Your probably right Somo. After I took off the first coil I noticed the wick had already blackened and that was from only few puffs. Could be that too but at least I should have vapor and throat hit. I will try a single coil in the next 30 minutes and will let you all know how it goes. And I'll try a different juice :)

ithaka
the good : vapes at least as good as the odysseus ... full and rich, lots of flavour ... easy to wick, almost perfect to look at
the bad : dualcoil seems to drain battery fast (logcally), and i dont trust the plastic screw for the negative wire
the ugly : i really dont like the top part ... ody was so nice with the rounded part and the screw-in mouth-piece cap ... ithaca looks kinda cheep compared to that.

all in all : i probably gonna sell 1 odysseus ... maybe sell 2 odys and get one more ithaka ... another nice piece of engineering, imeo!

Hello ladies and gents.
The moment you have all been waiting for has arrived :D

Bad news first: I dropped my brand new Provari mini v2.5, green led, yellow carbon fibre skin from over a metre high whilst taking Ithaka off onto hard kitchen floor tiles :mad: :(
It smashed onto the floor really hard and I thought that's the end of it. But, thankfully its working fine and the led screen is unharmed. So far it seems fine and let's hope I ain't damaged it :-(

Good news: first try and it was vaping the same on a 5 wrap at 1.9 ohm coil with vanilla custard and tasted burnt but was better than before and then the coil snapped :-(
Second try, 4 wraps at 1.6 ohm, single coil with two wicks (like Imeos video), this time gorilla juice (vanilla custard improved) and it was amazing. Loads of vapor, great taste if not better than Ody and a great throat hit :vapor: :evil:
Will try again using dual coil
Ithaka won't be biting my ... tonight lol she'll be kissing it as I've given her a nice massage :D

Thank you Imeo for a great sexy atty

I have to agree with somo. Some juices are not meant for dual coils. Thank you everyone and you will love Ithaka and anyone who ain't got one......what you waiting for, a kiss on your ....? In your dreams but Only if your a fit sexy woman lol :facepalm:
Lol sorry, I'll shut up now. It's 02:20 am and I'm just talking out loud in my dreams :)

No worries man. The ProVari is a warrior. Mine got thrown down a hill, bounced off several rocks and landed in a creek. Still using it today. Definitely got scratched up but its working fine. I didnt try to fire it until it dried and got an alcohol bath but thats all she needed. Terrific news on your Ithaka. Hope you get the duals running also in the near future. Cant wait till mine arrives, thats for sure.

Have we had any word on CoV ship dates yet? It's a little frustrating after waiting since December that I could get a used one right now, but no word on my pre-order (at least that I've been able to find) yet.

Feeling your pain my friend. Trying to stay positive for all the folks getting theirs, but really wishing I had mine...

Tried asking Cov but guess everyone is too busy getting ready for vapebash...:facepalm:
Definitely bad timing for the Ithaka wait mixed with vapebash...

would be really nice to know if shipping is still going to move forward even though Bruce and Justin are going to be in Chicago or if we should just relax and not even think about it until next week. Bruce??? It just takes a second to let us know.

Jagelpuff posted somewhere that they were leaving a crew behind to take care of our orders.

Morning everyone. Ithaka is giving me a heartburn :evil:
All good though :vapor:

All the folks who don't have theirs yet please be patient and you will be rewarded :D

As for Jojobo, I wish you had all your Ithaka. But remember, the quantity you are getting, you will be able to set them all up with different setups at once. Just imagine all your setups and that should keep you going till you get your angels lol :toast:

Grants states his custard juice doesn't taste great in a genesis atty. Maybe the dual coils are heating up the custard to a point the taste is spoilt.

I would believe this completely. One of my favorite juices (Caramel Waffle from Tasty Vapor) doesn't really like above 10 watts. And even that blows through coils like nobody's business.

1- Back to Athens Land. My package was waiting for me on my desk. My Ithaka's will have to wait till I get home :D

2- Regarding the "some juices don't like heat" I don't get why is it an issue if you are using the same ohms on a single coil. What I mean is that if a juice tastes best with 2 ohms and 3.7V, 2 coils will give you 1 ohm of total resistance but each one still vaporizes with the same power and the same ampere. I don't get why you are assuming they are heating up more than usual.
