO (best product ever fwiw) and I want to keep using it, I just have a hard time with knowing im inhaling oil out of a electronic device and whatever unknowns are in such device.
Is the fiberglass/silica a safe product?
has THC scientific done any testing for off gasing??
anyway just thought id throw this out there to see what comes up, im hoping for a bunch of thoughtful experienced and friendly folks to chime in. I dont need any flak for bringing up an issue im sure many of us who own this product are interested in.
thanks

Just a follow-up to say that I didn't take the plunge. I decided that the $60 total of the 420 discount will seem quite small when I'm flush. D9 gets all my money down the road.
Good news guys, engineers are able to produce new heater for our Hercules style oil heater for Omicron.
It will take 45 days to produce the mold needed for us to make a prototype.

You should do what you think best.
If you think that includes selling something you think is unsafe to someone else, you should probably do that too although it seems at least a little questionable.
Safety is not a yes/no deal. It's highly subjective, you have to decide for yourself I think. We've been through this a lot, if you "have gone through this entire thread" as you say above you know this. There really isn't an answer you'll find useful I think unless you can tell me what safe is to start with.
I think nobody will be able to do what you ask and (as you requested above): "come forth to say.."yes we know it's safe"" for that reason.
I'd like to point out you put no urgency on this in your prior post:
Fault D9 or anyone you wish for not answering the unanswerable (IMO), but I think the responsibility for doing that is yours. As is the decision to sell something you consider unsafe to a fellow human. IMO this decision should have come before purchase?
