After watching the video of those parts going together I must say that I agree, the threads of the kit body stop way before the holes in the sides of the feeder ring. Looks like a problem to me also for those converting an Ithaka(clone).
If I get a chance tomorrow will set it up completely and see if this will work.

I polished one of them, after viewing the macro I may do it again. Looks real good in person.
Did you have to sand it, or did you just use polish?

I started with Emory cloth.
Used grey compound then green
I'm going to get some much finer grades of wet paper for next time

Hmm, all I have is mothers mag polish and a Dremel. I'm going to try that and see what I can do. If that doesn't work I guess I'll use some fine grit sandpaper.

You can do it with just polish and a dremel but it takes foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Get some sandpaper on there first and it cuts the time by a significant amount.

I'm not having any luck setting up dual coils. I just made a single coil instead. For whatever reason my negative wire kept breaking after firing it. I assume it was a short but I couldn't find any reason that there would be a short. I'd like to try the premade wires but I can't find them.

The description of the ready wires reminded me a little bit of the Turbo Encabulator.LOL Turbo Encabulator - YouTube
I've been using the kit with a GGTS Ody base, but I tried the Hercules base tonight. You're right - it's too short, exposing the feeder holes.
I might try cutting off the top of the basic feeding part to get rid of the holes... that might work.
(On second thought, no. Someone else can try that.

I don't know if any one mentioned that it's available at FastTech. I would think that Vapor Joe would have posted this RBA. $35.22 Ithaka Adjustable Rebuildable Atomizer (4.0mL) at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
I was reading the discussion on this atty and they are saying it's a Rainbow clone. It doesn't have the glass tank though.

That is not the hercules. That's a ithaka clone made by tobeco. Tobeco's Odysseus clone was horrible.

Thanks, good to know. I found a youtube review by todd, and he says the same thing. Thanks for letting me know.

Does the draw seem tight to anyone else? My airhole is open and it's still a bit too tight.
i noticed the same thing, i think its due to the fact that the center pin has a smaller hole than the ithaka. i bet you can prolly drill it out a hair bigger, not sure how much it would change tho.
I noticed that if you stick a 18G needle through the center post theres a little bit of resistance at the end were you screw the nut. I rotated the needle so that it went all the way through it. its still a tight draw though...

There should be a screw in your parts bag to screw into the end of the positive post to extend it.
There was a guy in the GG thread that plugged the holes with silicone.
And did it cause a leak with the holes exposed? I would think that it would leak like h***

Yes, the contents of the tank quickly drain out the bottom without anything to plug the feed holes. The screw will help the kit's post clear the 510 or GG base, but with those holes exposed... it's just not going to work.
I think you have to plug the holes, shave down the Herc's basic feeding piece or wait for a new version of the kit!
(Or just use it on something else, which is what I'll do.)
