The best info you can get is on the Odysseus page of the wiki. Watch all videos of Imeo and follow his instructions exactly.
I'm using the standard supplies (wick & wires) and imo Odysseus is working perfect.

You can use the 2mm wick with a second strand on the top of the ceramic - just as long as the ceramic is wide. Another way is to combine a 2mm & 1mm wick which is going down the side in the channels of the ceramic. Both methods provide enough wicking for a perfect vape experience.

Have fun with your Odysseus.

Try the double wick the way Scott (igetchya) does it in his review. Works well for me ~1.5Ω or so... I also had soapy taste and got rid of it by heating my ceramic in a torch flame.

I just bought one for a similar price from the UK.

Couldn't be more pleased!

Grats guys on the Odysseus. I also use double wick method with 1.8-2.0ohms. Works great for me!

I always use double wick (2mm), most times the second wick is about 1cm longer than the ceramic. This means that only one wick goes in the channels of the ceramic and into Ody base, while the second wick stops before the metal ring we put around the ceramic holder.
I've tried with 2 full length wicks, but I found out that this method needs very careful placing of the wick in the ceramic channels. If some part of it gets caught by the metal ring it affects the juice flow.

The best taste I had was with double resistance wire (0.20+0.13 twisted) at around 1.4-1.5ohms.
