You never know with that guy
Just kidding Zu, you know we love you
Yes I got mine today Thanks Vapor What can I say, first coil and nothing lol Keep pressing that button and it start getting hot
Of course I knew right away where is the problem, so I showe that wire excess little more between those knurled nuts and tried again... and boom It's alive!
I wraped 1.6 coil and it is beautiful. I love it guys, just as all of you. Imo it vapes even better than iatty, and I don't have to mention how much I like liquid control, love the design and how sexy it looks on ss stealth. Imeo really knows his business and I'm not gg fanboy for nothing.
P.s. And no more rakija(ljivovic) for me lol I barely stayed alive on new year fest

I concur and have experienced the same flooding, even with using xc-116 wick.
Stefano, here's what I've noticed... As Imeo said, there is definitely some pressure which gets created when we are screwing down the top cap. However, I don't get any gurgle or leaking after I screw down my top cap unless I start unscrewing the mouthpiece right away after the top cap is tightened.
I fill up my ODY all the way up to the top so that I don't have to refill it as often. So, if my ODY is completely full when the mouthpiece is closed all the way down, that liquid will be pushed if I open the mouthpiece too much in the beginning and will obviously flood the wick and coil and result in leaking since it has to escape somewhere. So here's what I do: After the refill, I start vaping with the mouthpiece fully closed. When I start noticing that it's getting a little dry, I open the mouthpiece only half a turn and vape some more. After a couple of minutes of vaping I open it another half a turn and keep on repeating this until I get to 4-6 half turns which is where I leave it for vaping the rest of the tank.
This is what works for me every time now. I had some gurgle and leaking initially until I stopped opening the mouthpiece right away after tightening the top cap. I don't know for sure if this will help you or not but I just wanted to share my experience.
Sretno i Zivjeli!
Been using the xc-116 wick for a few days now. I used a carbide cutter and a diamond point to widen and deepen the wick channel. Loads of vapor on my SS Stealth, 3.7v on a 1.8 oHm coil. I used .20 Kanthal wire and .236 for the NR wire.
When I first got Ody I used the stock wire and got a good taste from it. I did 9-10 hits back to back and all had good taste.
I agree with others it would be nice to have some ceramics with channels that can accommodate the xc-116 wick.
My Ody on a SS Stealth is really awesome looking!! Loving this stealthy setup. I vape at my desk at work. No one knows...muahaha.

Yea, to me it just makes sense since it's a matter of physics. Unscrewing the mouthpiece creates a lesser volume of space available in the tank, so the liquid starts to get pushed out if the tank is full... So, do you feel that by starting to vape right away and not opening the liquid control right after the fill-up but rather gradually easing into it has helped you eliminate gurgle/flooding?
no flooding so far but i do vape mostly vg. All is well with the xc-116. Vapor and taste are great i am vaping a 2.6 coil at 6v working like a charm.
You people make me excited to get an extra ceramic to modify!! Given the fact I broke 3 ceramixs on the iAtty before I got it right I will be patient lol.
Same here....VG ejuice and 116; but I'm using a 3.2 coil @ 5.1v. For whatever reason I enjoy the flavor and vapor at lower settings with the Ody.
I still can't quite get over just how great it works....an incredible vaping machine.
i purchased all the parts for building a vv unit for this thing. I should probably give it a shot until something official comes. Even with vv i dont know if it can get better. Loving the ody and gg even shelved my monkey boxx.(gasp) For some reason the ody doesnt suffer from loss of flavor like bottom feeders do. Thanks to all of you for the help and to imeo for turning and idea into reality.
@fright dont be afraid just take your time and i dont see how you could break it with the diamond files.

Granted I am new to rolling your own coils but I can verify that this prevents flooding for me. I actually forgot to open juice control on my first few pulls of its first use.
In many tanks use, I only knew it worked so I have continued the same process. Call it pure luck but I have yet to have any flooding yet, knock on wood!

Vaporologist, that's exactly how I start out, I fill mine to the tippy top, screw the top on, and vape if the coil is nice and wet, then I ease the cone open, once it's settled down I open it to where it runs perfect until the tank is empty (mine is all the way open after the initial filling, extra liquid "cramming" that I do)
You guys also have to consider a couple of factors...
1. compressiblility of gasses: If you leave (even a very small airspace) flooding will be minimized as there is a quantity of air that can be compressed. which will add pressure to the system, and will feed the wick in the beginning.
2. Incompressiblity of liquids: By filling the tank to the tippy top, you no longer have a measureable amount of air to compress, with the system completely liquid you are no longer afforded the ability to compress any part of the system, when you screw the cap down you are essentially applying force to a hydraulic system, any force, applied will have an equal and opposite force on the path of least resistance (the cone/tank/wick system) it is the only outlet for pressure.
So essentially by filling it to the tippy tippy top, you are creating a closed hydraulic system. the liquid will find the path of least resistance. So if you open the cone too far in the beginning all of that will rush into the tank and wick before you can vape it quick enough. (Yay Gurgling) By opening the cone very minute amounts you are slowly releasing the (Potential Energy) stored in the system, if it's slow enough you can keep up with it vaping, if it's too fast you flood

I still stand by what I said, not that Imeo created a major conspiracy, just that he did not give the full truth on trouble with developing mods using the said system. Being a Mod on these forums you must know about the somewhat flimsy copywright.
Saying he is concerned about our health with SS wick rusting, is at best false, as stainless steel does not rust.
Also your rambling about the "full picture" does not make sense in the real world. I hope this post does not make you so angry as to not be able to post for a few days. 'sarcastic lol'
Count me out from now on.

Thank you for the fond memories Imeo and co.
Carol, I choose not to participate in your discussion until now simply because I didn't want to see this valuable thread derailed any further... During your first post where you asked Para about SS mesh, I thought you came here genuinely looking for information from experienced users in order to gain a different perspective. However, your next few posts revealed that your motives are not as pure as initially portrait and that perhaps your heart is not in the right place. I still don't know exactly what you are up to but it doesn't look good. You certainly didn't come here to make friends just as you have not make any since you joined this forum, at least according to your user profile. Maybe it's best to close this chapter and start another one... Good luck to you.

Excellent explanation! Thank you for that!

With the eloquent response by my friend Vapor, there is no need for added words from me other than to say it is a pleasure to have a friend that is worthy of defending. Good luck and hope you find a friend of that nature.
