You got to 'select' your preferred material out of that variety. It doesn't matter which atty it goes into.
I play with Shiseido, Lilly's SnC and CC-Rayon, but use the rayon mostly in all my atties.

yeah I always see you using Rayon.. I need to try that stuff.. I been using mainly the japanese cotton pads.. I just really hate the taste of cotton.. If u get things wicking perfect you won't get it, but a lot of times in rba's you get that cotton taste in the beginning. I have to say though the cotton in the nautilus mini.. either the way that thing wicks or the type of cotton used.. U don't get the cotton flavor in that thing. I have some mesh im going to mess with.. I have a feeling it is going to be tricky.. but I will give it a valiant effort.
The cotton taste is the challenge for some which eventually leads to trial and error with other material as noted. It can be frustrating and I've also felt the pain. I use KGD almost exclusively which I purchase from ebay. For me: no cotton taste, no break in, holds juice like a champ, and wicks great. Produces a great flavor in my vape. I split the pad and then cut to rough size. Then I peel off the other side so both sides have the "fluffy meat" exposed. I only role the tip to insert in the coil. After that it's fluffy fluffy fluffy and sometimes blowing on the cotton will make it more fluffy. Not packed into the base but placed. In the Heron V2 I use a lot of it.
Good luck!
Yeah it is an easy method you showed .. I just did it on my first try and everything is working.. Mesh has a little break in period but its vaping good. I just have to be careful with my draws cause im on a very tight air hole setting.
Just wanted to say 'Howdy' to my GP Family! To our new family members, I say "Welcome the The Family. Welcome to our Asylum".
Still loving my 'X'. Wouldn't vape anything else. Regarding wicking.. I am a KGD fan. Been one, since it came out way back when. Recently, a friend talked me into trying Cotton Bacon. It wicks pretty darn fine.
Hugs and smiles to all!

I just built my first SS mesh build on the Spheroid v4 and it is fantastic. It was incredibly easy and the taste is just wonderful. I decided to use my same ADV eliquid that's in another Spheroid v4 with a KGD build and the difference is discernible. It's a very moist vape, the way I like it and there's no leakage (yet). Great video Q!

What size coil do you build and do you keep the airflow open all the way? I had to stuff some cotton in the slots because it was gurgling on me. But I keep the air flow very tight.
I use 2mm coils in my Spheroid v4s. Unfortunately, the slots weren't blocked enough and I was experiencing some leaking last night. I put my Spheroid standing up on a paper tower overnight and I woke up to find that all of my elqiuid had leaked out. I'm going to try a larger diameter coil tonight and if that doesn't work perhaps a solid wick.
2,0-2,5 mm coil delivers the best flavour in my opinion. 2,0 mm is better.
I am a comic book fan and I found the scenario of Batman vs Superman needed more work regarding their psychological profiles, the film was fantastic indeed.
Hello my GP Family.. I saw my name mentioned. So very cool. Being thought of, how very nice! Yes, I have been a bit stressed with the political environment. It's nuts out there! I am not 'pro' anyone. But, I get so frustrated with people intentionally trying to prevent the process from playing out as it should. Makes a person think, we have absolutely no input to the process. That makes me sad.
Again.. Thanks for thinking about me! That makes me smile. Sending you all love and smiles.
Not only the process of every election, but the whole idea is rigged from the beginning, we don't vote when we need a brain surgeon, or a pilot, but we vote for the destiny of our country ... how absurd!
Much love to you and many hugs
An "If you could take only one mod on a desert island ..." thread was started recently on the Aussie vapers forum. After 2 1/2 years, and despite delving heavily into some beautiful squonkers, my answer is still "My GP Paps-X".
So I just wanted to say thanks again to Perseas and the crew
You're most welcome my dear
Yeah i believe I am using something very close to a 2.5 now.
To the guy with the stainless mesh.. Try putting a little bit of cotton into the slot to block up the hole. That is what I did. I used very little and put it underneath the mesh. I mean you can watch reviews and everything looks so simple and easy but sometimes when you do it yourself you realize you have to tinker with things and find what works for you. If you don't have a juice control option than its basically being controlled by your wick and air flow.. So you have to end up finding the right amount of everything. I will keep trying different things till i get it to where the flavor is as good as the v2.. my main problem with the previous models was that the cotton after a short while would get flimsy and twist up or not wick as well after a couple of tanks. Sometimes the cotton can get caught on the fluff and get spun around when you are screwing in your deck into the tank. I personally would love if those models had a press fitted tank with o rings or something than the screw on threading... But I would imagine it didn't because it really was designed to be used with silica type wick .. I wonder how cotton yarn or readywick etc would work in the hoop format type wicking.

We'd love to offer the Spheroid with push fit tank, but with 16 mm OD and the current design with a lid, there is no room for O-rings around the deck.
I am actually happy that you didn't. The amount of battering my Spheroids take (being the most used outdoors atty) that one feature makes me feel totally safe to be careless about it

Same here
Another thing I found that works good for stainless mesh on the Spheroid v4 when it comes to flooding/gurgling.. Take a very thin needle like a sewing needle and stick it inside one of the outside folds in your mesh wick at the opening and bend the mesh outward to flare out to cover the open gaps. I did this and its not leaking and vaping better than when I stuffed the cotton in there.
As far as the screw in design..Yeah I see your points.. Im just saying for cotton builds I think it would have been better for me personally.. But the v4 makes it a mute point now anyway.

if the cotton is twisting on itself when screwing on the spheroid tube, the tails are too long or the ends need “grooming”. What I mean by grooming is if the tails are extremely fluffy, then the top edges may be all that twist on itself.
Since giving that extra care, I’ve not had it twist on me.
