    Ithaka official

    *Sacrilege!* Nah, just kidding :) I decided to go with Doolak's 3mm wick as well. Performing really well, but I think I'll remove a few strands to 2.5mm and un-weave it. No dry hits at all, but I am having to open up the fluid control(MP) quite a lot. I can see that the wick that came...

    After months of waiting the Ithaka has arrived

    I've been mainly vaping on two Terminators (Chinese Ody clones) and Vivi Novas for the most part. Once I found out the Terminators were just cheap copies of a much better atty (the GG/Odysseus) I decided I wanted to give an original a try. Since I knew that getting an "Ody" would be difficult...

    Ithaka official

    I've been vaping like a mad man on my Ithaka. 20 ml so far testing various viscosities and flavors. No leaks, no trouble at all. Consistent vapor and flavor. Like most, I need to reduce my nic per mg. As for the amount of fluid on my Ithaka with the stock mouthpiece I'm measuring 3.35 ml...

    Ithaka official

    As you know Imeo, I've been vaping on an Ody imitation (Terminator) which *was* the best vape I'd ever experienced. Move over Terminator, the real atty as arrived! I thought the Ithaka would be worth the money. Now I KNOW it is! I'm very impressed with the overall quality craftsmanship and...

    Hmm, that's a good question. Anyone know?

    Psoriasis and PG or VG content?

    I know this is way off topic: I have found that ingesting Bragg's apple cider vinegar (or any vinegar with "the mother" as they say)as well as topical application has made my psoriasis much more bearable for me. Not on any open lesions of course! That really burns. It really helped me with...

    Terminator/Nautilus/Choddy/Oddy Clone Pics, Tip,Tricks and Quirks

    Depends on the fluid/flavor. I DIY so sometimes when I switch flavors there's a lingering taste from the previous fluid. Some fluids will gunk up the coils pretty quickly. Dry burning puts an added strain on the nr>R<nr connections but burns off most of the gunk.

    PG and VG

    VG doesn't seem to diminish flavor, but rather the PG brings it out with most flavors. imho

    Psoriasis and PG or VG content?

    I agree with Legosaurus's comment. I've noticed no change in my condition even though I hadn't smoked for two years before I started vaping. I used to vape 100VG and later went to various mixes containing PG. I've been a vaping for almost a year now. I have noticed that certain flavors if...

    Terminator/Nautilus/Choddy/Oddy Clone Pics, Tip,Tricks and Quirks

    I go though 4-6 mls per day. Been using the same 1.4 ohm awg32 A-1 for about 14 days so far. I dry burn every 8-12 mls. Fingers crossed that it holds up! :)

    Ithaka official

    Few things excite me anymore. Your creation does Imeo :) The care and quality that has gone into the ithaka is rare to see in today's "cheap and fast" world. I wish you all the success and innovation that you and your company deserves!

    Terminator/Nautilus/Choddy/Oddy Clone Pics, Tip,Tricks and Quirks

    See my post #1295 of this thread which is how I do it. Alternatively have a look at Navy_Lifeguard's method. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/rebuildable-atomizer-systems/358343-terminator-nautilus-choddy-oddy-clone-pics-tip-tricks-quirks-130.html?#post9166770

    Terminator/Nautilus/Choddy/Oddy Clone Pics, Tip,Tricks and Quirks

    This is how I do it. If you still have fluctuations with this method then your NR<R>NR connection isn't solid. I use .999 silver and roll it flat with a drill bit, but that's not absolutely necessary.

    I vape predominanly - Flavors

    Too many to mention, but I always return to just VG/Nic. That ever so mild sweetness of VG just calls me back...

    Max % of distilled in 100% VGA?

    I've discovered that over time water can skew the taste of some flavor extracts. As for percentage, I've tested as high as 20 percent. I still vape just VG with 14% distilled water occasionally (no flavoring). Works okay for me and gives some TH. anything over 7 percent seems to be considered...

    PG vs VG

    VG will produce the lots of vapor, and has it's own, very mild sweet taste if the temp is right. PG add a throat hit and is often used to loosen up VG. Also PG brings out the taste of flavors generally much better than VG. Adding a small amount of distilled water will also loosen up VG and give...

    Old smoker/New Vapor

    Welcome to ECF! Quite a learning curve involved, but well worth the time IMO. YouTube is your friend when it comes to "hands on" tests of just about everything vape related. Saves money and frustration :)

    vivi nova question

    Not to steal the thread as well (too late?) hemp will take a bit more of a beating than cotton. PBusardo has his own site dedicated to all thing vape. I highly recommend you check out his opinion when considering a purchase. I don't agree with all his opinions, but he's solid.

    what happen to the vapor

    If WorkforMe's suggestion doesn't do it for ya, also try vaping with the bottom of the T3 elevated slightly higher than the mouthpiece until vapor appears once again. Careful not to tilt it too far as hot fluid could potentially burn you.
