Man (Omega) Down ..... Need Help !

[Mistaree]

Just got my Omega Saturday & have been absolutely loving it ! But it stopped working 15 mins ago & I have no idea why it's not firing !! Haven't dropped it or used it as 6v . been using LR atomizers & 2.4 ohm CE2's . Haven't taken it apart either .. And Altsmoke is closed til 2morrow . HELP !

How's your battery?

Do you have a multimeter? Time to start checking all your components.

Make sure you're attie or carto is not shorting out and causing a spring collapse. One possibility. I don't own one but it looks like it should be a pretty simple fix whatever it is

There's like so little to go wrong on the "O" that it almost has to be the battery if you have tried dif. atties and cartos.
Make sure you didn't trip the PCB. If you let the batt charge for awhile it will usually reset itself. If this all helps, try to keep a close watch after a day of vaping. Make sure the connector is clean too. Post the results so the rest of us will know if there is a problem. Good luck.

Chad is your man at AltSmoke. Anyone know his user ID here so Mistaree can PM him? I took my Omega apart for fun and didn't know how to put it back together. Chad fixed it in a flash. They're nearly indestructable. What have you DONE? j/k

 

[Mistaree]

Not the battery , I have 2 / 18650's doesn't work with either & both fully charged

 

[Mistaree]

Atty works on the Riva

Would love to PM Chad , I haven't taken it apart too afraid to
But switch feels fine , I can't seem to find anything wrong with it

Glad you have a backup! I'm searching old emails for Chad's addy.

Will do ! But I switched out batteries & still did not work
Was vaping perfect one second & not firing the next
really baffled by this . Got the Omega for the mechanical switch

 

[Mistaree]

thanks so much , really trying to figure out what went wrong ?

Nothing I swear
okay I think I found the problem

 

[Mistaree]

I took the battery out & turned the tube upside down
The spring fell out !
Isn't the spring supposed to be soldered in ?

 

[Mistaree]

WTH !
SMDH , This means I have to send it back & get it fixed doesn't it ?
Aww Man , really needed this mod to go out of town next weekend & one Riva is not gonna cut it

 

[Mistaree]

Anybody Know how to fix the spring in an OMEGA ?

 

[Overlord]

No the spring isn't soldered in. It can sit at the bottom loose.

I'd pull apart the switch, clean and lube the threads with noalox. I have 2 omegas and have never had a problem that wasn't solved by cleaning the switch.

 

[nocturn4l3030]

sometimes my atomizers dont work on my omega but do on my other devices

the fix is to look at the bottom of your atomizer that connects or touches the connecting part of the omega..(the circle.part with the hole in it) and using a super tiny screwdriver..i lift it up slightly. the attie just isnt making a connection with your omega

there was a thread on it ...but im on the cell. let me know if it works.or if you have any questions

 

[Mistaree]

ok now I feel silly , I figured the spring is supposed to be like that so back to square 1
My Omega still doesn't work , what in the world is wrong with it ?

 

[Overlord]

As well. Make sure the nipple on your battery isn't caved in by the center pin.

That pin sometimes doesn't have much room to play.
