Thank you poppa, you are very kind as always:)

if you have the adjustable air pin inside the mouthpiece or a regular drip tip, you will not face any problem.

In near future I will have those mouthpieces available for all GG atomizers

I wanted to make Penelope as simple as I could. A thin atomizer is bought usually from people that like slim and easy to be made atomizers. Thats only my opinion of course.. Thats why I really believe that Penelope is the easiest by far atomizer to be made. You saw that on my second video after Penelope's first video
Hi Imeo,
Congrats again, what cab I say, you're a genius.

Couple quick questions & comments.
I like:
the pressure relief cuts in the top cap.
The new MP.
The tighter tank cap.
The new adjustable style pin.

Question:
What if I drop the Penelope on its MP end, will it be damaged, bend, or break? I have dropped all the rest to many times, and never had a problem.
next question: in the future will some of these MP features be available for the bigger GG atomizers?
Next: Why not make it a dual coil?

Good morning everyone, I getting back to my Friday morning off work, at home cup of coffee & vape. Taking time for me.

As far as I understand it, you'll be able to control the air on the atty, then further control the air on the AC ring of the mod. Well, if that's the case, you can have it almost push vapor into your lungs or give you the feeling if sucking a lemon through a straw. That's one helluva balance of both worlds. And I'm hoping I understood all that correctly.

it'll definitely be interesting to see how one affects the other. The range should be awesome.

It's funny. My penny's I don't have the issues some have stated. I have learned that when refilling, she likes to be filled a certain way, and then before vaping, she likes to be layed down for a few. Then it's awesome performance.
But obviously, when turning the page over and looking at im something else, I've also experienced issues where many haven't. Go figure.
So I'm definitely eager to compare these two.

Yup. You're right. I got the close it and open it after a few pulls when I use long wicks. I have micro and cotton and haven't had to play with the mp since I made that change.
But honestly, I never considered close it, open it, vape a few and repeat an issue worth banging my head against the wall for. It had become such a habit I found myself waking up in the middle of the night closing and opening the mouthpiece. :)
The move to a short piece of cotton at the top has really put the penny into place.

Penelope's v1 distance from mouthpiece to body was 0,5mm per side. Penelope's v2 distance is 1,5 mm per side, that is 3 times more. Wicking problems are totally eliminated

Bravo Imeo I am sure this will solve the issues I have with my current Penelope. This is great news.

So this is it.
I already have two Pennys and I absolutely love them; in some respects I even regard Penelope as superior to Ithaka, so I'm interested.
I don't know yet if to sell one (one I'll keep for sure) or keep them both.

The way of fixing wires directly derived from Ithaka makes me happy for one main reason: easier mrKrinkle, and I never tried this on Penelope, while it's the only way I rebuild Ithaka.
I'm pretty curious about the new air control, though I was expecting one from the bottom, to speak the truth. The rest of the news we will able to evaluate when we have it in our hands.
Inclusion of an adjustable pin is much appreciated, too; I use Penny on Provari and in fact it can't sit flush on its top cup. Mounted like that, there's absolutely no air flow. In the past i tried to make the pin come out only a little to achieve a somehow tighter draw, but this is not the way to go; in this case the bottom oring doesn't really push into the base and the whole construction is not properly sealed, ultimately leading to leakage from the bottom. The adjustable pin will fix this issue, I suppose.

Anyway: Penelope needs its companion, with elegant look, small dimensions and a "real" air control IMHO. If the electronic part is too difficult to produce then please give us a small mechanical mod to fit Penelope - 1.0 ohm res and I'll be fine, with the most elegant PV on earth in my pocket. I really hope to see Proteus someday...

That said: I'm in, I'll buy one.

Have you tried using two o-rings?

That's very reasonable approach.
No point to make Ithaka same as Penelope just bigger tank.
For this you can always make new Odysseus update version as it was the original
Bigger companion,but the Penelope got now 4ml!

Ithaka as flag ship product is still offer more features as it is,even compare to the new
Atty that start to roll out this last days.(no need to write names)

Just for my self (as I sow Rivernut wrote and I feel the same) I like Ithaka "device feel"
With all the many option to choose from,and how it can all be tinkered and hand adjust,
in a way that if somehow I will get fully close platform with prefect performance I
Will not enjoy this as I enjoy the Ithaka.

Even in analog days you cannot transform a pipe'ish tinkered to simple analog
It would have not had the fun for him.

Somewhere along the quest for better vape and better mods,and ending up GG's
I got transform and turn liking the fiddle and adjustment
on the positive side on different levels.(and I'm not the only one)

For now I don't see my self turning 5 clicks only
and screwing 4-6 ml carto's even if they will vape somehow with better design
The same quality of Ithaka .
I think all pipe users will feel at home using GG devices.
