ithaka gets hot

[roquien]

Hello guys! I recently bought an Ithaka at Fluidvaper! While using it, I noticed that the mouthpiece,body and base gets warm. I took it apart out of curiousity and found out that it's missing the plastic insulator. Now my question is, is it safe to keep on using it. My ssggts and battery doesnt get hot.

Hi,

is this part?

If is so, do not use it without that piece, you can substitute with an small o-ring (for example).

That piece isolates the positive pin from the rebuildable housing (negative).

It's the black plastic that you screw at the center post.

I noticed my Ithaka didn't have it when i watched Imeo's Ithaka update video.
Thanks for the reply.

Ah, I see,

Imeo said that part is not needed anymore, so you are good.

if your battery and GGTS doesnt get hot, its ok roq.

What resistance you put on your Ithaka?

 

[roquien]

1ohm. Thanks again guys. I can finally enjoy it w/o worry.

if you chain vape then the mouthpiece gets a little warm roq. Nothing to worry about. Its because its metal and close to the resistance
