And when do you like to stop loading oil into the cart and consider it done? im sure i could keep loading more oil in there but i dont wanna waste any and put oil into a less then satisfying cart
Done 'right' you can usually get carts to foul out (slow feeding, reduced output, longer times) rather than get overheated, jam too bad, or leak to death. Die of old age, rather than youthful indiscretion if you will. When you decide to put Granny in the home is largely up to you. With good concentrates I get bored around 3 grams give or take and instantly shift to easier and thicker vapor but hopefully not to radically improved taste. If you open one up inside at this point, this is what you see (after cleaning it up, of course):
Notice the junk that wouldn't evaporate away has plugged the wicks right where they feed into the furnace (that black junk wasn't in the oil I put in). That which made it through there died on the ash pile forming the scab on the heater (forcing the vapor out cracks like a comet head or something). This one would still be working and basically tasting OK but would take some extra heat control to get it working right and keep it there. When new they ramp up and down faster and easier. And the vapor production would be lower until it got really going since the wicks are blocked so completely. Like old plumbing.
So, with experience, you learn to tell by performance drop it's time to retire rather than refill the cart.
yes the search function might cut down on some recycling of information, but sometimes it is a good thing to ask something someone else said in a diferent way that way someone else reading may be able to read it from anoter point of view or wording and it might make more sense..but i know you were only mentioning so i dont waste any more money not to heckle(maybe).. wasnt being pessimistic or anything just sharing my expirience so far
No, I mentioned it because it was a serious suggestion.
While I understand your point in the general case, that's not the case here by a long measure. Your issues and approach are far from uncommon. The fact remains that we've been over this not a few but dozens of times. The same new guy information. And I end up doing it a LOT. Notice all those posts under my oft noted lack of Icon? Hundreds of them cover half a dozen subjects over and over and over and over using the same words. Carefully chosen words for the most part.
Part of it was a personal request I guess, but I don't expect t hat to carry any weight. Let me put your hypothetical case back to you, 'I think you'll find useful information in there you haven't thought to ask'. I understand it's easier to ask, but looking it up also works. I've no intent to keep answering the same sorts of questions forever for you. When I stop, some else will surely pick up the same torch and carry on. I'm not making this up. Your call.
These carts are great performers. Look at this and the Omicron forum, over 20,000 posts mostly from happy owners. But you have to deal with it as it is, not as you think it should be. That means learning, not assuming.
Sorry to be blunt, but that's how I'm honestly seeing it. If you want to get the most of this fine system, you'll be well served to do your home work.
hope my post doesnt get lost? hehe
Not to worry, DubC will no doubt be dropping by. He knows every loose V2 in NorCal I think. He'll give you several shops with stock no doubt, I can't for sure. I think Harborside (Oakland) had them last I looked.
I assume you're going to the show in San Jose? Check these guys out, they're near by and have excellent (if a little pricey) goods:

Lots of interesting bubble (not useful with Omicron of course) and some interesting looking shatters, but not much in the way of oils or waxes right now, but that changes daily. Note if you have email access you can order stuff for 24 hours will call hold. Be sure you stick to 'sure bets' (stay clear of full melts, look for light colors). All the goods there are lab tested (which costs more but give insurance in quality and potency).
