I hope George has some concentrate pads or some solution in our future. All those titanium shavings and all...
Yes please!

What does @VapCap say to this Omni failure? Misconstruction? Lack in proceeding?
AFAIR regarding Nona and DynaStash George told a few days ago that they intend to make the shash holes wider to hold the Nona too?
Yes, I believe this is what's happening. Rather than pushing the condenser closer to the tip (therby restricting airflow and increasing vapor density, right?), we're actually doing the opposite - pulling the condenser away from the tip and possibly losing vapor inside the body. I don't see how any amount of breaking-in will solve this problem as the condenser simply continues to rotate - not lenghten and shorten- inside the body with any twist of the mouthpice, and too much couter-clockwise twisting and pulling will simply detach the mouthpiece. Not a dealbreaker because I reckon like @Squiby suggests I'll set it somewhere in the middle, shove it in and leave it at that, but I must say I'm slightly disappointed with this reduced functionality.I was having a bit of trouble with mine as well. It seems when I put it in there slightly unscrewed, and then try to adjust counter clockwise, I'm actually just unscrewing the mouthpiece from the condenser?

I'm not sure what to tell you, other than mine had the same exact problem when I first got it. Weather the threads softened a bit, or what exactly happened I'm not sure, but after screwing and unscrewing a bunch, it works beautifully now. Best of luck, I hope you get it sorted outI don't see how any amount of breaking-in will solve this problem as the condenser simply continues to rotate - not lenghten and shorten- inside the body with any twist of the mouthpice, and too much couter-clockwise twisting and pulling will simply detach the mouthpiece.
This gives me great hope and I shall have fun playing with it!I'm not sure what to tell you, other than mine had the same exact problem when I first got it.

What's engraved on the nonavong?
If it doesn't resolve, I'm sure George can help you. But I love your attitude!This gives me great hope and I shall have fun playing with it!
Yes. two o-rings on mouthpiece, one on condenser.I couldn't find any pictures of just the mouthpiece to see if mine is different. Does yours just have the two o-rings? I'll get a photo up of mine soon. But the pics I've seen show three o-rings. Mine has two.
the 14mm BonG should fit into the Dynastash. You can contact @VapCap on their website contact page for a resolution.That's what thought, too. I was watching a video on the Nona and he said it would fit?
Here are some pics comparing the condenser and mp set up between the regular condenser and the Omni.I couldn't find any pictures of just the mouthpiece to see if mine is different. Does yours just have the two o-rings?
I believe this is correct, as the Omni I got a couple of weeks ago has the same setup as Ricardo, two rings on the mouthpiece, and one on the condenser.It must have happened with the release of the new softer mp profile in around January. Is that right?
Morning all. I have a problem with my new OmniVap. The theory around the adjustable mouthpiece (as I understand it) is that by rotating it anti-clockwise the condenser is pushed further up the body towards the tip but mine doesnt seem to be firmly gripped inside the body. The result is that when I twist the mouthpiece the whole condenser unit rotates but doesn't move inwards. Worse, if I twist anti-clockwise and pull gently I am actually pulling the condenser out and further away from the tip. Does that make sense? Any tips would be much appreciated.
I had a lot of trouble figuring out my Omni at first. Hopefully I can help. It sounds like your units are working fine. What is happening is that if the condenser is fully open, in its shortest position, you need to twist counterclockwise to reduce the flow. Mine shipped with a fully open airflow, so twisting clockwise would do nothing.I was having a bit of trouble with mine as well. It seems when I put it in there slightly unscrewed, and then try to adjust counter clockwise, I'm actually just unscrewing the mouthpiece from the condenser?
@Vapor_Eyes Thanks. The method you describe is as recommended by DynaVap and everyone on here - it's how it should work but something's not right with mine because the condenser doesn't shorten or lengthen inside the body - it just turns with the mouthpiece. It must not be firmly enough anchored...
Gotta love those visual aids!During my first cleaning session I managed to get the nut on the condenser with the male threads to slide further down the condenser.
Maybe you've bust a nut? If it is loose and slipping when you are turning the MP then that is not normal behaviour.
Gotta love those visual aids!
It sounds like the inner diameter of your body could be too large. If you have any organic hemp or cotton you could try wrapping some around the two o-rings closest to the mouthpiece. That might add enough friction to make it work.@Vapor_Eyes Thanks.

And we love your diagrams too!I love my diagrams almost as much as I love my OmniVap.
AwesomeGreetings,
We have been busy in the VapLab. The main focus had been actively working on trying to find ways to make our operation more efficient as we try to get ready for one of our favorite months. April..
And with this comes an attempt at more organization.
In the process I came across this relic.
This was one of the first jigs I made. It is a multifunction unit with different slidable modules that slide in the large blue groove.
This little rig cut many a cap in its day as well as grooving the original glass and then metal condensers. It has been on vacation since the arrival of the laser. Oh boy do we like lasers. The accuracy is a game changer.
There sure is a difference between the laser cut caps and the previous generation. I wonder if these early units will be collector items some day.
Like this one on this first generation Blackwood Ti Woody.
I wonder if this is the one injured in a truck accident?
On another note, I received an email from @Gardenerjeff about a survey, and he thought it was sad that the VapCap had only 2 votes. I sent Bud one of my original glass units way back before the indieNogo campaign. I wonder if he would like to try a newer version.

Also, Ben, our videographer took some videos with @Arielle.Dynavap. They are working on some short FAQ videos. I hope these will make it easier to understand how these Vaps work.
Oh and @VanCough we do hope to get engraved caps back on the site in April. And if all goes well, some Ti mouthpieces too.
I hope to have the first of these up soon.
All in all, a great week. Very much looking forward to next week as it is the weekend.
I can't wait to get back to work! I might just have to go in Saturday or Sunday, maybe both.
Thank you everyone for helping me love my job!
Cheers,
George
