Odin?!

[eratikmind]

I had the same issue with my 2nd Odin, which I just received a few days ago. Unlike my first one, the center post screw may be too short, I believe.

It took awhile for me to secure the 2 positive leads. I'll know more during the next coil change.

That sounds exactly my problem. The screw threads all the way to the top of the center post and does not hold the wires tight enough. Right now I have it built the positive leads wrapped around the screw then clamp them between the center post and screw.

I just wanted to see if anybody had the same problem and knew how to fix it before I contacted Craig about it.

Yeah, from all appearances the positive connections looked tidy and perfect, until I checked the resistance.

My Odin #1 was not that way and I don't want to take it apart to see what may be different because it's work so well, right now.

ETA: Odin #2 has held its resistance, but it took quite a bit of fiddling to keep the positive wires secured.

Somewhere in the beginning of this thread, I had the same prob and posted about it.

Craig said the center post wire hole was drilled to low and I had to send it back.

Still waiting for my Router DT Craig????

 

[eratikmind]

Well, as well as these old tired eyes can see, the center post holes appear to be at the same elevation between my 2 Odins.

Maybe the center the screw is just slightly too short? I noticed that mine has to be tightened all the way down before it feels tight. Seems to work fine though.

 

[Filthy-Beast]

Yeah I might have the problem too. A couple of times the vapes been weak all screws seem tight but if I loosen and tighten them again it works. I'll have to check the ohms the next time.

 

[BigB_117]

Anyone know the specs on the screws? I needs some spares plus we could probably find some that are a couple mm longer.

 

[BigB_117]

3-48 Machine screw 1/8" length.

If there is an issue with anyones not locking down, I'll replace your center post for free.

Just shoot an email to craig at lokilab dot com. (Sorry to much spam mail as it is)

Thanks Craig.

 

[eratikmind]

Sweet, I'll see if I can locate the screw and try that first.

Couple questions:
- do the negative terminals have post holes or just go under the head of the screw?
- will the positive post accommodate dual 24ga coil builds?
Planning on gettin crazy here once the Odins and router drip tips are in stock. I'm sold on this rda regardless, I just need conversation while I click "refresh" on loki labs...

 

[gwe2000]

Craig has mine back now replacing that center post for me. I can't wait to get it back. Nothing hits like that Odin. I sent my green Reo Grand in to Rob get LP'd just so i can put a Odin on it too. My LP/SL black Grand is missing it's Odin now. The bf atomic is leaving me wanting.

Negative terminals have a 'trap' small valley milled to hold the wire while screwing.

Positive post can take I think 4 or 5 pieces of 26awg.

All good news! I'm even more excited now. I'll take two!

I really wish more RDA makers did this. The trap works perfectly. I'm so used to having to wrap wires around the screw heads, your way works so much better. (at least for me)

I am also waiting on a restock of Router drip tips. They have got to be the most comfortable trip tip I've ever used. It feels weird to gush over a drip tip, but there you have it.

Awesome job SoCalCraig!

If you can't count your coil wraps properly on the duals (which I can't seem to do cuz I'm an idiot) the rest is easy on the Odin. It's a great RDA.

I still need another router DT too. It's awesome. I have one on one Odin, but the other, I have a .45, but just isn't the same to me. But patiently waiting...

Thanx Craig!!

You're first on the list once I have more completed.

All you do is whine and complain. No one is going to give you free rda's and everyone is sick of your nonsense.
