Hi Imeo, yesterday my Ithaka arrived home, I was out of town, so until today that I can make the 3.4 ohms dual "X" coil with my Ithaka, so this baby is amazing, the flavour is the best, but the TH is too much for me then I'm thinking to make some liquid with 1mg nicotine and only VG, because I always use 75% PG and 25% VG with 3mg nicotine.

So my Ithaka is using 2 coil X at 1.7 ohms and works great, so thank you again Imeo, as I always said YOU ARE THE BEST AND ITHAKA IS THE BEST ATOMIZER EVER.

Thanks again, Cheers

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. :facepalm:

Hi, I use 2mm Ekowool and is perfect

I had only a problem with Ithaka : yesterday the negative pole has melted me :-(
Can I change it ?

Gotta love how parts between Ithaka and Odysseus can be swapped.

On the right is mini Ithaka!

Yes you can but you have to use Ody's mouthpiece too poppa and it will look a little short on Ithaka. Ithaka has a 4mm longer body
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?

Ithaka is 4mm longer than Ody, Long. Maybe it looks bigger for some reason but it isnt.
GGTS and Stealth will be ready in about 1,5 month as I see it:)
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.

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. :D

Why would you want to do that? The pin is made loosely adjustable so that it turns and ithaka would sit flush on the mod.

Ithaka has a even beter taste Vapor. You will see by yourself soon:)
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.

Why you try "magical" wicks when you have the magic already in your hands buddy? My wick is what you need buddy:)

Thats the purpose buddy. If the pin doesnt go in then Ithaka will not sit flush on your mod. It was not an easy job to make pin go in but we manage to make it like this:)

Thank you very much fix, I am very glad that you are really happy with Ithaka:)

Thats not possible just. When connection is established then there is no way to lose contact. Except you unscrew Ithaka and screw it again on mod
When screwed in a mod, the adjustable part screws in also and loses contact with the mod positive pin because the thread turn in the same direction.

Yup that happens when I unscrew and screw back in to mod. Not really an issue.

Crazy this Ithaka I keep on rebuilding new wick/wire combinations as experiment even if current set up is already vaping great. I wish I had a bunch of Ithakas to build! :D

Adjustable contact pin is pain for me as well. I have to unscrew the contact about 2mm out and then screw on Provari to get connection. And I don't have this connection everytime, sometimes needs 2-3 repeats to get it. I fixed that issue with piece of plumber's teflon tape on top of the contact thread. Adjustable contact is moving tight now and it's easier to get connection now.
