Discontinued Omicron Vaporizer for oils

[Bob Loblaw]

got my SS Tank for e-juice today. seems similar in construction to an ego-w, only made of stainless. when assembled, if you look down the barrel, minus the mouthpiece, you see the same type of filament/element that you do lookin' down an ego-w cart. as the carts are replaceable i went ahead and tried droppin' a small dab w/ a toothpick to see if it would work in that way. it does. fair warning, this is not what it was designed for. also, i filled it w/ e-juice b4 i dropped the dab. to make sure all systems were wet. i used the 5 ohm cart on 6v SS Persei. it also comes w/ 1.5 and 3 ohm carts.

I just think a load as you go style cart would be extremely beneficial for those that don't want to commit to melting down half a gram at a time. Hence, the reason I was so stoked on the idea of a Nail Cart with a built in dabber. Definitely disappointed right now and I really hope that the Hercules carts work with the HVD, otherwise I may as well sell my v2 and HD and purchase a Persei (which isn't that stealth and I don't have enough bread left for one at the moment). So far, the Ego-W's are the closest thing to a load as you go option, but we all know that they are not designed for use with essential oils (still works, though!)

Thank you for the disclaimer. How does the 5 ohm work on 6v? for ejuice people use the 3 ohm on it. Also how does construction of the design feel? Air flow?

I do personally think we are a cut if not more above the revolutionary pen vaporizer market, its more of a we want to be unique type.

Boy, I sure hope you don't think you're at all alone in that opinion? I mean you've had your nose to the grindstone and all, but if in doubt, smell them roses.... There's a whole lot of us around here who aren't at all fooled by the Revolutionary (homemade) Pen Vaporizer 'makers'. I'd say on average it's very hard to compare Omicron with what they've 'developed', they've so little in common. Two different classes. One has a long history of solid performance with isolated cases of problems easily corrected. The other has a spotty history of occasional fair performance against a background of disappointment. Those owners often get the chance to discover, first hand, the 'hidden value' of good Customer Service if only by running up against a lack of it. One of those 'don't miss the water until the well runs dry' things.

For a fun read on this very point, try this:

Anyway, the idea was not to let them drag you down to their level. Not that you would, but we appreciate that you don't.....a 'chin out' attitude about your products that shows for anyone to see. The fact that you kill otherwise useful products because there's a better way or it's not good enough speaks loudly over the guys that will literally put any sort of trash that will pass a quick visual inspection by a randomly selected stoner looking for a good time. Don't it just?

Out of principle i won't say.... Use the search function. Your post basically said your to "busy" to look up the answer, and you would like someone else to do it for you.... Best of luck....

THanks for your input. SOrry I am not able to read and comprehend a 352 page thread. I was just trying to find out quickly. Not asking someone to look it up for me but to spit it out... I am worried I wont pass the Persei Omni 101 class and wont be able to get the hercules until i pass 202 Vaping....

I do find lots of info in these threads when I can find the time. But if I had more time I would spend it using my Persei or Omni vs trying to swim thru all of these posts.

one must admit there is more coaching, practice, understanding, mistakes, loss of product, learning curve, and satisfaction once you master or pass all the course knowledge etc......
Maybe more then I needed for my GED>>>>>>

G is there a remedial class for dummies???

You got A+ in my book for customer service, It is fun watching your creations come to reality. Thanks for all you do and like what you create.

Thanks. That's not my understanding of it (hard to say really on something that doesn't exist yet....). I recall photos of a prototype a VV pass thru supply which means no on board battery as TV is currently doing on theirs. And if it does contain an on board battery like O-phos does I fail to see how that would be any improvement over the same battery without the feed thru function.

We'll probably have to wait to see what is finally offered, but I don't understand how an increase in performance can come from adding a pass thru function you're not using at the moment any more than it does on O-Phos and similar e-cig units presently. In those cases, it's the internal battery that determines performance.

The only way I know to get more power in such a scheme is to make it a corded vape....or go to bigger batteries of course.


Main benefit from O-Phos allows to keep voltages up/ hot at will w/o carrying extra cells

Additionally ,will hav to agree w/your speculation on possible larger internals ~

Personally ,being tethered to a cord for flowers would not be a sacrifice on this end ,as

100% of my use prefers O-Phos on-the-go [set & forget]

Bummer, Bro, but your call for sure. I can understand you're not wanting to wallow with 'those guys' and try to compete in a cutthroat market with the 'revolutionary' modified e-cigs, please do stay at least a cut above them?

Excusing my ignorance, please, but what is "main stream HAT boards"?

