Loki Lab Pyrex Tanks and Pro Rings

[SoCalCraig]

Hi Craig- I have a question for you. Do you guys at Loki Labs have recommendations for cleaning the Odin? I use some pretty gunky juice and I wonder about build up down in the connector, where the juice drains. Anything more than a hot water rinse needed?

I use an ultrasonic every now and again when I pull my reo apart to clean its internals as well.

If you dont have access to an ultrasonic, you can use alcohol. Let it soak in there for a bit to help break up the gunky stuff. Then rinse in hot water.. if you wanna do what I do to help rinse.. I then setup my Odin with no coil on the reo and fill the bottle with clean warm water over the sink and just squirt it thru over the sink.

Everyone may have their own methods but that works well for me.

Thanks Craig!

It seems to suck up the juice just like a straw. I'll report back if I have any issues, but so far, works like a champ.

Edit: I did use a little longer wick than I would with horizontal coils. It goes straight down, and lies flat against the deck just a little bit right near the juice hole. I wanted some surface along the deck to get any juice that doesn't get drained out.

caveat- I just finished building my Odin with vertical coils so haven't vaped with them but for just a few minutes and thought of this post of yours. How did the verticals turn out for you? As good as horizontal, better or worse?

Still vertical! I'm thinking I like it better this way. I swear it seems like I get more flavor. Maybe it wicks better? I dunno but it's still working for me and my impression is that I like it better than horizontal.

I'm liking it to. It seems to not trap the juice as much between the air hole and the coil as much as the horizontal coils. That was my only problem with the Odin, getting those horizontals to close to the air holes and trapping juice there. It wasn't a huge deal but the vertical coils did fix it. The vape is definitely just as good and I'm wondering if it could be better if I made my RxW wick a little longer on the well end.

I do seem to get much less juice weeping out of the air holes. It seems like the coils are just as close as they were before, but it stays much cleaner now.

Do either of you have pics of your vertical builds? I'm interested in giving it a try.

We may be offering Odins soon in a few solid colors. (No logo like the pic)

just samples in the pic..


It a nice durable Cerakote finish only applied to the outside.

Wanted to know if anyone knows what I'm doing wrong with my BF Odin on the LP Grand. For about about a week, I wake up in the morning, go grab my coffee and my REO and when I pick up my REO, there's juice that has leaked from the bottom of the Odin, down the side of the REO and underneath.

I have to wipe up leaked juice on my table, the REO, button cover area...it's weird! I'm not using it and it's leaking overnight. I check the connection and it's screwed in, check the inside and it's not over squonked (check that in the evening too). Not sure what's going on and why it's leaking. Any ideas?

I would very much like one of those. Can I be first on the dibs list?

Angie maybe loosen the juice bottle from it's cap before you go to bed. Maybe there is some sort of pressure building up in the bottle forcing juice up and out. I think if the temp in your house changes a lot from the day time versus the night that can play a part too.

Do you have an o ring under it? I had some leaking around the 510 when I wasn't using an o ring but haven't had any with one.

Not vertical in a BF.. but still the way I'd set it up.

Thats what came to mind when I looked at mine. Tho, I've never found a need for an oring. Im a tinkerer.. and have my 510 connection on my Reo set just how I like it.

 

[AngiBe]

Ok, I'm an idiot-not using an o-ring. Thanks

 

[pwheeler]

Thanks for the pic, Craig! Gives me an idea of how it should go.

Thanks! will try that too. Temp, however; in my house is constantly COLD thanks to my Polar bear hubby Spring, summer, winter and fall-always around 65. I pretty much live in a winter coat year round

Try the larger o-ring That solved the problem I had on one of my LP's. The others didn't need it. (The larger o-ring from Rob's site)

It could also be from over squonking. I've done that as well. The juice runs down the fire button hole to the battery compartment and out the bottom.

Craig do you guys plan on releasing these in the near future? And what colors will be available? And last but not least will there be matching drip tips?

We do plan to release them soon. Having more color samples made to know exactly which colors we want to offer. Totally open for color suggestions as well.

We mat do some ss1 and router bit DTs to match as well.
