Brief Overview
A revolutionary personal vaporizer for the true connoisseur, O-PHOS allows you to vaporize solid concentrates anywhere and anytime. Experience pure flavor from start to finish with the new KISS Cartridge, a ceramic wick and titanium coil atomizer.
Revolutionary KISS Cartridge
The KISS Cartridge was specifically designed from the ground up for solid concentrate use, unlike other portable concentrate vaporizers that are typically comprised of re-purposed e-cigarette components. Experience pure flavor from the first draw to the last.
See User Guides below for full usage information.
Using Your O-PHOS
A full visual instruction manual is available on the ‘User Guide’ Tab, but here is a quick usage rundown:
Charge up your 14650 Li-Ion battery(s) until fully charged. The first time you charge them it could take up to 8 hours. Subsequent charges will only take 2-3 hours.
Filling your Kiss Cartridge
Before first use its best to prime the atomizer to remove all manufacturing oils, etc, from the coil. Before you add any concentrate, run the O-PHOS for five seconds, then let it cool for 10 seconds. Repeat this process twice.
Using the included loading tool, apply a small amount of concentrate to the top of the atomizer coil in the ceramic crucible. Press the button and the blue ring surrounding it should illuminate. Heating begins instantly, so you may begin to use until you have had your fill.
Replace the mouthpiece and the O-PHOS is ready to use, or can be set aside for use later. If using later, make sure that once the O-PHOS is loaded, that it does not sit in the sun, a hot car, or any extremely warm situation. Cool temps are best for the O-PHOS.
Press the button, and the blue ring surrounding it should illuminate. Heating begins instantly, the only thing left to do is draw slowly and surely, letting go of the button a few seconds before the end of your draw.
Filling your Tube Cartridge
The Tube cartridge is filled by the included funnel. Refer to the visual instructions in the User Guide. Attach the funnel securely to the open end of the cartridge, and align it so that the open sections of the funnel tip match up with the open sections of the cartridge. Screw the cartridge into the top section(with no batteries attached. Use the top section as a base to hold your funnel/cartridge combo.
Place your liquid or concentrate(only those that melt cleanly) into the funnel, and then with an small handheld butane torch, gently heat the funnel, melting the material until it slides down into the cartridge, heating lower as you go.
Use caution not to overheat at this point. You just want the metal to be warm, which is enough to allow the materials to become pliable enough to let gravity do all the work.
Stop heating once you feel the material is settled into the bottom of the cartridge, and allow it to cool completely before you remove the funnel. Once the funnel is removed, clean if needed and store.
Place the mouthpiece into the cartridge, and screw the cartridge into the main body of the O-PHOS. Press the button, and the blue ring surrounding it should illuminate. Heating begins instantly, the only thing left to do is draw slowly and surely, letting go of the button a few seconds before the end of your draw.
If using later, make sure that once the O-PHOS is loaded, that it does not sit in the sun, a hot car, or any extremely warm situation. Cool temps are best for the O-PHOS.
The KISS Cartridge
When simplicity is what you seek, look no further than the KISS cartridge. W9 removed all unnecessary parts and incorporated a ceramic wick specifically made to absorb liquids. The KISS is a load & go cartridge, meaning that you only load enough for one session at a time. Open it up, load it, close it and its ready to go. It comes with a tool tofill the crucible with concentrate, just a small amount. Replace mouthpiece, and its ready to go. The KISS comes in 3.7, or 7.4 V models depending on what batteries you are using.
Standard Tube Cartridge
The Standard Tube Cartridge is designed for longer journeys, as it holds far more than the KISS cartridge, up to an entire gram at a time, potentially enough for 400 draws. While it offers the convenience of not having to reload after every session, the trade off is a more complicated loading process, and occasionally priming the tube to unclog it.
Both the KISS and Standard tube cartridge use a titanium coil atomizer wrapped around a ceramic wick, and excel with concentrates the melt cleanly and leave no particulate behind. Press the button and the blue ring surrounding it should illuminate. Heating begins instantly, so you may begin to use until you have had your fill.
Vaporization is ruled by Ohms’s Law. Normally this isn’t something we ever worry about or need to discuss with desktop or portable vaporizers, but with Pens, its absolutely required knowledge if you want to have full control over your vapor quality. The O-PHOS doesn’t just offer vaporization, but also vapor customization.
From Wikipedia:
Ohm’s law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance, one arrives at the usual mathematical equation that describes this relationship:
where I is the current through the conductor in units of amperes, V is the potential difference measured across the conductor in units of volts, and R is the resistance of the conductor in units of ohms. More specifically, Ohm’s law states that the R in this relation is constant, independent of the current.
SO WHAT DOES ALL THAT MEAN?
Okay. You have a power source(your pen’s battery) connected to a conductor(the power switch) which is then connected to the wound coil of the atomizer. The atomizer in its simplest form is just a resistive wire strung between two metal posts.
So, to recap:
Power Supply —–> Switch —–> Atomizer
When you press the switch on your O-PHOS, power(current) flows from the battery, through the switch, and to the atomizer coil.
The wire in the switch is conductive: it allows the electrical current to pass right through from the battery to the atomizer coil.
This electrical current then hits the atomizer. This coiled wire in the atomizer is made from a metal wire that does not conduct electricity, rather it resists it. This wire doesn’t allow the current to keep flowing…it acts as a roadblock. But as more current arrives, it adds up, it can’t go any further due to this resistance, but has to go SOMEWHERE, so it builds within that coil, and escapes as heat.
So…lets bring things full circle back to the original question what the differences between the ratings on the cartridges are.
Why should you care?
Regarding Ohm ratings, and this is important, something you will be glad you know when you buy replacement cartridges, the lower the number, the higher the resistance. Lets review the equation again.
Higher resistance equates to higher levels of heat, but to repeat, with Ohms, the lower the number, the higher the resistance. So a 1.4 Ohm Cartridge has a low number, or value, but high resistance, and high heat. A 5.0 Ohm cartridge has a higher number, so it will have a lower resistance, and lower temperatures.
Why does this matter to you?
This allows you to completely customize the vapors that your pen can produce. Are the draws too thick and dense? Or perhaps you want more aroma that lower temperatures allow? Different voltage/Ohm combinations will allow you to tweak the vapor quality until find your sweet spot.
With the O-PHOS, if you want lower temps, go with a higher cartridge rating of 4.0 or 5.0 Ohms. Want thicker denser vapor? You want to look at the 1.5, or 2.4 Ohm versions. Of course, the 3.0 Ohm rating his the sweet spot for many.
* A proper scientific explanation this is not; we highly suggest reading more about Ohms Law if you are interested in more of the actual science involved. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm%27s_law
With a fully charged battery and brand new empty cartridge, press the power button for three seconds. Do not go longer than this, or you could ‘dry fire’ the atomizer, rendering it useless. Allow this to cool. Blow away any vapors that may have been produced.
For the KISS cartridge, after you prime the coil, apply a very small amount of concentrate to the top of the coil, and turn the O-PHOS on for one or two seconds(no more) until the concentrate just melts into the wick.Repeat this process until the wick is fully saturated.
Check the following chart against your power output to determine what cartridge you will need. Always reference the below chart to ensure your cartridge battery combination works correctly together. Note that using a cartridge outside of the recommended range can cause damage to your unit and void the warranty.
Allowing the O-PHOS to heat up a for a few seconds before drawing will create a slightly denser vapor. With a faster draw rate, the vapor will be thinner. With a slower draw rate, the vapor can be slightly thicker.
There are also different voltage cartridges, which in combination with different battery setups will create different vapor qualities. See the chart below for reference.
There are also different wattage cartridges, which in combination with different battery setups will create different vapor qualities. See the chart below for reference.

