Bish's video was on the real Ithaka - It's a smaller replacement SS nut that holds the center post to the housing that contains the ceramic. It is meant to prevent gurgling.

I just got the Hercules from Stormy's Cellar a few days back... its the Rainbow Heaven clone and it was $90. Its awesome and the build quality is impressive. The finish on the Hercules is brushed and the FT one definitely looks chrome plated. I highly doubt FT got ahold of these for that price... I'm almost certain these are Tobecco clones.
Facts people ! Fatcs !
No suppositions ! => Conducting to misinformation and to the bad reputation e-cig can have ...
Does someone who have the FT one can tell about this device ?
And personaly I don't care if it comes from RH or Tobecco or Playskool if it vapes good.
I had a Line clone and a mini-DID clone from RH times ago. They were crap !
Line clone leaked and was really poor quality
Mini-DID clone was chromed brass
Got the Hercules, and I'm happy with it. Full SS, awesome build quality, 100% leak-prrof, and a real delight to vape.
Company can (and have to) improve to meet new customers and they know it. So "chinese quality" can improve ! Rainbow heaven had proven it.
But it has to be tested.
So personally I'm waiting for facts from someone who bought the ones FT is selling.
Anything esle is stupid ignorant ....-chat to me
You can tell that just by looking at a photo ? Especelly on those, where the finish seems spotless ?
Respect mate !
ithaka=80.4 grams
hercules=78.3 grams
FT unknown brand ithaka clone = 80.2 grams
Heavy for chrome-plated brass ...

Ok, Im going to clear a few things up over what people are saying here...
1) The oddy clone from rainbow vs tobeco. The only difference is the ml capacity. One has a spare stainless steel tank and one doesn't. They BOTH work fine. I own the tobeco oddy and it's great. Does what it's supposed to - great threading, both stainless steel, identical ceramics etc. I've also tried the rainbow oddy. The only difference is the ml capacity and different knurling around the mouth piece.
2) The photo of the FT ithaka is of mirror finish. You won't be getting a mirror finish Ithaka from FT. It will be brushed stainless steel like ALL the clones are. Is FT using a real ithaka in the photo? No, the top part is different compared to a real ithaka.
3) Rainbow Ithaka vs Tobeco Ithaka - Identical parts between the two, once again the knurling is different on the rainbow ithaka. Tobeco is even giving 3 extra ithakas for FREE when you order 20. Rainbow still has an MOQ of 50. There is no point even comparing differences because the only difference is the knurling on the air folow control. The rest is identical.
4) Is FT selling Tobeco ithakas? No. You'll know the tobeco packaging when you see it, it comes in a white box which says 'Together best Cooperation'
5) Do we still want to see a picture of the FT ithaka? YES! Post a picture.
6) Is FT ithakas copper? NO, lol! its stainless steel and you can't expect EVERY ithaka to be the same weight. Just because they said 80.2g doesn't mean they're all going to be 80.2g.
7) Are you dumb enough to think tobeco makes chrome plated ithakas? By the looks of the posts, yes.
Does tobeco make mirror finish Ithakas? No, Here are pictures of the Tobeco Ithakas.

Now before Silly people post and say "Oh but look tobeco does make mirror finish" Look here!
This has been confirmed by tobecos manager and my 2 sales reps. The MIRROR finish Ithaka is of an ORIGINAL ITHAKA! They used this to make the 1:1 Clone of the ithaka!
Picture of REAL Tobeco Ithaka with packaging and improved center pin!

More questions to answer..
Is paying an extra $65 for a rainbow heaven clone worth it? You're kidding yourself if you think so! The clones are all 1:1 clones.
How much does Rainbow Heaven Ithakas sell for? $35 each MOQ of 50.
Do you get any free rainbow heaven clones with your order? No. Only tobeco is doing this as a summer promotion. Buy 20 get 3 free, Buy 50 get 12 free.

Just got mine. This is a very high quality piece of gear. Just vaped and hits like a freight train. Will definitely have to drop my nic 6%. I still need to fiddle, and there's a lot to fiddle with, but I couldn't be happier. Glad I didn't listen to the naysayers. Way better than my RSST. I would have been happy with this one at $100. Very nice. My two cents for now.
Yeah, double coils a 1.7 Ohms. Very nice. A monster too. 23mm at tank, 24 mm at AFC. Really amazing piece of work.
