Ithaka official

[Jojobo]

I love the Ithaka on my stealth! It's perfect!!!!!

Awesome setup BillyB. Personally I don't like the look of the GGTS so a Chi is much prettier in my eyes...
But I have to admit I very much like the Stealth, so I suspect I will buy one for my Ithaka

I was wondering this as well because I was hoping to make my GGTS a bit shorter than it is now. I wonder if we could take off the brass part that acts as an adjustable center pin when using it on a GGTS?

you will earn 1,5mm if you do this occu. And yes, you can do it because even if the center post of Ithaka (without this brass moving pin), doesnt have a cut to allow air pass to the atomizer, GGTS has this cut, so its ok

I'm getting really tempted to try to shorten the pin from the GGTS. With the collector tank & GGTS connection, the whole setup is about 7mm taller than the stealth with 510 connection. For what it's worth, I think a "stealth collector tank" would be a good idea. It seems like the height of the 510/901 threads could be removed in a cap with exclusively the GGTS connector. I, for one, haven't connected an "old fashioned" atomizer in over a year.

My first set-up is 3 tanks deep, thirsty bugger.

I used 2 mm silica wick triple folded for the coil only, it just fills the top of the channels with no wick in the channels at all. I crossed both wicks in the X formation. 32ga x 2 at 2 ohms with the basic feed closed. I tried it with the basic feed open full, but that was to much. My e-liquid is 70/30 VG/pg. The MP is just slightly open, and its a great vape. I'm using it with the the 510 base on my C+ mod, the adjustable connector pin is a big plus, I really like it.

To be frank I'd planned to upgrade my Ody's, but might consider getting another Ithaka, I haven't even begun to try all the configurations the Ithaka offers.

The Ody offered so many personal possibilities, and now the Ithaka is another game changer. This going to take a while to really explore all of the options, what's good, and what's really good, choices, choices. I'm very happy to have an Ithaka to enjoy and experience. Thanks for pulling off another home-run Imeo.

You mean the part where you screw in the rebuildable part? Or are you referring to the 510 base with the air control ring?

On Ithaka, the rebuildable part screws in to the basic feeding piece, which then screws into the base. On Ody, the rebuildable part goes directly into the base. So to use the Ithaka base you'd need the basic feeding piece, too. With the 510 base with the air control ring, you'd need to have Ithaka's rebuildable part because it requires a much longer center pin than Ody has

Not sure if I answered your question or not, I've got a massive headache going on right now . . . sorry in advance if that made no sense

You and me both, massive migraine since yesterday. Maybe its in the air.

I'm having feeding issues today:

Bottom Juice Control open--on X wicks
2xs 1.2 ohm coils in X pattern (3mm silica)
almost 100% VG

I basically need to keep the mouthpiece open almost all the way otherwise I get a slight off taste--goes away with opening the main juice control more. When the tank gets low, I can see the wicks are wet, but unless the juice level is high, it tastes a bit dry.

Only had this beast 24 hours--LOVE IT--but maybe someone that runs .6ohm coils can chime in a bit.

I've been vaping like a mad man on my Ithaka. 20 ml so far testing various viscosities and flavors. No leaks, no trouble at all. Consistent vapor and flavor. Like most, I need to reduce my nic per mg.

As for the amount of fluid on my Ithaka with the stock mouthpiece I'm measuring 3.35 ml. This is not including whatever fluid had soaked into the 3mm wicks, nor did I remove mouthpiece cap to top off. Just filled with the main cap removed. I think it'd hold 4ml if topped off.

I haven't polished silverware in many years; Can anyone recommend a reputable brand polishing compound for SS? I'd like to keep my Ithaka shiny! (And possibly make my Terminators look less like crap next to the Ithaka...)

Got my Ithaka today. Great replacement for my Ody. I do have to make 1 negative coment. I like almost all of the connection changes. I love the looks and the dual channels. I think I would have prefered the posative wires to be secured by a nut like on Ody though. I have accidentally pulled the wires off the post a couple times making small changes and while it is easy enough to stuff them back in a nut would have held them a little better. That said I am very happy with my Ithaka.

I do have one question though. My first build was great but ended up higher resistance then I wanted so after 2 tanks I rebuilt. my second build 1 wire light up much before the other. As a matter of fact the second wire would only light up if I held the button for a long period of time. So I rebuilt again and I got the same reaction. I am guessing this is happenind because one of my coils is slightly lower resistance then the other. Can anyone confirm this by chance?

If you x DC two 1.2 ohms that is 0.6 ohms. Bishopheels style. While it can be a great vape it requires the wicks to be very moist all the time. There is a great difference between VG and VG so maybe if your juice is sticker the wick simply cannot feed enough that .6 ohm monster.

If you like your resistance this low you could try more fluid juices, or if that flavor is your favourite add some water (2-4%) to it. That should help.

My juice is very thick. I have only 1 ohm dual but need to have the MP totally open.

That wick has to be very wet. At about the time you sense the taste change, trying cracking the very top cap for a few vapes. This little bit of venting helps a lot.

Thanks everyone....I wasn't sure if I had something else going on.

 

[Alireza355]

Did you take off the trap under your sink and look in there? it's possible it is in there.

of corse I did, but it was gone for good

But I found some o rings in a hardware store

Ithaka is working very good, but the gurgling caused by some liquid getting in the little air hole in the center post is KILLING me... Does anyone have an idea what is happening inside that part that is causing this???

Too much juice being fed...try closing basic feeding and using main feeding only, or close main feeding until it goes away.

There are some "drain" holes in the bottom of the ceramic, the position of the nut determines if they are open or closed. They allow liquid to drain into the bottom and wick back out.

I'm still on my first build, it's a parallel DC @ 1 ohms, normally by now on a new toy I would have rebuilt about 8 times by now but it's working really good. But here's the problem (very little problem), when I refill it, it shows me it's potential for a few hits. Just thinking out loud.

I am getting very good results but I know "better" is ahead

...!!!
I preordered through the italian reseller (without paying in advance), and after Ithaka's arrival we had a month time to buy it before it is put on sale, so I bought it some time after it was available and it arrived only on Thursday.
Today I washed it, torched the ceramic, lubricated all the orings and built a simple setup with 3mm wick, single coil at 1.6 ohm - sitting on provari.
Again: ...!!!
I am amazed. The vapout is thick, dense, full off flavour and reminds of the UFS.
Amazing piece of hardware, now I regret not having ordered two.
....

Imeo, congratulations, this is a significant step forward in rebuildable atomizers.
Hats off.

Ithaka is here with me, still unopened . Cant wait to start playing with it tonight.

Hey everybody!
Vacationing in Florida but Ithaka says its in my mailbox back in New Hampshire. My quit smoking again date has almost arrived!! Need a link to a coil build video so I can learn before I get back on Monday.

Cheers!!
