** All the atties mentioned in this post are clones ... No apologies ... Just saying **
i'm now seriously bored of the ITHAKA ... The res / non res wire thing and the erratic performance has just turned me right off .... i absolutely love my kayfun 3.1 and Taifun GT ...
I know a few months ago there was a conversion kit made to turn the ITHAKA into a Kayfun type attie .... It seems a real shame to waste what is a nice piece of engineering so I'd love to get my hands on one of those conversion kits and start using my Ithaka again ... Any suggestions ?

Erratic performance? ... I have got one of them and am so impressed with the faultless performance that I have a second one winging it's slow way to me.

Mark ... Thanks for that ... If I'd have bought an orig ithaka I could see that would be worth it ... But at twice the price of the clone I just can't justify that ..€68 is a lot of dosh ... Appreciate your help ... I guess I'm trying to do the A1 vaping experience on a budget ... And it isn't always possible
And Freefrom ... Yes , I have found it to be erratic ... To the point that it's now just chucked in the vaping spares box ... Love the kF3.1 and TaifunGt so much I can't be bothered with it ... Hence trying to find a cheap conversion

I'm sure someone will clone the adapter kit, but it's only a few weeks old So give it a month or two.
i have the genuine article and find the GG price a bit steep. As I invested in a zapper I'm quite happy to make my own wires and can make pairs of micro coils for it. The conversion is really Best suited to single coil.

Mark , I have a whole bunch of pre-made wires ... I'm sure it's operator error but I just struggle to get the bloody thing to work ... It may have something to do with my magneto going nuclea and boiling shit out of it and maybe ruining the ceramics ... Either way .. I'm done with it ... It's got such nice externals I'd just like to find a way to use it without using the ceramic internal build Thanks for the advice mate

Hence trying to find a cheap conversion I'm not knocking the Taifun or the Kayfun mate ... I have them both and the Russian 91% and they are all great atties ... just saying that I have had no issues with the Ithaka which has been leak, gurgle and dry-hit free for me and imho produces better flavour that all the others ... pluses for me are the juice feed and air flow controls.

I have the Kayfun conversion kit & it works very well indeed, easy Kayfun coiling with added bonus of juice control, filling or balancing tank pressure & wicking not so much of an issue with this. Don't know if it fits the Ithaka though, there's a few on here that have these so hopefully someone will be able to tell you more. There was one in the classies a while back, don't think it sold so it might be worth putting up a wanted add in the classies.

Thanks 300.. Freefrom ... I used to love my Ithaka and do appreciate its qualities..... I fear I've ruined the internals when my magneto went mad ... Not worked properly since ... Will try the classies

They look like Oddy clones to me. Don't know if that'd work in an ithaka.

Yeah, I think it was designed and built by a polish guy and they only made limited numbers
