Like I said when you ask somebody what their best tank is. Its key to know what tanks they have tried.
That puts everything in perspective.
Ive tried all the Kanger Techs, All the iclear clearos. From the 16 to the 30S. That came with the VTR.
Ive tried the single coil and dual coil dripers, Ive tried the Kayfun / Russian close. The Gennys from the iatty mini to the Kraken.
What are the things that define a good tank.
a. Adjustable air flow
b. Adjustable Juice Flow
c. Design and build of the tank and builder.
d. Amount of area covered by coil and design of coil.
Now as to why the Ithinka is the best tank I have used.
First the build. ANd this was my first build. Im sure it will get better with practice.
3.5mm Braided silica wick was used. 4 wicks each 3.5mm in dia. Length 2 Inches long
The 4 wicks where joined inside the ceramic bowl in a X bow design. A single coil was used. 30 gauge 10 wraps.
Total ohms at 3.3 Ohms. The standard NR - R- NR design was used.
The juice return flow was set at max. The juice flow control was at max i.e. you lift the skirt which covers the wicks. The higher you lift the skirt the more wick is exposed. Air Flow control at fully open.
The juice I was vaping. A mixture between RY4 and Irish cream. The Irish cream was a 50-50 mix of Irish cream from TFA and Mount Baker.
The mod was the segeli at 20 watts.
The coil was the latest high tech coil from the USA. Not your FT junk or E Sutta Junk. This is the new high tech coil.
All I can say is who ever tried it. It blew their mind.
I dont think there is another tank out there that have so much wick area sitting in juice. A ceramic cup and this kind of vape.
Very happy with my purchase.
Ps: If your thinking of buying the Ithika. Do your home work. There are 4 vendors selling clones. You want to avoid the FT Ithinka. You want to get the one called the Hercules.
I still like my Kayfun / Russian. but its no match for the ithika.
My rankings now.
1. Ithika
2. Kayfun / Russian
3. Dripper
The rest.
Why the Ithika is the best tank I have ever smoked.
Re: Why the Ithika is the best tank I have ever smoked.
The best part about the adjustable juice flow. Is that I can now smoke pure thick VG and not have any flow issues.
Down to 8 MG and still too much nicotine.
So now only going to smoke zero nic in this tank. Its crazy.
Redid the coil now at 2.2 Ohms.
This is not a tank for amateurs.

Damn it. Now you have me lusting for one
Re: Why the Ithika is the best tank I have ever smoked.
Lust away I lusted for 2 months.
You can forget about driving it on those piddly ego twist bats you will need a mechanical.
Im at 20 watts on the Segeli and its just about keeping up.
Bring your drip tip over nevet time your here and see how it feels to over dose on ejuice.
Once again not a tank for amatures lol. You will go mad building it. And sometimes the build wont work. And you have to start over. So far builds I have tried.
1. Single Coil Single wick.
2. Single Coil dual wick
3. Single Coil 4 wicks.
4. Single Coil 6 wicks.
5. Dual coil with all off the above in parallel and cross bow combination.
6. All of the above but with braided silica 3mm.
Today its on a single coil 32 gauge 8 turns 2.4 Ohms 2mm Silica 4 wicks with double / extra wicks under the coil area only.
2mm silica works well.
The key diff between my FT coil and this USA Kanthal is that the USA Kanthal is very very strong when cold and when hot.
This thing goes thru 4ml / full tank in 30 minutes.
