Make sure you lightly heat it up the tip.
bruno13 said:rufrothy said:Awesome. What do you think flavor wise on the extracts you loaded so far? How's the pure gold working out?
The Gold is pure heaven. Nothing beats the flavor. Thick, overpowering pulls every time. HOK glass is ok, tastes like hash and was hard to get primed. The gold is expensive but works the best. I will stick to gold for awhile.
rufrothy said:So I woke up this morning and the omicron wouldn't hit. It was standing upright all night. It was clogged. after a moment of thinking I figured if it heated it up (pressing the button) it might loosen up and enable me to draw from it. It did eventually and I could hear it gurgling (i'm guess too much oil somewhere from sucking too hard). let it sit again and it was clogged again. repeated process. decided to see if leaving it on its side would be any different.
nope, dont do that. oil started leaking out the tip. cleaned up that mess and cleaned out the tube carefully with a paper clip and now its almost back to normal.
I'm guessing this was from drawing too hard. In the process of cleaning this up I was hitting the button more and pulling less and got some monster hits. So now I hear sizzling when I hit it but am getting some strong hits.

when you put it on its side, place the white cap to make sure the liquid does not come out. It gets clogged from time to time, but after a while clears up. The size of the second chamber and the wick are so small that sometimes more liquid gets in then the chamber can handle so it solidifies inside and covers the air hole. When you heat it up it clears up after a few pulls.
Its not perfect but we are working on this issue also.

We called the USPS they said that it is on its way to your Home state, that is just the route it takes. Weird but hey let it get delivered first and we will take it from there.

Nice. Really good contribution to this thread. I will be getting the funnel and micro torch. Thanks

greenbean said:I'm interested in this vape but I have a few questions. Does the Omicron use a FET switch for consistent voltage similar to an eGo battery or will the performance drop when the battery is partially discharged?
What materials are used in the construction of the cartomizer besides stainless steel and nichro/kanthal wire? I've seen something mentioned about a wick, is it a typical glass fiber wick? Are there glues etc? What's the top ledge by the fill hole made out of? It looks white in the pictures/videos I've seen.
If I put some shatter in the carto, will it all make it to the atomizer without reheating the tube?
Thanks.
edit: Oh, will a standard 510/901 drip tip fit? There are some pretty nice looking ones out there.
THC SCIENTIFIC said:The battery is off the shelf unit. Nothing special about it, 3.7v constant. the cartridge is made of stainless steel, ceramic, wire, rubber seals, and silica rope.
We are looking to have them include a drip tip instead of the mouth piece, but the rubber tops are cheaper to include with every cartridge, but we are looking to having nice tip included in the unit.
Also shatter will go down with only a little heat applied to the cartridge when filling it up.
notmyrealUSERname said:suppose that for some strange reason the cartridge you are using dies, and imagine its still approx 1/2 full - is it possible to reclaim the leftovers by heating the cartridge up and turning it upside down in order to pour the oil into a dish? will you be able to get it all out, how much will be left in the cart if you are forced to toss it in the garbage?

You can flip it upside down and reclaim, we guessing loss of 10-20%