When using the KISS, its vital to only load as much as you would need for one session. Overfilling can effect the performance of the KISS cartridge.
W9 Recommends filling the Tube Cartridges with up to an entire gram. Its recommended not to use small amounts.
Cleaning & Maintenance
W9 Tech recommends replacing each cartridge after it has consumed 1 gram, which is how much each one holds.
We don’t recommend cleaning the cartridge after use; it will need to be replaced after some time.
If any liquid has made it on to your O-PHOS body, simply wipe off with a damp cloth.
Always make sure your vaporizer is COMPLETELY dry before using it again.
Do not attempt any internal or external repairs to your unit as doing so may cause fatal injury – or worse – void your warranty! (Please contact us if you feel something is wrong with your vaporizer.)
The KISS cartridge can last until the atomizer coil breaks down. Consistently using higher quality concentrates will prevent buildup in the crucible. Cleaning inside the ceramic crucible is not recommended. You could damage the coil or crucible very easily.

Getting the Most Out of Your O-PHOS
- Never leave your O-PHOS in the Sun or a warm car. Ever. This essentially guarantees that the cartridge will leak.
- Re-Read previous point. Twice. 2x.
- Its best to remove the cartridges from the body when traveling or in transit. This ensures they cannot be accidentally discharged if the batteries are loaded and something contacts the power button while moving. It also helps protect the cartridge.
- Do not freeze a filled cartridge. This could damage the atomizer.
- Cold temperatures will cause the battery to deplete faster than normal. If you are headed outside in cold or freezing temperatures, keep the O-PHOS body in a pocket inside your coat, and the cartridges in a pocket on the outside of your coat. When ready to use, warm the cartridge up with your hand, or ten minutes inside your coat.
- Pre-fill a cartridge or five and take them along with you! Just make sure the extra cartridge(s) stays cool.
O-PHOS Maintenance
The O-PHOS can be maintenance free with proper use. When a cartridge is empty, replace it.
If any dirt, debris, liquid or concentrate finds it way on the body of the O-PHOS, wipe it off with a warm damp cloth.
Protect the cartridges while transporting. Any debris that falls into the cartridges is difficult to remove.
Wrap the O-PHOS’s funnel in paraffin or parchment paper when not in use. This will keep debris away from the sticky interior of the funnel.

What is occurring is that when not in use, the O-PHOS’s cartridge becomes cool enough for the concentrates to solidify. They only become a liquid when heated, so in between uses this liquid re-solidifies, completely blocking the airpaths in the bottom of the cartridge.
Clearing this blockage is easy – Remove the cartridge from the body and hold it in your hand tightly for one minute. Try and make as much contact with the cartridge as you can. This allows your body heat to transfer directly through the metal and aids in softening/melting the concentrate.
After one minute, re-attach the cartridge to the body, and press the button to heat the atomizer. Air should flow right away. If it does not, continue to hold the button down a few more seconds, and the blockage should clear.
Even the titanium coils will need to be replaced eventually. It is the nature of coil atomizers and no metal is immune.
