Ithaka official

[RiverNut]

Guys, you will notice that adjustable pin of Ithaka doesnt tarnish even if its made of brass. Its a special alloy that I put on Ithaka because Ithaka had to be perfect

Is this special alloy going to be the new material for all of the GGTS contact parts package?

 

[imeothanasis]

ok buddy, I will make more. I think you are right

Imeo I think 100-200 stainless steel "windows" would not be enough, I plan to use my Ithaka with its clear window, but I for sure will buy the stainless steel one that hopefully I won't use, but it will make me feel good knowing that I have an unbreakable one, just in case.

Fore sure, if you make ss windows for Ithaka, almost every Ithaka owner will want one.

Maybe a better number would be 2000 - 3000

No River, not yet buddy. The brass pack will have the regular brass.
This new alloy is very expensive. Imagine that it costs exactly 4 times more than SS and its not easy machinable.

Me too, I want to use pluid in my Ithaka when it arrives. Hopefully that will be tomorrow.

Nothing yet grab. I will let you know when it will comes here. Thank you very much for sending me the pluid to test on Ithaka. I hope that Ithaka will handle this liquid.

Good afternoon Imeo, Does the Ody standard tank fit and is it a similar height to the Ithaka tank parts? Maybe people would prefer the solid 1 piece Ody style tank on their Ithaka?

Vaping Ithaka now. Great atomizer, just gotta get use to how much bigger it is compared to ody or peny. Ody and peny may still have to be my out and abouts for now.

So far I have only tried single coils. 1 coil, about 1.5ohms, with 3.5mm wick going straight across the channel, and then bringing 4 strands to the other channels. Vaped ok, but coil because I am guessing the air was not passing over the coil

Second coil, single again, about 1.3 ohms, 3.5 mm silica going diagonal across channels, again brought 4 strands of silica to the other channels. Better, vape slightly warmer.

Not sure what my next build will be, single coil with two wicks, or dual coil with parallel or X style.

If I do parallel dual coils do the coils have to touch?

Also, unrelated question, when will more stealths and/or ggts come to COV? Really would like to make this my first mechanical.

Does it happen to be Rhodium or Palladium?

So on an impulse I decided to pre order an ithaka as my first gg purchase. I mostly use genesis attys but I thought I would give gg a try. Long story short I got sick of waiting and picked up an Odysseus in the classifieds and I must say I am impressed with the flavor. The Odysseus just got me more excited for the ithaka. I just got my shipping confirmation from cov and I can't wait to get it.

Welcome to GG!

Odysseus is great, my two are my go to and is what I go out and about with. I can't wait for Ithaka!

will running dual coils lower resistance like in a genesis?

Dual parallel coils need to be pushed against each other according to Imeo, so the air will flow around both coils. Try the X style first though (two 3 ohm coils for 1.5ohms)
I don't know how long it will be before COV has them but Imeo is making GGTS and Stealth right now so keep your eyes peeled.

For those who wants all steel ithaka tank...

Steel tank from Ody.

 

[RiverNut]

will running dual coils lower resistance like in a genesis?

The total resistance of a dual coil is half the resistance of the individual coils...if that's what you're asking.
so two 2ohm coils will equate to 1ohms total resistance.

That is, thank you very much

Thanks River. I though he had mentioned that he was making more ggts and gg stealth. May have to do some looking to see if I can get my hands on one, which route to go.

Yeah, may need to bring back out the 32 gauge for the dual coils rather than 30 gauge, 30 may take to many wraps.

Ithaka also is pretty in a see-through dress!

 

[Amirite]

Has anyone had success wrapping a 2mm Ekowool wick for the Ithaka? I did a single coil x-wrap with the premade wire and the juice control is almost wide open but I keep getting dry hits? Maybe Ekowool is not the magical wick I had hoped it would be? Good thing I just bought 15 meters of it.

Thanks and I just got a trade for my first ggts. It's an older one serial 106. I can't wait to get that plus my ithaka.

 

[justinred]

Imeo. Would it be possible to make the threading of the adjustable positive 510 pin in reverse on next release? With the current threading, the adjustable brass pin goes in when ithaka is tightened on a mod.

Edit: Found a solution.

My shipping status from esmoke guru still hasnt updated in 8 days. Cant wait for my ithaka

Don't worry, Greek postal service often shows its tide up in Athens, but the mailman drops it at your doorstep. Lol
