gotta be airhole. dont have my orion yet, but the airhole on the orion is much smaller than the iHy... I get tons of vapor from the iHy, so as far as I can see the biggest difference will be airflow/airhole size

ok so if i want to increase the airhole just a little bit from 1.1mm to 1.2 mm , all i need to do is drill it with a 1.2mm drill bit? Is there any other thing i need to know of before drilling the hole?
nothing really, just be sure you want that bigger hole, because there is no turning back
i thought about going to a local machine shop and having them put another hole the same size directly below the original hole, about 2-3 mm lower
there is no turning back
Now this i really have to consider deeply... don't want to regret after doing it

Then try an old juice bottle first!!!
Not a bad idea placing another 1mm airhole just below. Hole area for two 1mm airholes would be .785x2=1.57. One 1.5mm airhole has an area of 1.77. So two 1mm airholes will be a wee bit tighter draw than one 1.5mm. Also you will have the option to plug one of the holes if you want a stock 1mm draw.
Darn why didn't I think of that before I drill mine to 1.5mm.

precisely my reasoning behind the dual hole... even a triple hole would be ok because one (or more) could be plugged.
i am thinking of using a 1/16 drill bit to expend the hole ... but can someone tell me if i would lose flavor or throat hit? and will the draw be more airy?
Can you tell me how do i try it out with a 10ml bottle? i really have no clue
I went ahead and drilled a hole to 1/16... now it's a fog machine . i'm loving it now...just that the draw is a little more airy now ..but thanks alot for all the advice guys..really appreciate it

glad it worked out!
for what it's worth, the 10ml bottle trick is to cut a hole in the bottom so that it can thread on like a top cap.... then you poke an air hole the size of whatever hole you're considering, and vape it with a bottle instead of the top cap.
Les made it sound like there's going to be an upgrade kit for 2.1 users to mod it to v3. I am curious about this. Price, ease of applying it & whether it can be removed to resort back to original 2,1. Any thoughts about this?
Orion care package anyone?

umm...I don't think a upgrade kit would be feasible as the design of the v3 is entirely different than the v2.1.
Here's some pics of the v3 design.
