Epic Journey
Ody Dual Coil!

Hey guys and gals, I have been chatting with Imeo and he thought some peeps here might be interested in this instructional video. Believe me, it is AWESOME! :)

Hey J, thanks for the video!

It was nice to be able to put a face to a voice on the phone :)

Hey Major - you got that 2.6 at 6V yet

Sorry for the slow reply! Has been a terribly busy weekend and lots of reading to catch up on! :)

But no, I will pass on 6v. I popped a pair of 3v's in my #1376 just to say I had but it burned my throat in a major way. Haven't had a hit like that since trying some Florida home grown... :blush:

I'll keep my 3.8-4.2 tyvm! :laugh:

And now for the stupid Odysseus trick of the week:

I was so proud of my 2.6 coil and enjoying the NFL playoffs yesterday afternoon. My daily go to is 555 but for some unearthly reason, I grabbed a bottle of French Toast and barely looking, refilled my Ody while still watching the game.

Well 555 and French Toast taste like what I figure horse apples would - Pure crap. I took off the top, emptied the juice into the sink. My wife had just gotten a glass of water from the Purolator filter so I grabbed it and made back to the den.

Getting back in my perch, I disassembled the Ody and dropped the pieces into the glass of water. Listening to my wife tell me she hoped I choked on the glass of water, I thought nothing more of it until I got up today.

Have you ever seen those plastic lemons or limes they sell in grocery stores? The ones with the concentrated extracts in them. So when I took my parts out of the glass of water, I noticed the connector pin was black, literally. After spazzing out my wife heard my upset and I showed her what her glass of "water" had done to my Ody connector pin.

That's when she told me the reason for saying she hoped I choked on it... The water had a large percentage of lemon juice extract. The black came right off the connector pin of course but so did the nickle plating. It is a nice shade of gold now... :blush:

So I get the dunce award of the week for the Ody. And just in case you guys don't know (I'm sure most intelligent people do), make sure you don't wash or soak any of the very few parts of any GG that is nickle plated brass with anything even mildly or naturally acidic. And yes, that includes lemon juice! :laugh:

Don't feel to bad Steve I burnt out my last 2 battery springs making my last coil trying to save a couple cents in wire. Deciding that I would leave some extra length on the posative nr wire for easier reuse I wrapped my wire 2 times like normal tightened the nut then trimmed the wire but left probably 1 cm of extra thinking I would be smart and just kinda tuck it in the little gap between the nut and base (where the t wraps went. Well apparently when I tightened it to the base the wire popped out just enough to ground to the base. I didn't check the resistance and pupped it on for a test fire and melted my spring. Being half asleep I popped in my other battery spring (from a backup ggts) swapped out the 901 to 510 adapter thinking I had messed it up and burned out my second spring. Once I took it appart I realized the issue and promptly fixed it.

Lesson learned eat the 20 cents or whatever and just make a new coil rather then trying to cut extra to reuse.

My Odysseus has arrived!!!

My 1st coil bulit with the supplied wire is 2.9ohm. The vapour is really woot. Awsome.
As for the taste.. Umm... even after burning + soaking in IPA, still do have the soapy taste but I can live with that.
Built is 100% solid. From the weight of it can already tell it's built to last (Other than the wear and tear parts)
Building and usage, the videos really helps. My 1st time building a coil but everything went smoothly with not much wastage. Will definately improve more on my coil buliding. The juice control is really brilliant. Totally no burnt taste with chain vaping or any leakage issues.

Thanks Imeo for this creation. Fantastic device which I will sure keep with me always. Regretting not buying a 2nd one. Will be staying tune here for the next batch release and also for the upgrade parts.

i will send pins to bruce very soon Major, no worries. But you can still use it as it is because it contacts liquid in a very small surface.

I just received my Odysseus at last :) . Great job Imeo. I'm really impressed with the work he has done. I've been a good time recreating the pieces in my hands.

After cleaning the tile with fire and a good wash in the first vodka I have Nicrom resistance of 0.20 mm (2.0 ohm) in one of my GG Stealth. Excellent taste and vapor. Congratulations Imeo.

Without fear of being wrong is the best I've tried to repair atomizer.
Sorry for my English but I have to use Google translate.:oops:

Best regards.
