Ithaka official

[subver]

Just something I've wondered: Is the o-ring around the part that has the basic feeding slots supposed to be loose? Mine is pretty loose... it doesn't seem to be causing any flooding or anything (although I've been having a weird wet o-ring around the center post.. no leaking though) - just didn't know if it was supposed to be tight or loose.

I actually don't think I have any spare Ithaka o-rings either.. which reminds me I should go get some! CoV is out unfortunately.. does anyone else have a spare set they could sell me?

That o ring is not actually necessary sub.

Received my 2nd Ithaka, today. Why would I expect anything different from the 1st one? They are both perfect.

Received my first GG product today. After some initial flooding of my ithaka its working great. Must say my kayfun is going to get jealous. One question though what is this part? Like a threaded insulator or something. Came as an extra piece.

its a smaller nut to replace the nut inside the ceramic for people that get this "gurgling" like effect with the other one and this fixes that. So youre replacing this part with that one...

Ithaka- Center Post Top Nut

Oh. I see. That must be this gurgling that keeps having me think its flooding?

yeah its really not flooding tho. Its just the original nut being too big which makes the juice trapped to the sides or something like that. I forgot how Imeo explained it but that new nut should definitely fix it. It did to mine give it a shot

 

[villarino1k]

the reason why i say its not really a flood is because nothing ever comes out of the 510 pin.

They are perfect, I also have two. Funny we seem to have the same taste throughout the thread.

 

[Idaholandho]

... how do you know?

The same way I know. I do it correctly and still have spares

 

[proximo.jm]

I love it !!!!

Hahaha . . . Well, great minds do think alike.

Yep. Gurgle is gone. Thanks for the help. And thanks to Imeo for including the smaller nut. The gurgling would've driven me nuts.

What exactly causes the gurgle? I am still using the original taller nut and have not experienced any gurgle. I do keep the auto feed closed and open and close the juice control as needed.

 

[imeothanasis]

some times and for some reason, the liquid while it blows up, goes inside the center post and you experience a noise like gurgling xtreme

Ya this was my first time setting up my ithaka. I closed the auto feed channels from the start and was starting with a single coil set up. Followed every direction I could find to the T. Can't remember ever seeing anything about the taller nut though. But within a few minutes I was gurgling like a flooded carto. Took it apart, cleaned it all out, double checked all the connections, filled it back up and within a few minutes there was the gurgle again. Changed to the short nut and been chain vaping all day. Hasn't gurgled since. Using 30/70 pg/vg juice. Guessing for some reason juice was getting right into that taller nut and into the air intake. Guess I could've tried arching the coil up and away a bit to give it more clearance but the smaller nut seems to have solved the problem. Loving this atty though. Glad I managed to get ahold of one. Better vape than the Kayfun imo and that's just on a single coil.

It does not gurgle that much (when it gurgles) with the long center post nut, maybe the center post was loose and you tighten it when installing the small nut.

Any way, good to hear you solved the gurgling problem on your Ithaka

I will install the short center post nut on my Ithakas and will try to use the longer ones in Odysseus and Penelope (just to experiment), I think it could be a good addition to both atomizers.

 

[MikeK0416]

is this the nut (COV website) you are alluding to? Is that the old or new short version?

 

[villarino1k]

That's the old one
