You happen to have any pics of your wicking in a kayfun/Subtank mini or similar? I still feel like I may be leaving too much on the tails and am not sure if it's better to have the tails from the top or bottom of the wick.
I don't have one but its the same concept. Do it like this.
I'd say that one was around 30% tail. For the stm you could go as far as 10% probably.
