What kind of oil? I have come across a couple kinda that are just too liquidy for the Omicron carts. I'm talking about stuff that is runny at room temp.
just curious, how do you fill your cartridges/
I think half the work of having one of these isnt filling technique, but understanding what you can put in it exactly.. first one I did was quite thick and made it difficult to pull.. second seems to be too liquidy I guess when I thought it would have been a happy medium haha. The potency of the oil was way nicer though.

Also maybe with the oils putting almost a full gram in is too much for first load of cart? Was that the issue? Once it started dropping from the vial it was tricky for me to stop it so wondering if I just over filled or something. Just seems odd it was fine for a few days and is only now leaking...
Once again OF thanks for the knowledge. This was a 2.4 Cart as I took your vast advice on this subject from reading this thread. I am not seeking massive clouds, just easy to use on demand medicating haha. For fill method, I am waiting for my torch lighter to come in the mail but I used a regular lighter and tried to follow all the videos/steps I've read here. Slowly heated center while rotating slowly from bottom of cart. I then slowly heated the vial inside the fill tool and kept moving the heat up and down cart. I never let it get too hot to touch and when it got warmer I let it sit for a few minutes than reapplied heat.While having good concentrate is important, I've had some awfully thin oils stay put just fine. As a guess this was in your pocket (and warmed up)? What resistance carts?
I don't agree with you on the importance of filling technique. My experience is that's the most important single part. You can get an Omicron to feed some extremely hard shatter on one end and (at last for a while) hold thin stuff like PG squarely in check. After loading, I think the next most important part is controlling the heat. Thick or thin oils should not effect the draw at all, the oil is all fluid when delivered to the heater, at least in theory. However, it's easy to collect too much on the heater side of the seals so that over time it leaks out the bottom. Done right, there's nothing to restrict the draw when you're using it and then later when you shut down to drift down and make a mess.
I'd suggest cleaning it up completely. Wipe off what you can with ISO and a rag or paper towel. Clean the socket in the Omicron well too, you don't want stuff gluing itself in later on.
Then take a fine wire, needle or straightened paper clip and carefully push it down the flue. Don't poke it into the heater (about 1.5 inches down). Pull it back out, wipe it clean and do it again until it comes up clean. Likewise, carefully do the bottom vent tube. The heater is much closer and the tube is a little smaller. Get as much as you can out. Run it a bit and clean it again. If you can clean out the furnace body and the seals hold this will sort it out, be careful with the heat, especially the cooling down after use.
Again, how warm was it, how did you load it and how many Ohms is it? TIA
I agree, fill is worth confirming as not the problem.

I'd call it quits with that cart, try to reclaim if necessary, start fresh with .5g in a new cart.so just cleaned it all up with iso, and stuck a paper clip down both holes and waited till those were clean as well. Put it back on omi after waiting a few minutes, and after pushing button for a second or two and taking a small drag, I heard a sizzling slightly, no air flow, and when I took the cart out it had leaked even more from the little side holes on the bottom as well as the bottom hole again. Cleaned all the material off of the connector on the vape itself, but I am feeling this cart is shot? I already have learned more on loading from these past few posts of OF's so I am tempted to empty this one and attempt to fill part of it in a new cart.
I am also not using those white donut caps as most people (even delta 9) says to not use them.. I just have one of those black plastic mouth pieces they sell on it when I carry it in the tube.
Any further advice? If this cart keeps leaking, would like to obviously try and salvage what oil is left.

And yes it was in my pocket for a bit and was somewhat warm, but I was not in a very hot environment with it, as I was with it in an office most of the day.
So is the hole in the top travel all the way down to the heating element ? Or all the way down and out the hole that's on the bottom? That's where it seems to be leaking from just want to make sure I don't ruin anything.
All the recent talk of cartomizers inspired me to go grab some e-liquid and a CE4 Cartomizer...can't wait try it out. woo!

He is using e-liquid and a CE4 Cartomizer.Ce4 do not work well with wax or oils,,but with liquid,,,

I have a concept that addresses those possible dangers while maximizing the photonic output of the laser diode at the same time. the heating element material is expensive beyond prohibitive cost... This material is essential to overcoming the possible drawbacks to such a device, and has therefore brought all of my forward progress to a complete halt.Project X we are working on is a laser powered vaporizer. Unfortunately it's not feasible yet. Battery life, danger to user, cost is prohibitive.

I love my O-Phos also.Got my O-PHOS today
I LOVE IT!