TIA

I guess I'm still confused. How does O-Phos "keep voltages up"? My understanding is it's basically a V1 with an on board charger? That is it's regulated down to 3.3 or so Volts until the battery nears the end of charge? That happens on V2 and lots of others with both internal and replaceable batteries. In either case you have to carry the battery with you (either inside the handle or in your pocket) if you want to use them. I don't see how a feed thru effects any of this in any way?

I thought the issue was use in the field?

Like I said, I'm confused..... Maybe it doesn't really matter?

no sweat. sorry for late reply, fc is sloooooow right now. 5 ohm on 6v works fine. honestly i can even use it w/ a 14650 on my omicron, just have to draw slightly slower. it rips on 6v. feels solid as hell. even a little top heavy on an omicron. better balanced on the persei. great cover tho. as it's center looks very similar to a normal cart. pulls clean and clear.

So, enough already, hit it and pass it. This is not the Bogart Forum you know......

Sorry OF I missed it, HAT is another phrase we have coined,

Perhaps an example of this issue will finally 'clarify' it for you ; let's suggest my O-Phos is

going to be out & about for at least a couple days ,b/c all that's needed to keep a hot charge

is the small ,portable AC adapter / USB (laptop ,AC ,auto) ~

OTOH ,carrying extra externals makes it inconvenient for this patient ,besides lacking stealth

compared to O-PHOS

Well we efed up man. Back in January i posted a video of our nail carts, then i think a day or two later a competitor started selling their units, ours had a similar design. so we nixed the idea because now if we put it out its going to look like we copied theirs. Then we decided to redesign it and fix the issues we found from the competition's device, and we did then they released the second design that was similar to our re design, because of this we went back to the drawing to make a different version so it does not look like a copy. Then after all of this the Hercules carts where almost done and going into testing. I started to concentrate on the the herc, universe, and leak proofs more then the nail cart because one the competition has the LAyG already with addition to that the atomizer systems from Chinese ecig's making into the main stream HAT boards we just could not compete with price wise on it. So we scrubbed the that idea all together. Now ill go back to the drawing board and try to see what we can do to bring them into limited production run.

I see where you're coming from, but eff that. You guys have already raised the bar in every aspect. We know what's up, so don't let the fact that someone has done a similar design stop you from doing it (and most likely doing it better!). We have all the faith in the world in you, G!

Thanks for trying again, but I'm afraid I'm still not following things well. Right now, my understanding is this "keeping voltages up" is related to frequent charging, having nothing special to do with O-Phos past your finding it convenient. OK, although I think a large number of similar pens and battery systems can be just as convenient (in fact many use the exact same system, although they offer additional features as well in some cases), nothing special here.

And it seems the need for a pass thru system is not essential to future use of Omicron (which is where I first went off track I think).

You're happy with your O-Phos I gather, which is fine.

we welcome jokes.

Great policy. Can keep life from getting too dull you know. Good for the blood pressure too.

Sometimes, though, I get the feeling I've missed the funny part completely......

I've had my omicron v2 for a few months now but today the unit started flashing 3 times immediately after pressing the power button. I fully recharged the batteries, cleaned all contact points & threads multiple times but it's still flashing and not working. Any ideas on what I can do to fix it?

Thanks for having faith in us brotha. We will do something.




Ok so to lay the pass through to rest. The pass through in the ophos i think when connected provides 4.2v at all times the battery acts as a back up if more then 1 amp current is needed.

hey guys, i was using my omicron v2 last night, dont know if the cart was running low, but i was only getting light wisps of smokes. I kept trying to hit it, and im afraid i might have messed something up.

All of my used carts will not get warm now. I thought it was the one specific 1.5 i had, so i purchased a new 1.5 cart, and that still did not get warm. tried it on a friends omicron, and it works.

so after fidgeting with the device, charging up the batteries, giving the connections a iso wipe down with a cotton swab, one of the used carts started to work for a split second. then after that...nothing.

I know i should prob just submit a ticket and have the excellent customer service take care of it, but I'm so sad my device is not working, i figured i'd post to see if any of you experienced users have any suggestions or recommendations to get my omicron working again!

also, since the office is in van nuys, is there a way to drop in to avoid the shipping downtime?
Look forward to hearing back from you guys, need my omicron back up and running!!!!

Already picked one up(pre-ordered back in May!) the wife loves it BTW!

I want to thank G for handling my top issue personally, and the D9 support team as well, they received my defective Fri. and I received my replacement Mon.(almost Coast to Coast) Can't wait to try the Hurc Cart and Bender for Persei soon!

Keep it comin' D9! You're still setting the BAR!

and just real quick, is there a difference between 1.5 carts? i have one that says 1.5 EC/601 and the new one i tried today says 1.5 EC/6 W9 tech. Did i get a 1.5 for 6.0v?!?!!?
